Is Lindsey the Most Attractive Musician Ever?
 

I think he is.

This may sound strange, but I'm a gay 31 year old woman. And yet...Lindsey...I find him VERY attractive. In terms of both his looks and his charisma, energy and obvious genius-level talents.

Anyone else find themselves strongly attracted to Lindsey?

Absolutely. And I like your bold statement. :nod: Lindsey is such a beautiful artist and so under-appreciated (for the most part, but these days have been good to him), but I never thought about him being in the "most" or "ever" category, just because...he always gets short-shifted on those polls.

But why the hell not? He's gorgeous and an incredible performer. Let's not even get into his musicianship. Sure there's people who have had more success and way more attention, but in my book LB belongs there and moreso. ;)

So I think I'm on a pretty similar wavelength. Just imagine someone who feels as strongly about his greatness, just not into those general statements as much. But I love when other people say them.:wavey:

In a word...YES! :nod:

I mean, really, just sit and watch him play his guitar...one of the sexiest things on the planet. Remember how Stevie said something about always coming home from work just to find him sitting in the floor with his guitar?? I most definitely wouldn't mind walking into my house to find Lindsey Buckingham...especially the Lindsey Buckingham from the late 60's through the early 80's...sitting in the middle of my floor playing the guitar.

There are not enough words to describe how absolutely attractive Lindsey is! I have always thought so! Not only beautiful, but so very talented too. I don't enjoy his music though because of his looks. He'd be number one in my book even if he hadn't looked so great!:)

Hmm... I'm a gay man, and I've always found his looks to be a bit... odd. Even when he first joined Fleetwood Mac he wasn't what I'd call typically attractive. I guess maybe he's too thin and delicate looking for me? I dunno. For a moment in time, I do think he was extremely hot during the Tusk era though. That close cropped hair, those fabulous tailored suits, even the dark eye makeup... definite hotness! I absolutely love his clothing style the past 10 years as well... he and I definitely have the same taste in clothes. I just want to take some ****ing clippers to his silly hair though, or at least get him to stop brushing it back. Not too flattering when it's receding and going grey! :sorry:

you know I was looking all singers and musicians included in my ipod songs. Definitely Lindsey is one of the best good looking. However I could mention others:

Chris Isaak
Corey Hart
(young) Sting
Justin Timberlake
Jim Morrison (in his best days of course)
Spandau Ballet singer.

Even though I find his music endlessly dull, I think Jack Johnson is easily the best looking male musician out there right now (in my book). He just has that all-American laid back good looks to him... very handsome.

:laugh: I agree, he isn't typically attractive. For the longest time I thought he had a funny, wide mouth, and I still think that. He was hot during the Tusk era. It wasn't until he started working the heroin-chic look near the middle/end of 1979. Boy got too thin. :eek:

I'm also a gay female and I have got to admit that I do find Lindsey very good looking during the Tusk era.

... Maybe this is us gay ladies saying that we think Lindsey is feminine :laugh: :p

Lindsey's a good looking man, but - for me anyway - what makes him sexy is his talent. Even ugly musicians can become sexy if they've got talent.

:lol: My brother said "Lindsey should've gone on propetia (sp?) to keep his lovely curls."

I'm not sure the curls are gone. He does have a bald spot and a receding hair line, but he still has plenty of hairs. If he grew it out more, he'd still have curls, but I'm not sure an older man needs more hair.

I agree with Louie that he shouldn't brush it back off of his forehead though.

I don't think I've ever seen a man more good looking than Lindsey and I've certainly never seen a produceer, guitarist, singer and songwriter as handsome, but I'm not that objective.

Once you like someone, their good looks seem to increase astronimically.

Lindsey's bald spot is workable, though. It's not very prominent on his good days, of which he has many, but I suppose when he makes absolutely no effort with his hair you can definitely notice he has one. However, the man just turned 60 and he's still incredibly sexy/beautiful, so I can totally live with the bald spot and whitish hair. Totally.

I personally think he's incredibly physically attractive, especially during the days when his hair was darker. I loved all those thick curls and piercing blue eyes and the way his face was all chiseled when he looked serious and boyish when he smiled. Yes, he's always veered toward the skinnier side, but he works it.

But most of all, his music is like another, supernatural trait of his that empowers him to the scale of being that much more gorgeous because of how brilliant and intense he is. I have seen SO many people live. Amazing artists. But I honestly can name no one who can touch Lindsey's intenseness or even match him at his most passionate of deliveries, where he is one with his instrument, the melody, and nothing else in the world can draw you away from it.

:laugh:

Reminds me of Wanda Sykes recent televised stand up show where she's talking about how she can't believe how the stars from her generation are getting old. That Jamie Lee Curtis is doing Activia commercials because she can't ****, and Sally Field has old lady back and needs Boniva. :laugh:

And now Lindsey Buckingham is losing his pretty curls! ;)

Wanda Sykes was very funny. The stuff she was saying (about being lactose intolerant, wearing Spanx, and her stomach "Esther") was very funny and it reminded me of things that happen to my mother, but the sad truth is that in absolutely no time, it's going to sound more like me than my mother. Well, actually, already my mother and I are starting to have much too much in common.

