have you re-sequenced In Your Dreams?

Ghosty · #1 04-20-2012, 12:19 PM

I can finally seem to burn cd's again, so want to make a copy or two of my cd for in the car, etc. and I wanted to switch the songs around a bit. I was wondering if anyone else had re-done the song order for themselves, and if so, what order did you do the songs in? I know this is so late after this cd came out, lol, but I just was having trouble with my computer burning for the longest time.

I am leaving out Soldiers Angel. I like it, but it's not a favorite, and I don't like the dark, starkness and
"alarming" sound of it in the middle of this cd. I also debating on using the demo for My Heart (although the more I listen to the IYD version, I do like it).

So far what I am thinking of is:

In Your Dreams
For What it's Worth
Wide Sargasso Sea
Everybody Loves You
My Heart
You May Be the One
Moonlight
Annabel Lee
Secret Love
New Orleans
Ghosts are Gone
Cheaper than Free
Italian Summer

But I am curious what other people might have done for a nice flow to the cd, and if you left any songs out or added any?

Well, I haven't really re-sequenced In Your Dreams, but I have to skip a few songs when I play it on my iPod. I usually have to skip New Orleans, Annabel Lee, Everybody Loves You, & Italian Summer. Everything else I can play except maybe sometimes Secret Love since everytime I saw Stevie on TV, she was doing this song & I sort of got sick of it.

I did it once with a list that someone posted on here. It was the original sequence on the promo CD that went out. I'll try to find the list for you because I like the way the songs flowed much much better.

I re-did it to a 9 song more concise album.

1. Moonlight
2. For What It's Worth
3. In Your Dreams
4. Wide Sargasso Sea
5. New Orleans
6. Soldier's Angel
7. Ghosts Are Gone
8. You May Be the One
9. Italian Summer

As far as reconfiguring the original album...no. Cause there are songs I just don't like

I know i cut out some favs...but.....I don't care

I haven't play with the sequencing of IYD yet.

Etisl · #6 04-20-2012, 07:22 PM

Haha...I thought I was the only one that did that. Listened to the her CD's and think.........you know this song would flow much better in this order...?

Here is my version of the sequencing:

01-Annabel Lee
02-My Heart
03-Secret Love
04-Everybody Loves You
05-Moonlight
06-New Orleans
07-Wide Sargasso Sea
08-In Your Dreams
09-Ghosts Are Gone
10-Cheaper Than Free
11-You May Be The One
12-Italian Summer
13-Soldiers Angel
14-For What It's Worth

But personally, I think Soldiers Angel should have been left off...and maybe used in some other fashion.

Artemis · #7 04-21-2012, 11:12 AM

Nah, it's a pretty good sequence. The only thing I'd change would be to swap YMBTO and Ghosts Are Gone and drop Cheaper Than Free, so then it ends like every other Stevie album, a big rock song and then the ballad. YMBTO-Italian Summer-Cheaper Than Free drags a little bit imo.

"Secret Love" was banished from my copy of "IYD" before the album was ever released...
As I have a digital recorder program I use for transferring my LP's I made a bootleg from the Rolling Stone IYD link where you could listen before IYD was officially released...And yes I bought multiple copies when it was released...
"For What It's Worth" with the first 18 seconds edited out is now the 1st track...
"My Heart" which currently now sits between "New Orleans" and "Moonlight" takes the place of "Secret Love"
Other than banishing "Secret Love" (Sorry I just don't like it) editing FWIW and adding "My Heart" it remains as Mama intended...
1) For What it's Worth (Edited)
2) In Your Dreams
3) Wide Sargasso Sea
4) New Orleans
5) My Heart
6) Moonlight
7) Annabel Lee
8) Soldiers Angel
9) Everybody Loves You
10) Ghosts Are Gone
11) You May Be The One
12) Italian Summer
13) Cheaper Than Free

If John ever leaves the band Mick will change the name of the band from Fleetwood Mac to Fleetwood Mick...

Cute, cute and especially cute.

When I first saw your sequencing suggesting I thought "no way". But the more i think about it the more I like the way you have sequenced them (except cheaper than free should have been left off completely)

markolas · #11 04-22-2012, 08:24 AM

I think the track order on IYD is fine the way it is. The Wild Heart and Street Angel are the only albums I disliked enough as-is to mess with the track order.

Jondalar · #14 04-23-2012, 04:00 PM

I think the opening track should be In Your Dreams.

Ghosty · #15 04-25-2012, 01:20 PM

I like everyone's different versions. I tried picturing it as I read the different order of songs everyone has.

I thought of putting IYD first because I used to like how with BD and WH, they each opened with the songs of the same name. I used to like that and it seemed to work well with those albums.

I would like to make my own version of OSOTM and SA someday. Adding some demos and deleting a few songs off them. I am just not sure yet what demos I have in the best sound quality that would work. Like for example, I think SA would be great if it ended with She Still Loves Him, but not sure my demo is good enough quality. I am not even sure if I still have it on my computer or on old cassette tape.

It is fun to sort of remake a cd and use her demos too.

Has anyone every created your own personal cd using ALL demos? If so, did you just pick your favorites, or did you try and use demos that were written within a similar time period?
