Warm Ways rocks!!!

[diamondsnake]

I would like to make an official statement that Warm Ways is the most beautiful song FM has ever recorded. I never really cared for it, but I just listened to it on the remaster and it is so haunting and it just makes me smile. I can't help but be happy listening to it. I repeat- Warm Ways Rocks my world!!!

[DrummerDeanna]

I've always loved that song, it is one of my favorites on FM FM. I think I definitely prefer Christine's slower songs...though I also enjoy the more upbeat ones too

[xdreamsunwindx]

I love it. The arrangement is just gorgeous, and it's one of Christine's best vocals ever. It's a little too slow for my tastes (you could easily put me in a coma by playing this song, That's All For Everyone and Sara... They're all so slow.), but it's still a great song.

I thought Welcome to the Room Sara and The Second Time were the best songs according to you. Going by my theory, you must rate Empire State as Lindsey's best work! Warm Ways is nice but its disturbingly hypnotic. Not in a sexy way like Brown Eyes, but in a very drowsy, snoozy way.

ITA!! I popped the CD in on the way home from my grandmother's house one evening and dang, that song just makes ya sleepy! It's an okay song, not a fave of mine tho.

BWAH!! Perhaps, Christine was going for the whole hypnosis thing.

*swinging a pocketwatch in front of John* she sings, "Sleeeeep, easy by my side....into gentle slumber, you can hide..."

Warm Ways is a great song. What does everything have to be fast. I love That's all for everyone too. Beautiful Harmonies.

Ah, you've got Christy there! lol

Christy - Yes - I had the pocket-watch imagery too! lol. Maybe John broke it off and that's how they came up with 'Never Break the Chain'. :P

"Warm Ways" is one that took me some time to warm up to. Maybe if it weren't the second track on the album, I would have warmed up to it quicker... but 'Fleetwood Mac' starts off with the rousing, toe-tapping "Monday Morning," and then BAM! "Warm Ways" lulls you into that "gentle slumber."

Still, there's no denying it's a beautiful song, and one of Christine's finest.

I seem to relate this song to the warm summer nights of my youth. I used to listen to the radio a LOT, driving around with friends, etc. makes me wonder if some radio station used to play it. And that song that goes "Yes it's summer... my time of year" - who was that? Was it War?

Anyway, Warm Ways is a great song - and Brown Eyes. I love to sing along to them. I'm liking them more these days because of the reissues too, maybe even a bit more than Songbird.. In fact, I prefer these three songs over some of the pop-ier ones like Don't Stop... but BLECH.

I love "Warm Ways". It's a beautiful lullaby, great vocals. It's sort of similar to "Brown Eyes". I love pretty much all of Christine's "slow" songs.

"Warm Ways" is a song that you grow into. When I was younger, I didn't much care for it. Now, that I'm a little older, I love the melody, soothing sounds, and haunting vocals. It is just beautiful!

I think this song got a huge boost from the re-mastering. The keyboards are so gentle like the lyrics. And the vocals are pristine! I never liked it in slot #2, but really there's no where else to put it.

Yes! That’s when I really took notice of this pretty, pretty number. On the new FLEETWOOD MAC reissue.

Christine McVie is a superior tunesmith -- as Lindsey Buckingham is.
With Nightingale-voiced McVie’s glittering ivories highlights, Buckingham’s two romantic guitars and Fleetwood’s subtle ocean-wave cymbal simulation, I feel a dose of cozy Fleetwood Mac chemistry here.....and a warm tropical breeze on an island......far....far....away.......

Rocks????



I like the song, but I wouldn't say that it rocks.... If I were thinking of a Christine song that rocked, it would be "Think About Me"- now that song RAWKS!!
