With You On My Mind aka Stars...
 
Check it out, "Stars Are Crazy" is Lisa Dewey's song "With You On My Mind"...

Wait, what?

Color me confused.

Let's hope LB gives proper credit on the CD.

Wow, i wasn't expecting that. I really thought those were his lyrics. Bummer.

Shut Us Down
 
I always wondered whose version of Shut Us Down came first, Lindsey's or Corey Sipper's. Lindsey shared writing credit with her on Under The Skin and the Elizabethtown soundtrack.

although stars are the last on my list from 6 new songs we've heard, i have to say his version is a vast improvement on the 2004 original.

and, i'm actually glad that most of the words are not his... was briefly worried about the state of his marriage after hearing that one;).

Interesting....
 
I like the melody of the song, but good gravy, she is a terrible singer. :shocked:

Just looked at her website and she put out an album called.....wait for it....Busk. HA! :laugh:

Awwww, darn. It's not the same if he didn't write it, especially since that was a stand out song.

I hope he wrote, In Our Own Time.

LBFan, Cory's song came first. Someone posted her lyrics so that we could compare them to Lindsey's a few years ago. It was interesting to see his changes. Michele

OMG, that song by her is pure awful. :distress:

She should be glad an artist of Lindsey's caliber was able to rescue it from being another track you skip over or ignore.

But enquiring minds still want to know why he chose it, right? ;)

Hey, I've heard this song before! I have yet to listen to LB's version, though. I definitely want to hear the album version before I listen to the live one.

This pleases me. I must have been one of the few die-hard Lindsey fans on here who actually couldn't care less for Stars... It might grow on me like Time Precious Time did, but the 1st time I heard it I thought it was a bit annoying, again like Time Precious Time, I thought it was far too oriented on showing off what he could do with his fingers, without really having a nice melody. Unlike Seeds We Sow, which is a really pretty yet skillful composition.

Maybe for the same reason he chose Teen Beat. :p

No certainly, as with Try for the Sun and Shut Us Down the minds inquire endlessly.

Stars
 
I'm glad he chose it, for whatever reason. My wife and I were drawn to the song right away. Can't wait to hear album version.:woohoo:
