I guess there are exceptions to every rule. Desert Angel is one of them.

Hey I happen to love Silver Girl. I liked it the first time that I heard it. I love the "you cannot see her soul line". There is something about the way that Stevie sings that line that sounds like the younger version of her voice. I also love Desert Angel so I guess I am in the minority here. There really arent too many Stevie songs that I can say I dont really like except for When I See You Again. That one is just terrible but I love all the rest.

Although there are no credits on the liner notes indicating this, I have a strong vibe that Sharon and Lori are singing background on 'Silver Girl'. Is this possible, or is it just layering of Stevie's vocals? I kind of like this song, I think it has a wispy sort of a relaxing type sound. It's not on my top 10 worst Stevie songs list, anyway. :wavey:

I didn't see the xmas panel lux, but im guessing it was good they are always funny.

As for Silver Girl, i can honestly say I don't dislike any Stevie song, and this is actually more one of my faves as opposed to an unfave.

When I first read that Stevie had a new song called "Silver Girl," I was a little... concerned.
"Silver Springs"... "Sweet Girl"... "Silver Girl".... Eek! :shocked:

Then I had an opportunity to read the lyrics before the album came out, and I really dug the song.

Then I HEARD the track, and I was back to not being wild about it.

I guess when I read the lyrics, I pictured this really perky, fun song... something like a latter-day "Enchanted" or "I Don't Want To Know."
So the whole semi-ballad thing threw me for a loop.

But I have since come to really enjoy the track, and while I'd still be inclined to agree that it's Stevie's "weakest" song on 'Say You Will,' I don't think it's bad at all. Just not quite as amazing as her other tracks. :)

(P.S., add me to the list of people who want to get their greedy little hands on Stevie's original demo version.)

I totally agree with you Brian.

I for one, am more eager to hear Stevie's demo of Illume...

WOW r we a little bitter?!?!? :shrug: ~

As some people have already said, it's really difficult for me to find any Stevie songs that I really hate. This song is alright. The lyrics are a little cheesy and the production is a little iffy, but in the end, everything comes together and I can appreciate it. The chorus does have a nice ring to it, if there's anything I really like a lot about this song. Yes, the flute is still in the album version. Just listen. It has a nice harmony effect. ;)

I don't mind Silver Girl, in fact I really like the lyrics, but i wish the music behind them had more bounce, a bit more like how Sweet girl had bounce...Otherwise it's just a song that kinda ranks in the middle for me. :cool:

Are Stevie and Sheryl still friends? For awhile they were glued at the hip. Now I haven't seen or heard anything about their friendship.

strandinthewind 12-29-2004 07:52 PM

I am sure they are - but as La Nicks has said many a time - when FM calls - there is little time for anyone or anything else - plus La Crow has a BF - which tends to sep. friends a little. Finally, La Crow had her own stuff to promote last year.
