I never thought about this before, but you are exactly right. There was always something about Stevie's voice that was just timelessly unique to my ears. Yeah.. it's that distinctive raspy voice. Same with Tina Turner. RIP to these two greats of music history.
The prodigy son of Minnesota came to studio and in less than 24 hrs. He makes up the synth and the rest is History! A classic and beautiful song so structured and balance. Totally 80s !
If you really think about it... there's not many songs out there quite like it... it was impressive and unique then, and it's the same today all these years later. I will say the same about "Edge of Seventeen" two years prior in 1981. Stevie just had/has that power and that magic. She was definitely rock, but yet she defied the typical song arrangements and formats. I feel that way about a lot of her songs... both solo and with Fleetwood Mac. She took you away on this meandering journey with all those lyrics and those vocal arrangements. Even if you weren't sure what the hell she was talking about, it still kept you intrigued and captivated... and soon it became personal and emotional for you too, as the listener. And, I don't believe Stevie makes any conscious effort to do that with her writing, that's just her own personal style. It's not something you learn in a class. It's just who and what she is as an artist. And how lucky we all are as fans to be taken along for the ride.
Am I the only one who would give up their cell phone, computer n delivery apps to go back to the 80’s? I would give it all up in a heartbeat to go back to Walkman’s n VCR tapes.
No if I could I’d go back to those days no cells, computers , would love walkmans and vcr for sure again where we watched mtv kids actually were outside playing !! Not stuck in a house with no means of life !
Makes you wonder if in a few decades someone will say ‘Am I the only one who would give up this ChatGPT, these androids, the self driving cars and all this, just to go back to when we had iPhones, Facebook, and a much simpler life.’ I’m from the 80s and I totally agree with you.
@@ahmeda.3198 but that's what every generation says about the last I'm coming up to 50 and it makes me laugh seeing my generation turn into old fogies. Today they complain about iPhones. Before that, it was violent video games. When I was a kid it was too much TV. And the old people in the 80s said "these kids stay in all day watching TV. Not like in our day, we played outside". Or with music. In the 80s they said "all this horrible music is made with computers" & 40 years later, they say the same thing.
@Danny Smith All of the evil still exists today. Staying on topic, the 80s were the best! Just some advise for you Danny, stop being so negative and enjoy life. The people around you will thank you for it.
So true. Many of us never appreciate our "present" ..... until many years have gone by. I will say though, the music of the 1980's was highly fun and exciting, and never left you wanting for more. The songs and the groups/artists of those days is the type of thing you never forget, and will always stay with you.
I heard an interview Stevie did explaining how Prince agreed to work on and record this track with her. Apparently she called him and he came into the studio, laid his keyboard tracks down in one take and in 20minutes left the building. She went on to say when they play this song live she uses two keyboardists. She said he was the greatest musician she had ever met.
Just saw her in concert (Greenville, SC) she's amazing! 70 yrs old,still hot and didn't take a break for almost 2 hours! Voice is still unbelievably amazing!!
She hasn't been hot for a long, long time. Stop. She's a legend of the business and has one of the most distinctive voices, but let's not get delusional about her looks.
I love the story of how this song was written. Stevie was on her way to her honeymoon and heard Prince's "Little Red Corvette" on the radio and was immediately inspired to write this song. She detoured from her honeymoon to get into the recording studio and got Prince's number. They had never met. She called him and told him that she was working on a song inspired by his "Little Red Corvette" and that she was giving him 50% of the royalties for the song if it ever became successful. She asked him what he was doing right that moment and if he could come into the studio to play on the recording. He said yes and was there in 20 mins. He worked on it and played on it in the studio with Stevie and her crew for about an hour and a half, and this is the result. Pretty great stuff.
Negative criticism from ignorant ppl ..so what does that have 2do w her musical talent..?? It happened years ago as many people in this industry got caught up w that shit ....u make a come back & stay successful

