Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen (Official Music Video) Reaction/Review

[@ronniebeavers9222]

Gwen is human ,Stevie is something on a completely different level!

[@michaelgilbert197]

FACTS!!! :)

[@lynedwards6714]

Yes 🙌

[@damienhickman4172]

SHE Is GODDESS

[@michaelgilbert197]

Biz, You NEED to see, "Rhiannon" Midnight Special 1976 performance!!! Stevie goes OFF in that one and all 5 members of Fleetwood Mac shine.... PLEASE try to do it ASAP!! You WON'T regret it!!! And I will ....... EAT MY WORDS if you don't agree!!! ;) ;) EDIT: As far as the Stevie/Gwen Stefani comparison.... I see similarities for SURE so, I get where you're coming from. I ADORE Gwen as well, but I'm not ready to say she's the "Stevie" of the '90's. I don't think anyone could EVER come close to Stevie (aka: "White Witch"). She's ethereal.... basically the female equivalent to Robert Plant. They aren't just Legends, they are "GODS" in the Rock world.... nothing can beat that! IMO.... **** In NO way, am I saying that Fleetwood Mac as a whole is "GOD" status. But, Stevie.... YES!! As further proof of that, Stevie Nicks is the ONLY woman to EVER be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame TWICE!!! Once with Fleetwood Mac and once for her Solo career...... That screams "GOD" status to me..... :)

[@Pathfinder197]

Truth! Though I think Tina Turner and Carole King very recently joined her as the only other women inducted into the RRHoF twice. Stevie was also the only member of FM on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 greatest songwriters of All Time. That Rhiannon performance on The Midnight Special was epic. Another live Stevie FM performance worth checking out is Sisters of the Moon from the Mirage tour in '82 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmLOd2h-qLqqbpY). A whole lot of band and personal drama seems to play out there but Stevie gives a powerful performance and at one point essentially scats, sings in tongues or just sings the lyrics too fast for mere human ears to follow, but she never misses a beat and then just twirls away. And Stevie singing The Wild Heart backstage at a photo shoot in '81 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWPVgJtsmaiql9E) is essential viewing for any Stevie fan - new or old.

[@camri98]

Yesssss! To both of you!

Yes EVERYONE was in love with Stevie❤️👍

[@blemelin]

Stevie Nicks was the first woman rocker who let her really feminine side show and still wanted to rock like the boys. And she succeeded, despite a lot of men who were threatened by that. She's one of -- if not the only -- major rock stars who has had a long-term successful career in a band as well as a thriving solo career. Even Mick Jagger failed at that.

[@joetspaulding]

Robert Plant?

[@dvsreed]

Stevie's real name is Stephanie Lynn Nicks, but "Stevie" fits her very well

[@brendaotoole4012]

Only woman in the Rock and roll hall of fame twice. For Fleetwood Mac and her solo career💛 leather and lace with don Henley from the eagles and stop dragging my heart around with tom petty. Also destiny’s child sampled this in Bootylicious.

[@LA-fz5qw]

Not for long Tina is going to be in there twice also!!! Two very deserving woman

[@rosamorales5282]

Stevie is an icon. 50 years later still performing and still amazing. No one compares.

[@bfx20018f]

Stevie was writting so many songs that Fleetwood Mac could not incorporate them into their act. She had to go out on her own to sing them.

[@angelrdiaz4755]

Gwen is great but she will never be even in the same atmosphere or universe that Stevie Nicks was and still is in and continues too go into larger levels of conquest of space and time PERIOD (:. Sorry but she the GOAT PERIOD (:.

[@verribarry]

According to Nicks, the title came from a conversation she had with Tom Petty'ss first wife, Jane, about the couple's first meeting. Jane said they met "at the age of seventeen", but Jane's strong southern accent made it sound like "edge of seventeen" to Nicks. She liked the sound of the phrase so much that she told Jane she would write a song for it and give her credit for the inspiration

[@josephtraylor1710]

However, the song is about death. Stevie's uncle & John Lennon.

[@marksims6425]

Stop dragging my heart around with her and Tom Petty !!!!

[@susanmaggiora4800]

And this is live. Such a great artist. And whoever was doing sound for this show did one hell of a job as well!

[@LA-fz5qw]

I totally understand what you’re saying but just by numbers alone Gwen has sold 9 million albums worldwide solo Stevie sold 30 Solo and that’s saying something considering rumors is still one of the best selling albums of all times by Fleetwood Mac Has sold over 40 million just that one album. Also they are two completely different styles of music.

