I'm from Argentina, and as you know, the Tango here is just the "national music". I supposed Lindsey chose the name, but obviously I'm not sure.
Anyone know something about that?
Thank you!

I think it's a rather brilliant title for the album. For one thing, the song "Tango in the Night" goes into a slow waltz time during the chorus. But more significantly, it seems that the band dynamic in general is a bit of a tango, which, in my opinion, is a dance that seems to tread the fine line between love and hate. In one instant you're touchy-feely... then in the next, you're throwing your partner halfway across the floor. You're staring intently into each others eyes one moment, and the next moment you're throwing your partner back until her head almost touches the floor. I love you, I hate you, I love you, I hate you... in essence, the story of Fleetwood Mac.
