Her Mosty 'Coke'-y Song
 
The SN song that makes my teeth numb just listening to it has to be Mirror Mirror. The title of the song, the insessant and relentless pulsing keyboard combined with the mindless "He said", "Oh well" "not really" lyrics, and her fluttering hyper-nasal incantations just conjure up images of a studio soundboard with one LONG RAIL from the bass knob to high-end knob. Ah...the 80's!!!

What song is the most coke-y to you ?

"I'm SOOOOO HAPPY THAT YOU STAYED"

I think "Imperial Hotel" -- one of my favorites -- is cokier than just about anything I can think of.

LOL! Oh, man. That will always be hilarious to me. I have a sound clip of just that quote somewhere- it used to be my Windows signoff sound 8-10 years ago.

Talk to Me, I Can't Wait, and Sister Honey!!!

Especially in Talk to Me "Is it all that hard, is it all that tough, well now you've taken all my dreams isn't that enough" -------> she says that so fast! And then all the babble at the end!

And I Can't Wait, well I don't think anything needs to be said.

I agree - almost anything from Rock A Little,

Agreed that the RAL album is THE coke album. That's also the album where everything began to fall apart. I really like "Mirror Mirror", it took quite a long time for me to warm up to it, but I really like the song now. Everyone seems to not like "The Nightmare" but when you understand what it's about (which I believe it's about her brief marriage, every single line in the song makes perfect sense in this aspect) the song takes on a whole new feel.

"Mirror Mirror" shares that pentatonic quality in the modulation with "Joan of Arc," "Battle of the Dragon," and even several tracks on "Tango in the Night" (including "Mystified" & "Little Lies"). Methinks there's a connection somehow, perhaps related to the widespread use of the DX-7.

Only silly people don't like "The Nightmare." It's a beautiful, impassioned song, filled with Weberesque mysticism, surrealistic smoking claws, & wild child cries. It's more "Beauty & the Beast" than "Beauty & the Beast" is. Chris Nicks obviously helped Stevie with the wonderful chords. "The Nightmare" represents, like "Dreams," the perfect blending of form & content -- great pop art.

LMAO, Curtis!! I love how you bleeped out the first f***, but not the second. :lol:

As others said, everything from RAL, especially Sister Honey, ICW, and Rock a Little (Go Ahead Lily). Live at Red Rocks is pretty coke induced too. :woohoo:
