The only song by Chris I really don't like is Never Make Me Cry.

Mystified.

Honey Hi

I find the lyrics very lazy

Oh so many to choose from....

Despite its acclaim, I really don't like "I'd Rather Go Blind"...

OMG I love this song. So lush and so dreamy.

Actually I can think of a number of Christine songs that stunk up the joint:

"Prove Your Love"
"Bad Loser"
"Come a Little Closer"
"Mystified"
"When You Say"

I guess you can say that I'm not a particularly big fan of Heroes Are Hard to Find and its boom-chicka-wah-wah sound. Admittedly, 1974 was a horrible year for music, so HAHtF is pretty much an artifact of its time. In hindsight, you can see easily that Bob Welch and Christine were kind of running on fumes creatively at this point.

Hollywood (some other kind of town). To me it sounds like the theme song to some cheesy 80's sitcom.

I actually really like that - good job we're not all the same isn't it?

Technically Mystified is a Lindsey song. He wrote it, most if it anyway, Christine performed it. My choice would either be Sugar Daddy or Temporary One.

The only song I really don't like by Christine (and it wasn't written by Christine, it was written by Danny Kirwan) is "When You Say". Even poor Christine couldn't save this turkey of a song.

Finally, something we can agree upon!

Good call--that gem gets my vote. I can't listen to it.

Well, that and our "undying devotion to Fleetwood Mac"...even though we MOSTLY disagree about what's good & bad about the band.

But, yeah, finally...some common ground!

You'd THINK that Christine would've found a way to make it listenable...but unfortunately, no. It's really HER only glitch tune....as well as Danny's. Of all the songs of his to cover...it's a shame that there's TWO VERSIONS of it to hate.
