A what now? I've never heard of this, I'd definitely be very interested in hearing it if anyone could post it!

I thought, for the longest time, that Christine was singing on RTTG. It turns out that Lindsey likes to impersonate both female singers, I guess

I'm listening to it now. I guess it's just the album version with LB's lead vocals stripped off. I have no idea ~ I've never once listened to any of his songs on Say You Will. The only reason I uploaded this to my iTunes is because it was labeled as "Miranda (Stevie Vocals)". I think it's just her backing vocals, minus LB's leads. And a bunch of his whining near the ending.

OMG you are missing out. Lindsey's songs on SYW are stellar! He should of made it his solo album.

Okay, I will try to post this weird outtake mix of "Running Through The Garden" from Say You Will tomorrow. Very different...

Don't bother trying to sell me on him, it won't work. His songs are thankful beer & bathroom breaks for me in between Stevie's songs in concert.

No offense to his fans, but I'm not, nor will I ever be one.

Also found a cool alternate mix of "Say You Will" as well!!!!

Running Through The Garden is hands down one of my favourite Stevie songs.. Any version.. But then I also love the SYW version of Smile At You

Dude I'm an avid Stevie fan and Lindsey isn't my favourite but man oh man are his songs on SYW something to write home about..
Any chance that album had with my gen was with his songs, not that, that makes them great songs in itself

No offence to Stevie and her enormously fantastic songs on SYW..

Love RTTG. It's one of my favorite songs on SYW. Love everything about it and especially Lindsey's guitar solo at the end. Stellar!

Out of Stevie's SYW songs, I'd arrange them in this order:

Truly great Stevie songs:
Thrown Down
Say You Will
Illume

Very good Stevie songs:
Destiny Rules
Smile At You

Decent Stevie songs:
Goodbye Baby
Not Make Believe
Everybody Finds Out

Okay Stevie song:
Running Through The Garden
Silver Girl

I think the production mars "Silver Girl", making it slow, ponderous and boring. I just couldn't get into the melody of "Running through the Garden"...it just seems like lots of guitars, strange garden metaphors, and there's really nothing that mystical or poetic about it.

We talking bout the same song?? Perhaps it's because your not "getting" the garden metaphors that you find it "so-so"..

But as was said "different strokes for different folks"

Running Through The Garden is Viv's favorite SN song on SYW. Murrow Turning Over In His Grave is Viv's favorite LB song on SYW.

The album should have been titled: Steal Your Heart Away

I"ll get butchered for this but i cannot stand Illume and Say You Will is a weak, watered down AOR track.
