What's your favorite/least favorite hit?

[blinker12]

OK, of Mac's Top 40-charting singles, which is your favorite and which is your least favorite? Try to limit yourself to one each!

My favorite: Sara
Least favorite: Don't Stop

For the record, here are the band's Top 40 songs:

Over My Head
Rhiannon
Say You Love Me
Go Your Own Way
Dreams
Don't Stop
You Make Loving Fun
Tusk
Sara
Think About Me
Hold Me
Gypsy
Love in Store
Big Love
Seven Wonders
Everywhere
Little Lies
Save Me

[Hawkeye]

Favorite: Rhiannon

Least Favorite: Hold Me

[GypsySorcerer]

Hmmm.

Favorite: Go Your Own Way
Least Favorite: You Make Lovin' Fun (though I do like the Bonus disc version)

[Sorcerer386]

Favorite: Gypsy
Least Favorite: Over My Head

Not to get picky either, but wasn't Hard Feelings a top 40 hit? I thought it hit #33. Either way, it doesn't matter, although it'd probably be the song to fall under my least favorite.

[ontheEdgeof17]

FAV: Ugh....I like them all but I will go with Save Me It doesn't get the credit it deserves.

LEAST FAV: Rhiannon The recorded version just doesn't do it for me with all those awesome live versions out there.


-Curt

[SoundBoyBrad]

Favorite: "Gypsy"
Least Favorite: "Dreams"

Now, of course, that all depends on whether you mean our favorite/least favorite when they were released or as of now...;)

[GypsySorcerer]

That's because Little Lies is much more radio-friendly and pleasant to listen to. ;) :wavey:

[Cristian]

My favorite has to be either "You Make Loving Fun" or "Dreams", from that little album, what's-its-name. :rolleyes:

My least favorite, just because it's been overplayed to death, it's "Everywhere".

[Wild_Heart03]

Favorite: "Gypsy"
Least Favorite: "Big Love"

[markolas]

LEAST FAV: Rhiannon The recorded version just doesn't do it for me with all those awesome live versions out there.


-Curt

Yes! I, too, dislike the studio version of Rhiannon.

I think my favorite is either Gypsy or Sara.

[Mageboy25]

Funny I I was on hold with the fcking damn phone company the other day. I heard Think About Me played all the way through while I waited for 20 damn mins. How random huh???

[rezamatic]

FAVORITE: "Tusk" (although I don't think it should have been released as a single)

LEAST FAVORITE: "Love in Store"

[cliffdweller]

Favorite: "Dreams"

Least Favorite: Tie between "Little Lies" and "Everywhere" sucks to both!! Sorry Chris!

[cliffdweller]

Least Favorite: Hold Me and Seven Wonders


:eek: I love both of these!

[Lala]

FAVORITE: "Tusk" (although I don't think it should have been released as a single)

LEAST FAVORITE: "Love in Store"

I still find it hard to believe that it was...I mean it's sooooooo not radio friendly. You'd think if they could handle releasing Tusk as a single they could release something a little more adventurous from SYW.

[Gazza]

Surely the least favourite should always be something like Hold Me or Love In Store? Or are people just forgeting those?

Favourite: Go Your Own Way
Least favourite: Love In Store

[dissention]

I can't stand Hold Me. I think it's dreadful. ;)

[amber]

That's because Little Lies is much more radio-friendly and pleasant to listen to. ;) :wavey:
or because people have bad taste... :laugh:

[Lala]

I can't stand Hold Me. I think it's dreadful. ;)

Why don't people like this song? It's gotta be one of my fav Christine songs. My favorite part is the musical bridge with the guitar thingy.

[chiffon head]

Most fav.~dreams (classic)
Least fav~don't stop (clinton)

[littlelies7]

Favorite: LL
Least Favorite: Dreams (it never got to me.. :shrug: )

[The Tower]

In terms of the song's being top 40 hits....

Favorite: (tie) "You Make Loving Fun" and "Dreams"

Both are sublime masterpieces of great, great songwriting.

