Least favorite tracks from Tusk?

~*BellaDonna*~ · #1 05-16-2016, 07:47 PM

Every album has some "clunkers" and I honestly think Tusk has some.

This is probably going to anger a few Ledgies, but... I never cared very much for the title track. It bothers me quite a bit. That line "Real savege like" has ALWAYS creeped me out. Another one I'm terribly fond of is Sisters of the Moon. It's OK. But I'm just not that crazy about it. However, I prefer the live versions of it during the Mirage tour vs the album version.

I think "The Ledge" and "Not That Funny" are pretty clunky.

I don't care for the title track either, but it can be nice occasionally...

Not That Funny is so great live though

It's amazing. Stevie has no clunkers here. Can't pick on her. Lindsey has a ton depending on your taste.

I don't dislike any songs on this album. It's a weird album, for sure. But, I love it.

If I have to pick.... That's Enough For Me

It's just not my cup of tea.
I prefer Walk A Thin Line to That's enough For Me.

It's a weird album where clunkers might be the point.

I love all of the oddness and unevenness.

But there are a couple of tunes I just can't force myself to genuinely like, though I know others like them: That's All For Everyone and Never Make Me Cry.

The Ledge and Not That Funny are kooky but I can live with 'em.

lol, we have a Lindsey forum on facebook that we named "real savage like" and we and many others thought it was such a fitting name for a LB group!

i can't stand Sara, as everyone probably already knows. i think it's dirge-like and boring. probably the only song i have to always skip on Tusk.

i'm not very fond of 3 Chris slow tracks on Tusk (sorry John you know i love you!

). although i loved Peter Green version of Brown Eyes.

That's All for Everyone is far from favorite, and i used to dislike Save Me a Place but after hearing various live versions i have grown not to dislike it nearly as much and sometimes being even fond of it. other than that i love most LB Tusk tracks, adore Sisters of the Moon and Think About me, and i'm pretty fond of various versions of Beautiful Child and Storms.

I haven't come across many Mac fans that have a dislike for Sara.... But to each is their own.

The Ledge and Thats enough for me and walk a thin line are just terrible IMO

stevierocks87 · #12 05-17-2016, 06:35 AM

You'll Never Make Me Cry. Bleh.

KenB · #13 05-17-2016, 07:08 AM

1. Sisters of the Moon. Blech.
2. Not That Funny
3. I Know I'm Nor Wrong
4. What Makes You Think You're the One

I like every track on "Tusk" except these.

Yeah, I haven't either. Most fans regard it as a classic. When people say this, it's usually more dislike of the singer than anything else. But yes, to each his/her own, something I'm appreciating me as I get older.

It is my favorite SN song from Tusk and it is my oldest daughters name, but it's spelled with an "h" at the end.
