Well Ledgies we are approaching the end of Round 1 of the definitive Christine contest. Currently 21 songs officially move on in the contest. We have two polls active for the Behind the Mask era and Time. I'll post the last polls for In the Meantime Friday and Saturday.

Since we most likely will end Round 1 with around 28 songs, I'm considering another poll(s) using the songs that got at least 40% votes. With two polls currently open, here are the songs that got 40%.....Tango didn't have any 40% songs and Behind the Mask, Time, and In the Meantime don't count yet.

Crazy 'Bout You Baby - 46%
Did You Ever Love Me - 43%
World Turning - 44%
Love in Store - 48%
Wish You Were Here - 48%
The Challenge - 42%
One in a Million - 42%
The Smile I Live For - 46%
Save Me - 45%
Come Out to Play - 47%

So perhaps two "extra" polls for these songs? Or just go with what we've been doing? Remember the idea is to arrive at a CD's worth of songs, i.e. Christine's definitve 18 songs.

Let me know what you guys think!

I vote two extra polls... why? they are fun.. also, we get to save some great tunes that were eliminated...

applebucked · #37 08-29-2013, 09:38 PM

I agree with two polls too. Those are some great tunes up there.

MacShadowsBall · #38 09-02-2013, 02:28 PM

Thanks, jbrownsjr and applebucked. I think I'll just do one poll with the top 10 runners-up instead of two polls.

Check post #33 for the 25 songs confirmed to move forward in the "Just Perfect: The Christine McVie Collection" contest.

Well as shock to me and others, no songs meet the 50% requirement for Christine's underachievers poll. Heck only one song got past 40%, Did You Ever Love Me.

See the post above for the breakdown of the seven polls for Round 2, which starts tomorrow with Christine's Pre-Fleetwood Mac songs.
