This one is easier, Mad about The Boy, Blue For You and Ease Your Mind. They just dont stack up against the others.

BFU, easy your mind and that's a fact. I like that's a fact and think BFU is well done. Even ease your mind is an enjoyable performance, especially in the instrumental bits. Great album

Listening to that really good Dutch cover of Mad About The Boy reminds me of what a good song it is/was as an original on BFY. Another reason I can't vote for this one is because I had a cassette recording of it from the lunchtime album chart show on R1 when BFY was No 1
My sister and I always used to record the singles and album charts shows with a microphone wired from the cassette player next to the stereo speakers
I had that cassette for so long I still remember Johnny Walker introducing MATB as song choice from the album and saying " third week at No 1 for Status Quo...and Blue For You!" letsrock
As for the topic choices - haven't a clue!  |

MATB, EYM,and TAF. A lot easier to vote on than the previous albums but I'd be surprised if Mystery Song gets a vote though.

I am in complete agreement with most of you: Blue, Ease and Mad about the boy.
Leave 'That's a Fact' alone, it is brilliant.

The beginning of the end. The weakest Frantic Four album.

A no brainier this time: BFY, TAF and EYM, and if there's no more space on the C60, I will sacrifice MATB too.

That's A Fact is a great song - cleverly constructed and enough grit to sit nicely amongst its barnstorming peers
I'm going to go against the grain here and choose both ITABW and Rain. Simply because they never transferred across Live quite as well as on the album, but much more crucially because CQ reduced them to a lower denominator and ridiculously over exposed them. Rain became a Stars on 45 clap along and nothing like the barnstormer it is on the album
I'll also choose the title song which is still pleasant and very listenable but lacks a certain something, and not include EYM because it provides some nice light and shade to the album and somehow fits perfectly in contrast to the classic Mystery Song.

I chose Ease Your Mind, Blue For You (both nice little songs, but nice ain't great, is it?) and, please forgive me, Rain. Never been too keen on it, neither live nor on record. So that was an easy one for me.
