Default Christine “rockers”

Christine’s songwriting usually fits into one of two categories: the piano-driven ballad or the mid-tempo pop tune. Occasionally, she has written/recorded up-tempo, guitar-driven rockers. I’m trying to think of them (and not confuse them with the mid-tempo “up” tunes. It’s not easy!

This is what I think might fit:

Morning Rain
Homeward Bound
Believe Me
Bad Loser
YMLF (possibly)
Think About Me
Love Will Show Us How
One in a Million
Isn’t it Midnight
Save Me
Temporary One
Liar
Too Far Gone
Slow Down

Thoughts? Any I missed? Any I got wrong?

Good list. I would add Too Much Is Not Enough.


I'm The One is a rocker on her solo album but she did not write it

Do co-writes count? What about World Turning?

Funny, I thought of both of those. I’d definitely count World Turning. She didn’t write “I’m the One” but it is guitar-driven.

I agree that most of her songs fit either category but there is a rare third category like Behind The Mask. Its definitely not a peppy love song or rocker. Its a dark song.

Looking back at the video, it's kind of genius and hilarious. The LOEV dancers are cute and clever.
