This surprises me. At least where I lived at the time in the Philly area, there was a lot of advance talk on the radio about it. I remember once catching the tail end of a conversation wheres the DJs were saying that they were so happy that the new album was going to include this song that she had been doing for years in her live set. I thought maybe it would be "I Need to Know" - to this day I don't know what song they were talking about.
Also, "Rolling Stone" used to talk about Stevie pretty regularly in those days, and at one point it said that she had completed three songs with Kenny G, including "Dial the Number" & "Don't Treat Me Like a Stranger", for the new album.

Back in '89 I remember hearing, "Two Kinds of Love" on a soft rock station back home (Buffalo, NY) and really didn't think much at the time, but thinking back now, none of the songs from TOSOTM made it to the local rock station, 97 Rock.

When Mirror was released I had just started to collect Stevie (& FMac) (really '88) so I was excited to have a 'new' LP to hear after hearing all the previous at that point. Yes, it was different but for me Mirror is special it always will be ....I recall seeing ROF on MTV than and all the UK interviews. Getting all the 12" singles with picture covers and the 45/ps etc. It really made it awesome to be a Stevie fan & to be collecting back than. Personally, RAL, is the disappointment to me more so than Mirror just because of 'all' the songs she recorded for it and for the mess that it was with all the producers etc. Yeah, SA isn't my favorite either but I tell ya that tour was a ROCKING tour and Stevie's voice was awesome!! I didn't get to see her for Mirror solo (missed it) but did for the Mask tour--thats another story. So every LP has its ups & downs. We all love what we love and theres nothing wrong in that is there!! Its all good!!

Just out of curiosity, what songs from Bella Donna do you skip?

From Belladonna I skip Still of the Night (its just very sleepy for me) and sometimes Kind Of Woman. Even in concert, this is when I go get a drink. Sometimes I listen to them, but usually I skip them.

i usually skip "Think About It" ... i know a lot of people love it...but i just never have? poetically it's okay..there's just something about the music i don't like... love the rough/demo take on expanded Rumours tho

[LittleSpacey]

I LOVE to sing along to Think About It, but I sometimes skip it too. A lot of these I skip now I think I may have overplayed in the past and burned out on. I remember listening to the entire Belladonna record non-stop. I'm sure its natural.
