I so agree about ISMS, such a hidden treat on that album.

Hmm.

1. Street Angel is a great album
2. Stevie has wasted years and years of creativity talking about instead of doing.
3. I think she's far more bored with her old songs than she will ever admit. This shows on stage, when she is usually putting in a grand total of zero effort on her vocals, with a few exceptions.
4. Angel is *not* a good song.
5. Sara is a total bore and waste of the 6 minutes of space it took up on the vinyl record.
6. I miss coked out Stevie and her voice and her writing.

I like Too Far From Texas and initially thought it was the best song on the album. But that changed after about 2 years. It took me two years to fully appreciate TISL.

I like Sara, somewhat. Well, I don't hate the song.

I like it, too. I had a crush that lasted years. He moved to Texas, and I always thought *I* was too far from Texas.

I thought it was a really good song too, but I think Stevie ruined it with a god-awful vocal.

Internet piracy thing she keeps bringing up is getting old.I always say .If the industry stop producing crap for music these days .Maybe fans will start buying legit copies of tunes.

I do understand her point about ripping her off of her music.

Also She keep saying save the music industry at the end of her and FM concerts.
I will say the same for that too.

Turn it back 25 years ago when I used to buy $75 to $100 dollars worth of music.It was will worth it .Now forget it.The last CD that I bought was IYD the next will be FM''s Rumours collection.

1. If Stevie's voice sounded like it does now from the beginning, she would have never made it.

and

2. I like both When I see you Again and The Second Time.


I can't come up with anything more right now.

I like Street Angel (mostly)

If Stevie is going to continue with FM, she needs to be there for whole albums. It doesn't need to be where LB, MF, and JM have been working for 6 months to a year and a half on the album and then Stevie shows up.

I am definitely not a shipper about LB and SN.

I don't like "Stand Back" and wish that Fleetwood Mac would stop playing it. SB has no place in the FM set.

The old "dance sequence" with Brad Jeffries during "Stand Back" was ridiculous. It was, for me, a low point in her creativity as an artist. Can we say, "TRYING TOO HARD"?

Stevie and the Klonopin? It wasn't the Klonopin, it was her addictive personality.

Stevie and children. She and Don could have afforded that child. It was just an incovinence. Too bad the baby never was. I think Stevie should have been a mom.
