Not that I think that's a BAD thing.

I agree. Except I'm not sure it's not bad.

I agree the demo version totally becomes Lindsey's! However it is still a great tune...but I like Christine's touch on it a little better! I can say that safetly here with many Christine fans! haha

Woa....it's kinda weird in here. I've never been in this forum before. I saw the Think About Me thread and had to chime in and say that I love this song. It's on of the few Christine songs I can listen to repeatedly. Great tune

I love Think About Me. It's one of my favorite Chris songs.

I've always wondered why Lindsey was so prominent on Christine's songs. I posted a thread about this on the Rumours forum a while back. It just seemed odd to me how her songs - Think About Me, Hold Me, Don't Stop - were more like duets. Maybe it was because their voices blended so well together. In fact, when I first became a fan of FM, I never noticed that Christine sang the second verse of Don't Stop. That's how much their voices sounded the same (to my ears anyway).

When I saw 'em play it the last two nights of the Tusk tour at the Hollywood Bowl, it was really lackluster.

Really? On the boot of the Hollywood Bowl 8/31/80, I thought it sounded great. Personally, of all the boots I've listened to, I thought it sounded awesome. But, then, TAM is one of my favorite songs, so maybe that's why.

Whew! Good to know that wasn't just me. When my best friend first introduced me to FM via the Green Album (I was a big Stevie solo fan at the time, and she was like "You have to hear FM; they're better than Stevie solo." So, she plays me "Gypsy," "Everywhere," "You Make Lovin' Fun," "Go Your Own Way," "Little Lies," and "Hold Me." I automatically loved "Gypsy" and "Everywhere," and I was all like "Who's singing "Everywhere"? Is that Christine or Lindsey?" She rolled her eyes. "It's Christine. Can't you tell it's a girl?" I said, "They both sound like guys to me." So, we went through all of those songs. "Hold Me" confused the hell out of me at first. "How do I know who's who?" My best friend was so frustrated! "I never thought Christine sounded like a guy," she insisted. She thought I was crazy.

Wow, I'm glad my essays and research papers aren't filled with so much "And I was like," "And she was like"

Count me in as another who thinks that Lindsey and Christine's voices are eerily similar. But I usually love their collaborations - WT, Think About Me, Isn't it Midnight, etc. I especially love Tango in the Night because of the McBuck vibe.

SteveMacD · #24 09-30-2005, 06:57 PM

Count me in, too. To this day, I still find it impossible to tell who's who on "Farmer's Daughter."

AliP · #25 10-02-2005, 02:04 PM

So why do you think that their voices sound so similar? Is it that Christine has a masculine singing voice or is it that Lindsey has a feminine singing voice?? I'm going to go with the later.

SortaSavageLike · #26 10-02-2005, 05:06 PM

It took a while, but this song really grew on me.

I prefer it over YMLF. Then again, I like SYLM and Hold Me better than YMLF, too.

I think it's both. She's manly, and he's girly. I'll bet she could kick his ass...

Seriously, on all counts.

Me too! I think the L/C collaborations are awesome!
