Lindsey: "That's Enough For Me." Even Chris didn't like this song. Also "Oh Diane."

Chris: "Love In Store." I might get killed for that one, but I skip it everytime. I used to say "Sugar Daddy," but I like the song now.

Stevie: "Freedom." I also don't like Seven Wonders that much.

Chris- Little Lies. I even hate the video where they're sitting in a barn dressed like Spandu Ballet.

Lindsey- Oh Diane (clearly I'm not the only one), Caroline, Family Man, I Know I'm Not Wrong

Stevie- everything on Tango in the Night. Yes even Seven Wonders.

Yeah...I'm not a TITN fan.

But otherwise, I just think it's creepy to call a romantic mate "Daddy" or "Mama" or . . . well, "sis" would not work either.

And that would bring me to Sugar Daddy, which I don't really like. But I never had to listen to over and over again, so I can't really "hate" it either. It had the good grace not to shove itself at me. Michele
Hogwash! Oh Daddy and Sugar Daddy are excellent tunes. Each also refers to "daddy" in a different sense, one earnestly, the other ironically. They're among my favorite tunes.

Well, I love pretty much most of the stuff, but here are a few tunes I simply cannot stand:

Stevie: No Questions Asked, Paper Doll, Welcome to the Room Sara, Silver Girl

Christine: Skies the Limit, Mystified, All Over Again

Lindsey: Never Going Back Again, Empire State, Oh Diane, Can't Go Back, Make Me a Mask

Hahaha , that is the most accurat description of the video ever.

I hate "Little Lies", not because it is a really bad song, but because everyone knows it and starts singing it when you mention that you like FM. And boy, they did so many better songs, they don't deserve to have this one boring-you-to-tears-tune being their signatur song.

The only thing I can say good about Seven Wonders is that I love the video. Not into the song. Although, if they'd put it in the Unleashed setlist, I'm sure I would have been thrilled.

I would agree that Family Man is pretty awful. Put Make Me a Mask on there instead. Michele

My God - if they put Seven Wonders in the Unleashed set I'd go crazy!! I love it! I'm hoping they add it to the European dates since Tango was so big over here but I very much doubt they'll change the set at all.

I don't know Make Me A Mask - what is it from? Is it a Mac b-side?

I think it's from the 25th anniversary boxed set...
It's fabulous. Very original, very ... uh, I don't know. Post-60s opium den-ish.
Dreamy and gorgeous.

Okay, I don't hate the song, but I think they made a huge mistake on Say You Will by putting those kids on at the end...it just ruined it. I know that sounds awful and I feel terrible saying it. I may be one of the few that feels this way...a lot of people might think its sweet and charming or whatever. It irks me, though. I always change the song when it gets to the end. I can't stand to listen to it.

I agree with this so much!

Songs I could do without:

Lindsey's - Oh Diane

Christine's - Oh Daddy

Stevie's - Silver Girl

I just can't get into them.

I try to say away from the neg waves and focus on the positive, however, I will say that almost all of Mirage is a washout of me. I like the first 5 songs (1. Love In Store 2. Can't Go Back 3. That's Alright 4. Book Of Love 5. Gypsy) but really really dislike the rest of the album except for Christine's "Wish You Were Here". But that's it. Only Over You/Empire State/Straight Back/Hold Me/Oh Diane/Eyes Of The World are liver. If you could eat those songs, they would taste like liver. Seriously.
