Love Is Dangerous seems to be getting quite a bit of love. I don't get it- for me its just poor.
However, Do You Know and When It Comes To Love are pretty damned good and could have been singles. Hard Feelings is decent too. Billy and Christine's voices work really well together. I'd take an album from just Christine, Billy, Mick and John.

Really? I feel like I hear her much more on BTM than Tango or Mirage.

Don't get me wrong- its not as if she's not on there. I just think it would have eased the transition more had she been even more audible across even more songs.
Her voice was completely absent from the majority of the songs she didn't write.
She can be heard a little bit in the coda of Save Me and she has a small bit in When the Sun Goes Down.
She only really has any prominence on Skies the Limit and In the Back of My Mind.
