I myself am very warmly inclined (or kindly predisposed?) to the album because it's what rekindled my Stevie Nicks thing. I was sick as hell of her--and of Fleetwood Mac--from the late '80s through the early '90s. Those tours of hers and those TV appearances--Arsenio et al.--turned me off completely. I felt she was completely washed up and I had no more interest in her. I couldn't stand any more angels, witches, sisters of the moon, or unicorns. But the SA album gave me something to hum again and something to play on the piano, and the tour that followed, which I saw at Arco Arena, actually compelled me to look for tapes again in Goldmine and to contact other fans. It was a big turning point year for me. Otherwise, I might not have given a damn about all the Stevie Mac horsepucky. (What other fans considered "magic" on the 1989 album, I considered "muzak"--it was repulsive to these ears, such a plummet from the glorious days of "Rhiannon" & "Dreams.")

So I'm kind of still a big fan of SA, especially "Destiny."

Love it! It's one of the best songs on "Street Angel". The guitar line in this song is what really makes it a hit in my opinion. But lyrically the song is equally successful telling a story about love addiction. "Kick It" is another proof that "Street Angel" project was totally underestimated by fans and critics alike.

Are you sure you're not referring to the remake that Susanna did of Cyndi Lauper's Unconditional Love from A Night To Remember(which is not the same song written by Sandy Stewart)?

You're a pianist, David? Have you shared any of your music on YouTube?

I really want this song on a WORK OUT mix now.

Who said that?
