I don't know any other Dixie Chick fan that doesn't love every single song on that album. Can't say that for Fleetwood Mac :sorry: I'm seriously thinking, they're going to take home the Grammy.

I know it was a joke, but it didn't make much sense!:sorry:

A much better joke would've been to make fun of something of Christine's(just for your own future reference).;)

Im sorry my joke wasn't to your liking - I will try harder next time :D

"She's So Unusual" maybe, but "Hat Full of Stars" - No Way!!!!

i'll second whoever said these are rare...

here's what i can think of:

- buckingham nicks

- sinead o'connor: i do not want what i haven't got

- imogen heap: speak for yourself

and if mark knopfler and emmylou harris had only left off the god-awful "red staggerwing"... all the roadrunning would have been perfection.

there must be more - but that's it for now.

cause most late-30-year-olds mellow in taste of music, whereas my taste has become nuthin' but metal (Be it Black metal/Death Metal/Viking Metal). I was always metal, even when I first started listening to FM I still maintained my collection of metal music.

I also refuse to acknowledge rap/hip-hop (Not into beats or rhyming - It works for others so that's cool, just doesnt offer me the same)...No rap/hiphop to be found in my music collection, though I have plenty of discs by musicians of color such as Hendrix, Prince, Living Colour, Phil Lynott, Eric Gales Band, etc. (Not to mention artists such as the Spinners, the Four Tops, Peaches & Herbs, Tina Turner, WAR, etc.)

well, we're opposites in that regard because i have much more love for rap/hip hop than i do for metal. i'm willing to give individual metal artists/bands a shot, but i really just don't enjoy the overall "metal" sound. i would say it's because i'm too girly, but then why the hell do i like rap? :laugh: it's certainly not because i find tupac hot. :lol:

musicianship moreso than lyrical content, so alot of the time I enjoy metal just for the musicianship aspect (And yes, Sometimes I could care less what a song is about as long as the music is interesting).

As much as I have tried to be open minded for some music, I just cannot get into vocally dominated music like most Ledgies (Nothing wrong with liking vocally dominated music - Whatever floats anyones boat is fine by me). Hell, I even like techno & trance music :nod:

It's funny, I grew up with a majority of my school friends being of color and I don't recall rap being the music they enjoyed (Could've been because it was in its infancy back then)- They enjoyed R&B, Dance and Soul music, which I do like.

"She's So Unusual" maybe, but "Hat Full of Stars" - No Way!!!!

RAL, SA & OSOTM have bad tracks, but I don't agree on TISL - that album is perfection...

Street Angel:
Kick It

wtf? lol. I love Alice, If I Were You and Kick It. plus, SA doesn't suck. you have to have an exquisite ear to appreciate it. :laugh:

I've thought about this topic for a while and I'm still compiling, will post mine later.

OMG! Alice is just...annoying! I love the first 10 seconds of it but the vocals and tune that Stevie is singing in doesn't fit the music AT ALL! I can't STAND If I Were You - it's on a par with The Nightmare for the worst song on RAL. Kick It is just....naff. I love half of Street Angel but the rest of it is just...naff. Yeh. Naff just about sums it up. Who else thinks that's "God's Garden" should've been the last song on SA instead of Jane

Are you deaf :eek:

or OSOTM:shrug:

LOL! I was gonna say, has he heard Street Angel yet :sorry:

I believe thats Ethan's favourite Stevie album, which explains alot :laugh:

Or "Wild Heart"


TISL is the only Stevie album that would EVEN come close to qualifying. And, for anyone to even have a nanosecond's thought that OSOTM should even POSSIBLY be a candidate should just jab an ice pick through both eardrums.

What about Bella Donna?

With "After The Glitter Fades" and "The Highwayman", not a chance.

[skcin]

You're serious. Wow. That Made Me Stronger is a one of her best songs, but these two are stinkers? To each their own, I guess.

[HomerMcvie]

With "After The Glitter Fades" and "The Highwayman", not a chance.

Bzzzzzzzz. Wrong.
Those are probably my favorite two songs on BD.
What, Rockboy.....you got something against steel guitar?:shrug:

[foxyluva]

Here is where i disagree with you - "The Highwayman" is the best song on that album...

Drama KING! :mad:

Considering the rest of the album's tunes...especially, the title cut, "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around", and (God forbid) "Edge Of Seventeen", there's no way in HELL "The Highwayman" (personal preferences aside) could in any way, shape or form be within 10 spots of "best song" on Bella Donna.

I think the writing and her voice put it way up there. I do not like the guitar work that much though.

