    This was played at my dear late wife's funeral. Then a few days later Christine McVie passed away. This song rips me to pieces and heals me.

      Christine was a true songbird. Her voice is near angelic and her songs are my Mac-favorites. I hope your changes /passing loss is eased.
      My heart-break song is Don Henley's 'Heart of the Matter'.... - "- And I thought of all the bad luck, the struggles we went through - how I lost me and you lost you ; what are these voices outside love's open door - - - -
      There are people in your life who've come and gone - they let you down, you know they hurt your pride , You better put it all behind you, 'cause life goes on' if you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside....
      I've been trying to get down to the Heart of the Matter , but my will gets weak - and my thoughts seem to scatter - but I think it's about forgiveness - Forgiveness." (and grace).....

      Stevie makes a good back up singer. This Gal was the person who held this band together and made them sound professional. Really I think Stevie was good for the band, but in my estimation, not even remotely the talent of Christy.

    • @EastSide-qc5oy
      @EastSide-qc5oy 6 місяців тому +5

      ⁠@@Comet-hn3gm Back up singer? What nonsense. All 5 members were crucial to the band’s success. You can celebrate Christine’s great talent without making silly statements like the one with the most successful solo career is really just a “back up singer.”

    • @EastSide-qc5oy
      @EastSide-qc5oy 6 місяців тому +5
