Seriously, I love them all!! But if I must put them in order, it would be like:

- Love in Store
- Wish You Were Here
- Only Over You
- Hold Me


I like Hold Me, but I think Chris really shines in WYWH and OOY. The piano, the arrangements, Lindsey's guitar and the harmonies are really amazing and sound very good! I love to hear Lindsey and Stevie's vocals on Love in Store, and I don't want to repeat it all the time, but I think that WYWH is the best end for a FM album (from the Rumours era, of course!!)
Regards!!

I love them all too. After most of her Tusk songs, Mirage and Tango was a come back. I ended up voting for Love in Store because I like her opening the albums and great Stevie harmony. WYWH was a great way to close the album. Hold Me is good but I don't listen to it too often. It gets old kind of fast. Only Over You great vocals lovely song.

Hold Me is one of the best FM songs, period. I like all of her Mirage songs, though.

I love them all as well, and while "Hold Me" is an obvious choice I gotta throw some love at "Only Over You".

I love "hold me" it's my favorite Fleetwood Mac song. I do think they could have added a little bit to the verses to make the beginning part of the song two minutes instead of a minute and a half.

Only over you is the second best Christine song on Mirage.

Then Love in Store.

Default Never Take Your Love Away..........

I'm hoping for a track on the new disc that has the impact of this great chorus like on Love in Store.

"Wish You Were Here" has taken on a whole new meaning for me. I'm using it as one of the songs for my dad's Memorial service.

That's touching and my sympathies. I used lyrics from Temporary One for mine, 9 years ago. The bridge that separates us is a temporary one.

Oh. Hey. It started raining a little inside, right on my face. I've always thought it was an overlooked song.
