Regarding As Long As you Follow, where I lived at the time, it was played on the radio constantly, and I’m pretty sure it hit #1 on Billboard’s Adult Comtemporary Chart, and it did go to #58 or something like that on Billboard’s Top 100. But yeah, like you I was stunned it didn’t perform better. It was also a nice song for the wintertime. But since it’s on their Greatest Hits album, it’s become a popular song so that’s cool!
Chris says here they are happy. She goes on to say something like Lindsey was miserable and if he would have stayed, we all would have been miserable. So with him leaving it was a happy exit for both parties.
We just had no idea at this time all that Lindsey went through in 1986 with some members of the band.
They yield to Billy about the Orange Blossom as if it was his idea. He says because they all are from California it made sense. Then Stevie brings up about Chris's mom telling her she would find something in an orange grove.
