JK, everyone has the right to their opinions (no matter how wrong they are)

I also can't say I really HATE any song, but I usually skip:

Thousand Days
RAL (big disappointment to me after BD & WH - I thought ALL her title songs should be incredible)
Street Angel (uh, see above)
Desert Angel (same as Le Stew, I LOVE it up til the shouting at the end)
Kick It
Whole Lotta Trouble (I think it's those damn horns...)
Paper Doll
ALICE
I Sing For The Things
Freedom (I don't get people's love for this one - lyrics are good, but the music is horrendous)
Fire Burning
I Still Miss Someone
Every Day
I Miss You
HAEWAFY (I'm with ya, Kelly. I'll listen to most live versions, I do like her "NOTHING!" at the end, but I never bother with the album version)

Kick It? you don't the the good song off street angel? don't even get me started on i sing for the things, i can't believe there's another hater. how could you not like that song? And Fire Burning? once again, soul crying.

Cry if you must. But I cannot tell a lie.

Kick it? Are you serious? What is she kicking? You can kick love? How do you kick love? Like, kicking a habit? (BTW, Amber I assume you've not been puffing? 72 hours...) Lyrics yuck, music yuck.

Fire Burning - mediocre

I Sing For the Things - ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz.

i can't believe you''re trying to dissect Stevie's lyrics as a condition for liking the song.. I just liked it cause it rocked, and she wailed on it, and it was more dynamical then a lot of the Street Angel songs. I Sing For the THings. i usually like fast songs, but to me that song is so heartfelt, and heartbreaking. and pretty short and concise, which is good. Yes, i'm at my parents. A puff would sure be great right now. My mom is watching Jessye Norman (the opera lady) sing an Xmas song with a trumpet player for accompaniment. it's like, strident times two...

[MACFAN]

Docklands

Jane (ya see I like this song...if only she left out 'the forgotten chimpanzee", otherwise it's kind of spiritual in a sense)

[The Catdancer]

Leather & Lace
The Highwayman
That's Alright
I Will Run To You
I Sing For The Things
Fire Burning
Two Kinds Of Love
Still Miss Someone
Love's A Hard Game To Play
Paper Doll
No Questions Asked
Almost everything on Street Angel except for BD and Greta
Silver Girl
Say You Will
Rhiannon (Enchanted version)

Debbie

[Vianna]

This thread is so interesting-there's a Lindsey one too over on the Lindsey ledge..some of the choices I would agree with but others are some of my favorite songs-like Jane, for instance..

I don't think I hate any of her songs but I am unimpressed with:

Seven Wonders
Everybody Finds Out
Illume
Street Angel in general, with the exception of Jane, Destiny and Rose Garden
After the Glitter Fades
Enchanted
Welcome to the Room Sara

When I say unimpressed I don't mean I don't like the song, but rather that I think she's done better if you know what I mean.

[amber]

Ha Ha, you like Jane, Destiny, and Rose Garden!!!!! I consider those about the most craptastic ones offa Street Angel. How funny!!!

[Mageboy25]

GARBO-BARFO---Well at least I had a bathroom song on the Enchanted Tour
Every Day
Sorcerer
Too Far From Texas
Tow Kinds Of Love
Imperial Hotel

[The Tower]

Here are the worst.... in order- starting with the worst one of all...

The Nightmare
Greta
Love Changes
Docklands
That Made Me Stronger
Cry Wolf
Love's a Hard Game to Play
Mirror, Mirror
Sister Honey
Paper Doll
Some Become Strangers
Sometimes It's a Bitch
Unconditional Love
Just Like a Woman
Thrown Down
Imperial Hotel
Sorcerer
How Still My Love

Actually, the top five are equally vile. "The Nightmare" wins only because she took so many great Tusk images and **** all over them with a horrible synth background and terrible background vocal passages- AND took those images and drained them of any relevance and coherency.

Someone shoulda just smacked her and said "Snap out of it!!!" before she released that piece o'****.

[Kelly]

Everybody Finds Out? I LOVE that song. Wow it is so interesting how people have such vastly different tastes. Amber, I really like "I Sing for the Things" too..something about her voice is so vulnerable and innocent sounding. I also like Fire Burning as well......

[DeeGeMe]

Egads! I've just compiled my list and it's longer than Dissention's! And I'm a Chiffon Head and love Stevie to the ends of this earth! But after carefully reviewing the songs on my I-Pod--it's a lot longer list that I thought it would be:

Hate:
The Nightmare (yes, it is a nightmare)
Desert Angel
Sable on Blonde
Thousand Days
Somebody Stand by Me (not as long as you're singing that song, I'm not)
Imperial Hotel (That's one hotel I hope to never have to check into)
Docklands (Stevie as a working class girl--uh, NO).
Sister Honey
Fire Burning (I wish that this song would have burned up in that fire)
When I See You Again (sounds like a therapy session committed to vinyl)
Battle of the Dragon (Someone needs to slay the Dragon & this song)
Ooh My Love (ooh what a horrible song)
Street Angel
Sorcerer (love a couple of the demo versions out there though)

Dislike:
Love's a Hard Game to Play
Reconsider Me (it's not a horrible version but I love the late, great Warren Zevon so much that anything less than his version just doesn't cut it for me)
Listen to the Rain
That Made Me Stronger
Jane (parts of this song I love, but the chimpanzees????)
Love Changes
Blue Denim
Running Through The Garden (I can't run away fast enough from this one)
Some Become Strangers
Bombay Sapphire (love the demo version of this that's floating around out there, hate the album version)
Kind Of Woman (I have a love/hate relationship with this song)
Just Like A Woman (Just shoot me now)
Greta
Rose Garden

And I haven't even compiled a list of the dreadful demos like Goldfish and the Ladybug. . . .

My CD has it as two words.

I'm a bit surprised at all the people who don't like "Sorcerer." I thought that was one everyone liked.

Let me just say "Amen!"

I can’t remember the name of the song, but I’ve forced myself to listen to it a lot. It’s really not that bad.
