Sorcerer might be better than IYD, but the BN demo of Sorcerer is superior to TISL version, in my opinion. That said, IYD is a power-pop masterpiece. The production and the harmonies are superior. Thus, it won for me. As for IS vs. FFG. FFG might be my preferred song, BUT the production on TISL is rather flabby AND I now feel FFG has been eclipsed by GAG as Stevie's definitive rocker track. Thus, IS's sweeping perfection and sophistication defeats the passionate FFG.

Trouble In Shangri-La vs. Secret Love
Candlebright vs. For What It’s WorthSorcerer vs. In Your Dreams
Planets of the Universe vs. Wide Sargasso Sea
Every Day vs. New Orleans
Too Far From Texas vs. Moonlight
That Made Me Stronger vs. Annabel Lee
It’s Only Love vs. Soldier’s Angel...I love those two songs so much.
Love Changes vs. Everybody Loves You
I Miss You vs. Ghosts Are Gone
Bombay Sapphires vs. You May Be The One
Fall From Grace vs. Italian Summer
Love Is vs. Cheaper Than Free

IYD : 7
TISL : 4
1 tie.

Though there might be some stronger tracks on TISL, i think it's pretty easy to take some of the best demos from BN or Rumours, and then turn them into solid songs (Planets, Candlebright, Sorcerer). Just not so creative.
Another thing, i can't even imagine listening to Moonlight without playing Annabel Lee right after it. This album flows, so comparing songs is not so fair, and not very representative of IYD's superiority as an album (ok, that's just my opinion. But i trully dislike TISL. Even the song titles are terrible.)

Take my opinion with a grain of salt. I have only heard IYD pretty much once through the rolling stone stream, and not all in one sitting either, on my laptop which doesn;t have very loud or good sound. And for all the IYD songs I'm going on memory here, of hearing it once, except for a few songs I listened to a few times.

Trouble In Shangri-La vs. Secret Love - TISL (but close to a tie)

Candlebright vs. For What It’s Worth - FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH

Sorcerer vs. In Your Dreams - IN YOUR DREAMS (unless we are talking the demo of sorcerer, but i know we aren't)

Planets of the Universe vs. Wide Sargasso Sea - this is a hard one, TIED, maybe?

Every Day vs. New Orleans - EVERYDAY (that could change after I hear new orleans more)

Too Far From Texas vs. Moonlight - MOONLIGHT (I think will be a new stevie "forever favorite" of mine)

That Made Me Stronger vs. Annabel Lee - ANNABEL LEE

It’s Only Love vs. Soldier’s Angel - ANYTHING'S better than It's Only Love

Love Changes vs. Everybody Loves You - TIED, LOVE, LOVE,LOVE THEM BOTH

I Miss You vs. Ghosts Are Gone - TIED (I need to wait till I get my cd and hear it more)

Bombay Sapphires vs. You May Be The One - BOMBAY SAPPHIRES (a favorite song of mine, but i can't really even remember what You May be the One sounds like, and can't recall any lyrics at the moment or the melody, so maybe after i hear it more, it will be a favorite, i havbe no idea?????)

Fall From Grace vs. Italian Summer - TIED (I LOVE FFG AND I LOVE ITALIAN SUMMER, THEY ARE BOTH AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!)

Love Is vs. Cheaper Than Free - TIED, TOTALLY LOVE BOTH!

Gosh, I'm kinda shocked by these results; however, TIS is almost flawless in my opinion.

TISL: 5
IYD: 8


I’d like to point out, though, that it makes a big difference if I rank the songs by favorites rather than just following the order of each album:

Sorcerer vs. Moonlight
Trouble in Shangri-la vs. You May Be the One
It’s Only Love vs. New Orleans
Too Far from Texas vs. Italian Summer
I Miss You vs. In Your Dreams
Bombay Sapphires vs. Soldier’s Angel
Candlebright vs. Secret Love
Fall from Grace vs. Wide Sargasso Sea
Planets of the Universe vs. For What it’s Worth
That Made Me Stronger vs. Everybody Loves You
Every Day vs. Cheaper Than Free
Love Changes vs. Ghosts are Gone
Love Is vs. Annabel Lee

TISL: 2
IYD: 11


Here it is much more evident that I strongly prefer IYD to TISL.
