Since the "Year of the Mac" series is on 1997, I thought we'd do a battle of the songs from The Dance.

Choose two songs for your favorite Christine song.

Poll closes in 4 days. :cool:

I really like what they did with Everywhere and Say You Love Me. Over My Head and Songbird are close 2nds.

Say You Love Me was one of the first things I remember rewatching (and rewatching...) on The Dance video. I still only have the VHS, and the section between Bleed To Love Her and My Little Demon is kind of worn out compared to the rest.

I would've voted for Everywhere or Temporary One if they hadn't done YMLF so perfectly. :nod:

I chose Temporary One because it was new and I love it, and Say You Love Me because I love the arrangement. Of course, Songbird is never less than stellar...

I can make my best friend weep everytime I play Songbird from this DVD. The look on Christine's face really kind of does say "goodbye". It's very elegant.

the awesome reworking of Everywhere. I love the studio version and all it's dramatic, dreamscape qualities, but The Dance version is just so differently spunky & uplifting. Really love what Lindsey did with the guitar riff :nod:

I also love what he did with the guitar riff! BUT, (sacrilege) I never really cared much for the Tango version. I like it, but it was never a favorite of mine.

SYLM, but since Over My Head didn't make the tour, I am going to vote for it as long as I can.

I never knew that Everywhere from the Dance is so well loved. I'm glad at least 2 TITN songs where done, but I would have preferred "Little Lies." :)

When I first heard the record, it was my favourite song :nod:

I really love this version of Everywhere and yes, Say You Love Me is a close second. What about Temporary One though? I think it's pretty great!

I love Temporary One especially those lyrics. Kinda sad though since its Christine's last Fleetwood Mac song.

I voted "Everywhere" for most improved (surely the definitive version of that song). And "Say You Love Me" because of John's vocals!

Know what? I'm a singalong kind of guy....so in general, if I CAN'T hit the notes, the song probably won't be a favorite of mine. And I could never hit the "Oh IIIIIIIII" in anything other than falsetto, so there you have it!

I DO think the guitar part on The Dance, makes it MUCH more interesting.

EVERYWHERE! :D

Was my favourite Christine song then, & it's my favourite Christine song now!!

And The Dance version is so amazing. And might I add, the drums are absolutely delicious on this track. Kudos to Micky.

I gotta go with my fav Say You Love Me for one vote. The epic rendition of Don't Stop gets my second vote. :cool:

Yes I never liked Dont Stop til I heard the Dance version. The marching band/parade atmosphere really works. Love watching this on the dvd.

I like watching it on the DVD too. I like Christine saying they've never done it that way before. I like it at the end when they leave their instruments and walk away.

That DVD was killer. I wish I had been on a Fleetwood Mac bulletin board at the time. Michele

Everywhere and Say You Love Me win this poll. They will go against the winners of Lindsey and Stevie's polls, along with "The Chain." :cool:
