9. If Anyone Falls (No 'in love' on my tracklist. I'm old school - haha!)

11. Blue Denim
12. After The Glitter Fades
13. Sorcerer
14. Crash
15. Fall From Grace (again, the album version, not Soundstage)
16. Beauty and the Beast (it HAD to be Soundstage version this time!)
17. Edge of Seventeen (and I've just noticed the 'seventeen' is track 17 now - d'oh!)

Excellent choices...you've covered every solo album from Bella Donna to Soundstage Sessions. The only thing i would change is switch out Too Far From Texas with I Can't Wait to add another RAL track on there.

I had already decided against putting demos or stuff like that in there because she's just becoming a fan. I thought I'd make her a good solid introductory cd and see how she gets on with that before going into demo territory..haha

Blue Denim is only on there because I had to have a Street Angel track. It was either going to be that or Maybe Love and since Blue Denim was the bigger hit I went for it.

Haha - I knew that it would be Too Far From Texas that people would pick up on!

Maybe it's because I'm a huge country fan that I love it so much and yeah, I totally get why people think it is out of place but hey, that's all part for the fun!

I can't even begin to think about this one! Not that there's anything wrong with your list, but for me, I couldn't do a single disc one, it would have to be multiple...it would have to include Wildheart, Belladonna, Planets, Nightbird, If You Ever Did Believe, One More Big Time RNR Star, Needles and Pins, Violet & Blue, Ooh My Love, Has Anyone Ever ... just to name a few off the top of my head, and I'm not even going near the demos...

Yeah, that's why I had to set myself limits or it would have gone on for about 5 discs, lol. I decided to stay away from demos etc. See how she gets on with this and then I can always do a volume 2 of rarities etc,.

And the audience went mad when she did!

I'd have included "Planets of the Universe" and "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You" (the storyteller's performance from 1998).
