I like it. Is this a Christine written song or a co-write?

The Chain 04-27-2017 10:11 AM

I like this a lot:nod:

SorcererJP 04-27-2017 10:12 AM

Not too enthusiastic overhere. Sounds too plastic, polished and sweet to my ears.

TrueFaith77 04-27-2017 10:15 AM

I'm at work. And it won't open on my phone. Freaking out! So excited. :blob1::woohoo::eek:

louielouie2000 04-27-2017 10:18 AM

I'm really shocked at how much of a Tango vibe these songs are exhibiting. Totally not the direction I thought this album would take. This song is a bit overproduced and bubblegum for my tastes, but it's great to hear such an uplifting song from Chris again after all those dark tunes on In The Meantime.

It's a co-write. Check Wikipedia entry at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindsey_Buckingham/Christine_McVie

Much better choice for a single than In My World. More Mac-like, too; especially the lovely harmonies. I like it a lot. Still, there are a few slow moments (mostly in the transitions from the chorus back to the verse) that I'm surprised Lindsey didn't fill in a little more lushly with production. Almost like he was leaving some holes for a third voice to fill in...

kenzo 04-27-2017 10:23 AM

Goosebumps.

24karatstevie 04-27-2017 10:26 AM

I like it. It definitely gives me some Tango vibes and even though Tango isn't my favorite, I appreciate them going for a more classic sound. This song is interesting, and I think this is shaping up to be a quirky little album. But most importantly, it's so good to hear Chris!!!

AliceLover 04-27-2017 10:30 AM

Yuck times two. Disappointed.

bombaysaffires 04-27-2017 10:34 AM

Very Lindsey sounding. This sounds like it must have been his music and maybe her lyrics. hard to say. It has that sort of retro 50s feel a lot of his music like on Mirage had. :shrug:

He's going with that spare production sound... not full, but lots of tinkly, clinky, plonky individual instrument sounds, not as "orchestral" as past stuff.

This almost sounds like a commercial jingle, or the theme song to a goofy tv show.

I'm not blown away.

I am somewhat disappointed with the lyrics... her lyrics on In the Meantime were so rich, and descriptive and emotive and.....this is very, very spare. And rather trite. :shrug:

ok trying to figure out the line "you're the honey in my tea/ your ????? tastes sweetest to me". Can anyone else decipher the word she says??

AncientQueen 04-27-2017 10:36 AM

I like it. It's cute, a tad too sugary, but a nice song.

ITA, really pop sounding. Is that Christine or Lindsey singing lead? I can not tell which :shrug:

Lee :confused:

MoonSister75 04-27-2017 10:38 AM

I love it! Totally unexpected sound and I much prefer it to IMW. It's so sweet and uplifting. Well done Lindsey and Christine!! Some magic here :blob1: Love the guitar at the end, and the harmonies ...

(some of the lyrics are bordering on being slightly cheesy but I'm ok with that:nod:)

:lol::lol::lol: You just completely ruined the song for me!

perfection bliss sublime joy beautiful

jkmaletic 04-27-2017 10:55 AM

In My World was "ok" to me. This one is just awful. Sounds like a song from Sesame Street or the Teletubbies.

Jamie

sue 04-27-2017 10:56 AM

Well, I hope this grows on me...it's certainly not grabbing me.
The tunes isn't too bad, that might improve with listening..
But the lyrics, not great, like taken from '"The song Writers Book of Lyrics"

Yes! It put a huge smile on my face, my daughter started bopping along to it, and I no longer feel tired after waking at 4am. Magic :D

These artists are almost 70, or just over... I'm so impressed

tango87 04-27-2017 11:00 AM

Yes, I like it... Hasn't grabbed me as much straight away as In My World did - a bit bouncy... Love the harmonies... Reminscent of things like Holiday Road, in a way... Hmmm... I'll keep listening.

But it's wonderful to hear those two voices together again.

Richard B 04-27-2017 11:04 AM

A sweet, summer pop song that Christine knows how to craft. I like the "magnet and steel" lyric. ;)

MikeVielhaber 04-27-2017 11:15 AM

Funny how people refer to the lyrics for reason they don't like the song. I've heard it twice and dont know a single word of it outside of "That's how I feel about you". At least none that stick in my mind. They don't affect my enjoyment one way or the other.

Jondalar 04-27-2017 11:18 AM

I love the harmonies. That is totally Fleetwood Mac.

tango87 04-27-2017 11:18 AM

Growing on me.

Love how the opening rhythm trips you up, like GYOW - takes a moment to find the beat. Nice old Lindsey trick.

TrueFaith77 04-27-2017 11:28 AM

I was only able to listen to the song twice during my lunch break. But I keep singing it in my head and bopping/shimmying to it.

My best friend who really prefers Christine over Lindsey and Stevie, texted me this:
omg
beautiful
it's very christine
and she sounds great!!

button-lip 04-27-2017 11:33 AM

Very Lindsey. Very Tango. Very FM. I love it! :blob1::blob1:

Jondalar 04-27-2017 11:34 AM

Very 1950's like Oh Diane.

hmmm... some small similarities, But Oh Diane is one of my least favourite songs, and I love this.

StevieandChris 04-27-2017 11:57 AM

Love it! Much better choice for a single!

Starting smiling the minute I heard Christine.

Yay!:):):)

SisterNightroad 04-27-2017 11:58 AM

So cute! Though I agree in part with some critics about the production and lyrics, it's much better suited as a single.

Yes what a moment!!!

She's back!!!!

ViscountViktor 04-27-2017 12:10 PM

Not a fan of the marimba and the off beat rhythms, comes across as a bit amateur/basic to me. And the weird guitar into the chorus?

Cringed at the Christine lyrics - sorry, but they have absolutely no substance. They're almost Mystified quality (that's not good). And just repeated again for the second verse. "I am a magnet...you are steel." Ouch.

I do like the harmonies in the chorus, very think Think About Me with Lindsey popping up with a line.

It did get my foot tapping as well, and yes it's great to have Christine back singing, and nice for it to be both of them.

Prefer In My World.

The lyrics are ok. They remind me of Stevie's Cheaper than Free, which I liked better than most people. The harmonies are EXCELLENT!

lennonfan 04-27-2017 12:14 PM

I really love this new song, very Tangoish Mac yet more simple....I'm enjoying this much more than IMW and I think this could use some serious airplay.

This.


Awful :sorry:

NotonRodeo 04-27-2017 12:27 PM

Now this is more like it. Best Christine song since Everywhere. (Actually it's better than Everywhere.) And for all those who are complaining about its lyrics, how are these any worse than those of Everywhere, Got a Hold on Me, or Over My Head? What were you expecting, a commentary on global warming? It's a typical bouncy Christine love song made memorable by Lindsey's offbeat production ideas. If this sounds like Tango II, well and good!

*bounces* :blob1::blob1::blob1:

Murrow 04-27-2017 12:36 PM

Yeah the playful sort of lyrics "magnet/steel" "honey in my tea" etc don't really become Christine somehow.

secondhandchain 04-27-2017 12:51 PM

Very Everywhere ish to me. The back and forth vocals. I like it a lot. It's unexpected and has that FM creative production. THESE PEOPLE ARE 70. Let's be happy. :blob1:

You nailed it. Not as sugary as Everywhere if you ask me.
