Forgotten Fleetwood Mac

Mirage had 3 singles, and two big hits, but even songs like "Eyes of the World" and "Straight Back" are mentioned on the Ledge with some regularity; the song that inspired this thread, "Book of Love," for whatever reason, is not.

Right, casual fans may not know "Straight Back," but it's quite a favorite here. We are always talking about the duet with Christine, the country sound, etc.

And we also talk about songs we hate rather frequently (WTTRS, Family Man, Sugar Daddy, etc.)

hmm, I had to figure out WTTRS was lol. Officially there are no songs of FM I actually hate, but there are ones I could live without(or just skip/tune out)

I happen to like all songs you mentioned, but I love me some Sugar Daddy!

Songs I could do w/o:

• (Warm Ways actually grew on me in recent years)
• SMAP, WATL, TAFE or anything strumming/folksy from LB 79-80 period.-I guess this is my equivelent to SN self-indulgent WISYA and TST that almost EVERYONE hates
• Straight Back (Garbo, Sleeping Angel, or Blue Lamp would have been a better pick)
• Only Over You
• Mystified
• The Second Time

I forgot about The Second Time!! LOL. It's one of those songs where the lyrics make more sense on paper than they do sung in the song--- seems like the line breaks in the vocal break up the lyrics in places where it doesn't make as much sense to me.

Does anyone have any insights into who it might be about? Who was Stevie having a second time around with? A man? Or the band...?

Family Man - LOVE this song.
Honey Hi - I adore the harmonies in this.
Love Is Dangerous
In the Back of My Mind
Heart of Stone - Should've been a single.
That's Alright
Illume - One of my favourite FM songs, it's so mystical and enchanting.
