Don't Say That You Love Me: The TUSK Poll.

xxxxpost:

Well, if you truly believe that it's a better composition/song than 'Don't Stop', 'Songbird' or even 'Oh Daddy' (which is my least favourite song on Rumours by some considerable distance) then, y'know, you're entitled to think that, as utterly batshit as that stance is. Nobody, absolutely nobody sees a copy of Tusk and thinks "fuck me! I just have to listen to 'Honey Hi'"! 'Sara', undoubtedly. 'Walk A Thin Line', 'That's All For Everyone' ... yeah, I could see it. 'Honey Hi'? No fucking way. Inessential, airy fluff at best.

0 votes for 'Think About Me' ... what's that all about, then? It's McVie's second best song on the record after 'Over and Over'

"Airy fluff", yes - done perfectly.

"Honey Hi" sounds like waking up refreshed and in love with somebody

also known in physics textbooks as the McVie Dictum

McVie's tracks on Tango In The Night, though, are mostly awesome. Trying to imagine that record without 'Little Lies' and 'Everywhere' is just impossible.

As for underrated Mac albums, then Bare Trees would be my pick. I've always thought that one deserves more attention than it gets.

Zero votes for Never Forget is a sin

this is the most mind-bendingly WTF poll I've encountered here. these results makes more sense read from bottom to top than top to bottom for me.

THIS. How the hell did "Think About Me," "Not That Funny," and "Save Me A Place" for chrissakes get ZERO VOTES??!!

Also, "Sara" is great but "Storms" is superior in every way

ILM u mad

Also this is a front-loaded album if ever there was one. I pretty much tune out after "Sisters," though I usually skip ahead and jam "Walk A Thin Line," which is beautiful

the idea that any McVie track on Tusk is worse than "Oh Daddy" hurts my brain

Fuck, I meant Walk a Thin Line, which did fine! Sorry...

Also, "Sara" is great but "Storms" is superior in every way

thinking about these songs in this way misses the point of both I think. "storms" is a gorgeous, sad ballad. "sara" is a miraculous structure

"Honey Hi" rules. Great circular chord changes. Wonderful rocking chair of a song

protip for life--listen to honey hi first thing in the morning and u will have a mellow-ass day

speaking of mellow, "Over and Over" is a shot of pure uncut heroin str8 into the mainline. How is this a perennial front runner in "best album opener" discussions, but places in the middle of the pack here?

worst poll

yeah i mean 'Tusk' is easily the worst song on the album

Wait there, Tusk song is a restless volcano. Do not diss it.

'Tusk' is great and you're wrong. Although OTM about 'Honey Hi' being "rocking chair" music, just not in the way that you intended.

'Tusk' is great but it's my least favorite song on the record. Maybe it's just overexposure. And honestly Lindsey bugs me on that one.

uuuuunnggggggghhhhh

The right answer is beautiful child!

just discovered this album last week. so good.

"Save Me a Place" got robbed.

fuck i wish i could hear "That's All for Everyone" for the first time again. i completely burned that one out. i think i listened to it 500 times in a single year

Insane that "Sisters Of The Moon" only got one vote.

Intense silence
as you entered the thread

all the various versions of "I Know I'm Not Wrong" on the deluxe set are a pleasure to listen to
