Who has the best songs on each FM album?

diamondsnake · #1 01-12-2004, 04:12 PM

Which member contributes the best songs on each album, in your opinion?

Here are my thoughts:

White Album- Christine McVie (Over My Head is what really makes me pick her on this album)

Rumours- Stevie Nicks (Dreams. Enough Said)

Tusk- Christine McVie (She is completely underrated on this album, but I love her mellow songs on this record)

Mirage- Lindsey Buckingham (I love his songs on Mirage, what is the deal with everyone saying his songs are bad on this album?)

Tango- Lindsey Buckingham/Christine McVie (A tie.

The Dance- Christine McVie/Stevie Nicks (a tie, I just can't decide!)

Say You Will- Stevie Nicks (The title track and Illume are just too good!)

White Album- Stevie hands down

Rumours- Stevie Nicks (tough one and kudos to LB's GYOW and CM's YMLF is just brilliant)

Tusk- LB (just so out there

) honorable mention to Sara

Mirage- Stevie - hands down with Gypsy - honorable mention to Hold Me.

Tango- Lindsey Buckingham (TITN song is brilliant) Honorable mention to CM for LL and Everywhere

The Dance - Stevie Nicks (SS with that voice and those looks - SHEEBUS!!!) Honorable mention to LB for BTLH

Say You Will - LB (very tough but for me Stevie's use of her lower register made some her songs (Illume and SYW) less compelling to me - even though I still like them very very much and consider the writing stellar).

if we're including BTM then its Christine, but only just as stevie is almost as good. rick and billy on the other hand, make me cringe.

and i forgot about Live, which is stevie without a doubt, as carne pointed out, purely on the strength of Rhiannon and Fireflies.

One question...have you LISTENED to Stevie's tunes on BTM?

Ok, make that two...WTF is wrong with Billy & Rick?
