This is painful, more votes for Little Lies please. Those of you on edge, do a quick count and you'll see how close this is. Your votes COUNT! Don't waste them on stuff like GYOW or YMLF when you could choose the fates of Sara or Little Lies.

Ah, maybe so, but these votes for GYOW and YMLF will most definitely count in the next round. And when Sara, Little Lies, Go Your Own Way and You Make Loving Fun are all gone....what does that leave?

The votes only count in the event of a tie, otherwise those votes = wasted oportunity to remove one of the most outdated pieces of synthpop found on the greatest hits record. Please help end the tyranny of Little Lies and notice that many years after the fact some people are still plagiarizing with regards to Sara

Sara, it's so good, other people try to claim they wrote it. Has anyone tried to claim they wrote Little Lies? I don't think so. In fact numerous artists in '87 came out to vehemently deny that they wrote Little Lies:

Human League: I would have nothing to do with that synth driven, lyrically challenged piece of....

Boy George: What's the question? Lies? Me? Cocaine please.

PAULEY SHORE: I Wrote Little Lies.

Thank You - and let me just add, I like if not love Little Lies and think the unique sense of harmony created in the chorus was way cool. I just like the other songs better

I don't get all the "Little Lies" hate. I think it's pop perfection and one of FM's most recognizable songs. When people tell me they don't know the Mac, I sing the chorus for them, and they immediately know it. I still hear it on the radio.

"Sara" is not a strong single IMO on an album of hit singles. The fact that it hit the top ten is a testament to FM/Stevie's star power of the time, not the song itself. No catchy chorus, no hook, and lyrics that sound more like prose than verse. "Dreams" and "Gypsy" are much better Stevie singles.

I disagree with choosing certain songs to protect another song. If a large group of people dislikes a song, don't freak out and try to build a counter-group to delegitimize their opinion. Just choose the song you like the least.
