Christine songs on new Mac Tour

[Ulpian]

Apologies if this has been posted, or discussed anew, recently.

I read this in an interview with Stevie, from June:

"Actually, Lindsey and I will be taking some of the songs that Christine sang on record, and we will be sharing the vocals," said Nicks. "After all, we wrote most of them anyway, and we feel it was best for us to do them instead of bringing someone else in to take her place. We want to show her our respect, and include her in the show, because she was such an important part to our group."

This is for the proposed '09 Mac tour.

Any ideas what they might include? I don't know whether she's just referring to Don't Stop and World Turning, or whether we might get to hear the version of YMLF they seemed to be rehearsing/trying out before the SYW tour in '03.

What does she mean, they wrote most of them anyway? Chris' vocal parts in their own songs, maybe, but is she alluding to writing You Make Loving Fun? Odd.

I wondered about that too. But then, occasionally I read a Stevie interview and some of the stuff she mentions about songs isn't always, um, accurate.

I would hope that if they are including some Christine material they'll drop World Turning; much as I love the song, it wasn't the same without Chris. The SN/LB version of Don't Stop I could just about hack. (Plus, it's really too iconic a track to leave out.)

I think perhaps SYLM or YMLF would be nice.

I wouldn't mind them doing some Christine songs on the next tour. In fact that would be a way for Christine to participate with minimum effort. all she has to do is phone Stevie before the tour starts and teach her the words to any of her songs Stevie might be planning to sing. Simple!

Actually I would mind if they did You Make Lovin Fun and if anyone else sang Songbird I may get up and walk out.

I agree about Songbird, but don't think they'd go that far. I wonder why YMLF was picked as a possible SYW tour song? It doesn't strike me as fitting Lindsey or Stevie's voice, though I know he said it was his favourite Chris song.

I would love to see Stevie do Little Lies
