Some of have speculated it's about a possible Christine/Lindsey romance while they were recording her '84 solo album.

Not to sound like a particular dumb blonde, but I must say, "That's hot."

Now wait a minute. 1984 was around the time when Chris & Eddy first started getting hot & heavy. I don't think Lindsey spent much time with her making that album, maybe a week or two. The only Chris/Lindsey rumor that I've heard was around Mirage time...and I don't believe that one.

Those two . . . hmmm. . . .

When she said, "It's never been so gratifying" in People mag in '80, the tendency was to assume that it was Dennis Wilson she was talking about. But maybe it was Lindsey!

I don't really think they had any kind of romance, but I wouldn't be surprised if they took a roll or two in the hay.

Heh heh. Not to completely piss off the SnL fans, but I've always thought the same thing. I guess it goes back to my obssession with the "Hold Me" video!

Lindsey and I were hanging out in the shhhtudio, and I was gonna bugger off, but I said, "hold me" and he shtooped me right there on the mixing board. Isn't that weird.

Oh. Yeah, well, ok. They WERE kind of hit & miss early on. Try and get a version from the 1990 tour...you'll be "Wow-ing" in no time.

By the way, I've also loved that lyric, "Do you remember, the face of a pretty girl".

I agree: The live version of "Midnight" is the strongest performance on the Tango live set with Burnette and Vito...

Here's a copy of "Isn't It Midnight" from the 1990 BTM tour. It's from Manchester, one of the very few boots I have from this tour. By the way, I didn't have a problem with the way they did on the Tango tour either. I just think this song worked great live on both tours.
