This is such a great collection of songs indeed.

I hope Don't Stop gets above 50%. It deserves to move forward, It was Christine's highest charting Mac single! Come on people!!

I guess it's so overplayed. But I agree, it can't be left out..

I'm holding off on voting for this one to see how the songs are doing. It's interesting that "Don't Stop" is currently not doing well, when it is probably her most recognizable song (to the general public at large). I don't personally think it's her best song, but I don't have anything against it. Could some of you who have already voted comment on why you chose NOT to vote for "Don't Stop"?

I figured I would just let Don't Stop and YMLF fend for themselves. They're strong. They don't need me.

I used to be so bored of "Don't Stop" but in the last year or so I've come to like, maybe even love it. It really is quite the optimistic song and fun to belt aloud. So I put it at 50%, let's see if it stays that way

"Say You Love Me" and "You Make Loving Fun" get my other votes, never skip them.

I'm glad you did... It's a huge hit for her.. much like Dreams is to Stevie.

it's a huge hit for Fleetwood Mac, not just her. maybe the biggest they ever had, with the Clinton thing. it's bigger than FM. when he heard them playing it during encores, my teenager asked "how come they covered it?"

Oh my goodness. Can we vote to take away points from a song? I would sabotage Don't Stop. I would minus it out of existence.

Not to say that we aren't going to get the thrill of a lifetime next week when we hear it, but spare me a little.

And I won't be voting for you either, Little Lies, so don't even think about it.

The way the percentage thing works, when you don't vote for a song you lower the percentage for that song. So when you didn't vote for Don't Stop you lowered the percentage for that song.

Right now Don't Stop stands at 50% with 10 out of 20 Ledgies voting for it. The next Ledgie who votes will either change Don't Stop to 52% or 48%.

I'm curious about Over My Head only at 55%. It was the "new" Mac's first hit song. I suppose every song could be validated in one way or another, but we're here to find the definitive 18 songs.
