Default "No Questions Asked" or "Paper Doll"

At the Rumours era section, I learned that these two songs were both made and considered for use on 1988's Greatest Hits. Was the right decision made? Which one would you have chosen to use?

Well, neither - but the alt. version of NQA that starts with her singing "No questions asked" is FAR superior to the sonic nightmare on the released one - so, I pick the alt. version of NQA

"Paper Doll" blows chunks. "No Questions Asked" is a top 20 for me. I love that song- it rocks.

I don't like either! Especially when they are placed next to songs like Rhiannon and Gypsy. If it comes down to a choice between two crappy songs for a greatest hits album, they should have gone with neither.

I like them both. Did anyone else notice that the music in NQA starts off kind of wrong? The Keyboard/bell ring is off on the very first note.

I went with NQA, although I love them both. It fits the Greatest Hits album more...it has that feel of a hit, while Paper Doll is a great opener for the boxset.

I think Paper Doll is poignant and it has a cool beat to beat. I think it is almost alternative sounding with itsw Cajun/Zydeco esq beat.

Well, one night I was playing Stevie for some drag queens in my car and this song came on. They all said it was the perfect drag number cuz of the beat and Cajun sound.

For the record and for the casual observer - I was NOT one the drag queens in Curtis' car But, I am from Lafayette, Louisiana, the home of Cajun music
