Before I tell my answer and / or make my prediction, is this question about all F Mac configurations or just the Sacred 5 Rumours lineup? Inquiring minds want to know. :)

Edit: I just realized this was posted under the Rumours section of this page, so nix (pun intended) that question :)

Do we start posting our least favorite songs?

This contests runs in the Pre-Rumours, Rumours, and Post-Rumours forums. Currently on the Rumours forum there is a thread open focusing on the songs from the '75 white album. Also there are 2 polls open for your least favorite Christine and Lindsey songs from the white album.

However, I'm no longer accepting predictions for the white album, since those polls are now open. :sorry:

Hope that helps!:)

All three polls for the white album have been posted. They close in a few days when the winners along with "World Turning" battle for Least Favorite Song from '75 Fleetwood Mac.

So far we have "Warm Ways" and "Blue Letter" in running for Least Favorite Song from the white album.

The Stevie poll closes tomorrow.

I really like Blue Letter! For me Warm Ways is the worst track on tha album, no question.

Special Annoucement
 

Discussion for the Rumours album starts Monday! Start getting your predictions ready Ledgies! :nod:

For the Rumours album we have "Don't Stop" and "Never Going Back Again", and most likely "I Don't Want to Know" for Stevie, which ends tomorrow.

Should I include last years big winner "The Chain" in the final poll for least favorite song from Rumours? :shrug:

These results just reflect '75 FM and Rumours. Those Ledgies who didn't get any predictions correct are not listed above. Don't want to embarrass anybody. :o

Remember I'm still accepting predictions for Tusk so its not too late for Ledgies to participate. :cool:

Later today, I'll post the update standings for the prediction portion of this contest. :cool:

Update standings!
 

As promised here's the update standings including least fav Christine, Lindsey and Stevie for Mirage, but not yet the final vote for Mirage.

Fiver - 5 correct
McTrouble - 4 correct
Artemis - 3 correct
holidayroad - 1 correct

Looks like Mirage was easier to predict w/ a few Ledgies earning 2 points for Mirage, so far. :cool:

Tango in the Night starts on Memorial Day, so its not too late for more Ledgies to participate in the predictions.

I yam what I yam!

Still accepting predictions for Tango in the Night. Also the polls are up on the Pre-Rumours forum for Future Games. :thumbsup:

Check the Post-Rumours forum for the Behind the Mask least favorite song discussions.

Well there's no point me checking this - I've never heard Behind The Mask :laugh:

I've never been interested in listening to any FM that doesn't include my Lindsey!

There's a link on the Behind the Mask thread to myspacemusic's website with the playlist for Behind the Mask. Christine had some good songs IMO just as good as her songs from Mirage/TITN. Stevie's aren't bad while Billy and Rick's songs are good, but nothing that's really "Wow"!

Yeah if your predominately a fan of Lindsey songs and his production ability/style, then Behind the Mask( and Time) probably ain't gonna be your favorite FM albums. :cool:

Part of the problem is that they played it too safe with the material. Rick had a moster that got cut called "Got No Home" while Billy had a great pop number called "Game Of Love." "Hard Feelings" and "Stand On The Rocks" would't have been my first choices.

Also, IMO, Stevie kept her strongest material for her solo album, and gave the Mac filler. She should have given "Whole Lotta Trouble" to the Mac. I mean, when three people in your band are British blues legends and a fourth is an ex-Bluesbreaker, you gotta give them the blues song.

Remember to check out the polls for Behind the Mask on the Post-Rumours forum and the Bob Welch poll on the Pre-Rumours forum. :D

Predictions Update
 

Check out the Pre-Rumours forum for the Penguin polls. Also check the Post-Rumours forum for discussion on Time. :D

Moving on to Mystery to Me on the Pre-Rumours forum and midway throught the Time album on the Post-Rumours forum. :)

I updated the original post with the standings in the contest so far. Seems as Jeremy and Lindsey have the most songs eligible for least favorite FM song of all time.

Lindsey? That makes me a combination of :distress: and hopping :mad:

yeah Lindsey's got 4 so far, but we still have Say You Will to get to next week.

So we are in the final stages of the first part of the least favorite song contest. The second part begins August 1st.

I plan on running it the same way the favorite song contest last year was run.

If you have any suggestions/comments just let me know! :cool:
