Well it is with me.
It's like she scattered a load of random sentences on the floor, picked out a dozen or so and shoved them together. There is a thread of a song in there but it's so disjointed.
Disjointed ramblings.

certainly on this board it seems to be largely hated. i think Not That Funny is great, and i love album version and all different live versions. so i guess that's my one unpopular song.

Walk A Thin Line is definitely generally unknown and therefore by definition not popular.... although i think many Mac fans like it. besides Second Hand News, it is my favorite [rumours-era] Mac song.

i don't think Murrow gets nearly the love it deserves. i also think Don't Stop is undeservedly hated among Mac fans. i have my theories why, including that, whether you like it or not it's the most known FM song, across all generations of general public.

1. Sugar Daddy (I was really surprised to hear that a lot of people don't like this song)

2. Smile At You--the Say You Will version (Everyone here comments on how much better the demo version is, but I love this version).

3. When I See You Again (not Stevie's best, but I sill like it a lot)

It's the unpopular rumours era songs (Stevie's tango songs, Lindsey's mirage songs etc) and again I find pretty much all of those either bad or just ehh. Of the list I'm about to make I'm pretty sure only 1 is in the truly unpopular category:

1. No Questions Asked
2. Freedom (is this unpopular?)
3. Not That Funny (this is a huge stretch, I don't think any song from tusk could ever be considered unpopular but I feel if one Lindsey song was generally less popular it's this one)

Not That Funny is not a favorite among fans but I like it, too.

1. Paper Doll

3. Honey Hi

I loved Paper Doll and loved the video. It made me giddy. I missed them.

I appreciate Not that Funny, but if there was just the studio version and no live performances, I don't think I would have paid much attention to it. Because I like some (not all) live versions so much, that made me appreciate the studio version more.

Some interesting answers....
I also like Empire State, as mentioned it is very Tusk like and I like the beat of it.

Not that funny is also great in my mind, sounds like a child at home beating on a toy drum in my mind, I find it quite endearing strangely.

Glad I am into alone with the Paper Doll love..... Some of the odd lyrics just amuse me and it's so singable :nod:

I love Sugar Daddy and No Questions Asked, and really like Paper Doll and Empire State. So three of those four, heh.

I love Wish You Were Here... it always tears at my emotions..

And then I think of Dennis Wilson passing...

1) Mystified - gorgeous harmonies
2) Oh Diane - lightweight, but fun
3) Smile At You - I know some didn't care for Lindsey's production of the song, but I think it turned out great (grammar aside).