I had no idea about Stand Back but now I sure hear his mark! www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/15-great-prince-songs-that-were-hits-for-other-artists-72421/stevie-nicks-stand-back-1983-171532/
The great Steve Lukather and Waddy Wachtel are on this song as well. Both legends as well. Prince was gone way too soon. I cried when I heard he passed. Sucks getting older.
"Stevie Nicks has often told the story of how she wrote the song. She wrote it on the day of her marriage to Kim Anderson on January 29, 1983. The newlyweds were driving up to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara when Prince's song "Little Red Corvette" came on the radio. Nicks started humming along to the melody, especially inspired by the lush synthesizers of the song, and "Stand Back" was born. They stopped and got a tape recorder and she recorded the demo in the honeymoon suite that night. Later, when Nicks went into the studio to record the song, she called Prince and told him the story of how she wrote the song to his melody. He came to the studio that night and played synthesizers on it, although his contribution is uncredited on the album. He and Nicks did agree however to split the publishing royalties on the song 50-50. Then, she says, "he just got up and left as if the whole thing happened in a dream."
ruclips.net/video/8mikCI3sdlY/видео.html This is her telling that exact story above! At her concert. Beautiful story. When she says she thought her and her girls were dressed up.... than prince walked ln!
One of the best synth beats ever made. She called Prince on a whim and asked if she could come over cause she had song idea and lyrics. He wrote this for her in like 2 hours. Amazing.. Prince was one in ten billion.
Close. Prince actually came to her and met Stevie at the recording studio. Here’s the back story: “We (Stevie and her husband) were driving up to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara when Prince's song "Little Red Corvette" came on the radio. Nicks started humming along to the melody, especially inspired by the lush synthesizers on the song. The couple retrieved a tape recorder and Nicks recorded the demo in the honeymoon suite that night. Later, when Nicks went into the studio to record the song, she called Prince and told him the story of how she wrote the song to his melody. On the night of February 8, 1983, Prince came to the studio and played synthesizers on it, although his contribution is uncredited on the album. He and Nicks did agree however to split the publishing royalties on the song 50-50. Then, she says, "he just got up and left as if the whole thing happened in a dream."
Stevie Nicks wrote it, she just borrowed the opening riff from his Little Red Corvette Song and that was it. She had to get his permission to use it after she heard it on the radio and then wrote her song on her way to Las Vegas. He didn't write the rest of the music or lyrics to this song. So only the opening is credited to Prince. Though I agree, he was a Bad add musician and musical genius. The song is killer because of Stevie Nicks and Princes contribution to the instrumental opening.
I am one of those people with the ability to listen to a single song on repeat for hours/days/weeks without getting bored. It's currently this. Reminiscing the 2 times I've seen Stevie live, once with Mac once solo.
She is the only artist I know of that has not had singers copy her. Her voice is one of a kind and absolutely fabulous. Forever, the one and only, The One!
There are actually a few, and they do her great justice too I might add! Linus Love does an ABSOLUTELY fantastic cover of this song which is still one of my favourites of all time, check it out :) ruclips.net/video/w6I7YY2Gw80/видео.html
In the 80s. Music and dance had another level, sensuality, powerful, it was contagious! I will listen to this till the day i die. Steve nicks is also part of the good times.
@@milt6208 Agree for the most part, but there was some good stuff coming out in the 90's. The 2000's is when music officially died. You started seeing a lot of electronic music being made, by people with no true musical talent. Even the vocals was lack luster.
I'd say the roughly 20 years btw mid 1970s to mid to late 1990s was the golden age of popular music, people will be listening to that period in 200 years
Predicatable and commercial In retrospect the self-title "Fleetwood Mac" (1975) in the post-Green, Welch, era. With "Rumours", which doesn't hold up today as "Fleetwood Mac" does, they achieved both critical and commercial success. After that, they gravitated more and more to the commercial.
Soon approaching was my graduation from junior high. I was a happy kid then. The MUSIC throughout ALL of 1983 was the best and most memorable of my entire life, and I still love and listen to Stevie even today. Probably my favorite female artist.
Born in 79. This is forever on my playlist..I watched “Top Gun” last night too lol even though I was in navy aviation and the movie is hilarious once I saw the my exact job could’ve never killed Goose
I'm African American before there was Bet there was MTV and when I tell you I loved me some Stevie Nicks ❤ Wow I wish I could bring back those days 😢 😪 I miss the 80s so much .
Maybe for the video? New generation dont understand videos were just like that.. Today they like women shaking their butts in videos, no matter how they sing.. so sad.🤷♂️

