I like (not love) all of Say You Will...except Red Rover and Come.
Red Rover has some complicated stuff going on, but it just annoys me to no end. About half-way through I say "No." and press the button to skip it. It's the chorus, I think, if I had to pinpoint my annoyances.
Come I don't like because of the slow-MANIC-slow-MANIC verse and chord structure.
The rest of the album is technically great but Stevie's *soul* is completely lacking from all of her songs.
