This is very true for me as well. Sad Angel is the clear keystone of this release, it really does feel like a single release rather than an EP, to me. If it were framed it that way, I might be more okay with my relatively lacklustre response to a lot of the other material.

Because you realize the song sounds better that way. Stevie and Lindsey harmonize well together, but their harmonies don't always make for the best possible production choice in every line of every song, and you can't always immediately tell where they'll end up fitting well. I'm inclined to think she chose Miss Fantasy too.
