POLL: Best Dave Stewart Collaboration from In Your Dreams

[chiliD]

She should take a page from Pink Floyd (well, when Roger Waters was still in the band, that is)...come out & play your ENTIRE latest album, take a break, then "set 2", play a few "hits" & "deep album tracks".

It's pretty much what Fleetwood Mac did with Rumours by the middle of the summer of '77. I don't care WHAT Fleetwood & Nicks say about "playing new songs", I was in the friggin' audience, I saw & heard the reactions from those new songs live...there wasn't the "boredom" that THEY say happened, the audience was ROCKIN' the new tunes...why the hell do you think Rumours sold so well? Yep, almost the entire album's songs translated well to the stage. Why have subsequent album's bombed? They don't play enough of the songs in concert to incite the audience to run to buy the album.

Stevie girl...ooooh, weeee, LISTEN TO ME...play the whole damned album, take a break, then come back a play a few "hits" (rotating them from show to show)...sell 85% of your tickets for $25, play 10 nights in one town before moving on to the next. (is this starting to sound like Prince's latest concert series? I thought so.) You'll be the talk of the town, the "latest buzz", the "comeback kid".

Mine too. A slow-burning show stopper.

I think the song probably has some of the best vocals on the album too. I love how bratty she sounds when she sings: "You may be the righteous one..."

And I actually link the word "righteous" here with "righteous" on Soldier's Angel, as I think calumny, blame and irony color both utterances.

...and the use of the word "righteous" on "New Orleans"... "where the good and righteous walk, and the wicked as well"... this describes a SPIRITUAL place, not just literal New Orleans.

Bravo! That's the best way to listen to this record. From start to finish. IT IS A GREAT ALBUM!

I agree. I can't start it without finishing it.

Poll is closed. You May Be the One is the winner.

It's not letting me vote for some reason. I chose Everybody Loves You. The song is musically deep and goes different places.
