Album Points Ranking- Rock A Little
 

Alright, I want to start off by thanking everyone in the interest in the this game. I've gotten PM's about when the Rock A Little round was going to start. NOW THE TIME HAS COME!!!

But first, the official final Wild Heart Standings:


1. Wild Heart- 540
2. Nightbird- 507 (-33)
3. Nothing Ever Changes- 444 (-96)
4. If Anyone Falls- 444 (-96)
5. Beauty and the Beast- 433 (-107)
6. Sable on Blond- 432 (-108)
7. Stand Back- 428 (-112)
8. Enchanted- 357 (-183)
9. I Will Run To You- 351 (-189)
10. Gate and Garden- 347 (-193)

As you can tell, the standings overall on Wild Hear were MUCH closer than Bella Donna. So, Wild Heart and Nightbird will be automatically in the finals round. Keep in mind, that after we go through all of the albums, there will be a Wild Card Round, where the 3rd and 4th place songs in every album will face off against each other, and we will have the top 2 in that round moving on to the finals as well!

Now onto Rock A Little- Starting with My Rankings:

1. I Can't Wait- 50
2. Some Become Strangers- 45
3. Sister Honey- 40
4. Imperial Hotel- 35
5. The Nightmare- 30
6. If I Were You- 27
7. No Spoken Word- 24
8. Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You- 21
9. Talk To Me- 18
10. Rock A Little- 15
11. I Sing For The Things- 12


That was hard as hell. Just so you know, for me, all of these songs are so similar sounding, that it was pretty difficult for me. This really isn't my fave Stevie album (however I do love it all the same) it was just very difficult for me to rank these. I'm thinking the standing on this one will be EVEN closer!!

Look forward to seeing how this turns out!!! Vote away~!!!!!

I love Rock a Little, but I find myself taking "I Can't Wait" and "Talk to Me" for granted. They've kinda got the same vibe going, they were hits, so I don't really rank them that high -- even though I love them!

1. I Sing for Things - 50
2. If I Were You - 45
3. Some Become Strangers - 40
4. Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You - 35

See, THAT is why I did the points system the way I did, because those kind of things show more in a system like the one we're using. I know the math makes us think for a little, but THAT is why!!! :) :nod:

This was harder than the others. After doing this, I realized there are a lot of OK songs on this album...but just ok.

WHAT!? :eek:

Somehow I knew I'd get a response like that. :laugh: Over the years, I have grown to absolutely love thit song. I like the lyrics and the somewhat 'dark' side to it, and in a way I can completely relate to being 'taken prisoner' by dreams/nightmares...especially nightmares. I've dealt with them for a very long time. I can also relate to having part of your life, that you once thought was a dream, become a complete 'nightmare'. :shrug:

Thats pretty cool actually :thumbsup:

But I still don't like it lol. I don't think it comes anywhere near as close to being top as If I Were You, No Spoken Word etc

It's alright- I feel ya! I adore the song too!!!! :nod:

^^ Actually I never understood why so many people don't like this song. I love it though it ended up on a pretty bad place in my scores. Rock a Little just has way too many great songs :D.

The words are good, but the arrangement of the song is odd to me.

Dude- then WildHeart posted again, updating the score!!!
