Does Fleetwood Mac regret of have recorded any song?

Don't get on my Sugar Daddy lovers, but if Chris had to do it all over again would that be her choice?

Lindsey once said that some of the songs on their albums even he raises his eyebrows at when he hears them, so I gather he probably has some Christine songs he'd axe. And who knows what he thinks of his own Mirage stuff.

Stevie probably does feel that way about IDWTK, which is a shame, since it's a great song. It has a clear lyric and the chords, melody and harmonies are great.

If there are songs Stevie SHOULD regret recording with Mac, simply pull the two duds from side two of Tango.

I am a HUGE Sugar Daddy fan. I don't think Christine regrets recording it, either, since she likes to play around with the blues. Considering some of her comments in older interviews, she has said some very (accurately) negative things about her singing on the first two Mac albums featuring her full-time involvement. I'm thinking of Morning Rain and Homeward Bound--both decent songs that are sung poorly. (The first version of Morning Rain--called "Start Again"--features a way better vocal.) She also said once she didn't like the way she sang Prove Your Love, which surprises me, since I think she did a great job with it. She loves that song though.

I suppose Christine's biggest regret comes from her pre-Mac experience: the Christine Perfect album.

Lindsey has said his Mirage stuff was "too safe." I wonder which songs he considers such. I think Empire State is an embarrassment any way you look at it, but he might not think so.

If he raises an eyebrow at anything, I imagine it would be a Stevie song. He generally has a high opinion of Christine's material.