There was that cute moment in Destiny Rules when John and Lindsey were joking about keeling over with a heart attack. After putting on a show for 2.5hours Lindsey probably has Kristin rub him in Ben Gay at night.

My fav Lindsey era is when his hair was all thick and curly and muppet-like. His face was less chiselled and more soft. His eyes stood out against the soft hair and face, as stark ice blue...GORGEOUS!!!

And yes, of course I'd still love his music even if he was the elephant man!

I wonder also, besides the gay girl finding him to be a bit feminine (I also find Johnny Depp attractive. And find his lovely cheek bones and delicate manner somewhat feminine in a good way), if I find him even more attractive because in those photos of him with Stevie, they were BOTH SO DAMN ***HOT***! And everyone knows I love Stevie and find her to be one of the, if not THE, most attractive female musician ever.

Stevie was really ****ing hot. It's almost annoying at times. Even her bad pictures are good ... sometimes. :lol:

haha i wouldn't mind rubbing Lindsey's back for him!!!!!:p

I'm a straight male and to be honest Lindsey does absolutely nothing for me ;)

One of the most attractive, yes! :D

Is Lindsey the Most Attractive Musician Ever?

Yes. :nod:

The one of him getting off the plane more often than not the background on my Blackberry. I wish I had a poster-size version of that pic.

Here are 13 pictures on UPI. Eleven of them are concert shots from a few years ago and are really nice. I may have seen them before, but not in the same slideshow pictorial.

http://www.upi.com/topic/Lindsey_Buc.../photos/pg-13/

Great pics!! I wish he'd have his haircolor more like that now. I'm not saying no gray, but a few more dark streaks would be nice!

Very true. I fell in love with Lindsey's music first, and then his looks. But I don't think that diminishes how strongly I feel about those looks ... I'm a 20 year old girl and he's the sexiest star I can think of!! It's in the eyes and the expression of the face and how he holds himself onstage. When I saw him in Dublin this year I just couldn't take my eyes off him... *giggly*

For me, I don't care how much gray, but I definitely like it longer, like in the Destiny Rules doc/SYW tour. I didn't really like the Unleashed tour look as well. His hair looked great around 2000 to 2007 - IMO :thumbsup:

And I like it here:

PS Just waiting for BTFLCHLD to find this thread... :laugh:

Beautiful features, gorgeous head of hair, stunning eyes, and amazing skills. Yes, I would definitely say that Lindsey is an attractive man.

Definitely the most attractive musician ever, just Beautiful in my opinion, I love Bearded Lindsey, skinny Tusk Lindsey in fact all of it. The only one i have a problem with is the Law and Order cover i don't know why, to me it just isn't him. Does anyone else think this or is it just me being weird lol?

No, I agree completely. Some kind of bronze hunk, but not Lindsey. None of Lindsey's personality. Put a shirt on that guy and get him off of my album cover:laugh:.

Michele

No. It pains me to say it but Lindsey reminds me eerily of a less buff David Hasselhoff Baywatch-era in that shot. I almost disregard that photo shoot entirely when I think about LB.

I think you've hit the nail on the head ugh! And you're right Michelle There's no personality there, give me Go insane and Tango Lindsey anyday delicate features, make up and all:laugh:

I adore OOtC Lindsey as well. So handsome. And all those suits and his style around that time was so sophisticated. I know the 90s weren't exactly the pinnacle of fashion, but he looked incredibly suave during that time. I love Lindsey in his 40s.:xoxo:

Oooh, yes please :)

So, what's a better shirtless cover....L&O or Buckingham Nicks?? Or do you think both of them don't really work for Lindsey? I think both are okay, but not my faves. As for Lindsey with beard/facial hair, I have to say I'm So glad he ditched both. A little stubble is okay, but the beard was hiding him!!!!

I think Lindsey's aura and attitude on the BN cover is a little less generic than on Law and Order. I agree with you about the facial hair or the big hair in general. He often seems buried in it. In fact, some of the earlier high school pictures of him look more like "Lindsey" than those early seventies photos do to me.

But this probably has a lot to do with the photos being in black and white. If they had been in color and his eyes had still been distinctive, then those hirsute pictures probably would have reminded me a lot more of the man we know today, even with all the hair.

Michele

I love the Law & Order cover.

I will have to go with Buckingham Nicks as i seem to have such a problem with Law and Order. I would have loved to have seen the others faces when he first walked in all cropped and clean shaven. I think my jaw would've just hit the floor!;)

You've hit the nail on the head! So glad he never looked back after Tusk....

Carol wrote about it in her book. She says the band was shocked and claims that Christine and Stevie were especially mad at her for convincing Lindsey to change his look. They just glared at her. It was pretty comical really, the way she described it.
