NOMINATIONS: Favorite Lindsey Song

Here are the nominations for favorite Lindsey song...Monday Morning, Go Your Own Way, Tusk, Eyes of the World, Goodbye Angel, Tango in the Night, and Steal Your Heart Away.

Nominate 2 songs for favorite Lindsey song according to original album version. These songs won their respective qualifying rounds in the first half of the battle of the songs. The top 3 songs will move on to the Favorite Lindsey Song Finals. The winner of the finals is eligible for Favorite Fleetwood Mac Song. This is Lindsey's only chance to have a song up for Favorite FM song, since he didn't win any of the album battles.

I have delegated Silver Springs as Tiebreaker / Arbiter for these nominations.

Nominations close in 4 days.

Below is one of my favorite Lindsey songs...

Again, more difficult than I thought it would be! I went with GYOW and SYHA though. EOTW and Tusk were my second choices.

I chose the same two, although it was by default. He has other favorite songs of mine that didn't make the cut (WMYTYTO, IKINW)

Tango In The Night and Eyes Of The World. Tango has probably my fav guitar solo of all time... and it's just so atmospheric. Eyes is a great compromise between pushing Fleetwood Mac's signature style yet remaining accessible.

Tango in the Night & Steal Your Heart Away

All alone we suffer -too true.

Wow. There's definitely one song that's sticking out at the moment. Who'd have thunk it would be that one, huh :rolleyes: GYoW is definitely one of their quintessential "Feck you" songs, and Buddha knows they have plenty of those. Even though it's somewhat mean in its representation of Stevie, I've never been able to help the fact that I do feel sorry for Lindsey. His lyrics and approach to the song in the beginning, his anger when he portrays her bely the deep hurt he's suffering at the time. To what extent it is his own doing, that's only really something Stevie and Lindsey will ever know.

GYOW - The only one of the Rumours-era hits I have never grown tired of.

Tango - Love the mood of the song and the guitar solo.

Where is I'm So Afraid?

Sounds vaguely familiar for
some reason...

It failed to make the cut when songs were voted for in earlier polls.

I'm So Afraid came last in the poll with a total of 9 votes, thus making way for Monday Morning to win with 11. Had you have voted back when this poll was up, you could have made all the difference :)

Don't worry, Georgie. Doesn't look like it will matter either way. Surprisingly, we have a far in front runner :rolleyes:

I'm sure demonstrating your guilt is as much of an homage to her. She'll understand lol. If you want we can meet up and go down to her house and apologize in person. (Only joking. I know she prefers her privacy despite how tempting it may be lol).

GYOW is winning so far. Curiously, it was a Lindsey hit, but I feel he never wrote a song like that, that style. I mean there are several songs following the Tusk sound. Mirage and L&O have songs that sound similar too. Tango in the night song reminds me So Afraid.

But I can't find a rock, energic song like Go your own way after Rumours. However is one of his most famous hits. Ok, Big Love may be a rock, fast, energic sound, but it's more 80s.

For these rounds, Lindsey's "Steal Your Heart Away" has gotten more votes than Stevie's "Thrown Down" :shrug:

Nominations end in about 5 hours. Looks like "Go Your Own Way," "Tusk", and "Tango in the Night" are in the lead.

I'm so surpised about how well "Tango in the Night" has done. :confused:

Seeing as the two going through have been pretty much decided, I'm going to indulge in a vote :) It's not likely that I'll be around come the end to see it through.

That was my plan. Oh Well and Man Of The World are split second last voters, me thinks.

I noticed. This somebody must be rallying their friends and making them vote (j/k). Good on it, though. It's one of the greats.
