Sure isn't like when I was in my teens and early 20s though... back then, if I missed just one meal, I lost 5 lbs!

Midnight snacking is my worst habit. I just love to munch on snacks at the witching hour. But if I do it too much...I start to get a gut. And when I snack...forget anything healthy. It's all about chips, cookies or crackers.

I enjoy her songs that borrow lines from short stories and novels

That is the worst. I am so good about that now. I keep NO food in the house

I also eat dinner when I can, which is usually during the week, at 5:30 and then go to the gym at like 6:30. It is working, but not fast enough damnit

The rest can go rot.

I love you

B side:

Love Is Like a River
Thousand Days

God's Garden [the original version coz it rocks]

I wouldn't go as far as saying that I loath "Thousand Days" but it's definitely a full-fledged member of my Stevie's Top 5 Weakest Songs.

You're always so negative.

David, you know that's not true. I'm one of Stevie's biggest fans. There are countless posts I've made over the years that would back that up. I just don't happen to like one album of hers. Come on man, give me a break!

I only got the album during the week! Shame on me, I know, but it completes the collection.

So far I've only listened to a couple of tracks, but Blue Denim and Street Angel just blew me away. Blue Denim really, really reminds me of Trouble in Shangri La, just the structure of it, the sound, the general feel ... anyone think so?

And Listen to the Rain is brililant too.

So far, nothing else really stands out.

Um, I don't dislike Street Angel at all, it's not as bad an album as some say. But to say it's better than TISL? Wow. I can't say I agree with you there. No worries, though, I'm sure Curtis will.

I kind of like it better than TISL, too. There's about 2-3 songs I don't like on SA, and 5 or so I don't like on TISL. But I have had SA so much longer.

TISL is really not holding up for me as time passes. "Fall From Grace", "I Miss You", "Trouble In Shangri-La", and "Planets of the Universe" are awesome. Everything else is a grade C and lower (most of it in the F territory).
