Don't think I realized how much I really do like this album as a whole until just now, LOL! I didn't know which one to pick, seeing as how Imperial Hotel got voted off! lol! But, I went with The Nightmare.

Any song that was on side one of the LP should go. However, side two of the LP was some of the best music to come from Ms Nicks...before or since.

Unhappy hey!

"Some become strangers" has that cool part where she goes "I don't really need this in my life...why don't we forget about it?"

And I LOVE "Sing for the Things"..what is wrong with you people? Her pleasantly raspy voice...the sweeet lyrics...

Lord...

Speaking of Some Become Strangers, since it's about to be booted off while Rock a Little and The Nightmare are STILL there (grr...), I was watching some random movie because nothing else was on, called Campus Man. I don't even know what the movie was about, for some reason I just turned it on. After about five minutes of confusion (it was near the end of the movie I think, or middle-end), they show this person walking around by a pool, and all of the sudden I heard this intro to a song that I knew was familiar. Then I heard, "In the beginning I believed in love and things" and was like, OMG, I know this song, but I couldn't point it out because, get this, it WASN'T Stevie singing it. By the time it got to the chorus, I realized what it was. But does anyone know who else would have done this song? The movie was definitely all 80's (you can just TELL when a movie was made in the 80's).

It was The Williams Brothers... they wrote "Some Become Strangers," and also recorded Stevie's song, "You Like Me" (which is a great tune).

sooo sad that Some Become Strangers is about to be booted off, even tho this song is not written by Stevie, it holds strong personal meaning to me

the song is also innovative...back then Stevie and the girls were the only ones I had ever heard which used the layering of the multiple vocals now common to many pop and hip-hop songs

c'mon the record is called Rock A Little, all the catchy rockin' tunes are being booted...