40 years later 1983-2023, this song is still great!!!

Never heard anything else quite like it before (age 14) or since (age 55)

Stevie Nicks and Prince working together created a timeless classic.

It is a shame that Prince and Stevie Nicks didn't collaborate on more music !
Badass song ❤❤uhh
Amazing feeling when I heard her share this in concert in Columbus, OH!🎉 ❤
2024! Still a goddess..... timeless 💜😇
The 80's was the peak of great music.
Most definitely
Yes .. the 1970s was also a transcendental time of American music !
Yes it is and it was great i was born in 1985 everything in music was great at that time
90's ended Era of great music. Nowadays music is total crap.
Best music was created in 80's , can't even compare to modern crap music
2024, and STILL GOING HARD with STEVIE!!❤❤❤❤❤
Here,here! Best music!
Another Prince hit! We’re still here in almost Nov 2024 💕
Yeah Friday morning. Getting ready for tonight❤😂🎉
Love her raspy voice only Stevie can rock it❤❤
God bless anyone who got to live through the magic and greatness that was the 80s. 😩😩😩
Oh heck yeah, it was a blast! By far my most fun decade.👍
And the 70s, although very different music
OMG, WHAT I WOULDNT DO TO GO BACK AND START OVER AT AGE 14 AGAIN. BEST TIME EVER....

"Stevie Nicks has often told the story of how she wrote the song. She wrote it on the day of her marriage to Kim Anderson on January 29, 1983. The newlyweds were driving up to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara when Prince's song "Little Red Corvette" came on the radio. Nicks started humming along to the melody, especially inspired by the lush synthesizers of the song, and "Stand Back" was born. They stopped and got a tape recorder and she recorded the demo in the honeymoon suite that night. Later, when Nicks went into the studio to record the song, she called Prince and told him the story of how she wrote the song to his melody. He came to the studio that night and played synthesizers on it, although his contribution is uncredited on the album. He and Nicks did agree however to split the publishing royalties on the song 50-50. Then, she says, "he just got up and left as if the whole thing happened in a dream."
Partially correct....it was '1999' playing not 'Little Red Corvette'. Listen to the keyboards on both songs.
I Love Stevie and this Song 🎶just today i though...it does Sound as if prince wrote it...😊
@000 It's true.
Andy JS this is all a dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago

