DISCUSSION: Stevie's songs from Tango in the Night
Here's the last discussion thread on Tango in the Night.
Songs up for discussion... 1. Seven Wonders 2. Welcome to the Room...Sara 3. When I See You Again I realize these songs get a bad rep, but I like them all pretty well, especially "Seven Wonders".

Seven Wonders - Easily the best of the three, but certainly not of the same quality as Lindsey's and Christine's songs. Welcome to the Room...Sara - "Where the first cut is the deepest one of all. And, the second one. Well it's a worthless thing, so take it all the way back home." There is really no need for commentary. When I see you Again - I like to pretend this never happened. That vocal! Overall, this is such a sad time in Stevie's life and I really find these songs depressing. Such a loss of creativity.

I'm very fond of 'Seven Wonders' though I think of her vocal on it as her loveable homage to Drano, which I can't explain concisely. I've sworn off mega long Ledge writing, it's just so '2000'.
I appreciate her other two songs enough, they 'vibe' me as beachy or ocean/ island songs; somehow, as do 'Everywhere' 'Big Love' and 'You And I'- even 'Caroline' and 'Tango' have an island-y feel to them. I spun the TITN cd today, and the musical setting throughout the cd does seem quite atmospheric, which I never 'got' before. I think I understand the cd more, now  Last edited by Nikolaj; 11-09-2010 at 07:40 PM..

Poor Stevie. Her Tango songs just don't work for me on any level. Seven Wonders has a poppy vibrancy, and a very Fleetwood Mac-ish chorus, but clearly the she (or the band) had to turn to Sandy Stewart for help.
I still can't figure out why the band didn't try Smile At You or Planets at this point. Either one would have sounded very cool on that album.

On the heels of Rock A Little and how I both loved (side 2) and hated (side 1) of that album, I was hoping for more of the "side 2" Stevie Nicks, but what we got was even worse than the "side 1" Nicks.

Ugh. If Tusk was Nicksy at her best, then TITN was probably her at her worst.
1. Seven Wonders- I actually kinda like this song, but I was surprised when I found out Stevie didn't write this. At least everyone looked hot in the music vid  2. Welcome to the Room...Sara- Gah! The vocals make me wanna climb up the walls on this one! Why did she have to pull a Rex Harrison (talk-sing your vocals on a song, like what Rex Harrison did in My Fair Lady) on this one, I dunno 3. When I See You Again- Uh, yeah, I'd take a drill to my ear than this one

1. Seven Wonders - I agree all the way with Cassie, they all look banging in the video. It's my favorite FMac video
Chris & Stevie were really pretty, and Lindsey, well lets not go there...sexyyy. Great song!2. Welcome to the Room... Sara - Win. I actually really enjoy this song even if the lyrics are a tad bit off to me. I enjoy it.... 3. When I See You Again - *Deletes from iPod a day after I bought Tango*  'What's the matter baby?' Your song sucks.Yeah, I think she missed the boat with When I See You Again. Wait for me Cassie, we'll have an ear drilling party together. The only song I hate worse than this song is You and I Part 2.

Seven Wonders - The best of three very weak songs, but her vocal grates on my nerves.
WTTR....S - Just a rambling mess. "Of course it was a prooobleeem." On the rare occasion I listen to this song, that line makes me jump for the skip button. WISYA - Possibly the worst song she's ever written. Even Lindsey at the end can't save it.

HAS EVERYONE GONE INSANE! When i see you again is amazing!! Its so sad and beautiful and lindsey's part at the end is so fitting and fantastic! So what that she's a little bit more nasal than usual in this song!
 Seven Wonders: Meh, I would still love to hear her perform it live! Welcome to the room: hmmm, its ok, bit of a strange one, still like it though

I actually like all of these songs. I've even come to enjoy When I See You Again. However, in comparison to Lindsey and Christine's mind blowing contributions, they completely suck.

was the beach scene in Big Love. Welcome To The Room Sara was ok, but When I See You Again kind of makes me nauseous.

These are easily the weakest Stevie contributions to any album (solo or Mac).
Seven Wonders: This song is bubbly and fun. But it still bothers me it's not a song Stevie wrote. Even though this is her best addition to Tango, it's still a fairly weak track Welcome To The Room, Sara: The subject matter of this song is quite intriguing... basically that Stevie's management team forcibly committed her to rehab. Sonically it's just not a strong song, though. When I See You Again: Possibly the most painful to listen to song Stevie's ever penned. I do respect the underlying sentiment of it greatly, though. It's about total desperation and despair, and to me, Stevie's vocal utterly captures that. Lindsey's vocals on this song are what prevents me from skipping it altogether, though.
