I suppose so. These certain substances ("of illicit nature", as Graham Chapman would add) are the ones that turn many people into raving Buckingham Nicks fanatics. It's stuff that will allow people to speak of songs like these two middle-of-the-road turds as "bittersweet" and "heartfelt". While I, on the other hand, would say something like: "they got cool arrangement details in them, man!" ;)

I used to love Peacekeeper, but now, it isn't even one of my favs.

It's now Murrow, followed by Come.

My favorites have remained the same ever since the release: "Silver Girl," "Steal Your Heart Away," and "Not Make Believe."

My biggest change is a renewed appreciation for Smile At You. I never disliked the song, but I have always loved the Mirage versions and was disappointed with the new one. But something clicked a few months ago and I totally get it now.

1) Destiny Rules (Put it back in the setlist!)
2) Thrown Down (Both versions)
3) Smile At You
4) Steal Your Heart Away
5) Illume ( :p to all the haters!)
6) Not Make Believe
7) Red Rover
8) Come (Love this even more after the live versions.)
9) Running Through The Garden
10) Everybody Finds Out
11) Miranda (Would be awesome live! I'm surprised they didn't try this one out.)
12) What's the World Coming To
13) Murrow
14) Goodbye Baby
15) Say Goodbye
16) Peacekeeper (Sick of this one)
17) Say You Will (Really sick of this one)
18) Silver Girl (I do like the "Sometimes...she was just an actress..." line and how she sings it. But "girly girl?" Did she have to go there? Sigh.)
19) Bleed To Love Her (Umm...why is it here again? I don't enjoy this any more or less than the Dance version...)

But this list is constantly changing, as it does with all FM albums for me. Who knows, this time next year, Silver Girl might be #1! :lol:

Really? Those voices are what make me love this song. It is very cool and powerful!

As far as changes in what I like about SYW are that I really enjoy listening to Thrown Down and Say Goodbye, which never did anything for me before. Also, I have not heard Peackeeper of Come for months because I always skip these songs (but I used to like them). I also find myself loving WTWCT?, which used to be one of my least favorites. Suprisingly, the title song (which is so catchy and simple, you would think I would hate it by now) is still one of my favorites. RTTG was my favorite rocker on the album and still is! And I have always loved Silver Girl, thank you! :laugh:

My least favorites were Illume and Silver Girl, and they are still my least favorites. To be fair, I have never actually listened to Illume all the way through!! So I should give it another chance.

The only thing that has really changed for me is that it is almost unbearable for me to listen to Goodbye Baby after reading some of the interpretations of the song. If Stevie is really singing about losing her baby, it is just so heart-wrenching and personal that I can't listen. It's amazing that she can "let the world in" like she does. I guess this is another example of why I shouldn't read interpretations and reviews and probably why Stevie and Lindsey both like for people to find their own meanings in the songs.