Worst: "Little Lies" (with the abysmal "Everywhere" running an extremely close second)

What a crappy, poppy, clump o' turd!

[Nicks Fan]

Favorite- Seven Wonders : I have always loved this song. Don't ask me why but I can listen to tit over and over and I still love it.

Least Favorite- Rhiannon: The song kicks ass live but both Rhiannon and Landslide suck in their original studio recorded versions.

[cliffdweller]

Blaspheme!! :distress:

Both recordings are sublime.

Fav: Tie Gypsy and Rhiannon (and yes I do love Rhiannon live, but I love any form of that song)

Least Fav: Hold Me (annoys me to no end) and Big Love (hate the TITN version of this song, love The Dance version)

[macmar71]

Favorite: Hold Me/Seven Wonders


Least Favorite: Don't Stop/Dreams

Dissention doesn't! :laugh:

[jbrownsjr]

and i love every minute of it! :laugh:

[chiliD]

:thumbsup: = GYOW, YMLF, Tusk, Think About Me, Albatross (it was #1 in the UK, close enough for me!)

:shocked: = Sara, Dreams, Seven Wonders

[Hawkeye]

:thumbsup: = GYOW, YMLF, Tusk, Think About Me, Albatross (it was #1 in the UK, close enough for me!)

:shocked: = Sara, Dreams, Seven Wonders

I'm suprised you didn't mention Rhiannon and STUNNED you didn't mention Oh Well.

[Johnny Stew]

Favorite(s): Gypsy & Little Lies ("Gypsy" is one of the finest songs FM ever recorded, IMO, so it's therefore one of my favorite singles, and I feel that "Little Lies" may very well be the absolute best encapsulation of FM in single-form)

Least Favorite(s): Sisters Of The Moon & Hard Feelings (Both are good songs, but both were weak as single material, IMO)

[DeadliestPoison]

Favorite: Rhiannon
Least Favorite: Sara ;) or Gypsy or YMLF. But Sara most of all. :wavey:

[Gypsy3]

Favorite: "Gypsy"
Least Favorite: "Think About Me"

I agree. :thumbsup:

[Villavic]

My favorite: Gypsy, an Seven Wonders
Least favorite: Don't Stop

I never liked Save me. I loved As long as you follows (didn't reach the top 40?)

Of course I loved Sara and other songs more than SW, but I loved and knew it after they became hits. I wasn't a mac fan by that time. So I choose songs from when I already was a fan

[~nightbird~]

Favorite--Albatross
Least Favorite--Seven Wonders

Speaking on Top 40 FM songs, does anyone know if The Chain was released as a single and if it was, did it appear on the US or UK charts?

[wondergirl9847]

Least favorite: Over My Head (eh.)

[Claudia]

Favorite - Rhiannon and Over My Head (only recently started to like this one, but now it's one of my favourites)

Least Favorite - Think About Me

The Chain was never released as a single for the US or UK. I think it is the perfect single, but it gets radio airplay once in awhile anyway, without being official.

I heard this song on my lunch break today on Arrow 93.1 Los Angeles

-Curtis

Thanks Curtis (and Amber) for the info. The Chain is probably my fav FM song of all and when I didn't see it on the list, it got me thinking. The Chain was/is a perfect radio rock song...it should have been released but in any case like you said it STILL gets airplay and that makes me happy!

[dontlookdown]

Favorite: Dreams (Sara is a close runner up)
I think these are easily Stevie's greatest accomplishments.

Least Favorite: Don't Stop
The only Fleetwood Mac song I've never liked.
But - hey it helped get the band back together courtesy of our last great president.

[redbird]

Someone asked about "As Long As You Follow" - it hit #43 on the US charts and lower on the UK charts. Just missed the top 40.


Favorite: "Go Your Own Way"
Least Favorite: "Hold Me"

I'm the most impressed by "Tusk" charting where it did. I adore that song and it's such a strange radio hit. I'm sure following Rumors helped though, I'm somewhat surprised by "Sara" hitting the top ten too.

"Everywhere" drives me nuts but I'm convinced that there's a good song under the production.

[FierySequences]
