The Other Side of the Mirror is the only Stevie cd I listen to without skipping any tracks. I just realized this tonite. Go ahead, rip me a new one. <3

LOL! No judgsies.

Although I absolutely cannot stand the music on this album, I do find myself occasionally reading the lyrics as poetry.

I'm sure part of it is the fact that I was a rep for WEA (Warner Elektra Atlantic) when the record came out and I gave away a buttload of promos and did a hell of a lot of displays in record stores around town in support of the record. Good times.

Since joining this forum, my appreciation for SA has increased. I just tweaked the playlist and I find it so much more enjoyable.

What's your fav song from OSOTM?

Since confession does the heart good, I'll confess that even though I have been a long long time Stevie fan, I never bought this album.

Guess I am going to have to expand my horizons!

For me it's always been Bella Donna!

Yes Belladonna is BEAUTIFUL!!! Let's see, I love Long Way To Go and Alice. On the cd, prob Alice is my favorite. It's so dreamy and meandering.......but i adore Doing the Best I Can also.

Just give it a try! My sister adores the cd too. Just accept it for what it is, not what it isn't.

Wow.....I like those songs too! Hmmmm.....I think I'll zip on over to Amazon to order that CD!

This is my favorite song from the album. I would love to see her rework this song, modernize it a little, and sing it live. I think she could perform the hell out of this song.

I agree 100%. Anyone who likes the moody, atmospheric Stevie songs should like this. Completely underrated. And sad.

I love TOSOTM. However, I don't even own I Still Miss Someone anymore. That, and The Nightmare are literally the two tracks I cannot stand of hers.

I think Fire Burning is very underrated. Lyrically, it's fantastic and it has a good beat to sway to. The whole album is very 'synth-magical'. It can put you in a good mood or put you to sleep. That's why I like this album...I can use to to wake up to, or use it to fall asleep.

I really like this album too, especially Two Kinds of Love and Alice.

I agree, Curtis. The whole cd is magical. I also love Juliet!
