Seems like an arbitrary comparison to compare two albums based on track order, but I'll play.
1. Love In Store vs. Big Love 2. Can't Go Back vs. Seven Wonders 3. That's Alright vs. Everywhere 4. Book of Love vs. Caroline 5. Gypsy vs. Tango In The Night 6. Only Over You vs. Mystified 7. Empire State vs. Little Lies 8. Straight Back vs. Family Man - Honestly can't think of what Straight Back sounds like. I guess I've been skipping it for so long. 9. Hold Me vs. Welcome To The Room Sara 10. Oh Diane vs. Isn't It Midnight 11. Eyes Of The World vs. When I See You Again 12. Wish You Were Here vs. You & I ii Both with 6. All Lindsey and Christine tracks. |

This is a hard one.
Not sure if there's any reason to compare. Tango In The Night features Stevie Nicks's worst batch of songs and her most horrible/weakest vocals of her career (aside from her parts on Little Lies). But the album was a high point for Christine McVie and broke new ground for Buckingham. Overall, I don't think it stands up over time due to the heavy 80's production/sound. Mirage is a better album - more cohesive and with stronger songs, timeless harmonies and gorgeous vocals from Stevie Nicks. |

While I don't believe this really tells anything (apples to oranges), here are my picks.
Also - I hate hate hate hate song abbreviations. Spell the damn things out. Love In Store vs Big Love Can't Go Back vs Seven Wonders That's Alright vs Everywhere Book of Love vs Caroline Gypsy vs Tango In The Night - cannot choose - both are great. Only Over You vs Mystified Empire State vs Little Lies - This was tough, too. I wanted to give the vote to Empire State, but come on - it's Little Lies! Straight Back vs Family Man Hold Me vs Welcome To The Room...Sara Oh Diane vs Isn't It Midnight Eyes of the World vs When I See You Again Wish You Were Here vs You & I, Part 2

Love In Store vs Big Love (toss up)
Can't Go Back vs Seven Wonders That's Alright vs Everywhere Book of Love vs Caroline (neither ...although AFTER hearing OotC, "Caroline" is a little less annoying) Gypsy vs Tango in the Night (the 3rd easiest choice) Only Over You vs Mystified (another toss up) Empire State vs Little Lies (by a RCH) Straight Back vs Family Man Hold Me vs Welcome to the Room...Sara (probably the 2nd easiest choice of the poll) Oh Diane vs Isn't It Midnight (by far THE easiest, "Oh Diane" is Bottom 5 Fleetwood Mac songs ever released) Eyes Of The World vs When I See You Again Wish You Were Here vs You & I, Part 2 - Both albums are probably my least played Fleetwood Mac albums. In my iPod playist of "Fleetwood Mac Thru The Years". Only one Mirage song made the cut (DUH! "Gypsy"), 2 from Tango In The Night ("Isn't It Midnight", "Big Love")

They are such different albums that a "this over that" preference is odd. But here we go:
Love in Store vs. Big Love Can't Go Back vs. Seven Wonders That's Alright vs. Everywhere (The demo of Everywhere is better than either) Book of Love vs. Caroline Gypsy vs. Tango in the Night Only Over You vs. Mystified (The only tough choice so far) Empire State vs. Little Lies Straight Back vs. Family Man Hold Me vs. Welcome to the Room Oh Diane vs. Isn't it Midnight Eyes of the World vs When I See You Again Wish You Were Here vs. You and I, Part II Mirage 10, Tango 2 As much as I like listening to both albums, when I pit the songs next to each other in this way I realize Mirage has a lot more substance than Tango. Almost every song on Tango is catchy, quirky, and calculated; whereas the songs on Mirage have genuine charm and character. Only Little Lies seems to hold up and trump many (but not all) of the Mirage tunes. As I said above, the demo version of "Everywhere" is fantastic; the studio version seems almost sickeningly sweet. But then tthe Rumours-era demo for That's Alright trumps the album version, too. |

Can't Go Back vs Seven Wonders That's Alright vs Everywhere Book of Love vs Caroline Gypsy vs Tango in the Night Only Over You vs Mystified Empire State vs Little Lies Straight Back vs Family Man Hold Me vs Welcome to the Room...Sara Oh Diane vs Isn't it Midnight Eyes of the World vs When I See You Again Wish You Were Here vs You and I, Part II The live version of Eyes of the World would probably trump When I See You Again for me ... but EOTW is almost a different song live these days to what was recorded in studio in the 80's. And I think you can only fairly compare a live song with another live song, and a studio song with another studio song. I like Tango in the Night but Gypsy is special to me being the song that really made me fall in love with the Mac. My favourite version of Gypsy is the Live in Boston 2003 performance, Stevie's age at the time and the look in her eyes really lends itself to the nostalgia in the lyrics like she's looking back on her turbulent past, all her traipsing around the globe. Lindsey nailed the guitar solo that night naturally and his guttural cries of "Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice" add a lot to the song. I like how Stevie used to introduce the song with "This is for all the gypsies out there"... just like how Rhiannon in 2013 is missing "This is a song about an old Welsh witch". Finally, Family Man is just god-awful. Dare I say it ...even worse than Welcome to the Room...Sara. |

I feel like this exact thread already happened recently. Am I wrong? I remember mine was 6-6.
