Am I the only one who likes the women in this band more then Lindsey? I like Stevie so much better then Lindsey.... and I like Christine so much better then Lindsey. Not that he is not great, but I am so sick of everyone thinking that he is the best, or he is the star of fleetwood mac.

Does anyone want to debate this topic? Please, I am very bored!

I will just say that FM, to me, has always been about the way the group works, sounds, plays together. Obviously, I have a special place in my black heart for Stevie, but when I think of FM, I don't give any special ranking to any of the members. They all need each other to have that special magic. Lindsey is a very talented person, as is Stevie, Christine and the rest of FM...they all have ingredients that make FM so special. I don't think Lindsey IS FM anymore than I think Stevie is FM. And honestly, I've never really been bombarded by people thinking Lindsey is FM, it's usually Stevie is FM that gets feathers all ruffled. I don't think she is FM, she certainly improves the group, imo, but it's not like "oh there's Stevie and dem oder bitches" - it's "oh there's FM" - at least to me.

as a side note, I always call Destiny's Child Beyonce and dem oder two bitches...that's a prime example of the issue I think being raised here.
