A tie between Talk To Me and Somebody Stand By Me.

It's Only Love. A darn fine song.

Agreed. Also, my beloved Some Become Strangers.

Same here. Actually, I don't care for many of the songs that aren't hers (Talk to Me, Seven Wonders, etc)

ontheEdgeof17 07-12-2005 09:02 PM

Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind

I Will Run To You

Some Become Strangers


....just to name a few

I don't care for them either. They rarely seem to fit in thematically and quality-wise with the rest of the material (Too Far From Texas, Every Day, Docklands, Talk To Me, etc.).

GateandGarden 07-12-2005 09:11 PM

#1 fave she didn't write is "Every Day," no contest.

Also "Seven Wonders" and "Talk to Me"

Stevie_Buck 07-12-2005 09:21 PM

Gonna get flack for this one... :shrug:

...Sometimes It's a Bitch. :rolleyes:

Naw, we can form a club, with just two people - The Two People Who Like SIAB Club! :lol:
Sesly, I like it quite a bit. :)

I also love SIAB! I love that it was written specifically for, and about, Stevie. Don't know if it's my fave, I have to ponder on that one...

diamondsnake 07-12-2005 09:32 PM

I forgot about Sometimes it's a Bitch and I forgot about Seven Wonders. I love those songs too.

Yay! three members! It's not my fave, either, but I like it. It seems so simple and true, to me. :p And great for Stevie, as well. I'm kind of sorry she herself doesn't like it, if that's true. And the video is great, what with all those clips. mmmm, clips.

krrrby 07-12-2005 09:33 PM

I'm such a rock-a-little-nut :lol:

I think so, too, but I also think Stevie's version is a highlight on TISL. :nod:

I'm suprised you like that song so much. :confused: Now I'm imagining you meeting your match while passing round the candle light. :laugh: Sesly, though. I like it okay, it's better than other TISL songs. Plus, it's all sappy..."ah, if only love comes round again..." :laugh: That's so cute you like this song. :D

Another fan here of SIAB! I like some Bon Jovi so that probably has something to do with it. I also like some Poison but I've never been able to really get into Love's a Hard Game to Play.

DrummerDeanna 07-12-2005 09:58 PM

I? LOVE Sometimes It's a Bitch :nod: Love it.

So that would be my favorite followed by:

Somebody Stand By Me
Everyday
Seven Wonders

I think this line is perfect for Stevie! She's always all "we met at a party and our eyes locked across a crowded room... it was magic and we just knew." It's such a sweet, spare song. Still... I love Seven Wonders from my youth, so while not the better song, it's my favorite. That's my vote.

I love it. Great lyrics, sparse instrumentation (compared to some of the dense sludge on TISL), and a great vocal from Stevie. Sounds like she smoked a pack of cigs beforehand, but it suits the song.

Sheryl's version, though, wow. What a knockout. :nod:

I've never heard Sheryl's. But you think those are great lyrics? surpised, me. I mean, I don't think they're that bad, but...
I figured a lot of what you liked might be the sparse instrumentation, though. :nod:
and, hey, when does stevie not sound like she smoked a pack? :lol:
I like it okay, but, strangely, it's a bit sappy for me. Or maybe I just don't love the note choice. I dunno. It's pretty good, though. :nod: I like it okay. TISL is not my favorite album, anyway, so it's hard to judge.

rbs3676 07-12-2005 10:16 PM

Stop Draggin' My Heart Around get's my vote.
What can I say? Petty rocks... :wavey:

rbs

diamondsnake 07-12-2005 10:18 PM

I love Gold and Braid!

I know Stevie wrote that song, but I just thought I'd let everyone know that it's my favorite song in the world.

diamondsnake 07-12-2005 10:19 PM

Okay everybody hold it!!! I had no idea Tom Petty wrote "I Will Run To You" so that song gets my vote.

catinthedark 07-12-2005 10:21 PM

Sign me up for that Sometime's It's a Bitch club... love the song - LOVE the video even more.

But it's not my fave not-written-by-her. That would have to be I Will Run To You, followed closely by Stop Draggin My Heart Around, Talk to Me, and Seven Wonders.

jwd 07-12-2005 10:26 PM

Stop Draggin' My Heart Around, ooooh ooooh oooooooooh

Docklands just plain rocks. Give it another listen LiquidBlue and maybe it will turn you on this time. Or maybe I'm just wierd. I've always loved the song.

CreepingDeath 07-12-2005 11:01 PM

My favorite: I Will Run To You

Others-

Some Become Strangers <3
Seven Wonders
It's Only Love

svnwndrs 07-12-2005 11:02 PM
