****if the song Emerald Eyes was called Mystery to Me it would be # 3.

7: Say You Will - The only Fleetwood Mac song with a mini children's choir. If this was recorded five years prior when Nicks sounded less nasally, it's possible that I wouldn't put this song at the bottom of the list. It's not a completely irredeemable song; the chorus is admittedly catchy and the production is serviceable.

6: Bare Trees - A tad too repetitive, but the guitar playing is top notch.

5: Future Games - I would be hard pressed to recall any lyrics from this song other than the words "future games", but the dreamy quality of the instrumentation is the primary attraction here.

4: Behind the Mask - Lindsey's acoustic guitar solo is the highlight of the song. The remainder of it possesses an atmospheric sonic environment that I enjoy.

3: Tusk - This used to be one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs, but overexposure has resulted in it sliding down a bit. I prefer the August 1979 mix, which features more prominent horns.

2: Heroes Are Hard to Find - I'm disappointed that this didn't take off as a single. The song is absolutely infectious and I love the horn arrangement.

1: Tango in the Night - The verses have a very ambient quality that I very much appreciate. The guitar solo at the end heavily resembles "I'm So Afraid", which is another song that I'm very fond of.

Wow, great order. I'd switch Tusk for Heroes. But that's about it.

I only play accoustic guitar, so am not an expert, but some might think there ought to be a bit more finger action going on...

I guess it's kind of allowed, in the larger context of the show and the moment, so it's more of an observation than a criticism.
