I love Christine... she is so adorable!

diamondsnake · #1 08-28-2003, 09:18 PM

I was just watching the Dance and the there was the sweetest thing in it that I never saw. In the Everywhere sequence, when she is in the front of the stage next to Stevie, she leaves her microphone and starts dancing around Mick and John behind her. Just like Stevie does. I think it is adorable the way she is doing it just like Stevie- but not like making fun of Stevie. Okay, I'm crazy- I know!

I love Christine and she is just as good as Lindsey and Stevie if not better! Even though she never gets the credit she deserves...

I love Chris, too

I am hoping all the rumors about a new album from her are true.

I do not remember which song it is on The Dance, but CM is jamming on her keyboard and the camera comes in to he left and she is smiling with her mouth open, bobbing her head to the music, and just rock and rollin. I love that shot!!!! i think it might be "Don't Stop."

Christine is awesome! I just think she is amazing in voice and writing. And I think it is safe to assume that this new solo project is for real...at least it better be!!! I honestly have faith that this is going to be an amazing album...

That shot always cracks me up! It's during the outro of Go You Own Way!
It's like the one image in that whole show that seems to capture Christine really in the spirit of the moment, 'rocking' as you say. That's the magic of the GYOW solo for you!

The first time I saw it, I had a flashback to the late 70's and was looking for the Blue Nun wine bottle on her keyboard. She just looked so loose, which is kind of rare for her!!

Lord I miss that woman...

I miss her bunches too. ::gazes up at her picture on the wall:: Even if she doesn't tour, she *has* to get some music out, she just has to...

I hope she tours again someday, but I sadly doubt it. Another album would be great. Her song/vocals are so great and she definetly doesn't get the credit she deserves. The only time (lately) I ever heard about her apart from the Mac in the media was when VH1 had the 100 greatest women in rock and roll. I really miss her.

Chris is one of a kind. I miss her a ton on this album and tour. When I listen to the album, I'll be thinking..."wow, Chris would sound great harmonizing or backing right here...." or "this would be a great spot for a Chris song." Same thing on the tour. Stevie and Lindsey are doing great, but I can't help but feel bad about Chris not being around.

Her being gone is what made me want to check out Fleetwood Mac!

I'm a pretty new fan, but I somehow sensed that her not being there just wasn't right. So I picked up all the Welch era stuff plus some Steive/Lindsey era stuff and have come to the conclusion that I'm not interested in Fleetwood Mac at all without her. Their lame new single "Say You Will" worsens the situation.

Lindsey wrote some good tracks, and Stevie would sometimes have the 1 or 2 powerhouse tracks on the albums, but Christine is the most consistant pleaser out of all of them. Plus, I believe she had the most hits for the band. Don't Stop, You Make Lovin' Fun, Everywhere, Little Lies, and Hold Me are probably the Mac's most recognizable tracks, not to mention Say You Love Me and the less popular Think About Me.

Plus, she plays the keyboards and yeah, she is adorable. She's not a knockout beauty like Stevie but she has a really adorable natural beauty to her, although I have seen some pretty raunchy pictures of her. We all have bad days though.

Overall though she just seems like a really nice, down to earth person.

My favorite shot in the Dance is when she sings the "well I wish you were busy with mine" line from Temporary One when she shrugs her shoulders, like she's really bummed that somebody's not paying enough attention to her.

It makes you wanna give her a hug.

Nice try, but no. Dreams, the only No. 1 hit, and Go Your Own Way, the one song that still gets played daily on the radio, have that honor. The third one would be Don't Stop, but if Clinton hadn't used it in 1992, it would not have remained as popular.

Christine is a solid, consistent player, and she has a great voice. But her lyrics for the most part were rather banal. I'm glad she's not in Fleetwood Mac anymore, and not because I wanted her our or anything, but because this way I got more Lindsey music. Frankly, I wouldn't mind if the other chick left too.

I'm really, REALLY not trying to be rude here, but why come in to a thread saying nice things about Chris and basically do something that's on the line of dissing her? To be honest with you, it was not Lindsey who was always left with very little songs on an album, that was Stevie. If you want a Fleetwood Mac with JUST Lindsey, then I suggest you look in to his solo work. This is all I'm going to say, because I do not want to go through what I have at some other boards. I'm sorry, but I've been keeping these opinions in for way too long now.

If you took what I said as a personal affront, you need to lighten up, especially since I hadn't directed one single comment at you. There is no proviso on this thread, or any other, that comments posted be only positive.

Take a deep breath.

Chirstine is the greatest. I miss her alot, esp. at the concerts during World Turning and Don't Stop. I've always liked her, but it was recently when she kind of took the place of Stevie in my top spot, mainly because I discovered Mystery to Me and her pre-Mac solo work and the Chicken Shack stuff. She is a great lyricist, but an even better aranger. She has a gorgeous voice, and her range is phenomenal, and she's probably one of the best pianists I've ever heard! Oh man, she has to do another album! I hope those rumors are true!
