The original pre-release song was around 17 minutes long and had something like 6 extra verses in it. Does anyone know what they were? Does anyone have a copy of it before it was edited down?

There is an interesting footnote to this song. "Sara" originally appeared on the Tusk album at an approximate six-and-a-half minute length. That length would be altered for the Tusk CD, but the full radio version can be heard on the Greatest Hits album. Besides these two versions, however, several longer versions do exist, and some are attainable through bootlegs and copies of demo tapes.
According to several sources, among them Stevie, the original "Sara", the one first recorded, was sixteen minutes long, nearly three times the original length. As far as anyone knows, this recording either no longer exists or is unattainable. Stevie Nicks has also refused to sing this song in concert as well as releasing the lyrics to the public.
One can only assume by its elusiveness that within this sixteen-minute version lies the true song of "Sara." Stevie is keeping it secret, and one should respect her wishes. For this reason, despite how much we interpret, how many associations we make to her music, how much we assume, how much we accuse, how much we analyze, truncate, debate, joke, laugh,
, or just listen, we must realize that the only real interpretation of "Sara" lies in the heart of Stevie Nicks.

That song has some of the most wonderful lyrics I have ever heard. I've loved it ever sinse I can remember. Every once in a while I sit down and read through the lyrics as the song plays. It reminds me of parts of my own past and I can almost put myself in Stevie's shoes feeling what she must have felt as she wrote it. I really wish all the original verses were available to enjoy. It is such an emotional song, it is really no surprise that she will not or more likely cannot handle singing it anymore. Sara was truely her masterpiece, I can listen to that song over and over for hours and not get tired of hearing it. That song is just raw emotion. I love it.Tracy
