The title of the song comes from Stevie’s conversation with Tom Petty’s then-wife who said she met Tom at the age of seventeen. But her thick Southern Florida accent made Stevie think she said the edge of seventeen. Thus a song was brought into being.
Awesome reaction!❤ There's a reason that Stevie was the first woman to ever be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame... TWICE (once with Fleetwood Mac and again for her solo career)!!👊 Keep going with Stevie AND Fleetwood Mac. It's all pure gold!! An absolute MUST on a FM/Stevie Nicks journey is... "RHIANNON" Live on the Midnight Special 1976. Stevie loses her ish at the end... it'll blow your minds!!!🤯🙃 Peace and light...💞
Pretty much every woman has an instant reaction as soon as the first notes of this song start. And don’t even think about talking to us while this song is playing. Lol. It’s Stevie baby. ❤
Stevie Nicks once told the story about how when she wrote the song Stand Back she realized that it sounded a LOT like Little Red Corvette. She called Prince to tell him and ask him if she could still record it. He not only gave his permission, but also played keyboards on the track and didn't didn't want to be credited.
Actually, Stevie and her brand-new husband were driving down the coast on the way to their honeymoon suite when “Little Red Corvette” came on the radio. Stevie started humming a counter melody to the track, which is what eventually became “Stand Back.” When she was working on the track in the studio, she called Prince to tell him about it. He showed up 20 minutes later and played two keyboard hooks that became integral to the song. Even though he’s not credited, Stevie split the publishing royalties with him. In recent years, she has stated that she regrets never teaming up with Prince on stage. She has also reworked the end of the live version of “Edge of Seventeen” to pay tribute to him, adding a lyric “I know what it sounds like when doves cry.” 🌈💕✨
I love when she tells stories b4 the song. In Gypsy she talks about the velvet underground. An expensive clothing store she loved to visit but couldn't afford.
Have you guys reacted to her and Tom Petty on "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"? She was a big fan of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and would perform with them on occasion. I hope you'll react to Tom Petty soon. I suggest starting with the song "Breakdown".
Omg, I love Stevie and Fleetwood Mac. I never get tired of listening to them. She and Lindsey Buckingham singing Together is magic. Saw them in concert decades ago. But whenever I hear this song now, I can’t help but think if Joan Cusack in School of Rock with Jack Black. 😂
This was very cool. I was a kid in the 70s. Very young but my mother had all the Fleetwood Mac records and I would look at her records and Stevie Nicks was one of my first crushes that I can remember. Love hearing her sing and watching her perform. And I've liked this song since forever now. Great choice 👍
She got the title from a misunderstood line from a close friend at a pivotal time, and had to ask if she said... and she'd said something else, but the line stuck in Stevie's head, and she wrote the song. Mick Fleetwood on the drums there,did you notice? She's my favorite female artist. 💜💜💜🙏😎💜💜💜
Fortunate to have seen Stevie's 1st solo White Winged Dove tour which she cut short to return to Fleetwood Mac, and saw them too!! Multiple times, 1st time, 78!! Her back up singer is best friend Sharon. LOVE HER!! ❤
Back in the 70's and 80's people always said that my sister looked like Stevie Nicks. I suppose anyone that was a fan of their Rumors album would still be a fan of hers today. She is quite unique
Stevie Nicks is amazing! I will always go back to her in my various playlists. If you decide to do more Fleetwood Mac, you should know that the band did not speak to each other while making Rumours! They were all fighting due to all the cheating and back stabbing and if you listen to all the songs, you can hear all the emotions from each person’s perspective. It’s an absolute BANGER of an album from beginning to end. The next 3 Stevie Nicks songs you should listen to is: 1.) Gypsy 2.) Stand Back 3.) Leather and Lace
Saw Fleetwood Mac live in late 79 early 1980. Rhiannon blew me away. Love watching them do this on the Midnight Special ... amazing complete performance for me. 💞
Probably the best female rock voice ever. No matter what she does, she does it very well. If you haven't seen it, try "Rhiannon" live on Midnight Special in 1976. Stunning, Stevie at her brilliant best.
Stevie was one of favorite female leads back in the 70's, her an Ann Wilson from Heart, they were both so good, but I had a huge crush on Stevie, I had the poster of her in the white dress and holding the two doves. Do more Stevie and Fleetwood Mac
It is both strange and difficult seeing Stevie sing this mega hit less Mic Fleetwood, Lyndsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, and John McVie on stage with her............. sad almost, but Stevie still has the goods and she can still deliver. Great reaction guys, TY.
Awesome!! She is amazing in everyway.. No one does this today.. Find a group that has a lead singer, Guitar, Base , Drums, or that can play instruments. hard to do.
Stevie’s voice has a lot of texture in it and and she has a fast vibrato. She is not like any other singer and that’s why you hear the difference in her back up singers.
