I like it. Those harmonies in the chorus are glorious! It really could have used a guitar solo around the 2-minute mark (think Hold Me). The outro is nice but way too brief. The chorus is almost ABBAesque. I also get a bit of a McCartney vibe with it being so sugary sweet, but it is so damn catchy, you can't help but bop along with it. I'm not a big fan of the airy production, even on Tango. I prefer the richer sound of Mirage. Great to hear Chris and Lindsey together again. They still do compliment one another, even on lightweight material.

Same here..the Fleet Foxes are one of the few younger bands that know how to make an entire album.

Not with that quirky, Lindsey Buckingham Brian Wilsonesque production. NO freaking way! Much better then that.

I respect that.

No you are not crazy.
You like it.
I hope it's a hit for them and the album sells some decent units.
I just am not thrilled too much with the first songs chosen for being previewed.

I'm still not sure about them either. But they have both grown on me.

I apologize if someone else already mentioned this, but the piano and rhythm section in the chorus remind me of "Summer Nights" from Grease. Not in an over obvious way, but...

I'm almost over the keyboard voicings.. and there's some brilliant stuff in here.

As I stated previously, I cancelled my pre-order.
I'm going to legally stream the album on my paid Google Play subscription when it's released before I decide on a purchase.

I love it! So nice to hear Christine's lush voice as soft as a warm breeze on a hot summer day. Great all around song.

I like It's Your World somewhat but Feel About You just gets worse with repeated listens. It does not come anywhere close to Christine's extraordinary run of hit singles with the band that began with Over My Head and ended with Everywhere.

I made a playlist with the two new songs and LB's "Sleeping Around the Corner" and I'm not sure what to make of it.

It's not that the three songs don't sound like Fleetwood Mac, just that they sound like club remixes of Fleetwood Mac songs. Like the production was intentionally done in a way to appeal to kids. I'm not saying it's bad, but certainly different from what I was expecting.

Another thing I noticed is that while the individual songs don't do a lot for me on their own, especially lyrically, they sound great together.

Cool Not feeling it

Fleetwood Mac is my favorite band of all time, but I can't say I love this song If you talk production, harmonies, guitars, or whatever that's all great.. but these lyrics? People get on Stevie for being trite lately but good lord these aren't the most inspired either. Lindsey's song to me was better, it was just a shame he didn't have Christine showcased more. Just my initial thoughts, Im sure I'll enjoy most of this collaboration.

I get the Paul McCartney vibe some people are getting. Interestingly I feel like the vocal "bum bum bums" during the chorus of Feel About You kind of sound like the music for Sherry by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Does anyone else hear this or is it just me lol?
