I forgot to add "Family Man" and "Caroline". "Tango in the Night" is my favourite Fleetwood Mac album after "Tusk", but those two songs are diabolocal.

"Caroline" is one of my favorites!

Christine - "Sugar Daddy", "Warm Ways", "Over My Head". I'm not a fan of her contributions to the White album. At all. I find them boring and I think she wrote better songs during the Buckingham-Nicks era. However, I think she is the most consistently good writer, even though Stevie's songs are my favourite.

Stevie - "Sweet Girl", "Goodbye Baby" (well, I love the early demos), "The Second Time", "Paper Doll".

Lindsey - "Oh Diane", "Empire State", "Can't Go Back", "Eyes Of The World", "Book Of Love". I can't stand his "Mirage" contributions.

I so agree with everyone of Lindsey's "Mirage Songs...don't like Empire State or Oh Diane..I can tolerate Eyes of the World. Stevie Good Bye Baby and The Second Time...they just drag. Save Me from Christine.

Love Sugar Daddy! Love Temporary One!

Okay, now that I've defended those two tunes, here's the list of FM songs I don't like:

When You Say
All Jeremy's Mr. Wonderful Songs (except for Rockin' and Evening Boogie)
Morning Rain (the album version)
The Ghost
I'm a Road Runner
The City
For Your Love
Coming Home (Bob Welch's version)
Safe Harbor
She's Changing Me
Can't Go Back
Empire State
Straight Back
Oh Diane
When I See You Again
Welcome to the Room Sara
No Questions Asked
Most of the Songs from Behind the Mask (except Save Me, Affairs of the Heart and the title tune)
Paper Doll (truly awful)
All of Dave Mason's songs
These Changing Times
All Over Again
Smile At You
Silver Girl
Come

Hate "Silver Girl" too, and "Peacekeeper". "Peacekeeper" is possibly my most hated Fleetwood Mac song ever.

I like Peacekeeper and despise Silver Girl. I believe most of us HATE Silver Girl and Oh Diane.

Straight Back and Smile at You? Wow, I love those songs.
I agree about Paper Doll, I sometimes like it a little, but is so odd lyrically.

Never heard of dislike from fans on ISA, that song just rocks.

Never liked Empire State as well.

At least for the ones that we dislike, there are tons more that we do like and totally rock and make us happy.

This thread is so interesting to me to hear about songs others dislike that I have loved all these years, but just like the songs, they are unique, just like us fans and that is a very good thing. Life on here would be boring if everyone had the same likes and dislikes.

Why "Oh Diane" was released as a single I'll never know. If they were going to choose a Lindsey song for release, I don't get why they didn't choose "Book of Love".

I prefer the FM Live version of Oh Well, to be honest.

There's not a whole lot of blues-rock that I care for, honestly. Then Play On contains too much "noodling" for me. I'm not explaining it terribly well. And Bare Trees is just very unpleasant for me. Especially "Sentimental Lady." I kinda like the Dog & Dustbin album, but I'd honestly rather listen to Muddy Waters or Robert Johnson. I really do feel like I've given the pre-Rumours line-up a fair shake. It just isn't my cup of tea, in general.

Oh my god, that Christine song is HORRENDOUS! I love her, but I like to pretend her solo albums don't exist.

WildHeart69 · #44 09-25-2009, 09:03 PM

Wow, am I the ONLY one who can't get through "You and I, Pt 2"??!??!
That and "Silver Girl" are my two all time least favs.

I dont think I dislike any of LB's other FM contributions (I would say Family Man, but I love his playing in it...)

Depending on my mood I almost never listen to "That's Alright", but over the years it has grown on me a bit.

Jupiter · #45 10-04-2009, 04:32 PM

The only FM songs that I really dislike are pretty much everything Lindsey did on Tusk, but I've never been able to conclude whether that was because I love Stevie and Christine's songs on there so much that they just can't compare. Am I the only person who loves "Silver Girl?" Quite a bit might I add.
