Default You And I. But Which Part?

Something has always bugged me about one of my favourite Fleetwood Mac albums. The sheer fact that Part 1 of You And I never made it onto the original lineup defies all logic to me. But is it just me being picky? Or is it just a bit superior to Part 2 in quality and mood?

Which is your favourite?

Can't choose. Part 1 does fit the mood of the album better then 2......but hell I love part 2. Hard choice. I made my own Tango with both parts on

Part 1 all the way. It's weird though, Part 2 actually sounds like it should be part 1, & vice versa.

Default Lovely songs, both...

Well, like bluefox4000 said, it's hard to choose. But I prefer Part I. Maybe because is rare, unusual, for its sound, the "game" with the voices...I can't explain, is just Wonderful!!! I heard first the Part II, and after this, I looked for Part I, and when I heard it...wow, just amazing! I always listen them together!
So, for me, Part I. Regards!

They are both nice songs. I went with Part 1 because I like the beat of the song better.

Love 'em both equally so I had to flip a coin - Part 2 won.

I think I prefer Part 1, but I'm not overly keen on either of them anyway.

It would have been awesome if Part 1 opened Tango and Part 2 closed it.

well i think You and I Part I is so clearly Buck-solo sounding while Part 2 is such a pure collab between himself and Christine. Also, it has a particularly perfect "ending" quality for the album. SO, I would choose Part 2 for being on the album (if I have to choose and if it has to be a two-sided rather than four-sided album .

As for which song I actually prefer, hmm.....

That's how i have it on my Tango. Works wonderfully. Part 1 segues nicely into Big love

Someone on here once said the original plan was to only include two Stevie songs on Tango but WB intervened and demanded two. If that's true, I'll bet You and I Part I originally had a place on the album.

I like Part II way better--though I prefer Christine's vocal on it, which is more organic, less "produced" than Lindsey's.

Part II is an atrocity compared to Part I. Part I is enough reason why TITN should be re-released like The White Album, Rumours and Tusk were.
