Destiny Rules sounds cheesy as hell, IMO, just as cheesy as Say You Will.

Come is short and sweet (shut up, you wise asses) and sounds less flakey.

The album is named, so it really doesn't matter much.
But 'Come' sounds too pedestrian when taken in one context, and too crass when taken in the other context.

One can find crassness everywhere they turn, and, as I said, Fleetwood Mac is not some cocky, let's-get-laid heavy metal band. They can do better than an album titled 'Come,' in my opinion.

:laugh: Ugh.

Is it any more "cheesy" than Mirage, The Wild Heart, etc.? Just wondering how you feel about those titles. :shrug:

Come as a title would better represent the album than Destiny Rules. Destiny Rules sounds like it could be the name of a cheesy, early-nineties pop album by Belinda Carlisle. :sorry:

However, I highly doubt that upon first hearing of the title, people would think of it in a crass way. It's Fleetwood Mac, for cripes sake.

No, I think those titles represent their respective albums well, whereas Say You Will does not. It's too sunny for such a dark album.

Also, I think Illume would have been a great title for the album. :nod:

That was going to be my choice.....even though I despise the song. :laugh:

Well, let's just thank our lucky stars they didn't name it 'From A Distance.' :laugh: :p

"Destiny Rules" would make a statement... "Come" is just a lonely verb, without anything to qualify it.
'Mirage' and 'Rumours' were effective because they're nouns... not just because they were "short and sweet" titles.

There is absolutely no way you can use "Come" as a stand-alone word, and not have people's minds automatically go to the gutter.

Heck, even 70 year old grandmothers reading trashy romance novels, know what "come" stands for!

Although with that title, FM might have sold an additional 200 albums to horny 15 year old boys. :) :laugh:

Now on that one we can both agree. :)

Now that you mention it, "Illume" is WAY better than "Destiny Rules" as a title. For sure.

But "Destiny Rules" is still a better and more fitting title than "Come," in my opinion. :)

I was referring to your hatred of Destiny Rules as a title, not SYW.:)

Illume is a beautiful word, but I can see it more as a Stevie solo album title than FM. I thought I liked it as a title for a second, but I actually kinda think that one is cheesy...sounds like an Enya album or something. :sorry: :)

Fleetwood Mac: Smells of Nag ChampRa


It could work. :nod:

:laugh: :lol: Oh, lord! I was about 8 when that album came out and I played it to death. I've been pro-peace since birth, and I remember thinking "hell yeah" with the title song. What was I thinking?!







:laugh: :laugh: Now that's a good point! I know a lot of you like Come for a title, but can you truly get into it?! A commercial: "The latest release from Fleetwood Mac is Come". Or in print in your Target flyer:

Onsale 4-15-03
Fleetwood Mac
Come

:shrug: :woohoo:

I think any of the songs would have been appropriate but I would've been scared if it Say Goodbye or Goodbye Baby :laugh: :laugh:

And what's this about a Peacekeeper music video...I've never heard of it, I actually don't think that would be such a bad name for the album. My favourite would be Running Through The Garden or Everybody Finds Out :shocked: Everbody Finds Out, I just think thats brilliant.

Tynan

Umm...
 

Regardless if the song itself is torturous, the title "From A Distance" worked great, IMO.

Stevie can save those flakey statements for a solo album. Great song, terrible name. It's just soooooooooo cheesy.
