I'll say "It's Only Love" because I think that's the one with the best vocal on it. I just love that vocal.

Standouts for me:
"It's Late" - loved when she sang this on the Chris Issak show... I think in another lifetime, she totally could've gone the country route.

"Crash" - LOVE IT! Even more than the original. I think she absolutely nails it.

Oh heck, I like them all!! Except maybe "Circle Dance" just because it's a little too depressing for my liking.

She sure knows how to make a song her own yet not completely destroy the original.

P.S. I voted for "Crash", perhaps because it's fresh in my mind since I've been listening to Soundstage Sessions quite a bit!!

For me it has to be Reconsider Me. Reconsider Me is sooo amazing it hurts. I love the ending with Stevie and Don and a second Stevie singing over everything Reconsider Me NOOO re consider me.... Pure Bliss

Well, I'm a huge Led Zeppelin fan, so hearing my favourite singer perform a song by my favourite band is always a plus. I just had to go with it.

Though, I must say, I do like It's Only Love, Crash into Me, and Circle Dance.

I think 'I Need to Know' is always her best!

I went with "Rock And Roll" because Stevie's at her best when she sings tear the cover off, balls to the wall rockers. Except for "It's Only Love," the best songs she covered are "I Need To Know," "Rock And Roll' and "Face The Promise."

I hate to admit this, but Crash rocks my socks.

Do you hate to admit it because Dave Matthews wrote it?

No. I HATED it when I first heard it. Actually, watching the whole Soundstage on PBS, I cringed. ......but alas....here I am praising it.

Like I said before, I was gone from The Ledge for probably over a year....her press week has turned me back into a chiffonhead. :rolleyes:

I love I Need to Know...
:)

Oh Yeah!

Same ;)

I Need To Know was not recorded and released on an album.

Oh man. I would of much preferred that on soundstage sessions than circle dance :rolleyes:

I prefer "Red River Valley" from her appearance on Chris Issak's show.
