Beautiful Child
Storms
Angel
Sisters of the Moon
Sara

I love everything on Tusk, by all three writers. Some more than others, of course, but this is some of Stevie's best stuff. When I heard BC and Storms again, on vinyl, a couple years ago, I was awed at how beautiful they were. Angel is awesome.

Fireflies - LOVE this song. I just do

Without You - Never liked the recorded version (new or old), but I like it live, and I LOVE the lyrics.The lyrics are reallybeautiful. I think it's pretty amazing that, given all the crap that Lindsey gets thrown at him (people love attacking his character, as if he's the only person who ever made bad choices or did bad things) that someone (other than us Buckheads) looked at him, thought of him, and those words came out. Gorgeous.

Blue Denim - Obviously, I love any song about Lindsey, but this one, though very dated sounding, is still fun to sing along to, in a guilty pleasure sort of way.
Stand Back - Whenever I hear this, I crank it up, and if I'm standing, I will dance.

You May Be The One - I don't like much on her newest album. In fact, I think it's really weird how her most mature, and thoughtful lyrics (IMO) are mostly in her oldest songs. This song, however, stood out for me, and not just because it's about Linds...though that helps

Landslide
She Loves Him Still
The Highwayman
Long Distance Winner
That's Alright

These five songs...see above, regarding mature and thoughtful lyrics. These are so much deeper than her current stuff. So emotional. And it's weird to me (unless I'm screwed up time wise, not being a Stevie fan), that she was so precognizant with regard to her relationship with Lindsey. Anyways, all five are really great songs.

Silver Springs - This is when she shines. Blue green colors flashing is so, how do I explain it. I knew instantly what she meant and loved how she said it. It's just so...and I hate using this word, but...poetic When she gets away from vampires and fairies and unicorns (I'm kidding), and sticks to subjects that more people can relate to, is for me, when she's really good.

Say You Will - I like most of her stuff on SYW, but this is the standout. How anyone can NOT sing along to it is beyond me.

Gold Dust Woman - it's a perfect moody rocker, and it never grows old. Lindsey's guitar and production seal the deal, but it's her song, and I like it.

Gypsy - The lyrics, like with SS, just so perfectly paint a picture. And the melody suits the lyrics perfectly, as well. Though I mostly just listen to Lindsey's guitar (even on the recorded versions), I do in fact, love the song as a whole. One of her best.

Dreams - Not one of my very favorites, though, I do like it, and I wanted to mention it because I always thought it odd how Stevie said Dreams was all full of love and hope or whatever she said, and GYOW was all mean and nasty. I always thought the opposite was more true. GYOW was definitely in your face, but it wasn't all mean. The words to Dreams, however, are stinging! She strung together some awesome lines in this one. Hurtful honest thoughts.

I do like a few more of her songs, as well, but those are my top ones
