It's not a question of whether Lindsey could sing Christine's songs, but rather a question of "Why should he?" I have absolutely no interest in hearing Lindsey or Stevie "covering" Christine's songs in concert. If I ever get a chance to attend another show, I'd rather hear new songs, or songs they have never/rarely done.
Many fans (including myself), have been critical of the band for being stuck in the past, especially stagnent set lists. Adding Christine songs the mix just drives that point home.
Granted, I liked that Lindsey gives a nod to the past blues-era with 'Oh Well." So in that vein, one Christine song would be acceptable. I just wish it wasn't such an obvious choice, i.e. Say You Love Me or Don't Stop. A recasted deep album track would be more tasteful, and offer less critiicism /comparision to the original version.