This is her telling that exact story above! At her concert. Beautiful story. When she says she thought her and her girls were dressed up.... than prince walked ln!
Wow. Back up. Dig it. Appreciate it.
This song reminds me so much of my mom, who passed away in 2009. She would always jam to Stevie Nicks. Miss you Ma. 🕊️
💕💕💕💕
Always someone in the comments referring to a dead relative. Keep it light.
Sorry to tell you, but Stevie nicks is a SATANIST! Your momma is at home ...and you will see her when it's your time! GOD IS GOOD 🙏🏾
One of the best synth beats ever made. She called Prince on a whim and asked if she could come over cause she had song idea and lyrics. He wrote this for her in like 2 hours. Amazing.. Prince was one in ten billion.
My thoughts exactly. Well said
Close. Prince actually came to her and met Stevie at the recording studio.
Here’s the back story:
“We (Stevie and her husband) were driving up to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara when Prince's song "Little Red Corvette" came on the radio. Nicks started humming along to the melody, especially inspired by the lush synthesizers on the song. The couple retrieved a tape recorder and Nicks recorded the demo in the honeymoon suite that night. Later, when Nicks went into the studio to record the song, she called Prince and told him the story of how she wrote the song to his melody. On the night of February 8, 1983, Prince came to the studio and played synthesizers on it, although his contribution is uncredited on the album. He and Nicks did agree however to split the publishing royalties on the song 50-50. Then, she says, "he just got up and left as if the whole thing happened in a dream."
51 year old metal head here. Prince was a bad-ass musician, and this keyboard riff has his DNA all over it. Killer song.
The bass sounds like a synth but it's an actual bass guitar
Stevie Nicks wrote it, she just borrowed the opening riff from his Little Red Corvette Song and that was it. She had to get his permission to use it after she heard it on the radio and then wrote her song on her way to Las Vegas. He didn't write the rest of the music or lyrics to this song. So only the opening is credited to Prince. Though I agree, he was a Bad add musician and musical genius. The song is killer because of Stevie Nicks and Princes contribution to the instrumental opening.
@@Meriale46.., it wouldn’t have had the same impact without Prince 💜
awesome song and shes amazing!!!!
Taking my sons to see this LEGEND in concert. Cannot wait!!
Imagine seeing ANY concert with your mom? Cringey.
@@clvrswinenot at all. If you really have that mindset, I feel sorry for you & your mom. going to a concert with your mom is the best.
My mother's favorite song. My mom died, but I willl always remember this song with my mom. Great song.
Hello martin This is my new favorite song interesting I enjoying her songs what about you
Prince’s handprints all over this song. Amazing
she rocks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
For their era, no one had as much pure vocal talent as Steve Perry and Stevie Nicks. Timeless classics.
Ann Wilson enters the chat !
And Jerry Rafferty
Par Benatar is smiling.
Brad Delp knocks on the door
And it's not even close...
Stevie Nicks in the prime of her life, she is amazing to listen to and watch.
It has been a perfect playing for me having a lovely and awesome Fan like you, thanks for your love, I have you mostly to be thankful for 🛠🎧🎧🎧
That woman is still gorgeous at 73. Just turned 73 a few days ago.
I am one of those people with the ability to listen to a single song on repeat for hours/days/weeks without getting bored.
It's currently this.
Reminiscing the 2 times I've seen Stevie live, once with Mac once solo.
Saw her twice once with fm in 90 and solo in 91. Great show!
Same here, everyday all day if possible 😆
Me too. Love bobbing my head on my way to work.
Me too! It drives my boyfriend crazy!
It's sick 🤢🤮
Mi canción favorita de Steve Nick: stand back.👍😘💋♥️🎶🎵😁
STILL an absolute classic!!! Literally is the sound of my childhood!!! The 80s!!
Mine too ❤
And My late 20s!!!!!!
Which was 1970!
Stevie Nicks solo song really caused the music world to "Stand Back". Four decades after it became a hit this beat never gets old.
2023 NEVER GETS OLD.
❤
This song is in my practice list on keyboards. I play it every day.
This is STILL a JAM in 2019! Done way back in 1983! WOWWWW!
beautiful retro music
Lovin Stevie as a kid back in 83, and lovin her today! One of a kind, and can she ever sing!
MTV & COLLEGE DAYS!!!
because the killer synthwave tune from Prince.
Yes, Stevie is a goddess
Mi bruja favorita!! Divina!!!
I was 16 when this came out and after 41 years i still love every songs that Stevie did ❤
Me . Love From Puerto Rico. . Take care.
March 2021 never gets better. So much love for this wild woman
Is it really March already!? 😂 I had to think about that for a second.
🥰❤🎶🎶🎶💃💃💃💃😷
Hello March how are you doing ...I like the song so much what about you ?
Gina Love From PUERTO Rico. Take care💝🌸
She is the only artist I know of that has not had singers copy her. Her voice is one of a kind and absolutely fabulous. Forever, the one and only, The One!
Lanie Gardner is great!
Elaine Edenfield from the GA band Warehouse
❤️
There are actually a few, and they do her great justice too I might add!
Linus Love does an ABSOLUTELY fantastic cover of this song which is still one of my favourites of all time, check it out :)

