Buckingham/ McVie Law and Order In the Meantime Tango in the Night ( outtakes and B sides) What did you rock to? |

I was only a 15 minute walk for me, so nothing... but my show was 14 days after the release, so I listened to NOTHING but it for 14 days. I wanted to know every song, back to front!
I figure that was about 50 complete plays. And I'm still playing it twice a day. I love it! So much better than SYW! It's happy!

Overall I agree.
Without trying to start another Stevie bashing thread, I think she was the problem with SYW. Slow and tired. And then tops it off with complaint after complaint about how bad she had it during that time. Christine and Lindsey seem to be having a good time. And that makes it a more enjoyable listen. I think their next album will be even better. |

IMO the reason why that album is a bit exhausting is because it's almost all Stevie-style drama. You need a break once in a while, but Stevie doesn't do happy songs. Most of her stuff is angst-y or dark. What are her happy ones? We'll say If I Were You, Talk to Me, Rooms on Fire... not many and not necessarily the ones that hold up great. Lindsey seems to feed off of that, I mean the original Buckingham Nicks album isn't particularly happy either. BM feels happier because Christine REVELS in stuff that sounds happy. Unfortunately in the same way that SYW can be seen as exhausting, BM can be seen as fluffy. I think we are all in agreement that the three are best when they're together, the balance of angst and light happiness So in all, two totally different albums with two totally different moods. I love both of them though.

Which is why she's(Christine) always been my favorite! FAY might be a diabetic coma, but I'm hooked on it like heroin. Reminds me of Can't Go Back. Complete sugar fix! They are the best with all three. I'd still pick BM over BN, though. That happiness is why Chris had the majority of hits!

Haha FAY sends me into diabetic shock but I like all her bubbly vibes as well. The album really makes me happy because I feel her genuine enthusiasm seeping through. She's not just gritting her teeth anymore and I love that. She's versatile though and I like her darker stuff as well!

I must be one of the only diehards who loves SYW. *blushes* I legitimately consider it one of my all time favorite albums in general (from all artists). But I'm also on the younger end for this forum and I've seen studies and plenty of anecdotes about how the music we listen to in our teens seems to hold a special place for most people so perhaps that's part of it. But I mean I also remember going to a used record store as a teen and squealing over Rumours so... And I still haven't seen most of the documentary about the making of SYW (forgot the name of it... did they call that Destiny Rules?) I own it but was afraid it would ruin some of the magic for me maybe. But yeah, maybe I'm weird. SYW is a permanent fixture in my car to this day though.
Heading out to the Mt. Pleasant, MI show tomorrow evening, have about an hour's drive so probably just listening to BM because I still don't know all the songs very well. Just hoping the rain stays away for thatshow because no cover over the seats and I'm hearing thunderstorms in the forecast so afraid it could end up rescheduled (if they outright cancel in going to cry!) On the way home I might play something I'm more familiar with just to keep me awake because it's a very boring drive (more or less the middle of nowhere, long flat country roads) so maybe Tango or Tusk or uh.... SYW. But I'd be inclined to skip SYW since no Christine. Don't think I played SYW on the way to any of the last FM tour shows for the same reason. |
