I think it sounds great on "Crystal Visions" though, because it included more singles from the 90's and 2000's, as well as live cuts and the Deep Dish remix. So "Silver Springs" sits well on that one since there's no predominant "sound" or "era" like "Timespace" in my opinion.
In retrospect, I'm glad Mick didn't let her have it. It made much more sense being included on "The Chain" boxed set.

I have to agree with you on that. I think "Silver Springs" really had no place on "Timespace: The Best of Stevie Nicks". I can't imagine "Silver Springs" fitting into a sequenced set with songs like "Talk To Me", "I Can't Wait" and "Rooms on Fire". Moreover, having a wonderful classic like "Silver Springs" displayed against a backdrop of such HORRENDOUS numbers as "Desert Angel" and "Love's A Hard Game To Play" is simply frightening.
