Now it's on to Round 5. It's getting tougher to vote anything off now. Side 1 of the album is still here. Here's what's left:

Emerald Eyes
Believe Me
Just Crazy Love
Hypnotized
Forever
Keep On Going
Miles Away
Why

Default Round & Round #5: "Keep On Going".

Arguments like "you can't vote off 'Keep On Going' because Christine sounds great on it" are invalid to me (yes Mari and David, it's you I'm talking to). There is no Christine-sung Fleetwood Mac song that she doesn't sound great on.

Educate the doofus, how?

And the quintessence of Fleetwood Mac is that another McVie singing on "Cool Water", not "Keep On Going".

If every song with Christine singing on it sounds great, THEN SO DOES THIS ONE. You can't argue that this song is ****e, then.

But then you can't argue that it's what makes the song great then, because they all are great vocal-wise. Then you have to look at other qualities, such as the songwriting.
And I never said anything on this album is ****e. There's stuff I like a lot, and stuff I like less than those others.

Default almost forgot to vote.. um.. Forever.

Songwriting's good to me too. So is the production.
This happens to be one of my favorite 'singalong'songs on MTM.. and her singing is exceptional imnsho. It's not an easy song to sing.
There.

I knew it! It's all a matter of perverted technical preferences, and you getting a kick out of singing something 'so difficult'!

Of course. I am so good.

(I didn't say what I make of singing that song, actually. I sound crap, I bet )

Perverted? Hmmm... I still haven't made it to the honorlist of immoral ledgies though..

Now now, what did I say of being a negative Nelly.

Anyway, time to stop the chatter on my part and make the vote counting easier for Mary Anne.

Tell me about it! I used to be REALLY immoral. Then, I grew up, dammit. If I told them some history, I'll bet they'd put me on the list.
Probably not though.
At least I had a thread with my name.
