Default The Best Song Stevie Ever Wrote!!!!!!

"Well you're a front liner...
You put it all on the line
And you're a gambler...
You turn lucky every time

Ooh, you're consistent...
Hey, and that's good!!
And you're persistent...
Well I am overcome

Well you're not like anyone else
You're just an instant flash of light
That shines through the night like a lighthouse....


Well you're a victim...
Phantom of the opera!!!!
And you've been everywhere...
And you live in dark shadows
You do what you want to...
There's no Beauty and the Beast here
No... no..... no!!!
There's no Beauty and the Beast here!!!"

If she does this in Vegas I'll plotz!!!

kidding, right?! Me and Diss always joke about this song. Although, truth be told, as far as SA goes, it's one of the ok ones. At least it's fast and has a beat.
oh, and Towie? You're my Frontliner....
Stevie sure is fabulously weird and unpredictable, isn't she? <3. *as i listen to the lyric "rock and roll, ballerina, where else will she go?"

AlllRight Baybeh! well alright!!!

I'm not really a fan of that song. At first, I was like, "Hey this is fun and upbeat and stuff," but the lyrics really bother me.

Hey, no one understands why I like "Love Changes" and "Every Day."

HEY, and that's good!!!

What a winner that song is. Deborah Harry singing it in the nude couldn't get me to like it.

You two assholes are the reason why this ****er has been stuck in my head for the last two weeks!!! I'll be sitting on the can and all of sudden, "No, no, NO!!! There's no Beauty and the Beast here" pops into my head and I'm insta-pissed!!!

I guess that's cuz I put it all on the li-hine and HEY! That's good!!

OY!!!!

You know, waaaayyyy back in 1993 when I bought Street Angel, I actually liked this song...... kinda.

Now.... HELLO!!! Fahgetabouttittt... OY!!! The "light that shines through night like a lighthouse" is the part that, for some unknown reason, bugs me more than the "hey, that's good", "phantom of the opera", or the "no, no, no B&B" stuff. Although that last one is in contention for the Worst Stevie Lyric Award.

You poor dear. But I suppose it's better than sitting on the can and having "Ooh, it's just like a river, it's neverending" pop into your head.

One of the worst, but the staring at the stairs line is probably my worst one. Good christ, that one makes me want to insert a douche into my ears to clean them out.

The first time I got Street Angel, I think I sat there with my mouth open until Destiny came on and then had to turn it off for fear of getting violent towards my CD player. And, mind you, I was only, like, 15 at the time and even then I knew **** when it hit my ears.

Tip - Love Changes and Everyday suck.
just teasing you, dear. I mean, I think they suck, but far be it from me to judge someone's Stevie tastes. it's near impossible, as far as I can figure. The only constant I have found, is that everyone loves Edge. right? any Non-Edge-lovers out there?

I knew you'd point that out. I hope your staying in Vegas until Friday!

Of course, Miss Joshua will not be making an appearance in Vegas, which is also pissing me off.

Oh, well....

Wouldn't you just have an orgasm if she did it live?! I envision a lighthouse on wheels rolling about in the back of the stage with dancers throwing their bodies to and fro, while a man dressed as Mufasa the beast roams around throwing roses at Miss Nicks. Ah, it might happen in Vegas.

You know, I had the same reaction, only - It was the first Stevie album besides Timespace, and the best of FM, that I ever got! imagine my shock and dismay. I was like "huh? what? this isn't Edge or Stand Back! HELP!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Luckily there was a Bob D. song, and Kick It, to help me through the transition. Now I like Street Angel. Or, at least, the five or so songs that can only be expected....

I only know one person. My best friend, who thinks Stevie's good but better when she's with FM, says that Edge is "kind of dumb." It's the only popular Stevie song I know of that she never got into at all.
