Storms was ruined on the Unleashed tour. The melancholy whispery sweetness was replaced by soulless bellowed tedium. She hit every note flat on the head. One. After. The. Other.

Beautiful Child was great on the SYW tour, though.

Sweet Girl? Oh, I am feeling a little queasy. The dance tour gave me a lifetime's supply of Sweet Girl.

I think it's Christine who has the biggest arsenal of songs we want to hear. So many to choose from, overwhelming really. I just hope the public will remember more than just Rumours. Her contributions were vital for so long, the binding force of the band. For Stevie, I'd like to hear Crystal with Lindsey, Gypsy acoustic, I Don't Want to Know, Beautiful Child, maybe Angel, and from Say You Will Thrown Down and Everybody Finds Out. From Lindsey, it's really more of his Tusk songs. If that's his crowning achievement (in his opinion), why does he play the same two non-hit songs over and over?? Most people are unfamiliar with Not that Funny and IKINW anyway. So that and maybe Big Love full band for once and a new version of an old song highlighting his fingerpicking. But for Christine I can go on and on: Why, Hypnotized, Oh Daddy, Hold Me, Love in Store, Over and Over, Think About Me, Brown Eyes, Honey Hi, Isn't It Midnight, As Long as You Follow, Nights in Estoril. Oh what might exist if she didn't take time off...

exactly!

there's treasure trove of his songs on both Tusk and Say You Will that would be so great to hear!!

The Ledge
What Makes You Think You're the One
Walk a Thin Line

are 3 songs from Tusk i so long to hear live but there are many people who feel equally about Save Me a Place, That's All For Everyone, etc.

and then:

Murrow Turning Over in His Grave
Miranda
Red Rover (talking about fingerpicking!)
Peacekeeper
Come
Steal Your Heart Away
Bleed to Love Her

he did perform Come and Bleed To Love Her on solo tours relatively frequently and Red Rover from time to time but not with Mac.

He played Red Rover With Fleetwood Mac in the SYW-legs of 2004. And Come during the whole SYW tour I think.

Yes, I don't put Bleed to Love Her among his neglected songs either. Far from it.

Steal Your Heart Away and Miranda would be really nice group vocal performances with Christine on board. Both songs have a vintage feel (circa '75 -'82).

A good song is a good song. It may not be universally recognizable, but that isn't justification for it not to be performed.

Steal Your Heart Away is one of my favorite FM songs. Reminds me of Storms. Absolutely beautiful.

Sweet Tooth Girl had it's moment in sun. Like you, I'm fine to let it decay away from the stage. There are better songs to be sung.

Aww, come one guys. Show some love for "Sweet Girl."

Still through the sunlighted days I wait
Track a ghost through the fog
The sun is burning me
And you come runnin' out
In the wind with me
The ocean is your blanket

That's one of the most beautiful things she's written.
