DISCUSSION: Christine's songs from Tango in the Night

[RickRobert]

Everywhere: Love it, love the demo version even more... even if it is too short...
Little Lies: Really like this one, but it's always bugged me how deep in the mix the guitar and bass are...
Isn't It Midnight: Amazing in every possible way!
Mystified: Like it, but the glockenspiel drives me nuts!
You And I Pt. 2: Do not like what happened to this song at all, I adore Eyes Wide Shut though...

Oh i agree, but hold me sits better among the other songs like diane, eyes, book of love and only over you.

I love stevies songs on that album and without them the album would have been a more cohesive unit... but not nearly as interesting.

I'm thinking counting Mystified and Isn't it Midnight as all Christine. I'm not sure what Lindsey's involvement was, but to me vocally, they sound Christine.

While "You and I part 2" sounds more duet like...

I need to know, due to post the Christine poll today...

YEP, I've got your back on those.

Considering Lindsey's OotC version of "Soul Drifter", I'd give the entire song to Lindsey on that one.

I agree with chili on both matters and suggest the decision be deferred to his judgement.

So give Isn't it Midnight and Mystified to Christine, and "You and I" to Lindsey.

I'll get the poll done this afternoon...

Everywhere - I've never really cared for this song all that much. It's simply OK. I can't stand the ending with those 'dum' voices. Drives me mental.

Mystified - This (along with "When I See You Again) is my least favourite song of the album.

Little Lies - Sure it's a bit of fluffy pop, but it's a classic and still a great song listen and sing along to.

Isn't It Midnight - Hands down one of my all time favourite Fleetwood Mac songs. It makes you wish that Christine and Lindsey had collaborated more often. The guitar at the end is just immense and really reminds you how great Lindsey is. There is just something magical about this song. It almost hypnotizes you in the same way that "Rhiannon", "Gold Dust Woman" and "Sisters of the Moon" do.

Glad to see a new Ledgie, TheSorcerer! We're heading to the last few albums before the winners battle it out! Should be very interesting...
