It’s almost eerie.

Thats lazy program directors. Stevie was considered a rock artist and Edge of 17 and SDMHA are standards on those stations. They really dont touch much else in her career. Same with Fleetwood Mac. The White Album and Rumours are played every day yet nothing else is dared touched.

Through most of the 1990's and the first decade of this century it was Stand Back getting all the airplay. Now that song seems to have dipped into obscurity.

Good. I think Stand Back has been played to death. And it's very dated sounding, too. Edge isn't.

Do you know when you’re measuring your steps and you look and say I only have to take one more flight of stairs today to make my goal and you easily do it? If I got to 10 PM and I hadn’t heard a Mac song yet, I would just go to my local drugstore to get a pint of Thrifty ice cream and I bet I would hear a Mac song playing in the Rite Aid.

It was 10 cents a single scoop when I was a kid.

Hey Pop Pop, did you have Rumours on one of those cylinders on your Gramophone?

Don’t be jelly just because we have cheap ice cream here in California.

I hear that your milkshakes bring all the bois to the yard...

edit - Without paying attention, I was ASSuming that John wrote that comment, so my response was intended for him. How are your milkshakes?

The Milkshake lyrics alone offer me so many possible responses.

And yet Stevie will still take credit for your lyrics!

Was in the car listening to the alternate version of “Show Me A Smile” the other day. I stopped at a service station for some Diet Coke and heard “Over My Head” on the radio in the store. It hit me how those two songs are definitely siblings—or at least seemed like it when I heard them back to back.

You may be right, but I love SYLM, as one of my all time favorite songs and I dislike Show Me a Smile. Michele

I never got into trouble, although I should have! I'd remove the woofers from my stereo speakers, and I kept a case of beer stored inside one, and had "weed starts" with a grow light going inside the other one!

I never got in FM trouble either, although I hated myself years later for giving away all my FM 8 tracks. I did recently find Rumours on 8 track, but what are the odds that I'll ever find Tusk? Slim to none...
