I don’t think any band or solo artist that had hits in the 70s 80s are going to have hits now.
They are too old, too out of touch. Most big songs are about boy, girl, love , breaking up etc. When you are in your 70s yourself....all of that is a distant memory. Good memories but way back ... |

And it really has nothing to do with the quality or hipness of the music. If it comes from an oldster a song that would have been embraced if a young artist had performed it will be ignored, as a matter of course.

This. I'm not a fan of "Nightbird" at all, or really most of TWH album, but I agree that buzzy intro is awful.
I agree that "Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind" was a good song, I wish it did better- the time was still right for adult contemporary hitmakers. |

Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind” is probably my favorite track off Street Angel. It’s very “feel good” and charming. The mandolin sounds and even the drums sound great and upbeat. Sandy co-wrote some songs for other artists around this time like “Heart Over Mind” for British pop singer Kim Wilde. It was even released as a single in the UK in 1992, and made it to the top 40 over there, I believe. |

A lot of the old school ladies pretty much gave up on writing. Look at Annie Lennox, case in point.

I can't help thinking now that after Stevie said she didn't want to do another album as the only female member after SYW they should have approached Sandy to join on keyboards and vocals. A strong connection to the band and none of the baggage from huge fame elsewhere that Lindsey was concerned would happen had they brought Sheryl Crow on board (The words Neil and Finn leap to mind). Who knows... the present fiasco may have taken a lot longer to occur...

I agree that Stevie's count-off is dorky IF she is saying "one-two-three-four" (the "one" is on the offbeat). But if she's saying "and-two-three-four," she's actually correct. I just can't hear it well enough to know whether she says "one" or "and." But there are bigger fish to fry on the album, we can probably all agree. [cough . . . Gate and Garden . . . cough]
