TISL:
1. Trouble In Shangri-La- One of my all-time favorites and the best lyrics ever written by Stevie.
2. Candlebright- I like it, but it's not a fave. It seems a little overlong.
3. Sorcerer- Perfection. I love Sheryl Crow on this.
4. Planets of the Universe- I much prefer the extended version, but both versions rock. Another one of Stevie's best.
5. Every Day- No thanks.
6. Too Far From Texaaaaaasssssss- One of the worst she's ever recorded.
7. That Made Me Stronger- Another stinker.
8. It's Only Love- Fantastic. I think it would've been phenomenal if it had just one guitar and Stevie's voice, though. A gem.
9. Love Changes- Blech. I hate everything about this song, with the exception of the last two lines, they're great lyrics.
10. I Miss You- Amazing. It should've been a single.
11. Bombay Sapphires- Love it! I love how their voices blend together.
12. Fall From Grace- I love it, too. Great vocal and great lyrics.
13. Love Is- I love the demo, I hate the album version.
SYW:
3. Illume- I love the vocal, Lindsey's guitar, and a few particular verses. The "trade you for diamonds" verse is a favorite of mine; it's beautiful.
4. Thrown Down- I've stated my thoughts on it many a time before.
7. Say You Will- The radio version is better than the album version, but I like it. Very catchy and sweet. it could've been a massive hit if it was promoted right.
10. Smile At You- Love it! Powerful vocal and it's better than the demo. Lindsey did it so differently and I love it.
11. Running Through the Garden- I adore it, but it pales in comparison to the demo. I want the dueling vocals back.
12. Silver Girl- I hated it at first, but it's grown on me. I listen to it now.
15. Everybody Finds Out- The best vocal she's ever recorded. She hits notes I didn't think she could hit.
16. Destiny Rules- Love the lyrics, but she sings it in her granny voice. I do, however, like the opening vocal.
18. Goodbye Baby- Beautiful.