This song has a lot of meanings in it. Not always about relationships. It's amazing to read about the meanings of her songs. She is the Queen!!!!

[@deedeesnicks]

The edge walk that Stevie does at the end collecting gifts from fans she still does this til this day when she is on tour

[@tammydean3003]

Oh yes, very much worth checking out more of her solo stuff. Fleetwood Mac still has much to show you also though!

[@michaelkeefe8494]

Waddy Wachtel on guitar, dude showed up on a lot of good music.

[@planetneutral320]

“I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly...”

[@daytonarama]

A rare example of a live performance being much better than the album version. And yes, an amazing backup band, with legendary session guitarist Waddy Wachtel and drummer Russ Kunkel. One of the backup singers is her sister. This solo tour was at the same time as the height of her fame with Fleetwood Mac.

[@heyou702pc]

Yes Stevie was very well known back in the 70's. Everyone wanted to be Stevie especially the way she dressed. We had very few woman singers. Others would be Joan Jett, Bonnie Ratt, Debbie Harry, Heart/Nancy Wilson, and Pat Benatar to name a few. I'm sure there are a few more but not many.

[@martyslazenger935]

Surprisingly good, for live. I say this because the production was so great in this song.

[@littlet1068]

Her real name is Stephanie Nicks... There is no one of any kind of comparison to Ms. Nicks. The Enchanted Queen Of Rock n Roll..There is no one like her! Happy you enjoyed it and yes dig deep in to her music .. You will be surprised!

[@jons.105]

When I saw her in '89, someone slipped a ring off her finger while she was collecting roses and stuffed animals from the stage. She begged them to return it as it was a family heirloom and they did. Aww! Happy endings!

[@rickb4079]

Gwen's a princess but Stevie still the queen. It's her emotions in her voice.

[@Retnoob]

Gwen Stefani is the dollar-store version of Stevie Nicks.

[@wen-nz3sk]

Yes, she is worth it!! 👍🏽 Stevie blew up while still a part of Fleetwood Mac!! Mick Fleetwood is playing drums in this video!! No one could hold her back. She's a gift, a treasure to us all, and FM knew it. Lindsey brought her in as Buckingham Nick's, he wouldn't go without her. Then working with her Mick was enamored, McVies were in awe. That's my take!! Stevie is a Goddess. The only 2 time female RnR hall of Fame inductee, massive creative and master writer. This song is about her uncle's failing health I believe...you asked about relationships. Yea women do write about that... Stevie Nicks is definitely worth it. Great duets too!! ❤👍🏽

[@deedeesnicks]

That's not Mick playing drums in this video

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

Lord, yes! Her catalog is ABSOLUTELY WORTH examining...and luxuriating over. Her name is: Stephanie Lynn Nicks. When she was a girl, she couldn't say, "Stephanie", and it came out, "Stevie". Hence, her nickname.

[@marniethedyslexic6445]

Great reaction Biz. Stevie Nicks is awesome. I put it right up there with Tina Turner. Yes you should check out her catalog. “Landslide” also “ leather and lace” with Don Henley. Be careful though she may still your heart.😀👍❤️✌️🌼

[@tammieparrishmiller3669]

Man there's soooo much to do by Stevie Nicks! If there's such a thing as a girl crush, I've had one for her my entire life! I remember the first time I saw her. I don't remember how she was on TV but I was skipping school and got lucky enough to see whatever it was...I don't even know if we had VCR's yet, but I wanted to dress like her and wear my hair like her, I wanted to be her! You should go back to before they were with Fleetwood Mac. Her and Lindsey Buckingham have an album called Buckingham Nicks. Not a song on it that album that I don't love! I honestly don't know anything by Gwen, but that's cause I am a 70s hippie chick. I'm sure she's good, I just don't know.

[@lynedwards6714]

Stevie Nicks is a Goddess 💜

[@reneewikaire5478]

People, fans, security, managers and boyfriends' were surrounding Miss Nicks with tijuana constantly, even in envelops, fortunately for Stevie it took some time for her to shake that demon of her back........ TF she won that battle. I adore her spirit.

[@andreaknapp2394]

[@garethswallow9996]

LMAO! I never noticed the card before until today! I am playing catchup with FM and SN as I was reintroduced to them around a year ago! I assumed FM were a folk band and wrote them off in the 90's... one of the worst things I ever did.... This was my baptism of fire song! My current on-repeat song is Sara! OMG that song just stirs everything like a massive emotional turmoil spoon with spikes! I do like Gwen, she is timeless in both looks and her art but she is no Stevie.

