So Stevie's choices of words were very deliberate--she was stringing together her cliches on purpose. She was trying to convey as much emotion as economically as possible, so she chose words and phrases so familiar that they instantly evoke feelings we all understand. Hmm. I almost buy that! It's better than believing that the lyrics were written in a haze of brain-dead burnout. I do agree that her vocals are well done--subtle, light, and yes, sexy. The bass drum and guitar riff in the chorus are effective too. Hmgh. I guess I can't hate NMB as much as I thought I did. ~Amy ps: I think your comparison to Sara helped alot. |

yeah Joe! (rodeo) defend "Not Make Believe" it is a great song overall... music, lyrics, vocals, etc... This song should have definetly been on SYW... "Silver Girl" instead of "NMB" that is the tragedy here...

I'll try to keep it to one song per singer/songwriter:
-Bob Welch- "Forever" Dude, like, I can smell weed when I hear this. -Christine- "Prove Your Love"- "Heroes" is arguably the worst FM album, and this is the worst song on this album (and there are plenty of bad songs to choose from). -Rick Vito- "Stand on the Rock" Can you say 'session guitarist'?! -Billy Burnette- "In the Back of My Mind"- Pink Floyd meets David Cassidy. -Danny Kirwin- "When You Say" I can imagine this number was popular in the asylum. -Lindsey- "Make Me a Mask"- Make me some earplugs too! -Stevie- Whazzamattahbabee!!!!! -And the worst group collaboration is: "For Your Love," which has absolutely no purpose whatsoever. |

But "These Strange Times" and "Lizard People" really have to top the bunch of crap. Mick should stay quiet behind his drum set... They are even worse than "Family Man". No, wait a minute... they are not. But they are still bad. Oh, and it's Danny "Kirwan". Song of the moment - Seven Wonders

i must be a phreak -
because all those songs you list as the worst are some of my favorites. i love Not That Funny - along with the rest of Tusk That's Alright is probably one of my all time favorite Stevie songs. I love Warm Ways and Sugar Daddy. I love Red Rover and think it's one of the most brilliant recordings Lindsey has ever done. However..... I hate Don't Stop. It's the cheesiest cheapest piece of garbage. I hated it in 1976 and it still makes me wince. (I was and am a big Clinton supporter). Wish You Were Here is pretty awful. as is Silver Girl. Running Through the Garden is embarrasing. Goodbye Baby was a waste and only added to the bloat of Say You Will. Removing those three tracks makes for a much better Say You Will. Seven Wonders has dreadful vocals. Welcome To The Room Sara is so self-centered and self indulgent and embarrasing in the lyric department. Aside from that, I absolutely love this band and they can do know wrong - even with those mentioned clunkers. That bonus Stevie track on the Limited edition about her self esteem hurting is also rather embarrasing. But guess what? I haven't been able to stop listening to Say You Will every day since I got it on April 15th. So I'm able to forgive the few misteps amongst this brilliant record |

"I Know I'm Not Wrong" (yikes)
"Not That Funny" "Empire State" (the WORST - pretty much ALL of Lindsey's Mirage songs suck ass) "Brown Eyes" (Ditch the sha-la-la crap) "Paper Doll" (Stevie at her Klonopin worst...) |

First off, it is spelled: K-I-R-W-A-N I'll just say, I think your ears have wax in 'em, but if that's how you hear these songs, I pity you. |

Awful:
Come Just awful. Yes, Lindsey...we know, you're so artsy!!!! Murrow and Red Rover You and I, part 2 As for Stevie WTTR...S Ok, yes...it stinks. Not so much the words, but where's the tune? Silver Girl Yeah this sucks too, but i stand by my orignal statement and wonder what John Shanks or even Sheryl Crow would have made of this song!