QUEEN 👸 I've been mesmerized by her since I was 8 years old, and that was a long long time ago lol She's had her background singers for a very long time, they are just as important to her as anyone else in the band. The one in the blue dress, Sharon Celani, has been with her since the beginning of her solo days. There's also Lori Perry Nicks, who became her sister in law when she married Stevie's brother. There is a lot of interplay vocally between Stevie and the background girls, it's one of my favorite things about her solo work. I'll concur with everyone else in saying you should see Fleetwood Mac "Rhiannon" live on Midnight Special. But as for solo work, try "Stand Back" (inspired by Little Red Corvette), "Nightbird", "Beauty And The Beast", "Talk To Me", "If Anyone Falls", "Gold And Braid" from this same concert, a song she did with Kenny Loggins "Whenever I Call You Friend", and some songs from later work that are badly neglected "Sorcerer", "Planets Of The Universe" and "Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream)". Have fun in this rabbit hole, I'm here for it!
Hear “Gypsy” and “Landslide” (the original, _not_ the official version). She was great before and after Fleetwood Mac, and I can’t tell the difference because she was so central to their sound!
Stevie and tom petty did great song together called stop dragging my heart around. I always loved Stevie had huge crush on her even now gorgeous women seen her with fleet wood Mac and seen her solo twice once was this past year she still touring amazing doing all here great music love her
One of the Brunettes in the background singing is her Sister! and her best friend she travels with on the road! Fleetwood Mac - Stevie Nicks - Seven Wonders Stevie Nicks - Talk to Me - Rooms on Fire - Dreams - Rhiannon - Stand Back Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty - Stop Dragging my Heart Around
Learn more about Fleetwood Mac, she was one of the headline singers of that band, with Lyndsay Buckingham (also lead guitar) &Christie McVie (wife of bass player John McVie). The drummer was Mick Fleetwood hence the name.
when she was 17 she wrote this, John Lennon an her Uncle both died in the same week, a few days apart and she wrote this, were she was so young and took both there deaths really hard
My gosh what a beautiful song and performance. That moved something in my spirit. Had never heard it. Very beautiful.. Thank you to the people that requeasted it and thank you guys for honoring it! Give me a singer I can feel that is technically "less great" over one that has the opposite, 100% agree.
Timeless!!!!! Stevie is a legend 🔥 My husband has his own hook to this song; he sings “look at the one winged dove, look at it go I think it’s spinning” . Drives me crazy 😂
Fellas- this was one of the big songs in School of Rock when Jack Black takes the school principal out for a drink! “ Just like the white winged Dove Sings a song Sounds like she’s singin’ Oo baby OO baby OO! “ The studio cut has better sound! ❤
Stevie is a true Queen! To truly appreciate all…you must research and learn about Fleetwood Mac & Stevie’s solo work. One of the greatest songwriters in history.
No, Stevie wasn't the lead singer of Fleetwood Mac. They were a blues act then morphed into rock/ pop with Christine McVie doing a lot of the vocals. They wanted to hire vocalist/ guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, but he said only if his girlfriend Stevie Nicks could join. So, there were multiple singers and songwriters in the band.
Listen to their 1973 "Mystery To Me" album when Bob Weston and Bob Welch were headlining the band. It's every bit as good as any album they put out with Stevie and Lindsey.@@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester
Saw Fleetwood Mack earlier on at a very small club in Dallas called Cardies or maybe when it was formerly called the Bijou. Anyway late 70s early 80s and miss chica got so coked up that she ended up in the hospital with a deviated septum. The club had a major cocaine bust around that time and I believe that's when new owners took over. She was and is fabulous and I'm glad she gave all that up before it ruined her beautiful voice! ✌🏼❤️💡
Y'all should listen to the studio version....this seemed to be pretty watered down being a live performance, studio version is very clean and you can really hear each piece way better!
My husband had the biggest crush on Stevie our daughters took him to her concert right before he passed ❤❤❤❤
My teenage crush! Daughter bought us tickets for Christmas. Concert was last night in Greenville sc. So good!!!!
I think every boy in the 70s did Along with Blondie in the 80s... They are in their 70s now and still beautiful
@@terryconnelly484 And Pat Benatar
What guy didn't? Some gals too.
We all did
Stevie Nicks is touring right now. She is 75 yrs old and looks and sounds fantastic!! Stevie is iconic.
IMO one of the sexiest top shelf voices ever
The WONDERFUL Waddy Wachtel ….lead and rhythm guitarist and stage manager of her tours for over 40 years. They’re on tour right now.
He was guitarist for Linda Ronstadt in 70's,he toured with her for years,great guitarist!
I wonder if he was related to my best friend Howard Wachtel? Would be interesting!
The title of the song comes from Stevie’s conversation with Tom Petty’s then-wife who said she met Tom at the age of seventeen. But her thick Southern Florida accent made Stevie think she said the edge of seventeen. Thus a song was brought into being.
You said edge of seventeen.
A great duet is Kenny Loggins and Stevie Nicks on “ Whenever I Call You Friend”- it’s KILLER!❤❤❤❤
agreed! a classic song. the vocals are killer on that tune. a marvelous song!!!
Rock GODDESS!🔥👑 I saw her on this tour promoting her solo debut in '82 ( college) 😃✌️🩷
Awesome reaction!❤ There's a reason that Stevie was the first woman to ever be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame... TWICE (once with Fleetwood Mac and again for her solo career)!!👊 Keep going with Stevie AND Fleetwood Mac. It's all pure gold!!

