Like or Dislike: Fall From Grace
 

I love Fall From Grace!!!! I think it is one of Stevie's best songs, because of the great harmony, fast-paced beat, and i just find the words so catchy!! It is one of the very few songs that describes the highlights of Stevie's music career. Whenever i'm upset, or sad, or just had a bad day, i always end up listening to Fall From Grace to pick me back up when i'm down. It is such a high-energy, upbeat song, and i love it!!!! :]

This song rocks hard. I have to admit, I did not love it at first on the CD - thought it was OK, but nothing too spectacular. But when I saw her do it at the Blockbuster Awards 4/01 w/ Sheryl - holy crap! It's incredible live & I think Stevie really enjoys doing it.

I love most all of the lyrics, but especially:

"High priestess, she's the keeper of the peace in this"

and

"And now alone in my room
As it all begins again
Was I so wrong
Why am I always so intense "

I love love love FFG! I love her piss and vinegar songs directed at Lindsey, particularely this one! :nod:

I LOVE IT!!! This song kicks ass! Like Paula, I admit I initially didn't pay a lot of attention to it but once I heard it live it became one of my favorites and probably my favorite on the album. I just love the intensity of the song, both in the lyrics and how Stevie sings and performs it. I'm really glad she decided to keep this song in the setlist this year.

I didn't like it at all when I first heard it. The more I listened, the better it got. Now it's the first thing I play in my car while going to work. It's a good energy booster the prepare yourself for a 12 hour shift @ the hospital! :nod:

I've loved everything about this song from the first time I heard it! It's my second favorite on TISL (after the title track) and definately one of my all time top 10.

Does anyone else think that parts of this song are directed at Christine? I know Stevie's said it's about Mac, and fame in general. But two things stand out to me:

"well I came all the way here just to watch you walk out that door" Reference to The Dance tour? Just when they got going, Chris wanted to stop. Also:

"It's not enough that you say you love me" - were those exact words put in for a reason? Or is it just coincidence?

Much of the rest of the song is, IMO, directed at LB and/or Mick or the band in general. But nobody ever mentions Stevie ever writing about Chris - ever. Just a thought. :shrug:

I think about this EVERY time I listen to this song. I didn't refrence it to the dance tour specifically but I always think Christine when I hear "say you love me". Now that Stevie has said with Jim Ladd that it is pretty much about lindsey, throwing christine into the mix would make sense as well I think.

I loved this song from the first time I heard it which was the Blockbuster Awards with Sheryl (even though I dont' like her the performance moved me). When I heard it on the album I went crazy and it's different from any other song on the album. I don't understand why this song was not released as a single. It could have been a hit if you ask me. Even the kids who like rock would have loved it. It's definitely a favorite and probably the most rocking song Stevie has written in the past 15 years. I also love the production and the lyrics. What a huge treat it was to see this in Vegas. It's one of those songs I could listen to over and over and never get tired of. Favorite line:

Wake up with a stranger
It's not something you plan
One night in a world of pain
And you finally understand

I love it when she talks dirty! :p

I think CM is in this song because I think this song is more than just about LB - it is about FM and the events leading up to them not extending The Dance tour, which I think was CM's decision (which I think La Nicks was fine with) and the realization that she and LB, for a variety of reasons, could not take their realtionship higher than it was. I do think, however, the walk out the door line is about LB.

I agree but it's still not a favorite.

fabamundo song, especially live, loved that she brought it back for vegas, it is a rockin' song!!!~

I love, love, love this song and I have since the moment I first heard it. My favorite lines are these:

Maybe the reason I say these things
Is to bring you back alive
Maybe I fought this long and this hard
Just to make sure you survive

JUST TO MAKE SURE...MAKE SURE...MAKE SURE...YOU SURVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!

Used to like it...
 

but lately it has become indifferent to me...
