another blog (that bashes Chris' songs!)
google is so amusing LOL.
-Lis ***** ah yes. everyone thinks that this is the best fleetwood mac album EVAR. they are mistaken. but regardless, it is still pretty f*cking sweet. like any fleetwood mac album, stevie's songs are the best (i love you, stevie. call me.) but i think that pretty much goes without saying. so i guess one of her most famous songs is on here, dreams (which is really sexy and makes me want to light candles and drink wine and have long deep conversations and i don't even like wine and deep conversations are not my strong point) and then gold dust woman, which is fanf*ckintastic, but seriously, her songs on tusk are the best she's ever done. anywho. i don't understand what makes this everyone's favorite fleetwood mac album. but then again i don't understand what makes dirt everyone's favorite alice in chains album. is it because they were "breakthrough" albums? because they sold more? since when does that make an album better? see, the thing is... rumours is great, and all, but christine mcvie's songs f*ck up the perfection of the whole thing. actually, her songs are usually the weak part of any fleetwood mac album (i don't love you christine, please don't call) with the exception of tusk, because that album is pure delicious perfection sprinkled with sugar, but her songs on rumours are especially lame. "don't stop"? come on. that **** is WEAK. just horrible. in fact, i am going to skip it. and then there's "songbird", which, while quite lovely and of the "moves you to tears" variety when performed live because you know she wrote it for john mcvie, even though they were in the midst of divorce (oh drama), is a f*cking snore bore galore on the album. and it's right in the f*cking middle. skip, plz. "you make loving fun" is good enough that you think maybe she has redeemed herself, and then here comes "oh daddy". i believe atrocious is a good word for that song. i can't even express to myself the many ways that song sucks, much less to anyone else. also i read somewhere that it was written for mick fleetwood. does that mean she called him daddy? sick ****. in conclusion, i love her voice when she's singing backup. but alone, she takes up album space that lindsey or stevie could have done better things with. thank you, that is all. |

Rumours isn't my fave, either, but it's not all Christine's fault. I can't understand why someone favors Stevie's songs over hers in the case of this album. In general, it's just not my favorite compared to the others. To me, the only masterpiece on the album is "Never Going Back Again." In the cases of Stevie and Christine, they have such better songs on other albums, IMO.
And of course I don't like "Oh Daddy" being about Mick. Stupid Mick. I still don't think "Don't Stop" is "horrible," just overplayed. Anyway, I've read some reviews and blog entries that have made me far more upset than that one. That one just made me laugh. "I don't love you Christine please don't call" cracked me up. Yeah, I'm sure the feeling's mutual. And that person is so wrong for saying that Christine's song are the "weak part of any FM album. This person must not have Tango! Whenever I go on Amazon and read Time reviews in which they say it's "not Fleetwood Mac without Stevie and Lindsey" I get mad. I also read a review saying that Christine couldn't save the album because her songs sucked just as much as the others. That pissed me off because I think her Time songs are really fantastic. I also hate it when they talk about Bekka like she's white trash in those reviews. And, of course, in various other reviews of other albums people really pit Stevie and Christine against each other sometimes, completely dogging one and acting like the other is a goddess. That's annoying. Last edited by GateandGarden; 08-04-2005 at 01:36 PM.. |
