Stevie Nicks - Stand Back (Official Music Video) [HD Remaster] 

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

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.

This came out the year me and my wife of 36 years met. High-school sweethearts and still going strong. Lots of great 80s memories

How can you not love Stevie Nicks!

Even during a pandemic quarantine, this song still has me doing high kicks in my living room! Love me some Stevie!

Great Time in the 80`s. Best regards from Germany-Bavaria.

Oh yeah.. classic

MY ARIZONA NATIVE ❤

Just find out Prince provided the base line from Little red corvette for this Song!!!😱😱❤

Turn it up 2024

2024 still love this woman...Willow Smith reminds me of her and Janice Joplin

Yes 2024 greetings from radio Caroline xx

So when this sing came out, there was this girl in our hood named Elaine, and she was pretty easy. So instead of saying to the guys that was ready to have their turn with her, you'll be standing in a line, we'd say to them, you'll be standing in Elaine... Lol 😂 Then eventually, she started liking me, and I ended up having my turn to stand in Elaine as well... Lbvs 😅😂😊

Stevie Nicks and Prince working together created a timeless classic.

I heard an interview Stevie did explaining how Prince agreed to write 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.

Anyone here in 2024?😊

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.

Man... I could live forever in the 80s. 2024 sucks!

80s were the best, we were so blessed.

For all the people still rocking this video in 2020 hands up!!!

2024??? Who love this song?

She told the story of how Prince is playing the keyboard, synthesizer, and a little guitar in this song. How awesome is that?💜

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 !

NO music is like this anymore. Man, do I miss the 70's and 80's music.

Her voice !!! So unique and original. Still listening in 2023. I just love her!❤❤❤❤

The 80's was the peak of great music.

The magic of the 80's. So happy I was a teenager and lived all this

It’s 2023 and I’m still listening to this!! Definitely a classic!!!

The White Witch. Love this song. No current female singer can touch her.

CONGRATULATIONS STEVIE NICKS!!! The only woman ever to get inducted in The ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME twice!!! A True Legend of Classic Rock!!

For all the people still blaring this, singing their heart, doin' the twirl in 2021... You rock!🙌👩🏻‍🎤🎹🎶💕

80's - "This is awesome" 2020 - "This is awesome" 2049 - "This is awesome" 3013 - "This is awesome

2021 Stevie Nicks is the only woman that has two nominees for the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame. Pureeeeee

One of her best songs. Stevie nicks is unreal with talent.

I’m sooo blessed I grew up in the 80’s!!!!! Best music Ever!!!!!!!

Stevie Nicks is definitely a rock legend ❤❤

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.

Great song. Stevie’s voice and the fact that Prince is playing synth underneath (uncredited) just makes this an iconic song. Love it!

Oh yesss, folks: this nightingale voice of music goddess Stevie Nicks, especially this song of her, will never bore and still gives me goosebumps. I was very much alive at that time, in 1983, when I was 18 years young. So, while I'm 56 now, back in the 70's and of course the marvelous 80's I will and cannot forget those outstanding music decades. Sometimes I really want to go back to that fucking unforgettable time of my very great youth. Those were the very best days of my life!

Stevies voice is addictive

Stevie's voice is so distinctive you don't even have to see her to know who is singing.

Born in 72,child of the 80s ,was a great time to be alive ,only one raspy Stevie nicks.

Love her raspy voice, reminds me of Tina Turner,Kim Carnes and Bonnie Tyler

I remember when this song hit the air waves. I was like, Damn, she is amazing.

Stevie Nicks captures hearts with every breath, and wink of the eye.

I am 70 years old in 2022 and still listening to this great song. 🎼🎶🎵🎧

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.

Released on May 19th, 1983. 41 years and 2 days ago. What a powerful song.

51 year old metal head here. Prince was a bad-ass musician, and this keyboard riff has his DNA all over it. Killer song.

It's simply like nothing else, her voice ,the rasp,the melody is so good

This takes me back to the early 80s, when I was just a kid. Life will never be the same

Still a banger after 41 years. It’s got a great melody, Stevie’s unique and passionate vocals, Prince’s memorable keyboard riff laying down the foundation and the late great David Williams (who played on Billie Jean) on the cool and funky rhythm guitar 🎸 during the bridge 2:26

This track captures so much of the ‘80s. Yet, it’s timeless.

This song reminds me so much of my mom, who passed away in 2009. She would always jam to Stevie Nicks. Miss you Ma. 🕊️

She is soo beautiful in this video.

