Your favorite BTM songs
 

This forum is very slow. Let's do a poll

From Behind the mask, what do you like more: Stevie's songs, Christine songs, or the material from the new boys? Don't wanted to underrate Rick and Billy songs, but just wanted to group both as a "new sound" from the new members. Anyway if you want to specify Rick or Billy songs, feel free to post it.

Remember the songs are:

1. Skies The Limit
2. Love Is Dangerous
3. In The Back Of My Mind
4. Do You Know
5. Save Me
6. Affairs Of The Heart
7. When The Sun Goes Down
8. Behind The Mask
9. Stand On The Rock
10. Hard Feelings
11. Freedom
12. When It Comes To Love
13. The Second Time

Christine's without hesitation :cool:

hmm. i love all of christine's songs, and love is dangerous.

I actually like all the songs on this album. Except for 'When it Comes to Love'. That song is just lame on every level...

Musically, I like the following:

3. In The Back Of My Mind
4. Do You Know
6. Affairs Of The Heart
7. When The Sun Goes Down
10. Hard Feelings
11. Freedom
12. When It Comes To Love
13. The Second Time

whereas lyrically, some of those are a bit so/so, but I'm not telling which ones. You know them anyway ;-)

Yeah, the whole album is great, but I voted for Stevie because I really like Love Is Dangerous.

My favorites are:

Skies The Limit
Love Is Dangerous
Save Me
When The Sun Goes Down
Behind The Mask
Hard Feelings
Freedom

I voted for Christine's songs. I really liked her and Billy's songs best. Unfortunately, Rick's best songs never made it on the album.

My favorites:

1. Behind The Mask(one of her best)
2. When The Sun Goes Down
3. Do You Know
4. When It Comes To Love
5. In The Back Of My Mind
6. Save Me

The Second Time is easily my favorite song on the album.:)

Best is Freedom!:blob2:
But my favourites are Save Me, Affairs Of The Heart and Skies The Limit too.
From new bandmembers´ songs I like best Stand On The Rock.

YYYEEEEEEEEEEYYYYY!!! \o/

Tough to decide on your poll questions as Stevie & Christine were allowed more songs on the album. Here are my favs from BTM:

(in no particular order)

Affairs Of The Heart
When The Sun Goes Down
Stand On The Rock
Love Is Dangerous
Save Me
Behind The Mask
Hard Feelings
Freedom

Glad to see some Stand on the Rock and Affairs of the Heart love...Love those two!

Best songs:

The Second Time
Freedom
Affairs of the Heart
Love is Dangerous

Worst Songs:
Behind the Mask
Skies the Limit
Do You Know
In the Back of My Mind

Uhhgg, Christine was really below par with her songs:distress:

It's just amazing how polar opposite our tastes are. :shrug: I thought Christine was in top form, all your "Best Songs" are my "Worst Songs" & vice versa. To me "In The Back Of My Mind" by itself was worth the price of the CD.

Yes well you would say that wouldn't you?

IAWTC :nod:

Chris owned this album hardcore. And In The Back of My Mind really is awesome too. I should listen to that album now...

Chris owned this album. Stevie's stuff is rubbish in comparison.

Christine's songs are wonderful on BTM. My favs are Skies the Limit, Do You Know and the title track, a nice, dark departure for her.

Here's your little graduation gift. I hope you don't already have it:

Stand On The Rock (Live)

This is from the first leg of the Behind The Mask Tour:
Recorded live at Maine Road, Manchester, England on 8/25/90

Enjoy!

I almost included 'Tear It Up' which was a great encore song. I have the whole show.

Behind the Mask is my first Mac album I love all the songs and it's hard for me to choice Chris or Stevie either songs are wonderfull...
Affairs of the heart is one of the best Stevie's song I love
Behind the Mask-In the back of my mind-Freedom.....

This is one of my least favorite FM albums, but the more I listen to the title track, the more I love it. Christine's are the best by far here. "Love is Dangerous" is the only remotely tolerable Stevie song here.

my favorite is affairs of the heart and freedom also save me.

Another tough one! But I gotta go with Stevie's songs. Esp. Affairs of the Heart. My fave!!!

I gotta say, as corny as it sounds, it's cool to see how much we vary in our opinions on this topic. :nod:

This whole album is extremely underrated.... although Christine is way too "Christine" on this- even a further progression from Mirage, if it's believable.

"Hard Feelings" <---- should have been the second single after Christine's beautiful "Sky's the Limit"

Second single. ... ... "Freedom" ..... Stevie kicks ass in the Klonopin years.

And my favorite............ "The Second Time". 'Nuff said.

I voted Christine, but I do really like "Affairs of the Heart"

Yeah she does. I really love this song.

I think this song deserves an appreciation thread. :nod:

Behind the Mask
In the Back of My Mind
Save Me

The Bridge in (In The Back of My Mind) is as Fleetwood Mac as it gets.

Christine's, if only for the excellent 'Save Me'. Stevie's contributions weren't exactly the peak of her songwriting with the Mac, but they're amiable. I think 'Freedom' is the best of the bunch.
