This made for a fascinating thread topic (TISL vs. IYD) on the Stevie forum. Let's give it a try with Lindsey's most recents. I'm cutting She Smiled Sweetly so it's 10 v. 10. That gives SWS an edge :lol:

Great Day vs. Seeds We Sow
Time Precious Time vs. In Our Own Time
Did You Miss Me vs. Illumination
Wait for You vs. That's the Way Love Goes<---Tough choice
Love Runs Deeper vs. Stars Are Crazy
Bel Air Rain vs. When She Comes Down<---Tougher choice
The Right Place to Fade vs. Rock Away Blind
Gift of Screws vs. One Take
Underground vs. Gone Too Far
Treason vs. End of Time

GOS: 6
SWS: 2
Draw (for now): 2

Seeds We Sow is one his most cohesive collection of songs.

I found Gift of Screws to be very disjointed and there really wasn't enough new ground covered for it to sink in. Of all his albums, it is the least memorable for me.

Maybe in part, because I was so impressed with Under The Skin.

I don't really get the point but I'll play anyway. :shrug::thumbsup:

GOS - 4
SWS - 6

If they'd been lined up differently then GOS could have easily won. A lot of those songs are too difficult to compare.

Cool...

Great Day vs. Seeds We Sow (This might change if it was the electric version)
Time Precious Time vs. In Our Own Time
Did You Miss Me vs. Illumination
Wait for You vs. That's the Way Love Goes - Agreed, this is hard!
Love Runs Deeper vs. Stars Are Crazy (Still hate Stars...)
Bel Air Rain vs. When She Comes Down
The Right Place to Fade vs. Rock Away Blind (Ouch!)
Gift of Screws vs. One Take
Underground vs. Gone Too Far - love both though
Treason vs. End of Time - not crazy about either but End of Time has more of a melody...

Love Runs Deeper vs. Stars Are Crazy
Bel Air Rain vs. When She Comes Down- Tie
The Right Place to Fade vs. Rock Away Blind

Totally even split, which is funny though, because as a whole, I overwhelmingly prefer GOS.

GOS seemed all over the place, to me too.

The only SWS songs that get the edge over their GOS counterparts are:

In Our Own Time
Gone Too Far
End Of Time

I'll let others "do the math".

As I said in the First Impressions thread, I do not like SWS better than GOS. The only song that I always skip on GOS is Time Precious Time. On SWS, I have to start playing it on Rock Away Blind. Weird because I have never had to start a CD in the middle. I do like That's the Way Love Goes though. Some of these songs sound strangely familiar, maybe because they are like GOS songs. But still, I like GOS better.
