On more than one occasion, she has definitely said “Oh Daddy” is her favorite. In one interview, she emphatically claims it has always been her favorite.

On a related note, both Christine and Stevie credit Stevie with the line: “and I can’t walk away from you baby if I tried.” Sadly, the line is ungrammatical. Alternatives would be: “and I couldn’t walk away from you, baby if I tried” (which is rhythmically off) or “and I can’t walk away from you, even though I’ve tried” (which is a bit prosy).

If you listen to the Rumours deluxe, an early version of “Oh Daddy” has Christine’s original, less memorable but fully grammatical line. (I can’t recall it in full right now, but it ends with “through the night.”).
