1. Welcome to the Room Sara (I've lost ledgie friends over this one)
2. Mystified (True Buckingham/McVie chemistry)
3. When I See You Again (Somehow I'm able to get over the horrible singing by Stevie and Lindsey saves the song)

It is probably the only song on Rumours that I have not grown tired of hearing.

Only Over you.

I really don't understand how people don't like this song. It's catchy. The bass is great. The guitar is great. Christine is great.

Mystified

Empire State

Empire State - I don't know WHY this is hated. I think it's awesome.

Blow By Blow. I really like Bekka's voice in this...

Silver Girl. Dodgy lyrics aside...

This is a tough thread since its hard to know what others don't like.
But I never chicken out and here it goes:

Only over you. Its so romantic and has amazing entrancing guitar work by Lindsey at the end of the song. Its also sung from the heart. Without knowing anything about Fleetwood Mac or Christine McVie, the listener can tell the person singing the song, wrote the song.

Empire State - Its not a favorite of mine but I routinely see it bashed here. I think its better than the majority of Lindsey songs on Tusk. Its part rebel and has some amazing music. It has many Tusk elements but with a early 80's feel.

Silver Girl - I love every song on Say You Will. And this is definitely one of them. I think it flows perfectly and the lyrics are Stevie telling a story. But the song comes together perfectly. I don't think this song would have worked on a Stevie solo album.

No...not Stevie's Tango contributions.

But....

The Second Time (I like this song and thought it sounded great in 1990 and was surprised is wasn't in the live set)

Sugar Daddy (I like this song it's so warm on vinyl and a great vocal/harmony mix)

Family Man ( I think it's a great Lindsey song and nice 80's production)

Good pick
I should have selected Sugar Daddy too.
I love the bluesy sound of the song

Honestly I pretty much agree with the majority on pretty much all the generally disliked songs. I don't love any of them. I like the whole time album but I don't think that's what's being asked. It's the unpopular rumours era songs (Stevie's tango songs, Lindsey's mirage songs etc) and again I find pretty much all of those either bad or just ehh. Of the list I'm about to make I'm pretty sure only 1 is in the truly unpopular category:

1. No Questions Asked
2. Freedom (is this unpopular?)
3. Not That Funny (this is a huge stretch, I don't think any song from tusk could ever be considered unpopular but I feel if one Lindsey song was generally less popular it's this one)
