paired with the music, "would you still love to linger up against the wall" is right up there for me with the sound and feel of "and you wake up singing one of my songs" for some reason. just love those two phrases and the way he wrapped them into music and sings them. (and, Gone Too Far also has a lot of save mes in it too........)

It's insane but they actually did put an "explicit material" label on Christine's song and all she said was: "You could take me out. You could lay me down, but don't get serious. Let's just play around." We could not understand why the warning was there at all.

"Right out loud The time has come and gone without you Inside me love to be written about you" what's inside is all the love I have for you to write about... Now if you had quoted something like the line in Angel "when you were good, you were verrry, very good" that's another story.... |

I mean, it's just like a very innocent line, "come on over, let me put you on ice" really takes on a sultry meaning when Stevie sings it live and puts a pause in there and she says, "come on over, let me put you . . . on ice." A lot depends on where the break comes and in Without You, the break influences my take on the sentence. It's like Andrew Marvell in To His Coy Mistress. He means what the line breaks imply. I'm not saying that Stevie is Marvell. Or Bob Dylan. Michele |

well, if she *were* Bob Dylan, you'd never be able to say that to her.

I love this song and their harmonies. They should be proud of this.

I think this song is PERFECTLY suited for some Christine McVie harmonies on the chorus. I can almost hear her when I listen with headphones (I think it's just Lindsey's doctored high voice that seems to be channeling Chris).

I always saw it as two separate lines: The time has come and gone without you Inside of me, a love to be written about you But not anymore!

The way it's phrased, there's a break between "inside me" and "love to be written about you" so you could definitely look at it either way. And I definitely thought it was a little bit suggestive the first few times I heard it. But I thought I was the only one/had a dirty mind so I'm glad someone else brought this up.

Now that quite a bit of time has passed I'd like to point out that Miss Fantasy is my favorite song on the EP. When the music was first released I enjoyed every song. But now MF is the only one I listen to on a regular basis. I burned the EP to a disc as one whole track originally and enjoyed every song. But It Takes Time is a song I have grown to dread, whereas I enjoyed it when it was new. Now that thing drones on endlessly and when I'm stupid enough to hit the forward fast button it just goes back to the beginning of SA. I got smart recently and burned MF to another CD as an individual track. The only thing I don't like about MF is the 2nd line of the song when Lindsey sings in a higher key that is just not suited to his voice.

I wish I could say the same, Viv. I'm jealous of your enjoyment, to be honest.
Now that quite some time has passed, I have to say, I mostly just forget this EP even exists. Except for the occasion when Sad Angel pops into my head, which is enjoyable. But I still can't find enthusiasm for the other songs. I feel like they're basically all just worse versions of songs that already exist elsewhere in the Mac-and-Mac-Adjacent catalogue. |
