Which "Thrown Down" Is Better?: SYW Or TISL Outtake
And which has better guitar work (I presume the TISL outtake's guitarist is not Lindsey)?
Feel free to explain why you feel as you do. |

Frankly, I find her lyrics on Thrown Down and Illume to be embarrassments. The music is stellar, but the song craft is juvenile. These songs could of been great if she werent so lazy. |

Perhaps its ignorance, but I've never heard of a barricade being "thrown down."

I dig both versions, almost like two different songs altogether. The TISL version is very good though and I'm surprised they left it off, it would've made a decent single. Fast forward to SYW- it has some lovely guitar work that makes it resonate ala Gypsy. The main problem with the SYW version is the vocal as the softer guitar calls for a more wispy vocal presentation which would've taken the song into a higher league. I'm not too bothered by the clumsy lyrics here. All around though, it's one of Stevie's better post 70's songs.

Im still waiting to hear if Stevie has been able to squeeze time into her schedule to see all of the seven wonders yet.

TISL version, by far. I think it could have been a good single, I'm perplexed why this song would be left off and a throw-aways like "Everyday" or "I Miss You" made the cut. I think the song has some typical lazy Stevie-isms but the "you can sit outside his door and wait, you can dedicate your pain to him" sounded cool and relatable. I've done my share of dedicating my pain to people who didn't return it or deserve it. I "got" that one.
I think Lindsey ruined "Not Make Believe" by the way. Stevie's TISL demo version was a lot nicer to my ear. I don't like that he added all that whispering to her SYW music, I think he did it on purpose to make her songs sound stupid and she didn't want to stand up to him. |

So the best part of the song........? Shockingly, Lindsey was involved!

It doesn't really rhyme, but that's not something I'd complain about to Bob Dylan.
