Lindsey's Guitar Monsters: Tango in the Night Vs. I'm So Affriad

[TheWILDheart]

Just Wondering which of Lindsey's guitar anthem's do people prefer and can you think of any other's worthy of being added to this poll?

[foxyluva]

"Tango in the Night" for me. I have heard ISA too many times

The guitar solo at the end of "Doing What I Can" is pretty fierce, but thats a solo song, and Lindsey's guitar at the end of "Isn't it Midnight" is awesome as well, but thats a Christine song...

[mylittledemon]

Tango in the Night is a shorter solo and really is just an extension of what he does in I'm So Afraid. You can't really compare them all THAT much...maybe if he'd done Tango live..?

[wondergirl9847]

ISA is the greatest song EVAH.

Tango is greatness though. I also love the Doing What I Can and Isn't It Midnight solos.

i was thinking "come" might fit in here
i acutally noticed some spots that sound a lot like ISA -
but if you can't rip yourself off then who can you???

and also the solo at the end of eyes of the world is kickin
but is it an anthem?? -

and as to the original question - im going ISA by quite a few lengths but then im comparing the live solos (ISA) to the studio (tango) so once again -

Since we're going with the theme of "vaguely identical solos", you HAVE to include "Murrow Turning Over In His Grave", too.

I don't really hear too much of the same thing in the studio version of Murrow. The studio version has all those effects and things and overdubs (?) and sounds fast (even though a lot of it is repeated notes played fast). Live is a different story of course...

What about "Come"? Not really the same sort of mood as the others, but it certainly follows the same format as Tango with quiet verses, loud chorus and then a massive guitar solo at the end. And "This Is The Time" as well, since it's got almost exactly the same song structure as Tango, right down to the quiet "pre-solo interlude".

EDIT: Forgot to answer the original question. I go with ISA, though I love both. ISA is just an awesome solo, no matter what version I've heard. The studio one is killer and the lives ones are even better IMO. Always full of passion and angst.

Since we are talking about anthems, I personally think that "Go Your Own Way" is known as his guitar anthem, then maybe "I'm So Afraid" or "Big Love," instead of "Tango in the Night." So since the two choices were "Tango in the Night" and "I'm So Afraid," I'm going with "I'm So Afraid."

I voted Tango because I'm so Afraid for me has become one of three songs in the live set where you can go for a beer/wee (or both)

IMO it's past its sell by date

Wasn't the studio version of I'm So Afraid originally titled I'm Feeling A Bit Pensive Right Now?

I dunno. Can you imagine? "Agony's torn at my heart too long....feeling a bit pensive right now....slip and I fall and I die..."

HAHAHA

[Villavic]

I voted ISA because it's great and theres is no TITN live. We need a live version for a fair compare. And yes, I'm tired of ISA too, but it's great anyway. I always wished TITN live in the last tours, Lindsey HELLOOO!!!!

[dontlookdown]

I'm So Afraid.

Love the Tango In The Night solo but the album from which it comes suffers from dated production and the weakest Stevie Nicks songs ever.
