One More Night
 
Is this song totally underappreciated or is it just me? It is absolutely in my top five Christine McVie songs, yet no one ever talks about it. It's like this song doesn't exist. I swear, I've been on the Ledge for three years and not one person has ever mentioned this song. So, I would just like to say that I think this song is amazing. And that's pretty much my point. :p

It's not one of my favorites. :sorry: It kind of drones on. :shocked:

I'm with you shinnyreptiile...

I like this song too-
It's pretty and the melody is sweet and the lyrics are sad.....
Not the typical upbeat Chris song...
I never skip it when it comes on, although there are many other Chris songs I do skip.

Just my .2 cents

It's OK. I don't really dislike it, but it's one of my least favorite Christine songs. I believe it may be the only song she ever wrote in the 3rd person, which annoys me.

I kinda like it. It's not her best by any means. It clunks, though because of the placement on the album....after the power that is DLMDA, this song is buzzkill.

So Stevie must annoy the heck out of you? :laugh:

"One More Night" is okay. I disliked it intensely at first, but I've warmed to it some.

I understand where you're coming from. I love Stevie, but the third person voice grates sometimes. I found she used the third person more effectively pre-RAL.

Back to Christine before I receive the wrath of Homie. :lol:

I'm not afraid of the wrath of Homie. :laugh: I like the third person thing. Don't know why. I guess I feel like it makes things more universal. It's easier to relate to the song in some cases.

Anyway, "One More Night" isn't one of my favorites by any means but I don't dislike it, basically. So, nothing that hasn't already been said.

Upon first listen 25 years ago, I just thought of it as "Over & Over, Part II". Hasn't really grown past that in the 1/4 century hence.

I like it on certain songs ("The Highwayman," etc.) I think her most universal songs are the ones written in the first person, actually. "Storms," "Outside the Rain," "Landslide," etc.

I'm truly proud to be known as Christine's biggest defender. :xoxo: :angel: :wavey:

I'm not so crazy about the song as I am the vocal and recording. Her voice is so smooth on this song.

Well, when I think about it, my absolute faves are in first person..."Outside the Rain," "Every Day," "Sable on Blond," "Sara," "Beautiful Child," etc.
