Wacky Lyrics TusK

Sick to Death of Tusk

What the Hell were they Thinking? The Whole Project really specifically, Though.....Honey Hi

Much better live I think Over and Over

Should have been cut for a single Album As Insane as it is....Tusk was meant to be a double

Overall Least Favorite Brown.....freakin'....Eyes. Hate this song. Don't understand the praise it gets. God awful.

This is tough...I dunno if I can do this, b/c Tusk is an album where I like every song, and none of them have been so overplayed that I'm sick of them (like Don't Stop & Go Your Own Way from Rumours).

Wacky Lyrics - The Ledge; Tusk; most of LB's songs, I guess - but it's a good wacky.

Sick to death of - I'm not really sick of any of them.

What the hell were they thinking! - Can't say that about any of them.

Much better performed live - Sisters of the Moon, maybe.

Should've been cut for Tusk to be a single album - Shut your mouth!

Overall least favorite - Tusk

Wacky Lyrics - The Ledge, only because they’re so specific to describing Stevie
But if we’re including the extended Sara, that’s got to take it for the awesome cleaning lady opening. Let’s go down to the laundromat, maybe your lyrics are there.

Sick to death of – Not That Funny – feels like it’s half the Mirage concert DVD

What the hell were they thinking! – Over and Over – I have no problem with this song, but WTH were they thinking in opening a long album with such a snoozer?

Much better performed live - Angel

Should've been cut for Tusk to be a single album – That’s All for Everyone – it’s okay, but not distinct enough from Lindsey’s other stuff

Overall least favorite – Brown Eyes – pretty harmonies, but I just don’t like the melody

Wacky Lyrics - Tusk, The Ledge, Not That Funny (But wacky in a good way)

Much better performed live - Not That Funny

Should've been cut for Tusk to be a single album - Save Me a Place is the only song that should have been cut

Overall least favorite - Save Me a Place

Yep, I totally agree that it's a snoozer not only for a song, but as an opener for the album. I think Lindsey even said once (?) that the reason they opened with OAO was because they wanted to do a total 180 from what they'd done in the past; instead of opening with an up-tempo, poppy number, they'd start with a mellow, dreamy, flowy kind of thing. I think they (Lindsey) were trying to set a new feel for the album, but they were also trying to make a statement with this unconventional Mac start-off as an opener. In other words, I think Lindsey was going for something a bit symbolic here. I could be over-analyzing.

Wacky Lyrics - The Ledge

Sick to death of - None of it

What the hell were they thinking! - What Makes You Think You're The One, a little too under-produced

Much better performed live - Sisters of the Moon

Should've been cut for Tusk to be a single album - I think Tusk really has to be a double album but if it were a single album I would say KEEP the following:

side 1:
Tusk
Sara
That's All For Everyone
Think About Me
Walk A Thin Line
Sisters of the Moon
side 2:
Angel
Brown Eyes
Not That Funny
Over And Over
That's Enough For Me
Never Forget

These aren't what I would pick (I'd put all 5 Nicks songs on a single disc Tusk) but it's my best guess what Mac might have done.

Overall least favorite - What Makes You Think You're The One because it's way too under-produced, Never Make Me Cry because it's just very bland IMO.
