I couldn't agree more! "Wish You Were Here" is one of Christine's finest compositions and a fantastic choice to close the "Mirage" album. The opening piano riff of "Wish You Were Here" sounds almost identical to the opening chords of the 1997 live version of "Silver Springs" from "The Dance" album. Did Chris use the same tune?

In fact, all four of Chris' songs from "Mirage" are fantastic. From the playful harmonies of "Love In Store" to the lilting loneliness of "Only Over You", Chris hits a home run! Just several more reasons why "Mirage" is one of the greatest albums in Fleetwood Mac's catalog.
