Stevie Nicks Performs Never-Before-Seen Version of 'Gypsy'

[@lkeven11236]

Stevie kissed me on the forhead at a show in 1978.. I was 9 yrs old. I have loved and followed her ever since! I dont love her as a Mother or a sex object? I just love her, She gave me A connection. She sings just to me..If you dont know or understand her you will never get it.. She is honest and true to the soul!

[@vixvalenz9968]

lkeven11236 That is the beauty of her Gemini soul. I actually share birthdays with her. I wish to meet her one day!

[@mizhanivui4576]

[@brandonhenchey5322]

I wish I could see her once I plan on it I bet its magical !

[@jenniferstinebaugh204]

amen!!!! Stevie truly is a beautiful soul..very honest and true to her heart...I read an article about Stevie and it was done by someone who was close to her..they said the coolest thing about her and it was " exactly how you think of Stevie is exactly how she is" I thought that was a very cool thing to say because I know as a fan and others who are fans have this magical view of her we think the world of her and when her friend said that I was like awesome because I think so many wonderful things about her and I know I wouldn't be disappointed..I'll always love Stevie nicks a fan for life.

[@lilymoon2829]

How does she do it? Raw vocals and a few chords, no technical flourishes or huge riffs or belting... and yet more impressive and heartwrenching than any other artist out there! It’s like she’s right here in my room with me... so touching, so personal and ethereal! Makes you go all warm and fuzzy 🥰 Simply the best!

[@never152]

Yep, who needs flourishes when you have top notch melodies, lyrics that paint such vivid pictures in your imagination and amazing delivery. Class act. And the on top of that an amazing band with FM who can elevate her songs even further. No wonder they were so huge and are still gaining new fans today.

[@rgrant4530]

I remember Stevie saying she wrote "Gypsy" as a tribute to the memory of her best friend Robin Anderson, who died of leukemia. I first saw her perform this live in 1982 during the Fleetwood Mac "Mirage" Tour. This video is just fabulous. Thank you for posting. "And her memory is all that is left for you now, but you'll see your gypsy...I still see your bright eyes..."

@@kostyapolykova9879 the only thing about this song that I know you could even be talking about is the word gypsy and I only know that from recent internet culture. In the real world this isn't even a slur to this day. I've always been a self proclaimed gypsy, I'm almost 50. This song has always had a place in my heart, your comment...are you a gypsy even saying that, probably not. This new generation really is the first to be worse than predecessors, to have it confirmed after hearing this beautiful version of Gypsy leaves me ready to give up. There's so much bad in this world actually happening but now our Stevie and this song is wrong in "poor taste"? Go away, leave us that are here for this the little joy left in this world.

I probably don't even want to listen to it without some tears running down my cheek, because it reminds me of something beautiful what was taking away from two amazing women who deserved so much better.

[@oneblondemom]

i just wanted to say that I first saw stevie in 1979 ...i was 17 yrs old. life took some tragic turns and I've said ever since then...if not for the music of stevie (and seeing her many times live) i would not be here today. she just gave me hope...and hope for love...and her depth and talent just helped me. anyway...what you wrote is so lovely. a very sweet and genuine description of this amazing lady. thank you...💖

[@phoeber1996]

Music heals, and you saved my life Stevie. Through this song I was finally able to deal with the death of my beloved grandmother.

[@topgazza]

Her voice is a rarity. It has actually improved as she has gotten older. Gorgeous tone

[@topgazza]

@@redletter2008 You make a good point. And with some singers their voices fade as they get older. Not their fault, thats life. but some to me improve or change often for the better. Rod Stewart is a classic example. That raspy voice has got softer but he's smart and adjusted to it. Elton John was brilliant but over the past few years he struggles to get the older songs right when live. So he adjusts the pitch of the song to suit. Even MAcca 's voice has lost a lot in recent years but come on, its still Paul McCartney... But Stevie's voice has got deeper and raspier and I like that. In fact I like all of her career.

I love the 70s and early 80s of female singers where they were talented and unique. Stevie Nicks, Cher, Tina Turner, Donna Summer, Helen Reddy, Streisand, Olivia Newton John, Linda Ronstadt, Cyndi Lauper, Annie Lennox, etc. Now it's mostly generic no talents that are there only because they look like Barbie dolls. Talent is rarely a consideration anymore. That's why hearing a great pop voice like this is soooooooo refreshing. Thanks for posting.
