MOR classics - Fleetwood Mac, where now?

Despite revering lots of less popular music too, I have always been a sucker for the supremely well-written MOR song, one which transcends its sonic limitations and becomes truly transcendent. Recently I have been caning 'Little Lies' and 'Dreams' by Fleetwood Mac, and 'Careless Whisper' has always crept on me unexpectedly (in an emotional sense). As I believe the philosopher Mariah Carey once said (and indeed, 'We Belong Together', for all its nu RnB trappings, was essentially MOR of the highest order), "Everyone needs schmaltz sometimes."

Welcome to ILM, brother. We hope you will find peace here.

P.S. Don't call it "schmaltz"

I didn't. Mariah did.

That's pretty out of order. Fat-titted bitch, if you please.

Everywhere. Classic Mac.

MOR still sounded a lot better when done by Toto or Foreigner though. Not to mention ABBA.

Google "Steely Dan" and "Fleetwood Mac" separately. You are, indeed, home.

Whoops! Not Google, Search (at the bottom of the page).
