Default Which Era of Christing Songs Do You Like The Most?

I know I don't post much in this forum, but I do love Chris's songs. Her voice is very powerful and her songs are amazing.

I was just curious as to which era of Chris's songs do you like the most? Pre Rumours, Rumous or Post Rumours (starting with BTM).

I think I like her Post Rumours songs the best. Her TIME songs are classic for me.

Much Love,
Ethan

Pre Rumours. To me, that includes the White FM album. So yeah, that was all vintage Christine for me.

Well, I picked "post Rumours", but I just LOVE Christine's voice -- period! From her Chicken Shack days through In the Meantime, her voice was just unique and amazing and astonishing and...... She could read out of a phone directory and still sound awesome!!!

And really, I think her voice has actually IMPROVED with age, starting with the early 80s (Mirage, her self-titled solo album, etc.) And even In the Meantime -- who would have thought the woman singing those songs was age 61!?!?!?! LOL (And yes, Christine is the reason I LOVE the Time album!)

Okay, enough silly rambling for now.....

Gosh, this is a tough one. I love all the eras for different reasons. I chose the Rumors-era (which I thought included the white album) because she was, at this time, most consistently excellent; but I can't imagine how impoverished my listening experiences would be without "Remember Me," "Why," "Prove Your Love," "Crazy 'Bout You Baby" (live-in-studio from Madison Blues), "No Road is the Right Road," and her many great Chicken Shack songs and performances.

And then there's "Hollywood," "Temporary One," and every song on ITM...

Damn, I love the music she's given us. Simply put, FM would not have endured past the early 70s without her.

And just because I feel like it, I'm gonna' praise the lord we have "Sugar Daddy"--my all-time favorite Mac tune.

Definitely the Rumours era for me. I adore Songbird and Over & Over.
