Spin-Off: Songs you liked the instant you heard them
 
This was inspired by Amber's comment in the first thread. So, what are the songs that didn't have to grow on you at all? You knew you'd be spinning them again and again after the first listen?

The ones that come into my mind are-
Every Day (my first Stevie love)
Candlebright
Sorcerer
Outside the Rain
Bella Donna
Talk to Me
Sister Honey
Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
Rooms On Fire
If Anyone Falls
Think About It
Kind of Woman
Stand Back
I Need to Know
Gold and Braid
Violet and Blue
Twisted
Long Distance Winner
That's Alright
Gypsy
Rhiannon
Wild Heart
Enchanted
Crying in the Night
Belle Fleur
The Dealer

And there are probably others, too.

First time is the charm!
 
For me the first time I heard, just a couple actually, they really hit me hard!

Crying in the Night
Frozen Love
Landslide
The Chain
Silver Springs (the b-side, original)
Beautiful Child
Storms
Smile at You
When I see you again...


Well, maybe more than a couple :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I knew she wrote these songs with such passion and emotion- each and every one of them, especially the last-

As a child, I heard Rhiannon, Dreams, Sara, Edge Of Seventeen and Gypsy all the time. It wasn't until RAL that I put it all together and became the chiffonhead I am today. Once I started buying her albums, these are the songs I loved from the start:

Kind Of Woman
How Still My Love
The Highwayman
Wild Heart
Enchanted
Nightbird
I Can't Wait (the one that hooked me)
Talk To Me
Imperial Hotel
The Nightmare

When The Other Side Of The Mirror came out, I loved the album entirely. Over the years though, my adoration for most of the songs has faded...I still love Rooms On Fire and Ooh My Love...Alice is still great, but I could do without the rest.

Street Angel....almost all of these took time to grow on me. Kick It is the only song here I loved from the start.

TISL...The title track swept me away the first time I heard it. I love the visual of running through the grass and over the stones...classic Stevie. I loved Fall From Grace from the first listen, and Love Changes as well.

Others on the list:
Sleeping Angel
Gold & Braid
Twisted
Violet & Blue
Blue Lamp
