Come on Straight Back admirers don't let this great song die.

There have been whole threads on this one song alone so I know there are many fans of it out there.

Book of Love is one of my favourite songs on the album but I always thought a lot of people didn't like it so I'm not surprised to see it getting a lot of votes.

The fact that That's Alright and Straight back are beating out Book of Love is bizarre.

Well they are both bigger more complete and fuller songs. Book of Love , as with all of L's brilliant songs has a killer hook that grabs you from the first note. I love the chorus and ah ah ah ahhhhs but It is a bit of a music box song. By that I mean it sounds unfinished and a bit short.

I especially believe that TA is a very very good solid song from Stevie. It really sets the scene and you are right there at the railway station with her. On the downside I admit it does not fit in that well with the rest of the album. It is very old fashioned and the rest of the songs sound fresh and new esp L's.

I'd pick off almost all of the songs on this album before touching Straigh Back and Book of Love... They rock!

Madness.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again-

Recall Lindsey's famous quote about having the urge not to want to help Stevie with a song? "Straight Back" is the most damning example of this. 80% of his attention went to "Gypsy", 20% to "That's Alright", and "Straight Back" got nothing.

Ugh..you guys

My favourite songs are by Christine "Only over you" "Wish you were here", and "Hold me" and by Stevie "Gypsy" and "Straight back"

At this stage "Gypsy" for the win.

Right now im voting off book of love.

Damnit Book of Love is nowhere near as far is it should get in this poll. IMHO it's better than Straight Back, That's Alright, Love in Store.

If I had to vote off a Lindsey song it would have to be Can't go Back.
