I have always liked The Chain with Lindsey and Little Big Town because Kimberly brought back the Christine harmony that had been missing. The FM back up singers never filled that gap. Certain songs just need layers. For instance, Beautiful Child worked wonderfully with Lindsey, Stevie and the singers taking different lines.
But some songs need both layering and the tension created by different vocal tones and that's what Christine's absence stripped from The Chain.
When Lindsey said that his harmony with Stevie was one thing and the harmony with Christine was something different altogether, I wanted him to elaborate. Yeah, it was different all right. Otherworldy.
