Holy crap I love all these and you hate them! But snaps for revealing you love Silver Girl. I will also say I don't hate it as much as I used to.... some of the lyrics still make me cringe. I can't believe Stevie used "hard core world" "high tech" and "girly girl" in a song. *sigh*


I do love me some OSOTM! Especially Long Way To Go, that song rocks. I love Thrown Down, but only the WOS version. I do like parts of NQA, but as a whole, I can't stand it.

And we *must* be kindred spirits. After all, we're the only folks 'round these parts who will cop to being Melrose fans.

I think Silver Girl is ok and I really like No Questions Asked. Anyway, I know a lot of people don't like Sometimes it's a Bitch but I like it. I used to listen to it all the time. Maybe I like it because it's a Jon Bon Jovi song and I like Bon Jovi.

Default Comments....

"The Second Time" is wonderful and soooo sad. I've always loved that song.

"Red Rover" blows big time, wheras "Silver Girl" is semi-tolerable- hence the former being worse than the latter.

I love "Jane", too. The "through a window all our sorrows will become our only visions, nothing more..." line is very, very touching/crushing. Whoopi-do about the chimp line- yeah, it's kinda lame, but so what....?

"Everybody Finds Out" is probably in my top ten Stevie songs- it's that good.

Default Re: The Most SHOCKING Revelation You'll Ever Hear...

I have to say that I've warmed considerably to "Silver Girl"... though it's never going to be one of my faves, and I'm sure it'll always remain my least favorite of Stevie's contributions to 'Say You Will.'
Her voice is terrific on the song though... very nuanced and effective. And it had a lot of potential, but I think the production definitely does it a disservice... but, Lindsey really can't be wholly faulted for that, since it's probably the way Stevie wanted it to sound.

Oh YES YES YES YES I thought I was the only one, love love love this song

My most shocking revelation is that I would say 'Gate and Garden' is the greatest song EVER recorded, the chorus is so damn catchy and I just love the lyrics!!!

FANTASTIC!!!!

I'm not shocked that anyone likes Silver Girl. I was shocked that it was so detested by many! I like Silver Girl (I dig the instrumentation, especially the beginning, and I love "shadows move across her face"--it really does stick with you) but I still think Red Rover kicks its ass .
I'm another fan of "Jane" despite the chimpanzee line. And I think I'll have to go back and listen to "No Questions Asked" now that I've read this thread. I haven't heard it in months and it never did much for me but now I have to go give it another chance

Welcome To The Room -- one of Stevie's more confessional songs; love the thinly veiled references to Gone With The Wind, Front Line Management, cocaine and the Betty Ford Clinic.

Gate and Garden -- Stevie at her most oblique; nice melody

Only Over You -- An overlooked Christine classic-

That's Alright -- I wish they would perform this live; I really like the very country-fied early version

Hard Feelings -- Not that crazy about Billy Burnette, but this is one of the more redeeming songs from the Behind The Mask album. I have a promo single of it, so it was at least considered for an official single. Read somewhere that Don Henley paid him compliments for it.

PenguinHead, Hard Feelings actually WAS a single...I have the same promo CD single also but I also have a cassette single that has Freedom as the B-side. As good as the song is I was floored at the time it was chosen as the third single from Behind the Mask. The cover of the single has no pic, just a bunch of green red and tan colored stripes...kind of unusual...
