Both Lindsey AND Christine overplay his contributions to her songs. He is an important producer, but her songs in demo form are usually fleshed out and well-crafted, before he even gets to them. And, in the case of Everywhere, I prefer the demo!
That Everywhere demo is fantastic. I love her Behind the Mask (title track) demo, too!! Christine can produce her own stuff, she's just an artist that knows what's up. Know's what's good. And, let's it come out the way it wants to. You have to understand art to get that much. A lot of people don't understand collaborations and what it takes to be an artist that's open to letting people work with you. It's why she had 4 hits by Rumours where Lindsey and Stevie each had 2. And in Stevie's case she had a number 1 hit. And listen to how much of a band effort Dreams is.
