Pick among:

"Welcome To The Room...Sara"
"The Second Time"
"Silver Girl"


"When I See You Again" is close to being added to the above list

Yeah, When I See You Again and Welcome To The Room are both horrid.

I like Lindsey vocals and guitar work @ the end of See You Again though.

For me, Silver Girl is one song I cant get into much, although I love how it was written by Stevie re: Sheryl.

Affairs of the Heart.
I don't HATE it, but the grammar is distracting (and I don't fuss at "drownDed" in The Nightmare), the lyrics lack her creative voice, the vocals are worse than Street Angel selections, and the instruments on the chorus and bridge don't blend with her voice well.

At least WISYA is simple acoustic, and she's trying something a bit different with her voice (like pulling a box of used Kleenex through it). It's not her best, but it's what might be called a creative vocal. Different isn't always good, but it's new.
AOTH is too cliche to me. Get it off the box set! (7 Wonders & Freedom are much better.) JMO

To me, the worst is when Stevie's creative spark is obscured.

Yep I'll have to say 'Silver Girl', and I love 'Say You WIll' over all. Did Stevie really write it about Sheryl? (Like Sheryl wrote 'It's Only Love' for Stevie?)

Or maybe 'Freedom'...

Maybe. But not with me or Christine or Lindsey. Christine and I will always be close; Lindsey just plain doesn't like me. I never had any musical training of any kind. I just had this innate ability to walk in, sit down at a piano, and write a song in five minutes, and go to bed. It drives him nuts. - Stevie Nicks, 1994

I really don't like running throught the garden. It's to disjointed for me.
No questions asked, is a real dud.
Welcome to the room and When I see you again do nothing for me. her singing is grating on these.
All her stuff from Behind the Mask is lackluster, she needs Lindsey to bring out the best in her, providing that he is in a good mood.

Kick It - eeech! Actually, almost the entire Street Angel album...

The only thing I don't like about WISYA is the all the "what's the matter, baby" babbling...

I'm gonna have to agree with the majority of you on "When I See You Again"...I mean, how many ways can you really say "What's the matter baby?"

When I see you again and Welcome to the Room.........Sara. Neither are absolutely horrible, but they are far from good.

those are two of the three songs of hers that came off Tango in the Night, and the 3rd song, Seven Wonders, she didn't even write. One has to wonder just how messed up she was at the time to make such a poor contribution to that album.

In her defense, she was going through a hell of a battle at that time kicking Coke and then being on that Klonopin crap. Nonetheless, TITN would have been better sans Stevie.

It's a shame the advertising community overlooked this lyric/vocal delivery or they could have used her long before those "Wasssuuuup!" commercials.

Thumbs down WISYA..ugh...

Bleck...I don't like WISYA...the only redeeming quality to it is Lindsey singing. I even like Silver Girl better and THAT is saying A LOT about WISYA because I do NOT like SG!! WTTRS has never bothered me, I kinda like it...fun to sing along with.

Used to be "When I See You Again", but now it's easily "Silver Girl". What a piece of crap.
