View Full Version : At This Point, What Song Should The Shows Close With? (*POSSIBLE SPOILERS*)

IMO Don't Stop should be one of the songs to be dropped. I didn't hate it on the earlier legs, but there are better songs to use. IMO Stevie & Lindsey should stick to their own songs rather than Christine's at this point. I'd love for them to close with Frozen Love, Seven Wonders, Crystal, or SOTM.

What do you think would fit as the last song on this leg?

I think that keeping Don't Stop in there is a smart move, and not just because it gets everyone clapping and dancing to the shuffle with big smiles on their faces... But because so much of the audience became fans from Christine's songs, I think that they owe it to the fans to at least play one.
Seven Wonders, I wish! They did a great job with it on the TITN tour.
Frozen Love and Crystal would be great... for us crazy fans.

Well the shows don't close with Don't Stop, they close with Goodbye Baby. I think Storms would be a good replacement for Goodbye Baby though.

I'm all for honoring Chris, just with a different song and a different place in the set. JMO. But you're right, much of the crowd does enjoy the song.

If I'm not mistaken, GB was dropped on this leg.

I thought they closed out their show with GYOW and GB, and I love Don't Stop, too bad Christine doesn't realize the legacy she should remain apart of, but anyhow it is a Fleetwood Mac song, not just a Christine McVie song.

If I'm not mistaken, GB was dropped on this leg.

I believe it was only dropped from the first couple of shows, and then returned.
In fact, I think it returned when "Destiny Rules" disappeared.

Personally, I like that Lindsey & Stevie are doing "Don't Stop." It's hard for me to imagine anyone else singing Christine's songs... although I know it's always been a part of Fleetwood Mac's history to continue performing songs by former members. But I think that, of all of Chris' tunes, "Don't Stop" is about the only one that someone else can get away with singing. And maybe it's because Lindsey was already singing the co-lead on it.
Same with "World Turning."

Stevie wrote "World Turning" not Chris, she was just one of the lead in vocals. I never really cared about Christine's songs, at least not to the point I was disappointed with Fleetwood Mac, I saw Fleetwood Mac minus the line up of Stevie, Lindsey, and Christine, with only Mick and John the founding members, and I still felt the magic of those songs, I guess it just all comes down to the roots of a band, and the passion of the music.

I always think "Don't Stop" will be lame going into a concert, and granted there are many other songs I'd like to hear, but I admit that "Don't Stop" is fun once it gets started. It's a great sing-a-long song.

Let's see...I would love to see them end with "Crystal" or "Storms." I like GB well enough, though.

I like the fact that Don't Stop is played minus Christine... they do a fine job of it. And I think the tempo of ending on a sombre note with Goodbye Baby is good too... I'd like to see them shuffle GB into the set where Landslide is and end the show with Landslide... They could still do the dedication to the audience or whom ever... and still do the little hug and stand there and take the applause... Then Mick and John could come walking out... stand beside the two of them... Take their bows and Mick could say his speach... I think that would be pretty great.

It started out as a jam inspired by Peter Green's song "The World Keep On Turning." :)

Crystal. I'd die if they played that song. I must admit, even though we have a pretty much set-in-stone setlist, Fleetwood Mac has done a great job of playing (some of) the songs that the die-hards really wanted to hear ~ Eyes Of The World, Beautiful Child, Sara, I Know I'm Not Wrong, Don't Let Me Down Again, plus the SYW songs like Destiny Rules, Red Rover, etc... Having said that, I wouldn't count out anything from now on with the Mac :nod: . So I still have hope for Crystal!

Crystal. They should alternate between each other when singing the verses, then sing the chorus together in harmony. I'd have heart palpitations.

Agreed, but IMO so are a lot of other songs they might do. I still say if they need to change a song, it's DS (though I know others would prefer Dreams or Rhiannon).

Thanks for the update. I haven't read the reviews/setlists since early in this leg.
I think there are other Chris songs that would work, and whether changed or not, I'd sooner see a Chris song not used at the end. JMO.

I think Storms would be amazing, but not at the end. It's just too heavy. Stevie has said that she does not like to leave the audience on a sad note, but the lyric "Not all the prayers in the world could save us" might do just that.

If you mean that their performances of these songs have been good, I agree (for the ones I've seen).

But I'm with you on bringing Crystal into the set.

