I chose a single white rose. Not a STELLAR song, but so simple and sweet. So summing up her choices, IMO. One of the last songs that choked me up upon hearing it for the first time, and getting the lyrics. It's not dippy, just sentimental and true. Live it was phenomenal.

Love it. Symbolic of what stevie gave up and gained in becoming a super star, IMO.

on edit--just read what garbospeaks said right before me, and I just said the same thing. So just say I agree but like the song a little more.

Worst song Stevie's released EVER! I used to hate this song, now I just strongly dislike it. I love just about every single song of Stevie's but not this stinker.

on my list of gross and not pretty things, well... this song isn't on it.

on my first listen of Street Angel, Rose Garden was tied for Mariel's Favorite Song with Greta. when Enchanted came out, i was so psyched that it was on there. pretty, simple, yes.

no, I think I called on them for the opposite point. As in "I even like these songs, but I still can't stand rose garden"

Blah blah, blah, anyway, I made up a cd of stevies almost and country "tinged" songs, and gave it to acouple of them they all loved rose garden, and wanted to hear more!
Again, just like with my "stevie inspirational" Mixed cd I gave to some crazy people at church, Worked like a charm!

Rose Garden is one of Stevie's greatest musical accomplishments. It is a true gem, a full-fledged country-western song and I wish it was still a part of her set. The Rock A Little demo, which I am particularly fond of, is beautiful. I'm amazed that this song was written in 1965. Stevie would have been only sixteen or seventeen years of age. I wonder if she wrote the music with that Goya guitar her parents gave her as a birthday gift.
