All these songs listed are some of my favorite Stevie songs of all times but in terms of rockiest FFG gets my vote definitely!
'Long Way To Go' probably would have been my second pick. |

Fall from Grace and Everybody Finds Out are really close contenders, but EO17 is just Stevie's ultimate rock ballad

ENCHANTED
For one thing, by these song titles, I seriously wonder how the definition of a "rocker" is defined. ![]() Yes: Enchanted Freedom Fall From Grace I Can't Wait Stand Back Edge of Seventeen Rhiannon (live between '75-79) Everybody Finds Out (only marginal) No Spoken Word (only marginal) No: Nothing Ever Changes Long Way To Go Listen To The Rain

Well I picked 'Long Way To Go' cause I've always loved this song....esp when I'm angry....its a great angry song ......"Go tell the world....I thought we already did that....."....love it esp from the masters when Stevie sings 'black bird' at the end....this really should've been sung live during the Mirror tour....I think it would've rocked than....anyway, of the other choices I do also love Fall From Grace. I did think that was one of the best songs live during TISL period. Edge well is an ok song for me now for me its just soooo overplayed now I almost can't stand it anymore. ICW hasn't ever been a favorite either. Its an ok song but its just too repetative of a song for me and I've got boots of it live and it doesn't come over too well. I'd have love to have heard 'The Nightmare' extended vocal version live......I think that would've been cool though. Anyway, just some thoughts.......

By far her BEST rock song is "Violet And Blue." Everything about it is pure rock...Why this was never released as a single is beyond me....best commercial..radio play..."Edge Of Seventeen." Best non commercial off an album..."Long Way To Go."...i did like "I Can't Wait" wen it first came out...great video (at the time) she looked great...and it showed her dancing and stuff..but i can barely listen to it today..it is sooo cheesey.. i hate it today...even the video is rediculous..all done....thanks folks

How the hell isn't Nothing Ever Changes a rocker. It's almost the definition for me. Listen to the Rain i could agree with, but Nothing Ever Changes hits me harder then almost any song Stevie or ohterwise. Does the sax disqualify it for you?

I voted for Everybody Finds Out, but now that I think about it there's only one rocker of hers that sticks out for me. One that is constantly played to death on my iPod. Stand Back to me will always be my favourite Stevie song, be it by her lonesome or performed with more gusto as a live Fleetwood Track. Even though, as with alot of the songs that become known as greats, the lyrics are simple and somewhat repetitive, it always gets me to my feet performing the diseased chicken dance that only those with two left feet could perfect.

^^ Stand Back is one of my favourite pick-me-up songs. It absolutely rocked the house in Dublin last October

Have you seen them live more than once? I wish I could. I only saw FM in November of last year and they were phenomenal. Stevie didn't stand out as much as I expected in all honesty. But, as I knew would be the case, Lindsey well and truly stole the show. Converted my Mother from a casual "I'll bop my head if I hear one of their more well known songs" listener to a fan of Lindsey so that was definitely a job well done :P Even if they didn't perform my favourite song (Silver Springs, as though it needed to be pointed out hehe).

I think Whole Lotta Trouble should get an honorable mention too!
