For me, Stevie's songs are either too narcissistic or too fairy tale/pixie dust to be enjoyable for a whole album. Her voice also gets on my nerves, especially since she has one vocal run that she uses ad nausem. It's hard to take a whole album of Stevie.

Lindsey can be interesting on his own, though some of his stuff is too left brained to be listenable (at least to me), and a lot of his lyrics are also very narcissistic. Also, he seems to be making a lot more social commentary these days. I guess I wouldn't have too much of an issue with that if he had a history of making social commentary.

Christine's writing tends to be more universal, but she gets bland after a while. I find her albums less difficult to sit through, but they can be a challenge.
