Think About Me - Which Version
Which one do you prefer? Or is there another?

There is another version (it might be the single version) where the harmonies are much stronger and that is my favorite. I'll see if I can find it. UPDATE: I found the single version and I like the harmonies much better on this mix. Especially in the "I don't hold you down" part.
listen at the 1:30 mark, clearly different. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBL2BDOBAAI |
My favorite is the one commonly referred to as the "duet version." Lindsey and Christine trade vocals. I think having it be a duet adds an interesting layer to the song.

EDIT: the version Nancy shared above might be it! |

Both are good. I like the single version better. Its more polished and I usually prefer the rough cuts. But this time I vote single.
IMHO if this was the first single from Tusk it would have made the top 10 and they would have sold many more albums. This is the most radio friendly song on the album. Tusk made the top 10 from the limelight of Rumours and the Mac's first song since that album. But its not a mainstay of classic rock songs on stations today. I just think this song sounds very traditional Fleetwood Mac and would have blunted criticism the band got when Tusk was released. |
The single version is sped up and a slightly different mix. I prefer it to all other versions of the song. It is one of Christine's best rockers and a great example of how LB enhanced her songs back in their heyday.

By accident I hit “other”. But the 2/79 version is my favorite. Her voice is strong sans the double tracking and reverb, and the whole effect of her and Stevie singing together gives this a cool, tough, girl pop quality. I also love hearing the organ instead of the crunching guitar during the instrumental break.

It could have been backed by Cool Water which was the B-side to Gypsy. |

The record company picks the single not LB. Warners picked Tusk to lead off.
