While I mean no offense(and hope that Bob doesn't read this), I don't think Bob was ever a great vocalist. And while Stevie and Lindsey certainly aren't the greatest(especially now), they did bring an "existing duet" to the table, which lent itself to Chris adding the third part, which created the FM magic.

That said, Bob, if you do read this - your incarnation(s) of FM, will always be my favorite!!!

May I just add that his harmonies w/ Christine and backing vocals had a magic of their own. As a lead singer, that wasn't always the case.. but the overall sound of his voice was very pleasing to me. .. then add Christine to any voice and you automatically get better...
