Default Secret Love vs. Cheaper Than Free

If you HAD to choose... which is better?

Both songs suck, but Secret Love is slightly better.

I also chose Secret Love. However, I love the sentiment on CTF way better...it's just those darn lyrics that I can't get past.

Interesting that we've now heard the "bookends" of the album, if you will. Do I think Secret Love was a good choice to open the record? Not really, but I still like it. So if the record starts out above average and ends less than average...(you fill in the blanks)

Secret Love!! The song seems like such a classic Stevie song to me, although I love CTF for the harmonies and simplicity.

These polls are getting really tedious It really doesn't matter. Music is a personal, highly subjective thing.

Don't answer them?

I like reading other opinions. Isn't that why we're all here?

Toughie.

I love them both, but for now, it's Secret Love. I love the Beatles/Lennon-esque vibe of Cheaper Than Free, though...it's becoming a quick favorite.

I know I'm in the minority, but Secret Love has never done much for me. I can see that it's more classic Stevie but it's so...beige.
I'm going with CTF. Not a fan of the lyrics, but I think it has more texture--harmonies, stronger instrumentation. Granted, I'm not sure I would have felt the same without the video.

Questions like this aren't bad, you should make your case in the 'Is Stevie Dating Dave' thread. Those kinds of topics are tedious. It's nobody's beezwax who Stevie bangs behind closed doors.

I'm not sure why, but I'm obsessed with Secret Love. Could be the "oooooweeeee" or the fact that it's Eo17 compared to CTF to me, but I can't get enough of it.

"Secret Love."

"Cheaper Than Free" does not belong on this record. It's already on The Blackbird Diaries for Heaven's sake!