I never get tired of listening to Stevie Nicks.
Those Fleetwood Mac duets with Lindsay Buckingham were just phenomenal classics. That was some great music.
She's also inducted in to the rock n roll hall of fame twice...with Fleetwood Mac and as a solo artist.
Have you guys reacted to her and Tom Petty on "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"? She was a big fan of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and would perform with them on occasion. I hope you'll react to Tom Petty soon. I suggest starting with the song "Breakdown".
She wasn’t a fan. She and Petty were best friends.
Great reaction! You should check out her singing Rhiannon with Fleetwood Mac live on The Midnight Special!

This entire LP was a classic.... BellaDonna is one of the best of all time!!!
Stevie is a force of nature
You need to listen to the studio version to really understand what and how she approached this song.
This was very cool. I was a kid in the 70s. Very young but my mother had all the Fleetwood Mac records and I would look at her records and Stevie Nicks was one of my first crushes that I can remember. Love hearing her sing and watching her perform. And I've liked this song since forever now. Great choice 👍
hope you react to "Silver Springs" Live 1997 and "The Chain" Live 1982. Great performances and really shows the background between Stevie and Lindsey
She got the title from a misunderstood line from a close friend at a pivotal time, and had to ask if she said... and she'd said something else, but the line stuck in Stevie's head, and she wrote the song. Mick Fleetwood on the drums there,did you notice? She's my favorite female artist. 💜💜💜🙏😎💜💜💜
All of Stevie's songs are awesome!!! I'm love her music! Stevie keep rockin'. We love you!!!
I can't wait to see stevie nicks live in March
Just saw her earlier tonight (for the 3rd time) and she was amazing
Check out Fleetwood Mac on midnight specials live performance of Rhiannon.
Na.. her live shows are horrible now
I grew up on this album. And Fleetwood Mac. Love Stevie Nicks! ❤
check out Stevie Nicks Stand Back official music video 1983. Inspired by Little Red Corvette and Prince plays keyboards on the track 👍
With Mick Fleetwood laying that heavy drum beat to this song. Nice performance.
Pretty sure that’s not Mick. Does look a lot like him though.
That's Russ Kunkel. A great drummer and a great session man.
Not Mick
Fortunate to have seen Stevie's 1st solo White Winged Dove tour which she cut short to return to Fleetwood Mac, and saw them too!! Multiple times, 1st time, 78!!

