Songs Christine should have/could have wrote
There are two songs that I always think of Christine when I hear them. Both lyrically, vocally, melodically and topically, they reek of her style. Her voice is so suited to them. Even by just looking at the lyrics -- which are simple and sparse, but yet impactful -- you could swear that she wrote them:
DAY AFTER DAY by Badfinger I remember finding out about you Everyday my mind is all around you Looking out of my lonely room Day after day Bring it home, baby make it soon I give my love to you I remember holding you while you sleep Everyday I feel the tears that you weep Looking out of my lonely gloom Day after day Bring it home, baby make it soon I give my love to you LET ME ROLL IT by Paul McCartney & Wings You gave me something I understand You gave me love in the palm of my hand I can't tell you how I feel My heart is like a wheel Let me roll it Let me roll it to you Let me roll it Let me roll it to you I want to tell you And now's the time I want to tell you That you're going to be mine I can't tell you how I feel My heart is like a wheel Let me roll it Let me roll it to you Let me roll it Let me roll it to you "Let Me Roll It " even has some jarring guitar lines between the verses that are very similar to Lindsey's style.

"Days Gone Down" - Gerry Rafferty

I don't usually hear songs that I think Christine could have written, but I hear a number of them I think she should have sung. "Smile" from Laura Nyro is a good example; as is "Lost"--the opening track on Dusty Springfield's "Brand New Me" album. I always thought she could do a great version of Barbara Lewis's "Baby I'm Yours" with a hundred Christine's backing up her lead vocal. Sometimes my mind wanders. |

If it doesn't have any celestial imagery (suns, stars, moon, etc.), then it doesn't seem like Christine to me at all.

Bread - Everything I Own
You sheltered me from harm. Kept me warm, kept me warm You gave my life to me Set me free, set me free The finest years i ever knew Were all the years i had with you I would give anything i own, Give up me life, my heart, my home. I would give everything i own, Just to have you back again. You taught me how to love, What its of, what its of. You never said too much, But still you showed the way, And i knew from watching you. Nobody else could ever know The part of me that can't let go. I would give anything i own, Give up me life, my heart, my home. I would give everything i own Just to have you back again. Is there someone you know, You're loving them so, But taking them all for granted. You may lose them one day, Someone takes them away, And they don't hear the words you long to say I would give anything i own, Give up me life, my heart, my home. I would give everything i own Just to have you back again. |

Sounds more like a Lucky Charms commercial.

Total Control By The Motels with a piano solo in stead of saxofone...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLBZjdrKSpY Looking counter clockwise Knowing what could happen Any moment maybe you maybe even you Steadfast collapse Always certain any moment Maybe you maybe you Maybe even you Recline complete dream too sweet I can't do it not with you Not even with you Maybe never with you And I'd sell my soul for Total control Yeah I'd sell my soul for Total control Street wet tonight, lovers touch It's pure delight Always certain any moment Maybe even you Stay in bed stained sheets My head hurts I repeat Maybe you maybe you maybe even you And I'd sell my soul for Total control Yeah I'd sell my soul for Total control Ooh I'd sell my soul for Total control over you Over you Total control over you

Wow...The Motels! What a blast from the past! I recall them from my college days in the eighties, but I didn't get too familiar with them. However, that clip peaked my interest.
I would never equate that song with Christine's more conservative style -- especially the overt "stained sheets" lyric! Very interesting!!
