I had to go with side 2. Isn't it Midnight not only carries the album but shines on side 2. LMAO even with whatsamatta baby and welcome to the room.......Christine's best songs are side 2. Caroline is my least favorite song on the album.

Definitely Side One, only because Side Two has those two awful Stevie songs than ruin the whole thing.

Side one by a long shot although Little Lies and Isn't it Midnight are probably the two best songs. Gee, I just can't figure out Whasa matta baby with side two, maybe it was intended for Scarlett or the choir, sir?

IMO, the best songs on the album (“Little Lies” and “Isn’t It Midnight”) are on side two, but side one is hands down better overall. For one, it avoids the two Career-low Stevie duds, and Lindsey’s material is stronger on the first side.

I wouldn't be here if it weren't for Little Lies. That said, Stevie's two songs on side two are garbage and You And I, Part II is probably Lindsey's weakest Fleetwood Mac song. Side one, no question.

I feel like a salmon swimming up stream. Many say Christine had amazing Tango songs and her best songs are on side 2. I don't care what the other songs are. Christine's best songs are side 2. Nuff said

Where else can you hear amazing Lindsey guitar and a fake layered in Stevie voice. Its a match made in heaven. Side 2. And I haven't stared at the stairs at all.

Side one opening of BL, SW, E is just sublime for me. (recently drove through Hawaii and listened to Tango) It was perfect until Welcome, and When I See You on side 2.

I like both of those songs, they just didn't go with the scenery for me.

I'm such a big liar!!! hahaaha

I still like it. It just sticks out like a sore thumb. The album really flows with a sort of magical tone. And then the clunking of WTTRS commences.

Christine saves us with IIM, and then clunk clunk again.. Then the beautiful ending of You And I.

BTW You and I part 1 is so beautiful in Hawaii.
