The first single...Rocker or Ballad?
I think the MAC should release a rocker as the first single. The Dance proved to a lot of new fans (and old ones) that this band rocks. I also think it should be a Lindsey song with Stevie very much on the track. Like Rumours and Tango the second single can be a Stevie track.

I would like it to be a rocker,Perhaps" Come ", or "Thrown Down". I can see Thrown Down being a rockin" song with Lindsey's input.Can't hardly contain myself waiting for this new album.

Don't get me wrong..i'm not saying there's anything wrong with the typical "Mac sound"...I love it..(obviously LOL!!)...but IF Fleetwood Mac are after commercial (as well as critical) success, then this song has to be there....just imagine the video that would go with it...it would be absolutely awesome. In my opinion, if it's released this one song has the potential (if it's worked on properly and properly marketed) to make both itself and the album go to #1 on both sides of the Atlantic. (If I pick up the CD and it's not on the tracklist I'm gonna feel like I've been hit in the gut with a baseball bat ) |

Dar, BLY, seteca and tuigirl, you guys are right on!
FM needs to show that they can be hotties at fifty something, still look and sound great, play circles around anybody, and yes, sing about SEX with the best of them! They've been doing it for years, anyway, esp. LB. HA! Take that, you little plastic-boobied LET IT "COME" !!! I really hope it is at least ON the doggone CD! I will be so disappointed if it isn't. I WANNA ROCK!

well..
it doesn't really matter what they release if radio doesn't add it to the playlists.
I would love a 'rock' track, but I'm not for sure if rock radio would play it. The two singles from "The Dance" (Silver Springs and Landslide) were only played on the adult contemporary radio here in D.C. So how do we classify Fleetwood Mac? Rock?? Pop?? Adult Contemporary?? In this day of specific genre radio, I think it's a long shot for the Mac to have a hit single. I think they need to release something so NOT Fleetwood Mac of the past, that people would sit up and take notice. It needs to sound fresh, contemporary, and rock. Release a killer video to go along with the new single and they might just have a chance. I just hope we don't get an "Everyday" type release... sorry Stevie. |

The first single should be a rocker. Whether it is a Stevie song or a Lindsey song doesn't matter to me. Any new Mac music is great anyway!!!

I don't imagine radio playlist classification will be a big obstacle if the album ends up including the likes of Come & Gift of Screws (edgy new hard rock), Thrown Down (what an instant classic), Down On Rodeo (U2-ish?). I think, like Rumours, this baby will have a good handle on the popular avenues, albeit a number of them, in this 'age of ad nauseum categories'.
'Come' would surely be some commerical success - even just that volume blowout is such a hook in itself. |

Take no prisoners
I say kick ass and take no prisoners. It's time all the bland, homogenous packaged pop stars got their butts properly kicked.
COME This song will tell the world there's still room for a good hard rock n' roll, and I know just the band to pull it off. |

That's easy...
I would say a rocker just to prove that they CAN STILL ROCK...'Nuff said, Brian

I don't know... I think "Come" would alienate a lot of long-time fans. I'd much prefer "Thrown Down" or one of Lindsey's poppier tracks, like "Twist of Fate," "Steal Your Heart Away" (GORGEOUS!) or "Shuffle Riff."
So I guess that's my answer--they should make it neither a hard-core rocker nor a too-soft ballad. Something in-between, but upbeat. |