[@shirleybuffington6420]

No she did get the card if you watched really close at the end it was in her arm. And I noticed that the drummer in this video was non other the Mick Fleetwood who was the drummer and founding member of Fleetwood Mac

[@michaelgilbert197]

Thank you for pointing out that she DID get the card (it was edited out for time purposes) to him.... I was going to but, my comment was already too long. I figured Biz would get bored and stop reading it before he got to that part anyway! lol!!! :)

She actually did take the card. I was like you, thinking "Get the card!" I re-watched it a few times. She takes the card right at the end. Stevie is a LEGEND! She just performed this in Nashville (I'm in Knoxville) in May at 75 years old and slayed. Her voice is still amazing and she is beautiful. ❤

[@cissyiniguez]

I think I get what you mean about the Stevie/Gwen comparison. You can't compare voices (Stevie wins, hands down), but there is something about them. I've never seen Stevie live, but from what I have seen, they both have this beauty and more importantly, this charisma about them that not every performer has. Both of them seem to embody badassery and vulnerability at the same time, that's something special.

[@lindadevlin4838]

I love Gwen too who was highly influenced by Stevie…rock and roll fairy godmother!

[@billeboy4206]

The songs about her uncle going through and dying of cancer 😪😪 listen to the words

[@SG-js2qn]

She has several duets worth checking out. When you go back to Fleetwood Mac, play a song or two where Christine sings lead, like Say You Love Me, You Make Loving Fun, Over My Head, or Don't Stop. All were huge hits for the band. I'm not that familiar with Gwen Stefani. My honest take on it is that Gwen is a star, but Stevie is a legend.

[@nanner3200]

All the girls wanted to be her. All the guys wanted her. I wanted her wardrobe! Two of my favorites: Leather and Lace Gold Dust Woman

[@BayAreaSon]

Wether you do Stevie or Fleetwood Mac,you still getting Stevie.And that woman can SANG!!!!!!

[@PriestessOfNothing]

Nice, this is the best version of this song, better than the album version even. It's about the death of her uncle, and the death of John Lennon, whom she admired. As a huge Stevie fan, I have a page full of suggestions, but the condensed version is "Stand Back", "I Can't Wait" (extended rock mix), "Nightbird", "Beauty And The Beast", "I Sing For The Things", "Sorcerer", "Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream)", "Planets Of The Universe", and a duet she did with Kenny Loggins "Whenever I Call You Friend".

[@davidmazon7516]

We were building a golf course at Fort Irwin. I was living in Barstow and Fort Irwin was about 40 miles into the desert. I was at a keg party on the fort when I heard this Mexican dude say" I don't know what Stevie Nicks looks like but I love to f*** her voice " that was in 1982. I never forgot that for some reason.

[@jillw4983]

Oh wow. How can you not like the Queen of Rocking N Roll ?

[@AJ-sx3ic]

Female songs not about relationships. I thought of many, but they are still addressing humanitarian topics. What I came up with so far: Joan Jett -I Love Rock N Roll, Bangles - Walk like an Egyptian, Blondie - Rapture.

[@darrenmiller6927]

Stevie started in the 70s with Fleetwood and was solo and in the Mac starting with that video time period. Glenn stared in the 90s with No Doubt in the 90s. I see that similarity, just a few decades apart.

This Sony alwz "tears" me up bcz i saw Stevie & Fleetwood Mac on Sept. 27, 1977 wen i wz on the edge of 17 (17 days after my 17th b'day) & the following day i was in a fatal motorcycle accident. My friend died on scene & i spent the next 34 YRS having surgeries to save my leg & my back. Also my fiancee was about on the edge of 17 wen we met (i wz turning 20 & he was turning 19) He passed away 2 yrs later & i alwz dedicate this song to him! LOVE YA STEVIE!🙏💐💛

[@aceoffice776]

Man..... she nails it. She pulled a really good band together.

[@debbiehitt8500]

[@leisastalnaker3790]

Her lyrics are fire, if you really listen. I love her performances but I love her song writing even more.

[@rubyleuty9417]

Every guy in the world had a crush on Stevie. This song is about going home to his funeral and about the death of John Lennon at the same time.

This song was about the death of John Lennon and her Uncle. When she sings, “well I’ve been searching for an answer up the stairs and down the hall…not to find and an answer just hear the call of a nightbird … singing come away come away,” that was her in the hospital running up the stairs and down the hall looking for help to save her uncle and she saw a nightbird flying outside of the window.

It's like she feeds off the vibes from the audience. I love Gwen but her live performances are never better than her studio cuts.
