Mirage and Tango.

I'm one of the 4 people who actually like "Only Over You" and "Wish You Were Here"...

Counting me, 5 Just doesn't mean I think Mirage was high on the list of Christine's best work, however.

Agreed. All of her BTM songs are great, with the exception of "Do You Know".

Now THAT'S what they should have dusted off for the Dance tour instead of "Everywhere"!

You'd think putting his stamp on a song they recorded after his departure would be right up Lindsey's alley (and by alley I mean ego ).

I think as far as early 90s love songs go, Do You Know is quite lovely. It's one of the few songs on that album I can stand!

I suppose it's not horrible, but it does put me to sleep without fail every time I hear it...

Well, you DO know that Lindsey DOES appear on one track each on both BTM and Time, right??

The only song from the BTM album (including the outtakes) that I can't stand is "The Second Time" (yes, that even includes "Lizard People"! Which is where I think Mick came up with the intro to "In The Back Of My Mind")

I think if they'd had Richard Dashut engineer/produce BTM instead of Greg Ladanyi (RIP, Greg), it would've sounded a whole lot cleaner & would've probably not gotten as much flak.

I adore them. Closed both sides beautifully and made Mirage into a type of lullabye really.

I also love all four of Christine's Mirage songs, I just don't think there her best songs.

I guess it is just a matter of taste. I personally love those songs and was drawn to Tusk initially because of Lindsey and Christine's songs.

Count me in there, I love "Only Over You" and never understood the hate for it.
