You should keep "Keep On Going" and "Forever."

I've had more than one person tell me that 'Hypnotized' is the first pre-Rumours song they ever heard (in the U.S.). I think it brings out the best in Bob's mystic lyrics.
I've seen people complain about 'Forever', but I like it. It's a calming song. I've heard it and Hypnotized on XM/Sirius radio. 'Emerald Eyes' is another great song. 'For Your Love' is okay, but I'd have preferred an original song. 'Keep On Going' is fine....I think of it more as a Christine song, considering the vocal. I really don't feel either way about 'The City',''Somebody', or 'Miles Away'. They are okay songs.

My favorite Bob Songs on here are Hypnotized, Emerald Eyes, Miles Away, and Keep on Going. The last song in this lot is very good but holds most of my interest because of Christine's amazing vocal on it. I wish she'd sang a few more of his songs, or at least harmonized on more of them more prominently--you can barely hear her on the album version of Bermuda Triangle. Emerald Eyes works so well because of the harmonizing on the chorus.

Keep on Going and Forever - count as Welch
I know "For Your Love" is a cover, but who sung it here Christine or Welch? |

Yep, Welch sang "For Your Love", but the idea/suggestion to do the song, plus the arrangement of the song was by Bob Weston.
