Oh I hate so much "Only Over You". Must be her only Fleetwood Mac song that I skip. On her solo tunes,

When You Say
So Excited
Easy Come, Easy Go

And a couple more from her 1984 which are, I agree, rather bland. The rest of her Fleetwood Mac catalogue is fine with me.

To be honest, the only one I can come up with right here is "Only over you".

There used to be many that I disliked earlier, like "Oh Daddy", "I wish you were here", "Think about me", "Hold Me" etc... But I've grown to like all of these, although some more than others.

Same here. Great beginning, great energy, great bassline, catchy chorus....love everything about it. The first time I heard it, I felt like I knew it already because I could sing along w/ the chorus so quickly. Sort of sweet how the lyrics tie in to FM also.

On The Dance, after the song ends, doesn't someone yell out, "Do it again!" ??

However I don't really like Only Over You, or Wish You Were Here.

I'm not really sure "I hate" lists apply for me here. I really don't think any of CM's songs provoke that kind of reaction.

I'm not wild about "Wish You Were Here," "Mystified," or a number of bland offerings from the '84 solo record (most of those not written by her), but even when she isn't blowing me away, the atmosphere is pleasant.

Incidentally, I LOVE many of the songs that were listed as least faves: "Only Over You" and "Temporary One" are quite good, I think. And "Sugar Daddy" ranks with the entire band's all-time best moments.

Finally someone who agrees that Sugar Daddy is an awsome song! I LOVE Chris' little laugh and giggle at the end of the song...so cute!

I rarely post in here - don't know why - I love Chris

Anyway I also dislike some of her songs....

Sugar Daddy (blah)
Oh Daddy (blah)
Say You Love Me - I hate the word "woo" don't know why

Those are the only three I really can't stand

LOL...I have always felt the word "woo" is a strange word too! I LOVE "Say You Love Me" But I understand what you mean about the word "woo"....it is a bit odd! lol

I've ALWAYS defended Sugar Daddy! It's one of my favorites. I love the feel of the music. Who cares if the words are a little ..........hokey?
