Use this thread to express your hatred of "Don't Stop"...

Inspired by something David posted on AMFM over on Usenet, I'm creating this thread just so people can complain about "Don't Stop."

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't dislike the song on its own. And the Dance version with the marching band is really great.

But I think it totally ruins the flow of Rumours. It's not that it's a kooky upbeat shuffle; that's cool. I think it's mostly that it's a kooky upbeat shuffle with lyrics that belong in a self-help program more than on a rock album. Chris' other contributions to the album are so perfect, but Rumours sets such a perfect desperate mood with the sequence of the first three songs... and then it all comes crashing down in a barrage of tinkling piano and "Hey, you can do it!" lyrics. Good thing we've got "Go Your Own Way" right after it to thrust us right back into the swing of things.
