I Sing For The Things

[Tellurium]

This one is harder than I thought it would be, actually. But I think Sister Honey should be the first to go.

Talk to Me is the only one I really skip, and I think it's probably the most annoying song Stevie ever recorded, but I'm not expecting it to head out for a little while...

I agree. It was a radio hit at the time so it will probably have staying power on this face off. But, never a favorite of mine at all.

[chriskisn]

This is probably my least favourite Stevie album. Except Rock A Little which I've always liked (and I don't mind HAEWAFY)

Lets wave goodbye to Imperial Hotel first though.

[Chrislit18]

Sister Honey's the shizz.

I actually like this album a lot, even though I rarely listen to it. I voted for I Can't Wait....for it to be over.

Yeah tacky, but I really don't like this one.
ISFTT will probably go first though. I could have voted for that too. I wish she would have put the uptempo outtake on instead.

[JohnL]

and I think most of the songs are pretty up to par. However, The Nightmare is a nightmare. It needs to go. I cant believe anyone would vote for I Sing for the Things. Great unique song with a great sentiment.

I Sing for the Things.
Lyrically, she lined up all her favorite cliches.
Vocally, she sounds distressingly frail. The whole thing should have been stripped down to bare bones (ala Johnny Cash covering NIN's Hurt) when the vocal sounds that damaged.
I love the RAL era, but I'd love to hear this album re-recorded without the clunky drum programming, dated keyboards, and sorry, some really awful background vocals from the girls. The whole thing needs to sound more organic. I think the arrangement, additional lyrics and "I thought that there was a connection" coda on HAEW (Live at Red Rocks) is vastly superior to what's on the album.

and that's actually what I always loved about this song, how fragile and vulnerable she sounded on it. I agree though, that some of the ladies' vocals could have been better. Sharon sounds shrieky on some of the songs.

But don't you just love Bobbye Hall's tambo on 'Imperial Hotel'?

I second the motions.

[michelej1]

Now, Some Become Strangers, is the only song that one of them didn't write that I actually support in every way.
