I'm glad you feel the same as me about this. :xoxo:I know it's an old song but it has a "new" feel about it! The Philladelphia "Sisters" is my favourite so far!:nod:

I voted once for "other" because I really love Tusk this time. The reduced speed makes the beginning even more epic to me.
GDW and The Chain are my other choices.
Honorable mention goes to Big Love.

I ONLY wish she'd go for the "A" in it. She can hit it, because she hits the same note in GDW.

Okay, I'm going with Sisters of the Moon and I'm So Afraid. I'm also going with the other option and voting for Gypsy.

I like Sad Angel, but I find it hard to vote for it, when I don't have a studio version :rolleyes: or previous live versions to compare it to. Mick is driving those drums so hard on SOTM and Lindsey is tearing up his guitar on ISA. I also like the more laid back version/style for Gypsy.

Special mention to the new intro for Tusk!

Still got two days to vote.....:cool:

I voted for Sisters of the Moon, I'm So Afraid, and "other," the other being Tusk. :)

Of course they were all fabulous!

MacShadowsBall 04-22-2013 03:04 PM

Poll closes tonight. Have you voted? :cool:

I can honestly say the only videos I've watched of this tour thus far are of Sisters Of The Moon. I just can't find the will to care about anything else... :sorry:

I've listened to Sad Angel & Without You twice each. Both are definitely good, but overly safe to a kinda boring extent. Sad Angel just seems like bits & pieces of The Best Of Lindsey Buckingham strung together in one song. I could see totally getting into it if I were there in the flesh, but listening to the youtube vids, it just doesn't really elicit anything from me. I can honestly say I've not listened to any other songs from this tour besides Sisters, Sad Angel, and Without You. :eek:

happy to see ISA is doing so great and that people can appreciate it, after all pre-tour calls to get rid of it from the set. its standing is even better than newish WY, and is only behind Sad Angel and Sisters! it's been spectacular on this tour. :thumbsup:

:laugh: i like it but you are onto something there, i thought the same when hearing it first. guess that was probably the intent - best of commercial-ish / fleetwood mac-y (as he says) LB.

I wasn't the biggest fan of Say You Will.. I liked it, but only about half the album floated my boat. So I was skeptical of their new material, but I'm blown away.

Sad Angel.... especially live, is upbeat, poppy, and totally great quality. It just kind of fits Stevie's voice, in my opinion. I think Lindsey was really smart on that one. I just hope the studio version does it justice, and it's over produced.

Without You is just totally boring, on the flip side. I don't care to listen to it again online. I know it's special because it's an old Buckingham Nicks demo, and there's a few lines that I enjoy in it, but it's mostly blah. :o

I'm glad too about ISA though I get a little surprised that GYOW and Tusk didn't get a lot of acclaim.

ISA wasn't a hit or a single, but has endured throughout the years on the Mac and Lindsey tours.

I'm So Afraid is Lindsey's Gold Dust Woman. :cool:

Gold Dust Woman gets considerable airplay, though.

However, in terms of it's life as a part of the setlist, I agree.

hmm, puzzling comparison.

while i love GDW (perhaps more than ISA as a song), i think it's been done practically the same - and therefore it became boooring - at most shows in the recent memory (meaning last 30 years i guess? i can't really speak for SN solo shows though. but even with SSPs while a bit different it was not any better. best newish version to me was Courtney Love's). it was done great at European part of the UL, when Lindsey jazzed up his guitar parts. of course there were bunch of complaints then that he's showing off on SN's song. :rolleyes: other than that it's just going through the motions with those golden shawl twirls at the end happening for like 5 extra minutes of wasted time (imho of course, most audience goes into hysteric trance when this happens lol).

ISA however has been done differently over the years and tours, mostly recently OMS version was completely different (whether you love it or hate it!), and it's always been the highlight of LB's performance and people who have never even heard of him are completely amazed when they see that performance.

so you have one extremely well known and loved song done in a tired way but elicits audience reaction b/c of its cult status (and i love hearing it in concert and singing with it! just wish it would be cut short), and another completely unknown song, done amazingly in concert which inspires owe every time. so yeah, to me, these are 2 very different songs.
