Talking Christine's list of hits

The definition of a hit for this list is cracking the top 40 on Billboard or top 10 on another chart.

Over my head #20 US Billboard

Say you love me #11 US Billboard

Don't Stop #3 US Billboard

You make loving fun #9 US Billboard

Think about me #20 US Billboard

Hold me #4 US Billboard (for seven weeks....31st biggest hit of 1982)

Love in store #22 US Billboard

Got a hold on me #10 US Billboard #1 Adult contemporary USA

Love will show us how #30 US Billboard

Little Lies #4 US Billboard #1 Adult contemporary USA

Everywhere #14 US Billboard #1 Belgium singles chart #1 Adult Contemporary USA

Save Me #33 US Billboard #7 Canada singles chart

Skies the limit #1 USA Adult contemporary chart

As long as you follow #43 US Billboard #1 Adult contemporary chart

Friend #29 US Adult contemporary chart


I know if I missed anything or something is wrong there will be more than one of you that will correct me

Looks right, though using your definition of a 'hit' Friend probably shouldn't really be on your list.
Other than that I guess you could argue a case for I'd Rather Go Blind (even though it was only a cover): Chickenshack UK #14 (though I dont think that version charted in the US).

You are right. I caught that after I posted the list. I was wondering if anyone would notice
You win!

It's quite an impressive list, revealing Christine has been the most consistent hit maker of the group. Even a lower charting song like As Long as You Follow still remains in the public conscious;. a few days ago I heard it playing in the grocery store.

I'd keep Friend. I heard it a lot when it came out.

I didn't know that Skies the Limit and As Long As You Follow both made it to #1 adult contemporary. Given that success, I'd find it surprising that these songs were never played in concert, even on the 1990 tour, but this is Fleetwood Mac after all.