My God I'm 63 what a song. Song still strong ❤

*Stand back* [Verse 1] No one looked as I walked by Just an invitation would have been just fine Said no to him again and again First, he took my heart, then he ran No one knows how I feel What I say, unless you read between my lines One man walked away from me First he took my hand Take me home [Chorus] Stand back, stand back In the middle of my room, I did not hear from you It's alright, it's alright To be standing in a line (Standing in a line) To be standing in a line I would cry [Post-Chorus] La la la la la la la la la La la La la la la la [Verse 2] Do not turn away my friend Like a willow, I can bend No man calls my name No man came So, I walked on down, away from you Maybe your attention was more than you could do One man did not call He asked me for my love, and that was all [Chorus] Stand back, stand back In the middle of my room, I did not hear from you It's alright, it's alright To be standing in a line (Standing in a line) To be standing in a line I would cry [Post-Chorus] La la la la la la la la la La la La la la la la la la Doo-doo, doo-doo La la la la la la la la la La la la la La la la la la, wo-ah [Breakdown] So, I walked, walked down the line, away from you Maybe your attention was more than I could do One man did not call Well, he asked me for my love, that was all [Chorus] Stand back, stand back In the middle of my room, I did not hear from you It's alright, it's alright To be standing in a line (Standing in a line) To be standing in a line I would cry [Outro] Need a little, need a little sympathy Well, I need a little sympathy (Cry) Well, I need a little sympathy Well, you could be standing in (Stand back) Well, you could be standing in (Stand back) Well, you could be standing in (Stand back) Take me home Take me home (Stand back) Won't you take me home? Well, I need a little sympathy (Stand back) Well, you could be standing in (Stand back) Why don't you take me home? Why don't you take me home? (Stand back) Take me home (Alright) Take me home (Alright)

This is STILL a JAM in 2019! Done way back in 1983! WOWWWW!

"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."

I don’t give a damn if you disagree the 1980s was the last decade for great music!

The love of my youth. I still get gossebumps if I watch her videos and hear her amazing unique voice. Absolutely fantastic woman. 🥰👍

Stevie Nick's: the prettiest rock legend ever.

2024, and STILL GOING HARD with STEVIE!!❤❤❤❤❤

I came to see if she still moves anyone in 2024. This sister loves you Stevie.

It was sometime in 1983 I was at home relaxing after a long hot day of work with an adult beverage and turned on the TV and it was Friday night videos and there was this video! That was the night I fell in love with Stevie Nicks! Her look, her voice, her presence! Every time I watch this video it takes me back to that night! Thanks Stevie! 😘

The cheesy dancing is to distract you from the fact that she's putting a spell on you. And we like it.

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!!

This song and video is further proof that the '80's was the BEST decade for music!

Rocking it in 2022! This woman is a Goddess and continues to break those glass ceilings! Much love STEVIE❤❤ All my mom listened to in the 70's 80's and 90's!

Prince helped with the background to this song, just so you know. And Stevie appreciated it! Legends who produced a work of art.

Music from the 80's never gets old. Now I see the videos with the songs and realize how old all of us from this decade has gotten. Its pretty mind blowing to see all of us now and how much time has passed and flew by quickly. I'm in my late 50s now.

I feel like Stevie Nicks, Carrie Fisher and Linda Blair were triplets separated at birth, there are such doppelgängers. :)

I honestly do not understand the dislikes 🤦🏾‍♀️. What a voice.

Im here an loving this in 2024? 🎵

March 2021 never gets better. So much love for this wild woman

The social distancing anthem. No offense meant.

Listening in December 2020. Never gets old. ❤

January 12, 2024. Still rocking!!!!!

RIP Prince Rogers Nelson, Stevie's contributior on this song. Stand back forever in heaven sweet Prince.

Stevie Nicks in the prime of her life, she is amazing to listen to and watch.

Prince on the synthesizers added so much life to this song.

57 years old and I still love this .

No one can twirl like Stevie ❤

Stevie, Prince, and the mighty Rolland Jupiter 8 🎹

Stevie's voice is so remarkable, no matter what song she sings she makes it herown. Been a fan since i heard her with Tom Petty and of course Fleetwood. Nearly 2024 and she still Rocks . Have a Happy Christmas and a Great New Year . You will Forever be my Favourite Gypsy Lady from the 🇬🇧

I love this song and video! Takes me back to the 80's. A good time (pretty much) for me!

Prince and Stevie Nicks in one track! the very best of the 80s!!!!!

Her look, her dress, her movements, her … I could go on. Everything is perfect about this woman. Ohh, Stevie 😊

The real Queen. Remember this shit, kids?

This song is amazing and Stevie is absolutely beautiful❤

Turning 50 years old in three days and still listening to her in 2019. Love you Stevie Nicks!!!

ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE ! Powerfull synth riff, great melody and what about the UNIQUE voice of Stevie Nicks! Rich, crispy and sooo poweful voice, Not mentionning the video, wich the dark tone and red shady background gives a kind of mystical side to the song and the artist. I’ll remember forever the first time I head this song for the first time. I was in a dance club I was hypnotised by the giant screen and the obviously loud sound system.

This song doesn’t get enough attention

STILL an absolute classic!!! Literally is the sound of my childhood!!! The 80s!!

Prince rocked that synthesizer on this!

Stevie Nicks solo song really caused the music world to "Stand Back". Four decades after it became a hit this beat never gets old.
