Stevie, Lindsey or Christine?

[elle]

who is your favorite Rumours-era singer/songwriter?

i may be wrong, but i have a feeling that most people on these boards have a clear preference for one or the other singer/songwriter, so this will be a very easy decision.

for people who are purely FM fans and love them all together and equally, or 2 of them equally (BN fans?), i understand this may be really hard, but please try to still pick just one...

from reading various forums here, my estimate would be there are maybe 5-10 Christine fans, ~20 Lindsey fans, and probably way more than 30-40 Stevie fans that are active at least occasionally... but i might be completely off.

I feel like a member of a cult sometimes 10 of us dancing around Christine Perfect.

Yeah, I always feel like Steve E. fans start these polls, so that she can win...


But WE know who the heart of FM is...

Agree 100%. In terms of songwriters-singers, that's the reason I love Fleetwood Mac.
There are times I love to listen Stevie songs, then there are Lindsey periods, or Christine months.. but actually it's the combination that I love. That's why my favorite band is not a one singer band.

And yes I miss Christine, Fleetwood Mac is not the same without her.

I completely relate and agree with you on this. The Mac is my favorite all time band. I also like all three of them in their solo endevers. I also am proud to say that Ms. Nicks is my musical obsession. I am completely inspired by her poetry and songwriting. I love her passionate stage performances both now and in her hayday. I miss the three voices that were made for each other and the rhythmn section that makes The Mac into the the best most unique band in the history of 70's era Rock-N-Rolla.

thanks to both of you for playing!

i was looking at the numbers of people voting in MSB's polls here, people voting in the SN forum poll about what her next step will be (~80 i think?), plus comparing 49 people voting on lindsey's tusk songs so far, vs the maximum number of people voting in any recently created poll in lindsey forum (41)... and was just curious. so figure i should ask!

I did a poll about 12-13 years ago to decide the favorite all-time member of Fleetwood Mac. John McVie won!

for some reason, that doesn't surprise me!

there may have been even the same poll as this one some time in the last number of years? but membership seems to be changing a lot so thought it would be interesting to find out current state. although not sure how many people from stevie forum are reading the rumours one...

[bluefox4000]

Do you even have to ask me???? It's Lindsey. I remember seeing the Dance and at first not being that impressed. But when Lindsey kicked into ISA, that was it. I just clicked with him. I gradually came to appreciate the entire band.....but the catalyst was always Lindsey. He was always nice to look at too.

Oh, why do you do this to yourself? It's obvious where this is headed. Chiffon for the win.

All three have had their ups and downs, Christine without a doubt being the most consistent, but not always the most interesting. Lindsey, is just pure, raw talent and the band's main artistic presence. Stevie, though gets my vote simply for being so unique, the largest (vastly untapped) material catalogue and when her voice was hot, she couldn't be beat. She has also proven to be the most sustainable although inconsistent, presence.

I think her voice is still hot

[Silver Springs]

Lindsey, of course. I would consider Christine second even though I don't like most of her music. There's no denying that her songs are well written; just so damn slushy that I can barely cope with them.

maybe other chiffonheads are too busy over in SN forum? maybe they don't even know there are other forums here?