I was thinking the same thing!!!
In the 80s. Music and dance had another level, sensuality, powerful, it was contagious! I will listen to this till the day i die. Steve nicks is also part of the good times.
My favorite song from Stevie
I don’t give a damn if you disagree the 1980s was the last decade for great music!
So true.
@@milt6208 Agree for the most part, but there was some good stuff coming out in the 90's. The 2000's is when music officially died. You started seeing a lot of electronic music being made, by people with no true musical talent. Even the vocals was lack luster.
I'd say the roughly 20 years btw mid 1970s to mid to late 1990s was the golden age of popular music, people will be listening to that period in 200 years
Agree!
Right On 👍💜
Less than 2 weeks from 2024 and STILL ROCKING THIS GEM! 💎🎉🙌🏽
Uuuuuuffffff ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Stevie nick
80's - "This is awesome"
2020 - "This is awesome"
2049 - "This is awesome"
3013 - "This is awesome
Hahaha
Predicatable and commercial In retrospect the self-title "Fleetwood Mac" (1975) in the post-Green, Welch, era. With "Rumours", which doesn't hold up today as "Fleetwood Mac" does, they achieved both critical and commercial success. After that, they gravitated more and more to the commercial.
You win Sir, you win.
For infinity yes 😂😂😂. By the year 3000 we might be on a ET planet..
Yes.
This song doesn’t get enough attention
Released on May 19th, 1983. 41 years and 2 days ago. What a powerful song.
My mom's 30th birthday 😮
My 9th bday
Soon approaching was my graduation from junior high. I was a happy kid then. The MUSIC throughout ALL of 1983 was the best and most memorable of my entire life, and I still love and listen to Stevie even today. Probably my favorite female artist.
Born in 79. This is forever on my playlist..I watched “Top Gun” last night too lol even though I was in navy aviation and the movie is hilarious once I saw the my exact job could’ve never killed Goose
Stand Back. From The Lp "The Wild Heart" (1983).
I am 70 years old in 2022 and still listening to this great song. 🎼🎶🎵🎧
I'm 68 and still loving it we had the best music.
I'm 75 & it remains on my play list....

My God I'm 63 what a song. Song still strong ❤
SHE IS FIRE 🔥 SIZZLING HOT 🔥 AND AMAZING VOICE LIVING LEGEND, HALL OF FAME NOW
Prince on the synthesizers added so much life to this song.
Thank you Little Red Corvette!!!
I didn’t know till prince died that he had contributed to this song. Which explains why I couldn’t get enough of this song 💜
Prince and Stevie were great friends!
Not really, it's the voice
When I need a little bit of sympathy...
Stevie Nicks captures hearts with every breath, and wink of the eye.
Calm down.
I honestly do not understand the dislikes 🤦🏾♀️. What a voice.
Maybe for the video? New generation dont understand videos were just like that.. Today they like women shaking their butts in videos, no matter how they sing.. so sad.🤷♂️
They don't understand Real Music, Yes I Love Her Voice;-)
Not her best song TBH
Great song. Terrible video
@@gavo1201 Sad but true.
Yes here with you! ❤
Stevie, Prince, and the mighty Rolland Jupiter 8 🎹
This song is a national treasure. Prince and Stevie!!! I can never get tired of either of them. My fav male and female singers.
I remember when this song hit the air waves. I was like, Damn, she is amazing.
She was already amazing on Buckingham Nicks ten years earlier 😉
My #1 favorite song from my #1 favorite female singer. Stevie rocks for sure.
