Illume is a great mood piece--and, unlike so many other 9-11 songs--it communicates the emotional turmoil in a genuine, believable way.
Throw Down is a good tune, given added weight by the very smart, effective performance and production.
Say You Will--eh.
Smile at You does not work in this context. Othes have noted that it's better in earlier demos.
Running through Her Garden is okay, nothing too special to me, but I don't skip past it when it's on.
Silver Girl is an all-out bore with really awful words.
Everybody Finds Out may be the best Stevie Performance since Stand Back. It's hot, Hot, HOT.
Destiny Rules is a great tune given simple production. I immediately liked it.
Goodbye Baby is SYW's "When I See You Again"--an intolerable experience.
So, overall, like Lindsey's songs, some great ones and some duds. It's a strange album, with the weakest material kind of sinking into the middle of the running order.
