I think 'Over and Over' and 'Think About Me' were only done at some shows, whereas Stevie and Lindsey showcased their new stuff.

Did Christine not like her new material?? I thought her 'Brown Eyes' (later done on the 1987 and 1990 tours) and 'Think About Me' were terrific.
She was obviously very proud of Brown Eyes since she did it on Mirage and Tango tours.

I hope you continue to improve, my friend.

Of course after this things would begin to unravel.
Musically, I have to agree! I like the gentleness of it, the way it eases you into the album, in the same way that NMMC leads you out of it. It's just not my fave. If any one of her songs is a weak link, it would be this one, but I think they pull everything together nicely.

Christine doesn't have a bad song on the album IMO.

I enjoy Christine's sleepers(Honey Hi and Never Forget) far more than the old goat's(Beautiful Child and Storms). Christine's are soothing.

Nobody does. It’s a flawless album.

Ok you don't like Oh Daddy because there is no "beat" but like Honey Hi? What about Never Make Me Cry?

I'm sorry, I cant let go of this. I will follow you down till the sound of Oh Daddy will haunt you

Throughout her long career, Christine has never written a bad ballad, all are wonderful and sung from the heart. Come to think of it, she really hasn't written a bad song even though of course, some are better than others. Far too overlooked are her wonderful songs on Time.

I know that you can't let it go, and that's okay(if anyone has a hard time letting things go, it's me, so I understand).

You know, I prefer blonds over brunettes, and both over redheads. Sometimes there's not a valid reason behind someone's taste. It just is what it is.

Ask me how I feel about goat...

Oh Daddy is one of the best Mac songs ever. Iconic. Sorry, I can’t let this go, either....

Think About Me is my all time favorite song. Not Oh Daddy.

Maybe part of it is because I hate the word daddy.

I remember being around 5 years old, and I called my Dad daddy, and he got all over me about how I was never to call him daddy. Yeah, he was an a*shole.

Maybe I hate it for reasons unknown...

Default I've been lurking, first post in a while

Over and Over in any version is always good. Unlike a lot of you...I've never been much of a Brown Eyes fan. I was hoping Over and Over might make it into a set but the US tour didn't even get Think About Me until the Classic E/W shows. Bit of a let down for me I'd agree with the person that said Never Forget could make a good encore. Something tells me we heard the last Songbird once that reunion tour was over.

I don't think she's able to play it anymore, and that would be a tough one to do with tracks.

Yes I agree. Can’t stand the old goat now but her songs are flawless. Love Lindsay songs as well the only one I don’t like of his is That’s enough for me just because of the screaming.
