No, not yet. I kinda forgot about it. Plus, it's kinda tricky to place instrumentals. We can add it in later or just reply your vote for it here. Thought with Silver Springs and Fireflies, it would have a hard chance of winning. Of course I want all songs to be represented.

Oh, I'm sure it won't win or affect the results much. It's just the completist in me wanting to include ALL the songs.

Always been a fan of "Fireflies". I used it as one of the many Mac songs I used to help teach myself to play the drums years ago and used it as a warm up after that.

I actually like all of the songs available to vote on with the exception of "No Questions Asked". I honestly just can't stand that song. I skip it whenever I have the "Greatest Hits" CD playing and didn't even put it on my iTunes library. Just can't listen to it.

Well I must be one of a very few that actually like No Questions Asked. I'm kinda suprised about Paper Doll doing so well.

I'm the only one who voted for it. How come you don't vote?

Fireflies and No Questions Asked, two of the greatest songs ever. Fireflies will always be my favorite song of all time.

Default Nothing else...

1) Silver Springs. The original version is amazing, wonderful. Every voice, guitar, piano, bass...lyrics are so strong, and the duration is enough to say "hey you, I'll never forget you, but you won't forget me too, hahaha". I think is THE BEST Stevie's extra song.

2) Paper Doll. I know it's a rare song. It's style is different than the rest of the FM songs and, after Paper Doll, Stevie left the band. Maybe it gives a different sense to the song. The video also sums up an era (if the video I know is the "official").

Nothing else. Regards!

"Silver Springs" a non-hit? Seriously? That song was unavoidable on the radio when it first came out; it was really considered to be a double-single with GYOW. Why didn't you include her other "non-hit" "Dreams?"

vixfox and others...
...Sometimes I forget to check and actually vote. Other times I don't vote so that I could break a tie, and thusly avoid another poll.

I never really cared much for the Rumours "album" version of Silver Springs. Nonetheless, The Dance version is awesome!

My votes went to Fireflies and No Questions Asked.
