Not even mixed in with other tracks. Just these 4. All week long! And I still love it. I think Sad Angel is brilliantly catchy, Mick and John are so tight on this and Johns bass runs give me goose bumps! I love Lindsey's It Takes Time, its simple, raw, fragile, reflective... and Miss Fantasy I think is lovely... Without You I like because of the two part harmonies on it... plus the guitar playing... I was never a huge fan of the original bad sounding demo that everyone seems to love... but I like this! I say they are on to something and should explore more. I understand the reason Stevie didn't contribute more or was more involved so going in I didn't expect a lot of input from here... Pleased with what they've offered so far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-38305789489113316952013-05-05T15:26:57.510-05:002013-05-05T15:26:57.510-05:00It's been almost a week now since I picked up ...It's been almost a week now since I picked up EP and I'm more and more frustrated by it every time I listen. I can't really find anything positive to say about it aside from the chorus of Sad Angel is good. Without You should have stayed in the trash or the vault or on YouTube, and the other 2 songs are unlistenable. I can't even believe LB released It Takes Time. It's just... tragic. Perhaps if Stevie had bothered to put in a little effort and brought a new tune to the table, just one, it might have been more impressive. <br /><br />If this is how they're doing it now, I really hope they don't bother with anything more.

A simple acoustic like arrangement, like when they sing Landslide live would have been better. Softer more intimate vocals. Lyrics are great but the phrasing seems off too.<br />I can't stop playing Sad Angel....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-34641136053684258412013-05-05T01:30:33.069-05:002013-05-05T01:30:33.069-05:00I think Without You actually was planned for their...I think Without You actually was planned for their follow-up BN record.
