Default Everybody Finds Out

I was listening to SYW today and once again as I was listening and rocking out to EBFO I again thought how this track would have been a great song on Tango in the Night 16 years earlier. I wouldn’t replace it I would just add it after Mystified.

Yes, I would love to hear this on TITN. It would fit into that album nicely.

SYW's problem is it's just a collection of songs forced into an album.
Yes, there is some stellar material here; but, it just doesn't flow well.

Say You Will should've been called Lindsey + Stevie. Would've then sounded like a collection of songs rather than an album.

When was EbFO written?

She wrote 4 new songs in 2002 for SYW, right? The Phoenix Four:
1. Say You Will
2. Silver Girl
3. Destiny Rules
4. ?

Illume!

Throw Down was semi-new written a couple of years before.

OMG
This song does not belong on Tango. It would stand out like a sore thumb. Its great on SYW. Tango is full of synthetic, programmed, synth pop. Everybody Finds Out has none of that and everyone is playing the hell out of their instruments.
I think some of you Tango worshippers unconsciously acknowledge Tango's weaknesses and always trying to put other songs on it.
While Tango was a huge success, it way underperformed in sales in the states by the amount of hit singles it had. IMHO, that sums it up. Its safe, predictable pop music but there was no rush to go buy it. Everybody Finds Out is unpredictable and unprogrammed and its perfect where it is

IMHO it was refreshing to hear Lindsey's muted criticism of Tango recently about how safe and predictable it was. It was done on purpose to get Mick out of bankruptcy and be a pop success while creativity took a back seat. SYW is Lindsey at his best, always fighting for creativity and demonstrating it. To mix up these albums is comparing apples to watermelons IMHO.

I disagree with just about everything you have stated here. Still love you though.

I love EFO on SYW. My point is it could have been on Tango. Listen to it between Big Love and Family Man.

Thank you!

Thrown Down and Not Make Believe she recorded for TISL but didn't use or pulled I understand.

Running Through the Garden was written in 85. Perhaps EbFO was written then too
