Here's the second poll for Round 2 focusing on Christine's Pre-Rumours/Early Mac songs.

That's okay with me, applebucked! Those are all three great songs. I'm still suprised that her Early Mac didn't do much better.

Yeah. But the ones that got in were what I consider as her finest work with the band.

I certainly wouldn't call it a "definitive list" if Why isn't there.

I think it's unfortunate that only three of Christine's songs from this fantastic 5-album period are in the second round of our contest, and I hope that all three advance. It's too bad that some of her other great songs from this period ("Homeward Bound," "Just Crazy Love," "Prove Your Love," and others) didn't make it past the first round. I would hate to see this excellent period of her career represented by only one song in the final selection.

I agree. Did You Ever Love Me was the only other song that got above 40%, but not 50% to survive the underachievers poll. I think part of it is that less Ledgies vote on those songs, as they may not know/have access to them. The more Ledgies we have voting the more precise the results tend to be. Plus too "Why" is such an incredible song. It got 90% in Round 1

I'm voting for all of these as I don't want to disqualify Come a Little Bit Closer.

I love all three songs dearly. Don't want to lose any of them.