I don't think Crystal would be great as a live-song. LB doesn't sing that .. what's the word? with attention, with details? .. live. I love Crystal on the white album, because he sings it sooo softly. He never sings like that live.

I'd love it if they did another BN song! Lola is my favorite, but not as a closer. More pre-1975 Macsongs would be great too!

rezamatic
05-30-2004, 10:07 AM
I was thinking that if they let Lindsey take the closing song, that he could do an acoustic version of "Steal Your Heart Away". But he should do it in the style of "Soul Drifter" when he toured solo - just himself, a shortened, slow version of it. It's quite sad-sounding like "GB" is now, but also a little more uplifiting. I always thought that would make a great closer.

GypsySorcerer

"Stephanie" would be a nice closer, too.... I love this song. Of course, they already play the recording of "Albatross" as people are leaving. I still maintain that they should use "Songbird" instead.

Can you imagine what Stevie's & Lindsey's golden voices could do with a great tune like that?! I get shudders just thinking about it.

I think Songbird as a two part harmony would be good, provided Lindsey and Stevie could hit all the notes as we know them. If it worked, it would be much better than Don't Stop.

Speaking of closers, I had a question for the veteran Mac fans...

When did "Farmer's Daughter" become the closer for their show? (I assumed the Tusk tour.) Has that always been their closer since then, or did they just revive it for the Dance tour?

I remember becoming a fan during The Dance and then heard it on the Live 1980 album, and figured it was always their closer, aside from Songbird. It's an interesting choice, because I thought that it was never released, hence no one would know it and that'd be a weak point to end a show with. But, I think it's the perfect song because it features everyone in the band together in a soft moment.

One thing I really dig about them is their traditions with their shows (Chain-Dreams opener, Songbird closer) but I agree. I would have loved to have seen the rehearsal opening with Eyes of the World. The crowd would have know idea what it was and suddenly it explodes into the song and they go crazy. But then again, I just don't see Chain fitting in anywhere except opening or closing the show, it just wouldn't work in the middle of the set in my opinion.

Get rid of The Chain altogether. Not only is it stale, but the "chain" is not together. It was a special song when it was all five of them, all five writers. Now? There's a link missing from the chain and it don't work like it used to.

Heheh this is a debate which should go into its own thread, but I've always felt that The Chain refers to the music, not the band. This is why it can be played through any Fleetwood Mac unit. I felt odd listening to Lindsey playing it on his solo tour - but then thought about it and realized that he brought his own interpretation, just like they did with the Tango tour, adjusting for new/lost members. I just think that The Chain's come to represent the music period of F-Mac, not necessarily the Rumours line-up/chain sticking together.

No way, I say keep The Chain. It's an anthem.
In fact, I'd love for Stevie to sing Fireflies & dedicate it to Chris.

Heheh this is a debate which should go into its own thread, but I've always felt that The Chain refers to the music, not the band. This is why it can be played through any Fleetwood Mac unit. I felt odd listening to Lindsey playing it on his solo tour - but then thought about it and realized that he brought his own interpretation, just like they did with the Tango tour, adjusting for new/lost members. I just think that The Chain's come to represent the music period of F-Mac, not necessarily the Rumours line-up/chain sticking together.

Interesting.
I think the song is about the five fireflies, but it's fine for any of them to play it in the absence of another as a sort of tribute to their bond.

I'd love it in the set, but I don't see it as a closer, lyrically or musically.

I suggested Seven Wonders earlier. I think it's a great choice.

I think they should have two ending songs. Second to the last song should be a new, slow song----I would pick "Destiny Rules." The very last song should be an older, upbeat song like "Blue Letter," "I Don't Want to Know," or "The Ledge." That would be so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :nod: :thumbsup: :D

Haven't you seen the commercials? You spray it on and then use this plastic squegee instead of a razor. Looks like some really nasty funk.

I'd love Blue Letter or The Ledge in the set (much less so Destiny Rules), but I'd prefer that they end with a song that's more lyrically geared to be a closer.

So they don't take suggestions from this board? Then why are we debating over this when it's not our choice AT ALL :distress: But I still think "Fireflies" would be a good next to the last song or something, or how about "Empire State" :shrug:

Or how about something from behind the mask? What were the singles that came off of that one? How about "Freedom" .."Look at me with daggars, It won't
do you any good" "All the spells you put on me, Are gone now that you've fallen"

:woohoo:

Lindsey doesn't look kindly on that album, and Stevie has never exactly shown a great love for it herself.
