obvious).

Just curious to what "extreme" I represent?
I've said good and bad about both Stevie and
Lindsey. I do try to keep my post positive if
possible.
The point of my original post was to suggest that the extreme viewpoint of Kennation's posts support the belief others have that Stevie's fans are obsessed. Your omitting a good portion of my original quote and replacing the pronoun of lower case "her", with Stevie's name makes it seem as if I said that Stevie's fans are obsessed and nuts. That combined with your statement "You said it" made me feel you represented the extreme of those who lump all of her fans into that category.

So, yes, Stevie may be responsible for WRITING the only #1 song FLEETWOOD MAC has ever had, but she has yet to hit #1 as a solo artist, so this point is sort of moot!

Nation will be back to say that Stevie actually wrote the melody blah blah for Dreams, so she deserves most of the credit.
Nevermind the fact that she plunked it out on her portable keyboard thing and that day played it for FM and Lindsey. I am sure LB had much to do with defining that song. So I totally agree with you, the whole topic is moot.

I'm still traumatized by being forced by my music teacher to play "You Light up my Life" on piano...

There's a little snip of Stevie playing & singing "Dreams" by herself on a piano in the 1998 DVD on the making of "Rumours."

It's very ... nice ... but it isn't exactly what had the whole nation hypnotized in 1977.

(Of course, the same could be said for dozens of Mac tracks written by the other members. It's a question we fans have often asked, in so many words: Does the song or does the track have the alchemy? I've always been a proponent of the latter.)

I loved that little bit of her playing it at the piano, and would really like to hear a scaled down version of it. I also remember the part of that documentary where Ken is at the mixing board playing all the different layers of the song, and it just amazes me how it sounds with all of those elements, and every member of the band together.

Nope, not at all. I think you may be right. I wouldn't consider myself "obsessed" with Stevie or the rest of the band, but I have friends who think I am. If only I could get them to visit the Ledge! LOL!
