      Same. I'm mostly into metal and hard rock, but I know a great song and songwriter when I hear one. And she was an AMAZING musician and songwriter. This song as an example....it's so simple, but it has so much emotion and feeling in it. RIP Christine, congrats on a life well lived.

    There’s something incredibly powerful and moving in her performance here. That aged, experienced, and fragile voice conveys this song in a way it didn’t when the song was released. Christine was our maternal, eternal songbird. She is missed.

    We ALL cry. I remember seeing FM on their last tour, and as she sang Songbird, her voice cracked from just growing to be her age....and yet the crowd....we all stood and you could actually FEEL everybody wishing her on. It was the most beautiful moment I've ever witnessed in a crowd, aside from Lindsey's incredible solo on I'm So Afraid.

    *Songbird*
    _Song by Christine McVee_
    For you, there'll be no more crying
    For you, the sun will be shining
    And I feel that when I'm with you
    It's alright, I know it's right
    To you, I'll give the world
    To you, I'll never be cold
    'Cause I feel that when I'm with you
    It's alright, I know it's right
    And the songbirds are singing,
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before
    And I wish you all the love in the world
    But most of all, I wish it from myself
    And the songbirds keep singing
    Like they know the score
    And I love you, I love you, I love you
    Like never before, like never before,
    Like never before
    Songwriters: Christine Mcvie

    I think this may have been the last time she performed Songbird publicly. She didn’t perform it on the 2019 FM tour or the 2017 LB/CM tour. I could be wrong. Regardless, this is my favorite song of hers and she will be missed.
