Christine McVie, keyboardist for Fleetwood Mac, delivers another hit song for the band with You Make Loving Fun. Her distinct vocal runs, tone, and phrasing make it a uniquely Christine song while still maintaining the Fleetwood Mac vibe. It's exciting to hear how the individual differences in style remain consistent to the whole. After her recent breakup with bassist John, sharing inspiration for song ideas must have been awkward. Christine, being focused on the goal of putting out a good album, knew how to spin the truth in order to move the process along. Was this song really about her dog or was it about the lighting engineer she was seeing? You tell me.
