Could I Don't Wanna Know be classed as a Stevie song? Anyhoo, I voted for Gold Dust Woman. Tis one of my constantly played Mac songs
And it's too bad Silver Springs isn't eligible. Would have definitely voted for that, obviously hehe.

Gave my vote to Gold Dust Woman. Not crazy about I Don't Wanna Know, I hate Dreams with a passion and besides, who doesn't think Gold Dust Woman from the Japan show is awesome?

I voted too hastily. I meant to vote for Dreams, but that's OK. I love all three of these songs. Dreams is the one to which I refer most often. I voted I Don't Want to Know because I wish there were more songs like this in the Mac catalogue. And it's powerfully profound.

Gold dust Woman for sure. I just love the whole vibe. Stevie in top form. On the Rumours classic album DVD when Lindsey is showing this song, He isolates Stevie's vocal in the outro. She is doing some scary inhuman things with her voice Anyway perfect song.

Dreams. It is quite possibly the most tired of all the Fleetwood Mac songs, except maybe Oh Well, but the version on The Dance is still amazing.

Those be fightin' words!! It's still BY FAR the best song in the 43 year history of the band.


I voted GDW...but, I have to say, after being MAJORLY (understatement) burnt out on "Dreams" for, oh, about 30 years, I gained new appreciation of the song this past weekend when at my band's reunion gig (playing our first show in 32 years) played it UNREHEARSED* with a guest female singer and just NAILED IT...spot on background vocals, too!

*Meaning, the band didn't rehearse the song at all...on top of THAT, we were only introduced to the female singer as she stepped up to the microphone!

Well Gold Dust Woman is greater than the credit I give it (and I give it LOTS actually), so... GDW will be it.

It seems like that Gold Dust Woman is gonna win by a landslide (no pun intended, besides it's the wrong album)

Exclamation Quick note about "Silver Springs"

Don't forget "Silver Springs" will be eligble later on in a battle that features Stevie's *other* songs, i.e. "Fireflies," "No Questions Asked," etc.

I just said it is possibly the most tired, I didn't say anything about the quality of the song....yet
