Rock Blog - Stop Dragging My Heart Around (Stevie Nicks)

Artist: Stevie Nicks
Song:  Stop Dragging My Heart Around

Quick Thoughts: Sometimes referred to as the Reigning Queen of Rock n' Roll, between her work with Fleetwood Mac and her solo career, Stevie Nicks has produced more than forty Top 50 hits, an astonishing feat!  "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" stems from her 1981 debut solo album Bella Donna. Written by Tom Petty and Mike Campbell for their own band, but eventually arranged for Nicks.  This is a smooth duet, and Stevie Nick's voice is justifiable ranked among the greatest voices in Rock music history.

Ranking from Original "Top 1000" List:  915
Added to my Personal List?  YES
Total Songs Added to Final List: 45

Having grown up listening to mostly hip-hop, R&B, some alternative, and all sorts of music in Spanish, I decided it was time to give myself a personal survey of Rock music.  My friend BJ Swanner compiled a "Top 1000 Rock Song List", aggregated from several "Top Lists".  As I go through all 1,000 songs, I'll be creating my own list, sharing a brief post like this for all the songs that will make my final list.   I will not be ranking the songs that make it to my final list.....for now.
