Default You Make Lovin Fun
It's funny I was in Ralph's about an hour ago in the produce section jammin to YMLF. It sounds so good in public. That guitar solo is still smokin.

Great friggin' song. I never get enough of it. That clavinet rocks.

And I love listening to the chorus when its stripped just to the vocals on the "making of rumors" dvd. The thick, soaring background vocals are amazing--and saturated with Chris's great voice.

I'm embarassed to admit that I never noticed how prominent(or even existent) those backround vocals really were until the "Making of Rumours.

I've never really noticed the backing vocals on YMLF. In my opinion, the keyboards(piano, organ & especially clavinet) plus Christine's smoky vocals really make the song. It's one of her best.

I get major goosebumps from that, every time. That ending chorus was always my favorite part, although you can't hear it as prominently on the actual album... but those voices together, aack they are stunningly gorgeous.

I know what you mean. That's what I most miss about Chris not being in FM

The combination of the three voices.

Everytime I watch The Making of Rumours I wait for the bit about Dreams when Ken Caillat plays the chorus with just the three of them and no instruments. Just gorgeous.

I'm getting sad now.

My favorite version though, is the one on the bonus Rumours disk, with the alternate lyrics. I wish they'd never changed them.
I'm beginning to wonder why.
I've a feeling it's time to try(is that it exactly?).

For your punishment, you must listen to Street Angel.

yep, i agree with you. i love those lyrics! some review i read of the deluxe set called them "cheesy," but i don't feel that way. i wish they had stayed.

Firstly, I don't have Street Angel. I've never heard it, and I'm fairly certain that I never will.

it's certainly not her best effort, but i find listening to OSOTM far more onerous.

so as not to stray from the topic of ms. mcvie, i came across her 84 album on vinyl last night. it was a happy find.