I got to see her perform live in Chicago with Fleetwood Mac, what a great concert that was 🔥
Stevie also appears in the Bootylicious music video 😂
Bey9nce is trash
I heard stevie and Beyonce mom were friends or something like that
One of the best concerts I've ever been to.
Stevie 😍 Love her ...
Love Fleetwood Mac even loved her back in the day when they were just Buckingham Nicks . She's always been great! ❤
Great tune to wake upto on a miserable Thursday morning in a wet Manchester, love her voice and she was amazing in Fleetwood mac. Cheers
I'm with ya.
Yayyy!
Love Stevie ❤
You should really see her with Fleetwood Mac on the midnight special doing Rhiannon. She's posessed, and magnificent
Stevie Nicks is amazing! I will always go back to her in my various playlists. If you decide to do more Fleetwood Mac, you should know that the band did not speak to each other while making Rumours!

Saw Fleetwood Mac live in late 79 early 1980. Rhiannon blew me away. Love watching them do this on the Midnight Special ... amazing complete performance for me. 💞
QUEEN STEVIE!!
GODDESS!! This entire album is fire actually!
I appreciate you shared that tweet from Stevie! Nice reaction! Is the older gentleman married? Kidding! I love his vibe! ✌
I saw her 4yrs ago and her voice and looks haven’t changed!!
Queen Stevie the only artist inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame twice once with Fleetwood mac and once as a solo artist
Saw her back in the 80’s with Fleetwood Mac ! Fantastic performance!
Probably the best female rock voice ever. No matter what she does, she does it very well. If you haven't seen it, try "Rhiannon" live on Midnight Special in 1976. Stunning, Stevie at her brilliant best.

Haven’t missed a Stevie solo tour down under or a Fleetwood Mac concert. Can’t wait for her to announce an Australian tour.
All I can say is that I worship at the alter of Stevie Nicks. ❤
This entire concert is fantastic. Watch it all! Sara, I need to know, etc
It is both strange and difficult seeing Stevie sing this mega hit less Mic Fleetwood, Lyndsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, and John McVie on stage with her............. sad almost, but Stevie still has the goods and she can still deliver. Great reaction guys, TY.
❤❤❤❤❤Stevie my fav female vocalist !!!
One of my favorite female singing voices, love Stevie’s voice.
Seen her on tour solo and with Fleetwood in 2012. She has a unique voice for sure.
Awesome!! She is amazing in everyway.. No one does this today.. Find a group that has a lead singer, Guitar, Base , Drums, or that can play instruments. hard to do.
One of my favorite drummers, Russ Kunkel.
Stevie’s voice has a lot of texture in it and and she has a fast vibrato. She is not like any other singer and that’s why you hear the difference in her back up singers.
You guys have ole soul, which is awesome
She still played with some of the Fleetwood mac crew when she was solo

Neither backup singe4 is Stevie's sister. Lori Perry Nicks is Stevie's sister-in-law. She is married to Stevie's brother.
@@clarkmacgowan5114Actually, I think Lori and Christopher are divorced now. I could be wrong.

Sporting a MANE of hair. Perfect 😊
Been a Stevie fan since the 70's and I was at this Concert at Red Rocks in Denver it was great!
Stevie is such a wonderful performer amazing! Great reaction guys 🔥❤️🔥🔥
when she was 17 she wrote this, John Lennon an her Uncle both died in the same week, a few days apart and she wrote this, were she was so young and took both there deaths really hard
Stand Back!
When I grew up in the 70's as soon as I saw her, I thought every girl better look like her. Lol she was the girl in my head!
The story behind this song was that her best friends died right after she had her son so Stevie took care of him and sent him to college.
Same song live Chicago 2008, Stevie with an incredible band..check it.
Y’all should watch her sing Rhiannon on the midnight special in 1976 I believe it was. Amazing

Love Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac. A lot of teenage girls in the late seventies wanted to look like her.
Nice to see she used mick Fleetwood on drums for this tour
Fellas- this was one of the big songs in School of Rock when Jack Black takes the school principal out for a drink!
“ Just like the white winged Dove

Sounds like she’s singin’

Cause it's our generation.
Landslide is a great song
You should do The Sound of Muzak by Porcupine Tree! Way ahead of it’s time.
The audio on this video was messed up. It made the background louder than the lead. Listen to the studio version.
Best s female singer ever
