I enjoy the demo, but there's no comparison to the finished product. And of course the irony is that both of those songs were always hard to pull off, live. How do you live up to the record?

Hold Me is a pop masterpiece. That piano riff at the beginning, the catchy lyrics, amazing percussion, and Lindsey's guitar solo. I once heard Chris say when she wrote the song, it just came very suddenly. Gypsy is also a masterpiece. Probably the best bridge of any Mac or Stevie song. She nails it. Both could have been #1 songs. But the timing was not there. I forget the songs but during each song's peak there was a traffic jam with some song just stuck at #1 for a long time which locked the top ten without much movement. Lets not forget. Mirage was #1 for 5 weeks. I wish there was a video for Love in Store so it could have climbed out of the top 20. But like Mick said, once the short Mirage tour was over, the magic of Mirage was over. Everyone had their own record deals. They could have pumped more life into Mirage but there just was not time

Getting into the top 10 back in those days was a massive achievement. If you look back at any top 10 from that period its full of instantly recognisable stars and banger songs- far different to today. That's not to say hitting the top 10 is easy these days, but there are relatively few contemporary hits that will have a lasting legacy.

If you have any evidence of Stevie being on Lindsey's songs on Tusk I'd love to hear it.

"That's All For Everyone" has so many layered vocals its hard to tell. I don't hear her on "Save Me A Place" (shame), "What Makes You Think You're The One" (considering what the song is about, no surprise), "Not That Funny", or "That's Enough For Me." |

Anything and everything is probably buried in the Tusk song. I thought I heard Chris' voice a bit on Save Me a Place....but again, It's probably just Lindsey.
