Well, it's better than "I Miss You," if anything.

Ok, now I know that I came on this sooooooo much later than anyone cares to discuss, but I never NEVER want anyone to hear the ear cringing vocals on the verses to this song.

The chorus is great, but a good single this is not! Does anyone else hate the verses and those terrible notes?

When/where is this song from? Was it a TISL outtake?

Not overly impressed. As per usual the verses are stronger than the chorus. Damn I hate that it has to be that way Stevie why lol!

Space Needle however was sadly overlooked and should have been included on TISL.

It's typical Mike Campbell sludge. In typical MC fashion, it's all riffs, but no musical substance. The chorus is about as flat and as dead as a cat on I95. With the exception of "Ghosts," I can't think of a single Mike Campbell collaboration that has a decent chorus.

I was listening to My Heart again today in the car. And thinking, why why why didn't this song make it to TISL? Well, here's what I came up with: I wonder if Stevie herself didn't like how it turned out and so decided not to use it. She's done that before, right? Many a song has required Lindsey's magic after someone else has had a go at it and gone nowhere good. The lyrics are strong, but the instrumentation really bites. Also, I'd LOVE to hear her sing it now. I think her voice has actually improved since she recorded TISL - I'd love to hear it brought down an octave, and maybe taken down a notch in terms of the feel of the song - it's too... 80s rocking right now.

So, bottom line: I think there's hope we may see/hear this song done and recorded again and released, if there ever is another SN or FM album. I think in the right hands, this song could be brilliant. It just hasn't gotten there yet.

It was an obvious attempt to be commercial, so I'm surprised it wasn't included. I do like the song, but I can see how some fans wouldn't like it. She uses a lot of cliches throughout the song and the chorus isn't super original. It's a song that could have been done by Faith Hill, kind of generic (sorry Faith Hill fans!). I do, however, think it's a stronger track than Every Day.

kinda like running through the garden!

i love this song. every part of this song. every verse and chorus and note. even the loud, flashy intro. i think her vocals are particularly strong, especially when pitted against TISL tracks like Love Changes and TMMS.

and Space Needle is near perfection.

My Heart is one of my favorite demos, I even adore the cliche lines like "windows like the eyes to the soul". Why in world did she give us That Made Me Stronger and not this??? Maybe it'll make it on a new Stevie record...

I can just see it being so commercially popular, like something they'd show on the regular VH1 rotations instead of only on the classic one.
