Do you like all of these? Just curious.
I'm listening to All Over You right now, which is interesting. There's a funky beat going on here that I never found in evidence in Stevie's songs before. Unfortunately, the execution doesn't live up. It is odd, though, so I'm glad I have it. It sounds very early 90's late 80's. I expect the theme to "In Living Color" to come up at any moment.
My favorite? Amber, of course!

No, I don't like them all. But I can appreciate something in each one - a few lines here and there, the inflection or emotion in her voice either on a single note or entire song. Plus, I couldn't count how many evenings I've spent with my best friend listening to them in random order as I'd come across a new batch somewhere on the Web. So those memories are all tied up in there too.

I still can't believe All The Beautiful Worlds was abandoned - that chorus just kills me. And I love that we know now that she stole the "You say you're leavin baby..." lines from that B/N Telephone song that popped up last year.

I do understand about the "beat execution". When 24 Karat Gold starts out, I think, "OOOH! This is gonna be hot!" and I start looking around the room for my dancin' shoes. Then the clunky keyboards start in.
