Oh Diane. This song was just a waste of space on Mirage.

I honestly love Liddy B but I am having a hard time choosing because there are so many that being said, his best work was Fleetwood Mac - Tusk. His work went downhill after that with the Mac. Out of the Cradle was amazing to me so that break from the Mac did him good.

Oh Diane
That's enough for me (because of the yeah yeahs)

I actually love the weird harmonies on Empire state and think the song is pretty cool.

Empire State.

Family Man and Caroline have lazy lyrics, but they're ok musically.

right. almost 2 minutes!!

it's a great punkish song, and i love almost every single very different version of it. on the record and live.

it's definitely not worst song lol, far from it, but i understand why some FM fans don't like it.

my apologies - 2.5 mins (not 2 so need to correct myself!) the whole 2013 tour



1980 was 35 years ago.

Oh Diane is still cringeworthy to me (Yuck) Goodbye Angel is SO superior, and would have made "Mirage" much better!

Caroline & Family Man! No way to get around those lyrics which flat out suck. Not even the glossy music production & enjoyable guitar flourishes can save these.

Time Precious Time. Why it's on a Mac EP I have no idea. It's a solo tune.
