she wrote the song so she can sing it anyway she wants! what you are hearing here is emotion because it means something to her in a way that we cannot understand!
I heard them about a year ago and thought she sounded great,until I heard a version like this from the 70's, and then you realize that although her voice still sounds good its not the same as in the 70's and 80's.Still a nice job though
What I enjoy about Stevie Nicks is that she is often out of tune (I've only found one version I enjoy more by southernfolkrocr). For instance, I can't imagine enjoying a version of this by celine dion.
@pindraak I'm pretty sure this is late rumours touring. I saw the tour and she was sounding like this because she was exhausted and was developing nodes from road burnout of the white album where they played 250 days out of 365. Rumours wasn't much easier. And for Tusk ('79) Lindsey already had his weird New Wave Polly Bergan spit curl hairdo, not the wild main and beard here.
This looks more like something from around 1980 or so, at the beginning of Nicks going solo. The hairstyle is not 1977, and the lazy, worn way she is phrasing sounds much more initial solo career.
This is how the song should sound! For all those kids born in the 80's & 90's... you missed out on one of the best decades of music - the 70's. Albeit... you get to enjoy MTV and Music Videos....and lots of different versions of remakes.
I love how you explained this song. Lindsey seems to be a big ol mean muse for alot of Stevie's best songs. I love Lindsey~don't get me wrong and I think he is very handsome but from what Ive read, back in the day, he could work on his people skills a bit~lol
I remember this song, dreams, rihanna, were my ultimate favs as a 70's child..but when i heard lil lies oh yeah!! I love fleetwood mac and i love stevie nicks..that song gypsy is great i just cant find a version on here that i like alot!!
the early versions of this song are my fav,her voice is still great,its just she so raw.love you stevie,you influenced my life in ways youll never know.love you always stevie
This sort of thing has a long history. In 1976 someone wrote a letter to a rock magazine in AUstralia asking whether Paul McCartney had been in a band before Wings.
1) "This Is For You Daddy" are part of the song's official lyrics
2) She's said "This Is For You Daddy" in many live performances.
3) Landslide is my favourite song from any artist of any time period and any genre of music. I've met Stevie 5 times and the very first time I met her in the 70's I asked her the meaning behind the song.
I just wanted to clear something up -- this was written by Stevie for her father when he was in the hospital. She stated in several interviews that she wrote Landslide while in the hospital waiting room. In a live performance when her father was in the audience, Stevie said, "This is for you Daddy."
Stupid YouTube is acting up... hopefully my final point to my reply makes it to the commments list... 1, 2, 3 and here's my final point:
& 4) The description on this video page is closer to being accurate than the hospital theory... although in HER OWN WORDS she described the song as a reflection of her love life and decision to pursue music as a career. Her father wasn't mentioned once and I've never seen it mentioned in an interview.. I've seen many!!
@cuvideos Perhaps in some way it is for her dad, because he offered to pay for going to college, so she could have a real career, during this time while she and L. were very poor.
No she didn't write it in the hospital waiting room. She was in Aspen and wrote it the day before his Mayo surgery that was done in Mayo in Minnesota.
very cool.. thanks for posting this... Nowhere on this plantet could they play that song today and and have that many people in the audience keep there damn mouth shut and just listen and enjoy!! thanks again.
The song is touching, displaying how *Stevie's simple poetry, while accompanied by the familiar, comfortable acoustics from Buckingham's guitar, can exhibit an overwhelming feeling of emotion that comes from within the heart. *'
Tone deaf?! i've been a musician for over 15 years and i CAN HEAR when people are off key, and this is NOT! You obviously do not know much about music or singing and you can't hear when someone is improvising in key vs. when someone is out of key. Please please do not talk about things when you don't know about them.
Cool footage. It sounds kind of..off here compared to her singing it later. I learned of Nicks after hearing through some Smashing Pumpkins songs and came upon their cover of Landslide. It's pretty cool. I think I might sing it for my concert.
anbody but me notice that she sounds totally tone-deaf in this???? she can't carry a tone in a wheel barrow...very poor performance, by a wonderful singer..I've heard her do MUCH better in other versions..sad
Tone Deaf? Are you crazy? She has the best ear in the industry. She hits every note right on the mark. Turn up your speakers and give it a listen one more time....it's perfect...every note.
I haven't seen what comment you're referring to you, but the first thing I noticed was that she was out of tune hear. Even the best of performers have bad days. She sounds exhausted.
@kerrgal I think this version is very, very good. It isn't a carbon copy of the recorded version but her singing is fabulous here. Beautiful timbre in her voice.
@weatherednboston the prob when people make those kind of observations is that they cannot understand that she MADE IT THAT WAY ON PURPOSE. you are correct, the has one of the best ears in the industry to this day. Stevie only has critics because they cant do what she does.....create magic with her voice. :)
Don't listen to NECROFEELATTACK2. That fucker has been insulting Stevie for weeks. Besides, she sucked off dogs, not hogs. Pigs are disgusting! Stevie woud NEVER do that! Also, she only wore her colostomy bag on Thursdays. She ate Mexican buffets on Thursdays and she needed the bag to take on the extra digested beans, rice, tacos, burritos, chimi's, enchiladas, cheese dip, nachos, huevos rancheros, chili colorado, fajitas, fried ice cream, chalupas, taco salads, chimichurris, guacamole...
is this the japan concert of landslide? because i just saw a video posted by someone else that was almost the same but the footage looked alittle different. does anyone know if there are two different version's of the same live recording?
since the age of 17 when i was gifted the Buckingham Nicks album, my first glimpse of Stevie, this is reminiscent of the impact she had on me and still does. after attending over 100 concerts,countless albums & tapes, mesmerized i remain at the age of 50. when Lindsey sat on stage steps, the highlight had arrived. "Landslide,"(sang thru tears, eye contact, avoidance, etc.) told all. we became a part of their ever-changing connection. they let us into a special place... their hearts. peace.
