The "B-Side & Soundtrack" [Part One] Survivor Challenge - Round One

[mitzo]

One More Big Time Rock and Roll Star is one of the worst things I have ever heard from any artist ever anywhere.

[Neal]

"Garbo" and "Sleeping Angel"

[WildHearted]

Sleeping Angel is one of my favorite Stevie songs ever.

I voted for One More Big Time Rock & Roll Star and Sometimes It's a Bitch (even though I have days where I really like SIAB).

BTW, where are "If You Ever Did Believe", "Crystal", Touched By An Angel" & "Free Fallin"? They all fall under Stevie's official "Soundtrack" releases.

They will be in the "Part Two" Survivor Challenge...Remember the poll feature only allows you ten choices

This is one of the BEST songs she's ever recorded. It's filled with lots of passion and is very revealing.

I would tend to agree these days, but there are still parts of the song that are appealing (and parts that are equally unappealing).

I will never understand the hate for "Thousand Days" as I think it's better than anything on Street Angel.

I wouldn't say that it's better than *anything* on Street Angel, but I have always liked it. Definitely one of my favorite b-sides.

I like Thousand Days, but disagree with your assessment that it's better than *anything* on Street Angel. I would say the version that was recorded for Street Angel lacks all of the passion and mood that made the Rock A Little era recordings so appealing.

Agreed. It could easily fit quite well on Rock A Little.

I don't understand how one of the "Dreams" knock-offs ("How Still My Love") won the Bella Donna survivor, over "Edge of Seventeen", "Bella Donna", "Stop Dragging My Heart Around", or "Leather and Lace". I kind of get why "No Spoken Word" won for Rock A Little....in an album that has very slick production, "No Spoken Word" seems like one of the more authenticate tracks. Very interesting choices all around! We'll have to see who wins for In Your Dreams.

For this one, I generally like most of these songs. I selected "Garbo" and "Love's A Hard Game to Play".

I think everyone is shocked that someone voted for any one of the songs listed up there.

I'm shocked No Spoken Word won the RAL round. I'm also shocked that Street Angel didn't win the Street Angel round.

I'm shocked Love's A Hard Game To Play is getting more votes than Inspiration.

Now THAT is shocking my friend!!

I voted for Love's A Hard Game to Play & Inspiration. There OK songs . I actually like the rest of the lot mostly. I love Battle Of the Dragon thats one of my favorite songs and one of Stevie's best --I love her voice and the lyric's. I was thinking the other day what MAKES a song a 'perfect' song really. To me when the lyrics & the music are in harmony with each other (at least to your ears that is) than to you thats a perfect song. Its like its magic sort of really. I love Garbo and One More Big Time R & R Star (personally I think it should've been on RAL)/I love Violet & Blue and Sleeping Angel /I do like Sometime's Its A B**tch at times even though Stevie didn't write it. I chose Thousand Days cause I don't like 'this' version of it I like the 'faster' version from RAL much much better. Inspiration is an OK song but I do wish the b'sides to SA would've been her own songs. Some thoughts. ps I Love Blue Lamp also another song that should've been on BD too

Which movie is Sleeping Angel in again? It's a beautiful song,especially the live version from Storytellers.
