I bought the Big Love single and it had You and I Part 1 on the B side. And I used to listen to it and look at the album cover. And I was a kid, so my imagination of Lindsey and Christine ran wild. I guess I'm still a kid.

You've got me thinking about 'Under strange fockin' skies...' again now.
I swear that's what he says.

Haha!! that's so funny... I can ONLY hear it that way now.

Side note: When they came out during the Greek Show last August, they were holding hands and waving to the crowd like the King and Queen. And I got a little choked up because I've been following them for so long.

My ex said to me, "Christine and Lindsey are your parents. Or, at least you want them to be."

Mystified is pure cheese but I can't pretend that I don't enjoy it.

I'm with Frankenstein... pure cheese but still enjoyable. From the reviews of Tango I remember reading, it was considered Christine's weakest song on the album and filler, but when compared to When I See You Again or Family Man, it's artistic genius!

I don't agree about the cheese part (maybe the lyrics a bit) at all. Is it a slow mellow song that's not everybody's cup of tea? I can see that. But I think it's so beautifully recorded.

I agree. It glistens on my speakers.

There is another horrible element to this song. Even if I think about it only for one second, I'll have it in my head for the rest of the day. It's such an earworm, damn!
Thank you, thread! Grrrrrrr!

I'll never tell. But what I will say is this. "oh oh oh pretty Homer, this feeling is deep inside."
