Default Favorite Closer

I love how Stevie is so consistent and ALWAYS closes her album with a ballad or slow song of some sort. They aren't always great ballads or slow songs but it's great she has a system So waht's your favorite Stevie album closing song.

Mine is definitely Beauty and the Beast. Love is, is a close second. And on the oppisite end I Still Miss Someone is my least favorite closer and song ever. And I'm not a fan of HAEWAFY at all!

Definitely The Highwayman. Perfect.

HAEWAFY. It's the one I dislike the least. I don't care for The Highwayman, BatB, I Still Miss Someone or any of the others. I think that Outside the Rain closed Bella Donna.

The Highwayman closes BD, at least on CD.
I don't own the vinyl.

"Beauty And The Beast."

Although "Love Is" and "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You" deserve honorary mention.

(And I rather like "I Still Miss Someone"! )

My pick would be HAEWAFY followed by The Highwayman.

Jaaa. I'm so slow. I meant to say "should have". I think that OTR should've closed BD -_-.

I so disagree! The last line "And still...they try...again..." is the perfect ending, IMO.

I prefer HAEWAFY live. I don't care for the album version, though it's a great song.........

I'd have to pick "Beauty and the Beast," followed by the "The Highwayman."

"Beauty And The Beast" it should be for me too. I love FM's take on it equally but I think that hiring Paul Buckmaster to arrange the strings was a wise move. If she did more stuff like this it would probably be just a pale imitation of the original idea.

"HAEWAFY" is verrry close to that one though. And I like "I Still Miss Someone"; the whistles add some childishness to it.

The remaining three I do not care much for. "The Highwayman" has a cool lilt to it but it's still too ordinary for me (and look! It's the Eagles in there! ).
