Agreed. Something about the song seems so contrived, too. Stevie talked about wanting to make a real, straightforward rock and roll song on the Tusk documentary (Angel was supposed to be this). And what came out was a gangly, boring mess.

That's All For Everyone, no contest here.

I would have picked Angel next, over Never Make Me Cry.

This is quite possibly the easiest poll I have voted on. Never Make Me Cry.

I love the other two.

I bought the single Tusk the day it was released in September, 1979 and the B-side was Never Make Me cry. I loved Tusk, the single and despised NMMC, the B-side. I was worried the album might not be that good because of this Christine song.

I don't understand all the hate for That's all For Everyone. To me this is one of the standout tracks on Tusk. It's lush and it's dreamy. I love the way Lindsey sings backup for himself. Those layered vocals really can put me in a dazed trance. I totally love this song!

I voted for Never Make Me Cry. I love Angel and That's All For Everyone.

I think over-all Christine was the weakest link of the songwriters on Tusk.

Agreed. Its one of my favorite songs on the album. I picked NMMC, but Angel was a close second.
