Warm Ways is like having a bottle of honey mainlined into your veins. But it has it's moments. |

Storms and Beautiful Child are great but Crystal is another barf-worthy tune. When I see people putting it in their dream setlists I just cringe. I have no need to ever hear that one live. |

I'm friends with a producer that knows her and her Mom, and says they both have egos the size of Texas, and can't fit in the same room at the same time. Bekka's a sweetheart though, even if she's got a huge ego. |

I LOVE the music. Always have. Always will. It's made EVERY greatest hits CD I've ever made. So has Think About Me. |

Warm Ways and Crystal both took me a minute to like but I love them both now. Warm Ways just has a great sound even if it's not good for active listening and Crystal's harmonies and keyboards make it worth the wait through some occasionally awkward lyrics. As for some of the other deep cut Chris tracks mentioned... I'm still working on Only Over You, Over and Over, Mystified, and Honey Hi. It's gonna happen eventually... But it's so hard lol. |
Warm Ways is my favorite song on the FM album. I wish they had ventured down that road a bit more. So many layers to that song, but it’s not forced like Over and Over (which I love too, but it’s so heavily over produced)

I like every single Christine song she ever made before 1975. Then all at once she falls off a cliff with the first alum with Stevie and Lindsey. I know I’ll be in the minority here, but I honestly feel the 1975 album is as much of a sudden drop off in quality of songs for Christine as it was for Stevie on Tango in the Night.
Say You Love Me is catchy and John mcvie keeps it from Being completely forgettable with his bass lines (as he would do many times in the future especially on the say You will album) But warm ways is boring for all the reasons already stated. World Turning is one of their 5 greatest live staples of all time (maybe as epic as the Rhiannon’s in the 70s in hindsight) but the reissue has shown that World Turning along with Sugar Daddy and Over My Head were initially FAR better. Sugar Daddy being the worst offender. I’m sorry but I have to say Lindsey essentially butchered Christine’s how incredible pre-75 song streak with his production on her songs on that first album. And let me clarify, other then warm ways, I don’t think the rest of Christine’s songs on this album are bad. Just a huge step down from all the bob Welch era albums and only in the past year do I see how much better they could have been. |
Warm Ways is a beautiful song as is Honey Hi. I like a rocker more then anybody else but I also love throwing on a pair of headphones and hearing those amazing harmonies on Mystified, Honey Hi etc...

Having said that, I love WW and Sugar Daddy. The early take of SDaddy is amazing to my ears. Especially, in headphones. |

I don't consider Sugar Daddy cheezy lyrics at all
I find them sentimental in a bullish kind of way She is sticking to her man no matter how another man with material things tries to lure her way. Its so bluesy and fun!!!! Love the organ and the serving whiskey neat line. |
