What Would You Do? ~ Written for Stevie Nicks (Demo)

http://www.facebook.com/candyappleblue

Here is a song that we wrote for the one and only... Stevie Nicks. It was inspired by The Wild Heart & The Rock A Little albums. We had always hoped to get this demo to Stevie but we never could.

On the autumn night that we wrote this song, we felt we actually channeled in the energy of Stevie Nicks herself! With the window open, a candle lit, one drum machine and an old vintage synthesizer by our side the song came to us very quickly. The lyrics of the song are most certainly bewitching.

After we demoed it, we knew this would be perfect for Stevie! We tried many times to get this demo to her but to no avail. So here we are after all of these years still with this little demo in our hands.

Perhaps through the magic of the internet, we might be able to get the chance now for Stevie Nicks to actually hear this song and perhaps consider it for her new album!

The song itself has a bit of a fan base thanks to DJ Shawn of Pittsburgh Pa including it on his mixed Stevie Nicks rarities cds.

Stevie we love you! Has anyone ever written a song for you? Yes Stevie, we have.

~ Sibling Songwriters ~ Carly & Hoyt Emerick better known as CANDY APPLE BLUE

BTW: We would LOVE to hear what other Stevie fans think of this song.

It was our innocent hope that by some miracle divine intervention that this song would magically find a home on "In Your Dreams" her new 2011 studio album. But once again it just sits here waiting for it's number to be called.

(At the special request of a Stevie Nicks YouTuber here are the lyrics. :) ~ Thank you for your sweet comments!

What Would You Do?

(Verse 1)
Could it be your secrets are a little less kept?
Could it be the darkness or a woman that you can't forget?
Could it be the answer is there and is waiting for you?

(Verse 2)
You're the only echo in the stillness of the dawn.
Could it be the magic of waiting for the fall is gone?
Isn't that the reason, an excuse that you're willing to use?

(Chorus)
So what would you do if she comes crawling back to you?
Could you face her now? Would you fake a smile?
Or would you tell her the truth? What would you do?
What would you do? What would you do?
What would you do?

(Verse 3)
Suddenly the phone rings, in an instant then you know,
that shes back to haunt you but you never really let her go.
Now the sun is fading and the moon shines a light on the truth.

(Verse 4)
Can you heed the warning of a frozen kiss goodbye?
That's the way she left you but you never knew the reason why.
She broke the mirror and the seven years are just about through.

(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental Bridge)
(Repeat Verse 1)
(Repeat Chorus)

Ahhhh-a-ahhhhh ~ What would you do
if she knocked right on your front door baby?
Ahhhh-a-ahhhhh ~ What would you do
if she wrote a song about missing you?
Ahhhh-a-ahhhhh What would you do?
She'd love to see you too.
Ahhhh-a-ahhhhh What would you do?
Would you pretend that you never knew?

Beautiful song, send it to Silver Springs in Scottsdale. Her cousin is there everyday.She could give it to Steph~ it is powerful, What would She Do? iIt reminds me of her concert at Red Rock Colorado.

She sings, " IFYOU KNOW TELL HER , TELL HER NOW!!! "

This comes like 25 years too late. In the 80s this could have been quite the hit...

We are very proud that our little song now has almost 20,000 YouTube hits... it's like 'The Little Engine that Could'... Now if only the universe would point this song in Stevie's direction. Thank you guys so much for all the kind words and for believing in 'What Would You Do?' :)
