Blasphemy!! Stevie's best moments are where she harmonizes with herself.

I LOVE Love Is Like A River - but yes, the vocals by Sharon and Lori are just silly and nearing ridiculous on that song. Whew Hooo... Doing The Best That I Can doesn't spring to mind - admittedly I don't listen to that album but maybe once a year, or once every two years. Cry Wolf is one that does stand out as having overdone backing vocals. Another terrible offender is The Nightmare. Not a lot of songs, but the fact that they stand out so much colors the entire album in my memory. There are no songs on In Your Dreams that are like these songs, thankfully.

I guess I just like backing vocals when they are subtle - as much as Stevie likes to refer to Sharon and Waddy and Lori as the "Stevie Nicks band", they are not a band and I don't particularly care to hear their voices on every song.
