I disagree with ya there Mick, Over and Over to me, is Christine's best song. Honey Hi I also find a cute little track. Sisters of the Moon is my favourite Stevie song on Tusk. Again, a hard poll because Fleetwood Mac to me, doesn't get much better than this quirky, delicious, sprawling masterpiece. All three writers knock it out of the park.

I don't think it's very fair to put Stevie's and Christine's songs in the same poll, poor Christine doesn't have a chance here...
I'm voting for Honey Hi, Brown Eyes and Beautiful Child (though i love Angel too but it's just so much better live that i'm gonna save my vote Beautiful Child, which is just perfection).

Wow this was hard. I chose Beautiful Child, Storms and Honey Hi.

Honey Hi is the only Chris song really like on that album expect for maybe Brown Eyes. I would have picked Angel if I could have one more and even though I love Sisters of the Moon I love the piano demo much more.

I did debate with myself about combining Christine and Stevie's together. Also I'm trying not to have too many polls cause towards the end of my contest, I've noticed people get a little "polled-out" if you will.

Plus I allowed 3 choices, hoping Christine would get at least 1 of em! We could move her top song along in the contest.

Besides I think Christine will do very well with Mirage and especially Tango in the Night and Behind the Mask.

I went with Sisters of the Moon, Storms, and Angel, although I was seriously considering Beautiful Child because, as previously mentioned, Angel is just killer live, and the album version doesn't do the song justice at all. I wish the backing vocals had been more prominent, as well as the guitar, and a slightly faster tempo would have been nice.

I only voted for two because there were only two I liked. Storms and Beautiful Child.

"Storms" and "Brown Eyes" were easy choices, as I've always loved both. "Sisters" and "Angel" are better live. As much as I adore "Over and Over" (would have been my fourth choice), I went with "Beautiful Child," which seems to resonate more and more with me as I age.

I love Sisters live so much better. Angel for some reason I like the crispness of the studio. I like your choices tho..

All of these are my fav songs from Tusk... but I had to whittle it down to Storms, Beautiful Child, and Brown Eyes. To me, these three songs represent some of the best Stevie & Christine ever brought to the Mac table. I think some of Stevie's most gorgeous vocals of her career are on Beautiful Child. I think Storms probably has the best lyrics of her entire career. And I think Brown Eyes is probably one of the most perfect (in every possible way) song the Mac ever recorded.