As for KING - hey, even Mick wore a wedding dress once :lol: :lol: :lol:

To me, the two clunkers are Still of the Night and Kind of Woman - but to each their own!

Not really :laugh: It was pretty pathetic...

[foxyluva]

To me, the two clunkers are Still of the Night and Kind of Woman - but to each their own!

Exactly - I don't think any one person can decide what is the best track on any album - its all personal opinion...

As for "How Still My Love" - that song really comes into its own in concert. Have you heard any of the '86 versions of it? *drool*

[ryan8472]

Oh well, I suppose we will have to agree to diagree :) Atleast Homer agrees with me...

I agree too. I love that song a lot. :nod:

Still of the Night is a bit of a clunker, but How Still My Love kicks ass!

Actually, I think Think About It is the closest thing to a stinker on Bella Donna. Then again, I never really liked Stevie's "happy" songs.

[chiliD]

Atleast Homer agrees with me...

Like THAT is supposed to be some sort of badge of honor? :shocked: :eek: :lol:

Wow, I went through this whole thread, and I'm pretty sure I didn't see:

Graceland - whenever these "best album" things come up, I think of this one first. It's fricking phenomenal.
All Simon and Garf albums
Possibly all Simon solo albums, don't know for sure, but would be willing to bet on it.

[foxyluva]

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Hell, I would rather listen to "Street Angel" than "Wild Heart" :shrug:

Graceland - whenever these "best album" things come up, I think of this one first. It's fricking phenomenal.


Eh, Its okay. I prefer his new album, but I am sure Carrie would agree with you :)

[foxyluva]

Tom Petty: Full Moon Fever
Roy Orbison: Mystery Girl

Forgot about those ones :thumbsup:

Odd choice with Soul Asylum being on that list, I find all of it pretty bad apart from track 1 and "Runaway Train" :shrug:

[carrie721]

Graceland - whenever these "best album" things come up, I think of this one first. It's fricking phenomenal.

yes. yes yes yes. graceland is so beautiful, it is my hymnal. so beautiful.

yes i would. :D i do love his new one, tho.

Praise be and thank the Lawd (totally different than "lord") -I'm so glad you said that. That album so speaks to me. Everyone always says "oh, yeah!" when I mention it, but no one usually lists it themselves, when, to me, this album is one that is pentultimate. This album means so much to me, even though I like Stevie best ever, when someone mentions "Whole album" this is always the first one to come to my mind.

Right up there with She's So Unusual. I could put a laughie here, cause it sounds improbable, but She's so Unusual is one of the few other albums I would name in this category. I didn't check for it before, but I assume Heart is well represented here? Please?

Also y'all have made me consider perusing Warren...:xoxo:

[foxyluva]

HAHA, you bitch. :mad: :laugh:

Well, first my music tastes sucks, now Im a bitch :laugh:

Which album has the most harmonies/or is fastest and more rockin? I know he isn't known for his "rockin" but you know what I mean.
Harmonies? Awesome instrumental and vocal work?

After I said this, would you still recommend the same album?

Wait...wait..."Sentimental Hygiene"?!?!?! Brilliant!

Well, "Sentimental Hygiene" has "Reconsider Me" on it, which as you know, Stevie also recoded - the album has much the same feel as that. Its quite a commercial effort, but even though it was released in the 80s, its very timeless - probably due to the lack synth.

Or if you want rockin, you could go with "Excitable Boy", which has his biggest hit "Werewolfs of London" on it, and apart from a few mediorce tracks, its quite good :)

You can't really go wrong with either of those albums, or "The Wind" as mentioned above for that matter...

[Miss Vicky]

Michael, you've always been a bitch. It didn't just start now. :D

Oh and, to Amber (not that you can read this what with me likely still on ignore and all), if you're interested in checking out some Zevon, there are several Best of packages that you could start with:

Genius: The Best of Warren Zevon
A Quiet Normal Life: The Best of Warren Zevon
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: An Anthology (2 discs)

A Quiet Normal Life was released in '86, so it contains only older material, while the other two are more recent (Genius was released in 2002 and I'll When I'm Dead in 1996) so they span a greater portion of his career.

That is very good info, you have actually explained the albums in a way that helps me make choices.
The only thing is, I get "synth, or lack thereof" and know what that will sound like - but what about the first album (sentimental etc.) that doesn't utilize syth? Is it just super slow and boring and almost country? You know, you can have very exciting and fast music without having synth.

I dunno, you all have been very helpful, I shouldn't try to be so exact. I'll just listen myself. And decide if it is fast enough, or has enough drums, or beautiful harmonies or melodies, for myself. I'll probably hit the "werewolf of London" album first.
