Default Say You Will in the Meantime playlist

This has probably been done before in one way or another, but here it goes. Even before I knew the specs of Lindsey's intended GOS from 2001 I was aware that his contributions were from a solo project, and as much as I like SYW, flaws & all - it's not a perfect album, but a pretty artistic one from an aging Mac - I still recognize that most are correct in thinking it sounds like "2 solo albums mashed together". And I really do think had the GOS from '01 been released, w the running order that was leaked, would have been one of Lindsey's best solo efforts.

So in wanting to make a 'what if' playlist including Christine songs from ITM, I created Say You Will in the Meantime. The ITM songs I chose are the only ones on the album I think are good.. I also think they are the most Mac sounding from Christine's ITM batch. I also realize that ITM was released in 2004, we don't know what she had written by 2003, an album like this would be outside the realm of possibility, etc.. but I do think had she been involved, her contributions to the album could have easily been similar to the ITM tracks I included.. musically, lyrcally, they just have that FM vibe.

I dropped the 'extreme' Lindsey tracks, Murrow & Rover. And again, had Christine been involved, I believe it's possible that the Lindsey songs I included could have been the top contenders for his contributions to SYW- assuming he was also choosing his songs based on what was most "middle ground" for a Mac situation. And the Stevie tracks I dropped I just really don't care for as much.

Say You Will in the Meantime

1. What's The World Coming To
2. Thrown Down
3. Miranda
4. Friend
5. Destiny Rules
6. Steal Your Heart Away
7. Givin' It Back
8. Say You Will
9. Peacekeeper
10. You Are
11. Illume
12. Silver Girl
13. Bleed To Love Her
14. Nortern Star
15. Come
16. Smile At You
17. Easy Come, Easy Go
18. Say Goodbye
19. Running Through The Garden

Anyway, all my ranting & explaining the whats and whys aside, this is best summed up as what SYW very well could've sounded like had it been recorded w Christine, or as simply each FM songwriter's most Mac sounding songs,in my oppinion, from SYW & ITM.

Tell me what you think, what you'd change, post you're own if you done this before, try it if you haven't.. i found it interesting.. maybe I have too much time on my hands

Murrow Turning Over In His Grave
Illume
Friend
Thrown Down
Miranda
Smile At You
Silver Girl
Easy Come, Easy Go
Peacekeeper
Destiny Rules
Come
Steal Your Heart Away (the version from the Best Buy Dance Tour CD)
So Sincere
You Are
Red Rover
Say You Will
Anything Is Possible
Say Goodbye


Really though, the songs don't fit all that well. Christine's are mostly upbeat and Say You Will feels like an album about warnings.....a feeling of 'don't invest yourself too much in your surroundings, it's an unsafe world.' That probably makes no sense....

To make it all fair and balanced, I'd pick 5 songs from each singer-songwriter...

Christine -

Friend, Liar, Northern Star, Calumny, Bad Journey.

Stevie -

Thrown Down, Everybody Finds Out, Running Through The Garden, Destiny Rules, Say You Will.

Lindsey -

Peacekeeper, Miranda, Red Rover, Bleed To Leave Her, Steal Your Heart Away.

I don't know how it would sequence though. I suck at that sort of thing.

This has been done on here before but I never get tired of playing the game. Here's my list, for 18 songs:

Lindsey:

Murrow
Miranda
Peacekeeper
Bleed To Love Her
Goodbye
Steal Your Heart Away

Stevie:

Illume
Throw Down
Everybody Finds Out
Say You Will
Destiny Rules

Christine:

Friend
You Are
Anything is Possible
Forgiveness
Liar
Givin' It Back
Bad Journey

Honestly, I think anyone of Christine's songs could've been a hit on Say You Will--and they would have fit in perfectly given the same arrangements as the other songs.

Tell me what you think, what you'd change.

good songs....... if you want us to release this.
