It may hurt everybody's everything, but how about tossing 'Not Make Believe' in? I can't say it's her best song, but I don't get all the hating the song sometimes gets, I think it's a good track.
And I get 'it hurts my everything.' I would. |

The "it hurts my everything" line is stupid. Yet, I think it fits the message of someone you've known for a very long time being able to push the precise button that will make you feel like a vulnerable child again, no matter what you've accomplished in life. It's a juvenile phrasing to match a description of child like hurt. On the other hand, I think there's a certain power in the words, "not make believe then" because I can almost hear the speaker saying, "That magic I had over you, back then? It was real and I've still got it. Pretend like it didn't happen and wasn't powerful if you want, but it wasn't -- it's not -- illusion. Not make believe." Certainly this song is album worthy and I think it's worlds better than Silver Girl or RTTG. Michele |

^ Yes, definitely! You're right again and said it well. I never knew what it was that I liked about 'Not Make Believe', I just knew that I did like it, quite a lot.
I think now I know why, thanks to you. Totally agree that it's more album worthy than the 2 songs you mentioned. I don't dislike it tons, but 'Running Through The Garden' always made me picture tomatoes squishing between her toes, falling, and confining her evermore to Reeboks. Probably not the kind of garden she meant. Last edited by Nikolaj; 12-02-2010 at 02:18 AM.. |

Does "Twisted" qualify here, since both Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood appear on it?
"Paper Doll", "Sweet Girl" and "Not Make Believe" are very good songs that should have been more prominent on albums. |

To clarify, "Silver Springs" already won Favorite Stevie extra song. The only poll left open is the one for Favorite song from Say you will and that closes in 2 hours. No other songs are up for consideration.
