I don't think the Gypsy video is all that special. Maybe for its time, but it doesn't wow me in any way.
i like the kid singing too on SYW. shoulda' been the first single (since it was the closest song to the "Mac" sound) with a big budget video with the band "morphing" into the singing kids at the end!

Yes! I too have always felt this. Apparently, so did 4/5 of the band...

1. Sugar Daddy is one of the band's best songs from any era.

2. Some of the Billy/Bekka duets on Time rank with the band's catchiest music.

3. The alternate take of Second Hand News is better because of the beautiful bass part.

4. Come a Little Bit Closer is a beautiful song that is destroyed by its arrangement.

5. One of LB's Tusk songs needed to be dropped in favor of one more Christine tune...

I like the Hold Me video much more. I guess Gypsy coincided with the rising popularity of MTV and that made it have such a memorable impact.

1. Bob Welch blows Lindsey away in the songwriting department

2. Bob Weston deserves more credit for his work on Mystery to Me

3. Tango is overrated and there isn't one song on it that I really love

4. 'The Derelict' is a great track, especially in its gritty, unfinished form

and last but not least...

5. Bare Trees and Heroes are Hard to Find are better than Tusk

1. Family Man is one of Lindsey's best songs
2. Penguin is better than Kiln House
3. The live version of Silver Springs is much better than the studio version
4. Lindsey has too many songs on Tusk, I don't care how short some of them are.
5. Say You Will is better than Mirage.
6. Illume is better than Rhiannon

1. Chris' songwriting declined after 1979.
2. Behind the Mask is better than TITN.
3. Mystery to Me is the best Mac album.
4. You and I part 1 is better than part 2.

Default Nice

1. LB is the main reason FM ever had the success they did, sorry SN
2. They missed the ball big time by stalling after the dance, what 1997 and then quiet until 2003, or 06 ? big mistake
3. I like Mirage very much, dont care for the White Album
4. Behind The Mask album isnt so bad, I like a few tunes
5. Carols book is the truth, for better or worse
6. This is the last tour for FM period, they will never make this kind of $$$ money again, I doubted the success of this tour but was quite wrong
7. Out Of The Cradle is right up there with Rumours, it is a perfect album
8. Sucks the way FM treats former people associated with them, its like they just forget them, really dis loyal
9. FM are better on STAGE than the Eagles
. Off topic, Stallone's movie CREED looks like could be a sleeper, KEY WORD, sleeper hit, he may have something there, people either laugh at the Rocky character and or the character is real to people, like music, Rocky has meant so much to so many people and has helped people realize their dreams and to never give up, sound corny? sure, but music has the same effect, bottom line Rocky movies and music of the Eagles and FM will still be watched and heard long after I die, so I guess thats timeless

There's nothing unpopular about that opinion among FM fans. I mean ... even people who love Eagles' music don't think they can't be beat as live performers.

Nice going guys.Get it off your minds.


I forgot to add.

Very very poor tour timing for this last tour.Effing winter tours.They suck.
I saw to many snow covered hills on this tour last winter.

Put off the the start of tour to 2015 .They ALL should record last summer or fall and release the album early this year and start the tour in late April or May the early summer months here in the states with less dates and hit Europe with less dates and Aussie/NZ as scheduled and its done at Christmas 2015.

Give Stevie and Lindsey 2016 to do their thing

In 2017 they can do their 40th Rumours Anni tour and throw in the towel or continue for years to come.

I like the Hold Me video better too. I think my main issue with Gypsy is that Stevie is the focus 80% of the time, whereas Hold Me portrays the band a bit more equally. Plus I like the surrealism/Magritte feeling in Hold Me.

Why don't they play "Oh Well" during the european leg of this tour? Great song, builds the bridge to the original FM and is a showcase for Lindsey. "Never going back again" is not such a crowd pleaser anyway.
