By Request: Rank Stevie's 10 best Single Covers
 

There's no way I'm arranging all of her singles in a list, but my 10 favorite designs are:

1. Planets Of The Universe
2. Edge Of Seventeen
7. After The Glitter Fades
4. Leather And Lace
5. If You Ever Did Believe
6. Whole Lotta Trouble/Love's A Hard Game To Play
7. Stand Back ('83)
8. Long Way To Go
9. Secret Love
10. Reconsider Me

With an honorable mention to the Gypsy single, though I haven't been all that impressed with most of FM's single covers.

I love this thread idea!!! In order from my personal favorite to my least (but still) favorite...

1. Nightbird, Nightbird, NIGHTBIRD! :nod:
2. After The Glitter Fades
3.Sorcerer
4. Planets Of The Universe
5. Leather & Lace
6. Edge Of Seventeen
7. If Anyone Falls (Japan)
8. Secret Love
9. Two Kinds Of Love (Australia)
10. I Can't Wait

I will need some pictures to remind me. I'm doing good knowing what The Dealer cover is.

I was originally going to do the Top 10, but figured what the hell -- might as well do the entire set.
Also, I stuck with US covers, since those are the ones I have in my collection.

1. Edge of Seventeen
2. After The Glitter Fades
3. Stand Back
4. If You Ever Did Believe
5. Whole Lotta Trouble
6. Sorcerer
7. Reconsider Me
8. Nightbird
9. Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You
10. Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind
11. Secret Love
12. Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
13. The Dealer
14. Every Day
15. Leather & Lace
16. Planets Of The Universe
17. I Can't Wait
18. Blue Denim
19. Talk To Me (ranked low, since it's just a rehash of the 'Rock A Little' cover)
20. Love's A Hard Game To Play
21. Two Kinds of Love
22. If Anyone Falls
23. Rooms On Fire
24. Sometimes It's A Bitch
25. Crash Into Me

Nightbird cover is AMAZING!

While it's my favorite lead single from her albums, I feel like Rooms On Fire has the worst cover art of anything she's ever released.

US released Single Covers

Edge Of Seventeen
I Can't Wait
Stand Back
Nightbird
After The Glitter Fades
Planets Of The Universe
Everyday
Rooms On Fire
Sometimes It's A Bitch
Two Kinds Of Love
Reconsider Me
Maybe Love Can Change Your Mind
If You Ever Did Believe
Stop Dragging My Heart Around
The Dealer - Even though I despise the white blouse thingy, I love the crudeness of this Polaroid! It really captures her raw attitude and equally fried hair = RAL realness! Very Fitting attitude/image for this song.


Talk To Me, HAEWAFY, Crash, Whole Lotta Trouble, If Anyone Falls, Loves A Hard Game To Play, Blue Denim, Secret Love, Leather & Lace, etc., are all blasé to me. I don't even care to bother ranking them.

Reconsider Me - so sexy!
After The Glitter Fades
Nightbird
Stand Back
Edge of 17
If Anyone Falls
Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You

The rest....didn't make the list.

This is hard, she hasn't had many great single covers.

My top 10:

1. Edge of Seventeen - I know it looks like she's sniffing her armpit, but I love the purple and her outfit
2. Nightbird - I would LOVE a poster of this cover
3. Stand Back
4. Planets of the Universe
5. After the Glitter Fades
6. Talk to Me
7. Stop Dragging My Heart Around
8. Two Kinds of Love - Great cover, rubbish song
9. Every Day
10. Secret Love

Worst:

Sorcerer - It looks like she was wobbling or trying squat when the person took the picture
Rooms on Fire - Nice boobs, shame about everything else
Has Anyon Ever Written Anything for You - That hat!

The Wild Heart era had a lot of really cool imagery. I love the Rock a Little album cover (that's why Talk to Me is placed 6th on my list) but the single covers are pretty rubbish considering some of the awesome photoshoots that took place during that period. Most of her 1990s covers are just..meh.

LOL. That about sums it up. :laugh:
