lyannas's video: Stevie Nicks - Twisted Demo

Demo of "Twisted" with overdubs/mandolin from Stevie's upcoming album, "24 Karat Gold: Songs From The Vault". Written in 1996 for the "Twister" soundtrack and also released in demo form for "Enchanted" in 1998 . "When I was asked to do a song for ‘TWISTER’, I had my friend Rebecca read the script. She then gave me the Reader’s Digest condensed version so I could decide whether to do it or not. As she explained it to me, I realized that this really was… MY… story. It was about people who had extreme jobs… like chasing tornadoes, or being in a rockband. Anyway… I really hand-crafted this song for the movie. Unfortunately, if you saw the movie, you missed the song… and you certainly missed the message. So I decided to give you the original demo, recorded March 10 1996 on a 4-track Tascam by my assistant extraordinaire Karen Johnston. I was living in a beach house overlooking Sunset Boulevard and the Pacific Coast Highway, and beyond that, always… the ocean. When I decided to put this in the ‘box set’, I called Jesse V. (just last week), and he put some “vibe” mandolin on it. I love this song. I hope this time… you will understand it.” (linear notes of 'Enchanted'.
