Just listened to landslide after not hearing it for a while and it has touched my soul again.

What’s your fave Fleetwood Mac song and why?

You are allowed to choose a Stevie nicks solo instead if you have a really good reason.

Gold dust woman still stands up really well
Lindsey doing Big love solo, however, is off the scale

SmallPrawnEnergy · 05/03/2022 17:50

Rattlesnake Shake.
Their earlier stuff is way way better than anything post rumours imo but they will be an unpopular opinion.

Tusk. I think it came out when I was around 17, and FM were considered deeply uncool by my peers, but I Ioved it then and I love it still.

But also Seven Wonders (loved it in AHS) and Little Lies.

Oh yes songbird is lovely. Christine McVie had such an incredible voice too.

Rhiannon. Particularly if you hear Stevie sing it live when she was young. There used to be a great recording from the Old Grey Whistle Test, I think. She had the most amazing, powerful voice.
Oh I would so love to hear this.

My favourite is Landslide too. These lyrics make me cry.
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too

I like Sara and Family Man. FW reminds me of road trips as a kid.

Debroglie · 05/03/2022 17:57

Yes bickles I have sobbed my heart out to those lyrics today. There is so much contained in those words. I can’t even articulate how much they mean to me.

Gypsy is my favourite.

NotMyDayJob · 05/03/2022 18:00

Got to be Landslide. The lyrics are haunting. The Chicks do a great cover as well.

BurningTheToast · 05/03/2022 18:00

I love Gold Dust Woman and Tusk. And Isn't It Midnight.

The Chicks version of Landslide is great if you haven't heard it.

Agree 😢

Albatross. No vocals but lovely.

partyatnumberten · 05/03/2022 18:03

Gold dust woman is my favourite song in the world

MadMadMadamMim · 05/03/2022 18:03

@JTK392

This is a good version of her doing Rhiannon live.

Thurlow · 05/03/2022 18:04

Rhiannon and Sara, but I think their version of Songbird edges it for me.

KezzabellaB · 05/03/2022 18:04

Songbird. Love Christine Mcvie. Mind you I like Black Magic Woman too

sergeantmajormum · 05/03/2022 18:06

Another one for Songbird. Definitely one of my Desert Island Discs. Takes me back to being 19 and meeting my now husband.

JTK392 · 05/03/2022 18:06

Thanks @MadMadMadamMim I found a 1975 recording on Apple Music - very nice

OP sorry you going through a difficult time

bangaverage · 05/03/2022 18:07

The Chain is a banger. Edge of Seventeen is magnificent too.

bangaverage · 05/03/2022 18:08

(If it's good enough for Beyoncé it's good enough for me).

Joolsin · 05/03/2022 18:09

Oh Well and The Green Manalishi

Nesbo · 05/03/2022 18:20

Never going back again - my dream is to be able to play that on guitar.

Itstheprinciple · 05/03/2022 18:21

Rhiannon and most of the Rumours album. There is a fantastic video on You Tube of Rhiannon when Stevie Nicks hadn't long been with FM and its so ethereal and moving.

CassandraCross · 05/03/2022 18:21

Dreams is my absolute favourite, can't beat the line Players only love you when they're playing for cold hard truth.
