Mystery To Me Survivor: Rounds 1-2
Since we've already had survivors for Bare Trees & Penguin, I thought we would try one for Mystery To Me. This album seems to be a favorite of quite a few pre-Rumours line-up fans & even a few Buckingham/Nicks fans as well. I'm biased, but I think Mystery To Me is the best Fleetwood Mac album ever.
Here are the general rules, so to speak. I'll add up the votes each morning when I first log on to the Ledge. If there's a tie, I'll leave it open until someone breaks the tie. There will be no immunity questions, just vote your least favorite song off. Here are the songs: Emerald Eyes Believe Me Just Crazy Love Hypnotized Forever Keep On Going The City Miles Away Somebody The Way I Feel For Your Love Why |
Round 1- For Your Love
Yay! :blob1: :blob2:
Okay, I'm voting for "For Your Love" because it's the only song on the album that I never have liked. |
'Somebody' needs to go.
-Lis |
Miles Away
I like Miles Away, but something's got to go first.
|
Round 1: The Way I Feel
If there even comes CLOSE to a weak spot on this album, "The Way I Feel" is it...but that is only by close scrutiny & default. This album is just TOO good...there's no way that this "Survivor" is going to end on a good note; I fear the fall-out. :shrug:
|
Round 1: The City
Just don't care for this song, but it's probably the only one, so that's pretty dang good.
|
Round 1 - The Way I Feel
Not a favorite.
|
For Your Love
Wow this is hard. I love this album.
|
round 1: Somebody
Yay! This will be a great survivor :woohoo:
"Somebody" just irritates me. |
for your love
because it's a cover that is nothing more than "coming close" to the original.
PS: I ADORE the City!!!! |
Round & Round #1: "The Way I Feel".

I can't conceal that I don't really like The Way I Feel.

:eek: No way Bare Trees is superior (IMHO) :shrug: ...it has "Thoughts On A Grey Day" that excludes it, right there. :) Plus, Mystery To Me has 3 more songs of higher quality than anything on Bare Trees...mo' music, mo' music, mo' music. :nod: |
I guess, for me, the vibe of Bare Trees is so different from Mystery To Me. I couldn't imagine living without Sunny Side Of Heaven, Sentimental Lady, Spare Me A Little, Dust, Emerald Eyes, Believe Me, Hypnotized, Miles Away, and Why. OTOH, I COULD live without Danny's Chant, Thoughts On A Grey Day, The City, and The Way I Feel. I will say that these are the two best from the Welch years, BY FAR.
|
I can't believe there are people who don't like "The Way I Feel"! :eek:
And Mary Anne, what on earth are you doing trying to vote off like, the third best song on the album in the first round??? :eek: :sorry: |

Round 1: The Way I Feel
This is going to be difficult. I adore Mystery To Me.
|
I love Christine's piano on "The City" very rapid and a bluesy style to her chord punching

In my book Bare Trees benefits from its extra diversity, having three actively participating songwriters. Plus Danny and Chris (albeit just having two songs on the album herself) are at the top of their games, and it features a Welch classic in "Sentimental Lady" which is on par to his one Mystery To Me classic, "Hypnotized", IMO. |

Round 2- Forever
Somebody's almost the best song on here. I cant beleive in two rounds no one's voted for this album's one weak link.
|
Forever. I agree with Hawkeye.
|
Round 2: Somebody
I'll go with Somebody this round. It looks like "For Your Love" may go this round. I think it's a very good cover of the Yardbirds original. I LOVE "Forever". It's so relaxed & laid back.
|
Round & Round #2: "The City".
Tappity tap.
