To be honest, I tend to forget that this album exists!
Without Christine, it just doesn't quite intrigue me. I don't really care for Stevie's "new" voice that seemed to emerge after the Dance. In general, Lindsey's songs are never my favorite.
I feel it was important that the album was made, i.e. that FM went on despite Christine's absence. Does that make sense?
I'll check the songs more closely on Youtube, though.
