It also appears on the retrospectives Timespace: The Best of Stevie Nicks (1991) and The Enchanted Works of Stevie Nicks (1998).
But this time –Īccording to Vernon, the album is dedicated to singer/songwriter Richard Buckner and Bernice Johnson Reagon, who founded the a cappella group Sweet Honey In The Rock.“Beauty and the Beast” is Track 10 on The Wild Heart, the album’s epic orchestral closer. For this one, there’s still some dark stuff and whatever, but I think cracking things, making things that are bombastic and exciting and also new, and mashing things together, and explosiveness and shouting more, I think that was the zone. And then wallowing in it, circling though the same cycles emotionally just feels boring. For me, it’s not embarrassing, but the old records are of this kind of sad nature - I was healing myself through that stuff. And I needed it to sound a little radical to feel good about putting something out in the world. I think it’s that thing of wanting to bash things apart a little bit and break through some stuff. In addition, Vernon discussed the album’s departure in sound: That little bit “wild wild wild heart,” that’s that sample. There’s this beautiful YouTube of her singing and someone offstage singing harmony. It’s just her warming up in 1981 getting her hair did and singing her song “Wild Heart,” which in my opinion was never properly recorded. It’s from my favorite YouTube video of all time. Mostly didn’t want to get asked about working together when we didn’t work together. She requested that we not talk about it in the liner notes. And at the press conference last night, as Pitchfork reports, Vernon explained why he used it and why it’s not officially credited: When Bon Iver’s new single “10 d E A T h b R E a s T ?” arrived a few weeks ago, many recognized a sample from a popular YouTube video of Stevie Nicks singing “Wild Heart” backstage. Last night, Vernon held a press conference to debut the official studio version of the LP, inviting journalists to Eau Claire, Wisconsin’s unopened Oxbow Hotel to hear it and participate in a 90-minute Q&A session. Bon Iver performed their upcoming album 22, A Million in its entirety at Justin Vernon’s Eaux Claires Festival last month.
