8 vs 5

But IYD -does- have my favorite Stevie tracks ever. I just don't like all those impersonal songs about countries or places or random people. TISL is much more personal.

[Frankenstein]

BLASPHEMY!!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

Still love you, though! :thumbsup:

:D Unpopular opinion, I know. To be fair I do recognize that Moonlight is the better song, but I'd rather listen to TFFT.

[bombaysaffires]

Trouble In Shangri-La vs. Secret Love -- no contest. I run through the grass, I run over the stones, show me the way back, honey

Candlebright vs. For What It's Worth

Sorcerer vs. In Your Dreams -- love Sheryl's production. No synths in sight.

Planets Of The Universe vs. Wide Sargasso Sea (But the full lyric verson) -- tough call. The overload of synths and drum machines on Planets makes it not as good as it could be, and of course nothing beats the demo for me, but Dave's production on WSS leaves lots to be desired also. And her vocal isn't as strong.

Every Day vs. New Orleans -- neither is a big fave but I'll take one she wrote over one she didn't.

Too Far From Texas vs. Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream) - mostly coz TFFT is so bad.

That Made Me Stronger vs. Annabel Lee --TMMS is a skip for me.

It's Only Love vs. Soldier's Angel

Love Changes vs. Everybody Loves You -neither is a big fave here either but I like the lyrics on LC and would love to hear it produced by someone else.

I Miss You vs. Ghosts Are Gone -- like both, but IMY is a guilty pleasure.

Bombay Sapphires vs. You May Be The One -- this is a tough call. Really like both, but went with YMBTO as it's the only sure-fire listen for me on IYD.

Fall From Grace vs. Italian Summer -- not a hard pick. Like the concept of IS but that damn "hey it's so soulful" really kills it.

Love Is vs. Cheaper Than Free

[redbird]

Trouble In Shangri-La vs. Secret Love (I honestly think TISL is a great song, starts kind of slow for me but definitely worth it; SL demo is okay but the track is too sugary for me)
Candlebright vs. For What It's Worth (I love both, it could've been tied with Stevie's younger vocals on Candlebright)
Sorcerer vs. In Your Dreams (I like IYD's energy but find it overall a little bland; Sorcerer OTOH is fabulous even without Stevie's younger vocals, just in a different way)
Planets Of The Universe vs. Wide Sargasso Sea (the emotion of PotU is too major even though it lost some power from the demo version)
Every Day vs. New Orleans (dislike vs indifferent)
Too Far From Texas vs. Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream) :shrug:
That Made Me Stronger vs. Annabel Lee (TMMS is ... not good ...)
It's Only Love vs. Soldier's Angel (Beautiful song! My heart just breaks listening to it)
Love Changes vs. Everybody Loves You (I don't love either one, but LC's verse grates on me)
I Miss You vs. Ghosts Are Gone (Boring song vs fun song)
Bombay Sapphires vs. You May Be The One (YMBTO is epic)
Fall From Grace vs. Italian Summer (no contest, I love angry Stevie)
Love Is vs. Cheaper Than Free (both are forgettable but CTF is more annoying)

Trouble in Shangri-La: 7
In Your Dreams: 6

That makes it seem closer than how I really feel about the albums as wholes, as there are seven tracks on TiSL that I solidly dig, vs 3 on IYD.
