Christine McVie ... she immediately knew she had to step up her game, explaining, “When Stevie and Lindsey joined I was in awe of the way they wrote and sang together. It was tough to compete and be good enough. I wasn’t a prolific writer to any degree. I didn’t start writing songs properly until I joined Fleetwood Mac. I was quite a novice on (1972′s) Bare Trees and (1971′s) Future Games.”
They do my songs, ‘Don’t Stop’ and ‘World Turning,’ but they are limited to what they can do of mine. I think they tried ‘You Make Loving Fun,’ but I don’t think the sound of their vocals were right. But I wish them well.”
“I just felt kind of relieved, if you want to know the truth, ’cause I, I went backstage afterwards, and they were all so tired, and, I just don’t think I could do that anymore. It’s kind of, if you like, verified that I’d made the right decision.”

Wow, what a classy lady! Thx for posting!
I must say that Chris is a class act and sold herself a little short when talking about "stepping up her game". Her songs were the ones that were radio hits!
She's very humble and sensitive to her former friends/colleagues...it makes her even more endearing.
my original post was intended (if an album would transpire) that Chris could do a few "one-off " shows in London and the surrounding areas...all filmed like "Dance". But I totally get her not wanting to be "lured back in" and the other members not being able to perform a "new" hit by her.
Cheers to wishful thinking!
