I would not bet against the Chiffon.. been here too long..

Ditto. lol.

I like all three of them for various reasons -- that's why Fleetwood Mac is so unique and appealing.

I didn't officially vote. These polls are becoming rather superfluous, aren't they? It's evident in the extremely low voting numbers. People are getting tired of them because of the overload.

I prefer to have a dialogue - it's more productive and less mindless.
Word to the poll-addictive posters: just say no!

Someone should make a poll listing all the active Ledgies and the rest of us could guess next to their name which singer they like the best. It would be based on how well we know each other's tastes. For example, before I even looked at the results I knew Butter Cookie was gonna vote for Christine.

Agree 100%. In terms of songwriters-singers, that's the reason I love Fleetwood Mac.
There are times I love to listen Stevie songs, then there are Lindsey periods, or Christine months.. but actually it's the combination that I love. That's why my favorite band is not a one singer band.

And yes I miss Christine, Fleetwood Mac is not the same without her.

interesting opinion. while i personally may agree with your dialogue preference, polls provide some insights (and numbers!) dialogue doesn't necessarily. also in many instances a poll serves as a dialogue starter - as it has already here. however some people do not feel the need to express their opinions in a dialogue form, for whatever reason, but still like to vote in polls. it's nice to have their opinions captured too.

that's a good point, and i can tell you right now that even though penguinhead and villavic chose not to vote in the poll if they absolutely had to choose their votes would go for SN and CM, respectively (imo :shrug:). and i don't think anybody can doubt who is my or yours favorite. but there are many members who are not as loud as us; why not hear them in the form of poll then?

I think it's interesting how many Stevie fans feel the need to acknowledge a perceived lack of technical skill: "She's my favorite, but obviously the weakest link," "I love her, but she's wildly inconsistent." It reminds my of the favorite songwriters thread a few months ago, when Stevie was almost never mentioned without a caveat.

Chiffonheads may be the loudest and most active group here, but we're also strangely skeptical of our queen. No need to be ashamed of Stevie's place in our wild hearts! Consider her material within Fleetwood Mac 1975-83, and try to tell me she's a weak link.

Personally, I'm like 50% Stevie, 40% Chris, 10% Lindsey.

I completely relate and agree with you on this. The Mac is my favorite all time band. I also like all three of them in their solo endevers. I also am proud to say that Ms. Nicks is my musical obsession. I am completely inspired by her poetry and songwriting. I love her passionate stage:thumbsup: performances both now and in her hayday. I miss the three voices that were made for each other and the rhythmn section that makes The Mac into the the best most unique band in the history of 70's era Rock-N-Rolla.

ohhh, you are breaking my heart with that 10%.:distress:

you know that kiss he blew at 92Y? i take back what i said - definitely not to you. :p:angel:

:sorry:

Hahahaha I was forgetting that. Maybe I'll up it to 40% Stevie, 35% Chris, 25% Lindsey? :angel:

nah, not good enough... taking the kiss for myself now (memory lapses are beautiful thing :laugh:)

have to add after reading posts from many nice people here expressing their love for all 3 songwriters... although i like some of the songs from the girls, and some of the 3-part harmonies are just gorgeous, i really only have love for LB.:sorry: without him i would not be interested in FM (well, if you disregard PG period), or either one of the girls.

Fair enough;) Heck, we may as well all let our fangirliest memories fly free! I know I will maintain it was for me always!

Objectively, I think they're all wonderful songwriters. It just comes down to personal taste. Nothing wrong with having favorites! And while I tend not to connect with Lindsey's material within the Mac so much as I do with Stevie's and Christine's, he blew me away live. I'm grateful to all of them for their roles within Fleetwood Mac.

i like the girl...(stevie) not the snobby guy...or the other guy..???? LOL:lol:

Of course I love Stevie with every chiffon ounce of my body, but I'll always absolutely love Christine. When considering purely Fleetwood Mac songs, Christine knocks it out of the park as my favorite. But the combination of Stevie's solo and Mac career makes up my favorite artist of all time, and that will never change. I don't really want to vote, because come to think of it I love Lindsey's songs so much I truly consider him my favorite in FM sometimes as well :shrug:

To whom are you referring? :lol::lol::lol:
