When I first posted this poll I figured "Trouble in Shangri-La" and "Wild Heart" would both do very well.
I'm surprised that "Bella Donna" has done as well as it has, and also surprised "24 Karat Gold" hasn't done better, considering that nearly everyone cites the song as a favorite off the new album. "Rock A Little" came in about where I thought it would....not as popular as WH or TISL, but with a solid showing. Also surprised that "Alice" and "In Your Dreams" got votes as a best Nicks title track, but variety is a the spice of life. Unless there's a sudden surge of more votes, it looks like TISL is going to win. |

So sad. Someone needs to try to bring her in, out of the cold!

Perhaps as the years go by, and we've had a chance to slide 24KG into our playlists and our lives, it might surpass our current favorite title tracks. |

"Wild Heart" is my favorite title-track, but "Trouble In Shangri-La" is a very close second. They're both epic.
If the 5+ minute version of "Rock A Little" had been used on the album, as opposed to the 3 & a half minute edit, that track might be getting a little more love. The longer version definitely feels far more "title-track worthy." My ranking: #1. "Wild Heart" #2. "Trouble In Shangri-La" #3. "Rock A Little" #4. "24 Karat Gold" #5. "Bella Donna" #6. "Alice" #7. "In Your Dreams" #8. "Street Angel"

I chose Alice, even though it was a hard pick, It is the song that I most identify with and I will always be in love with that song. TOSOTM was the first album I ever heard, so it will always have a special place in my heart forever. xx

Does someone have a link to the longer version of "Rock A Little"? I didn't even know one existed.
The longer version of "Planets of the Universe" is superior too....that should have been the album version on TISL. |

It's interesting because it's not an extended version, but is rather the whole song, without being chopped up and taped back together awkwardly to fit on a vinyl record. The first time you hear it, you sing along because you're brain says 'oh it's Rock A Little' but then you'll hear pieces of the song that aren't in your mental playback.

It's a tie for me between Bella Donna and Trouble in Shangri-La, simply because Bella Dnna is simply beautiful all around and TISL is so powerful and captivating.

Bella Donna is my favorite
I love Wild Heart but the ending is just very odd (fade out) Trouble is the best song on TISRL I hate Rock A Little. But the extended version which may have been the original before shortening it is very good. I actually like it. I love the keyboard playing near the end and even real percussion is layered in the song near the end. Stevie's vocals are much better and clear. You can actually hear her and what she is singing. How the album cut made the album is beyond me. As someone pointed out, there is a drug haze around the song that has some appeal I guess. The entire RAL album is interesting because the demos, the extended cuts and the songs that were recorded but not put on this album are ALL so much better than the songs that made the cut. The extended cut of RAL is just another example.

Totally! And if ever they do the "deluxe treatment" of any of her albums (yeah, right ) like they've done with Rumours, Tusk and now Mirage, then Rock A Little would be the album I'd look forward to the most, as the demos, outtakes and alternate versions seem to be the most interesting and extensive!

I just cant for the life of me understand anyone thinking the album version is better than the extended version. Its also the case for Some Become Strangers. I hate the song but the version that did not make the album is actually not too bad. Stevie's vocals AGAIN are so much better than the coke hole album version.
