I think I like the lyrics in ISFTT more so than the vocals -- they sound a little raspy at times -- like she's struggling to breathe. I loved HAEWAFY in 98' at A Day In The Garden and that was it. I think the reason why I was so touched was because she was an absolute emotional wreck bawling her eyes out. It was an incredibly sweet moment that i'll never forget. You and those keyboards....

HAEWAFY is a beautiful song but it's never been a favorite of mine. I do appriciate the beautiful piano and lyrics and story behind it though. I've always far preferred BATB over HAEWAFY. I'd love to take a poll and see who wins BATB vs HAEWAFY.

It's weird I love the rasp on the songs RAL and She Still Loves Him, but I don't care for it on ISFTT. And that cape line is as bad as anything on Street Angel, IMO.

I think you'll find that B&TB is the winner, here, though neither is a favorite of mine.

she had a certain tone in her voice that was unlike any other era... on tour, she was definately heading towards her worst vocally, but on the album itself, it was pure magic

Oh, come on. Street Angel wins hands down on the velveeta factor (lyrically speaking). *ducks from Curtis* Clearly you've never touched the soul of someone
