Strand I keep reading your posts and agreeing with all your opinions and imput. :-) "Bitch with an attitude" LOL!

If you had to pick one, and only one, either FM effort or solo what song would you pick as your fav from Mz Nicks?

It likely would be Gypsy. She is just so on her game in that song and LB and FM's production of it astounds to this day. It also had so much influence on me as a kid and later on too.

Sara is also way up there.

Clearly? That's a dismal thought.

Thanks!!

And, for the record and for the infidels who think I blindly defend her (not you Moz) - this is an example of me providing an honest opinon of La Nicks and she stinks here

Welcome to the Room... Sara.

That gets my vote. I don't know what I'd like to win but it's either a Lindsey or Christine song. The only Stevie song that I could see winning it When I See You Again and ever then it's only because it's the least derivative of her three.

How many syllables can be forced into that word?

The music sounds as if it were lifted off of the Muzak on the Lido Deck of the Love Boat.

Mystified to go.

Welcome is in my top 5 Stevie songs. Though I'm not surprised to see the dislike for it. I just love the line "when you hang up that phone...well you cease to exist"

Welcome... is absolutely terrible. Has to go. I'm shocked Family Man is surviving, wasn't that once voted their worst song here?...

Anyways, about Welcome, you can't really blame Lindsey's production on it, no amount of production could save that song. It's absolutely dreadful. Also, wasn't Stevie the person who was at the Tango recordings the least?

Big Love gets my vote (or is it anti-vote?)

Actually I think it should come down to my three fave songs on this album, Caroline, Isn't It Midnight & Seven Wonders. And Isn't It Midnight should win - far and away the best song Christine ever did.

Other than Seven Wonders I tend to agree this is not Stevie's best work. Lindsey and Chris meanwhile had actually started to write something decent (yes I'll take the abuse coming my way for that comment)
