Put those two songs in a women only survey, and a majority of the percentage will favor the Nicks tune, whereas the outcome would be the opposite for an all male survey.
Meh. I dig them both pretty hard. But I went and listened to some of their earlier albums, like the self titled and Then Play On, and while they're cool, I don't see them as anything other bands haven't done better. Rumours-era Mac is far superior.
