I NEVER NEVER get tired of this song. probably right behind Songbird in my Christine top list of songs. thoughts? also I cant remember, did it make the top 10 or 20?

Top 20, I believe. I love it too. It always puts me in a good mood, and I love Lindsey's "Ow!"

TAM has ALWAYS been one of my top 5 FM songs. I can't understand why it's not more popular. It rocks! And yeah, the "ow" rules.

"Think About Me" got up to #20 on the Billboard singles chart. It probably would have done better, but I think unfortunately alot of people were just turned off by Tusk by the time the single was released. I think it's one of Fleetwood Mac's most underrated songs. It's another great Christine/Lindsey collaboration. It's my second favorite Chris song on Tusk.

Actually, I think some of that was due to it really not going over all that well live. Either the band wasn't all that thrilled about playing it, or the audience reaction wasn't up to the bands' expectations or something. When I saw 'em play it the last two nights of the Tusk tour at the Hollywood Bowl, it was really lackluster. Which disappointed me, because I hear it being a real crowd-grabber, like "Say You Love Me" or "Don't Stop".

Great tune. I actually really love the outtake version off of Tusk Remastered, Disc 2, Track 3.

This is one song that pops in my head and I'll just sing it wherever I am.

Awesome song. I am surprised it never got more airplay too. Catchy lyrics and music.

I like it a lot. It has the perfect mix of rock and pop. I do think, however, that Lindsey overpowers Chris in the song....kinda like he shoved his way into a Chris song and threw her off the stage.

He really does seem to overpower her. I thought the same thing was going on in "Hold Me" until I really listened to it. He definitely does take over the demo version on the second disc of the Tusk re-issue.

I think that Tusk is a great album, so underrated! Right up there Rumours , it ranks for me! For me, Lindsey did what he set out to do!

Which is exactly why I like it.

I think it's one of Christine's best. I love it.

I'll agree with you about the demo version on disc #2 of the Tusk re-issue.

But, I've never thought that he "overpowered" her on the album version of "Think About Me". I've never actually heard anyone say that until this thread.

I think their voices blend together just about right on the album version.

I can hear it, though. I think towards the end Lindsey definately seems to take the song over. It starts out as a Christine song, but by when they hit the "so let yourself go, let love begin" line, it becomes more of a duet, with Lindsey being a bit more present. Not that I think that's a BAD thing.
