    The song is so closely associated with the movie that what might get overlooked is that it’s a really good and interesting pop tune, showcasing Buckingham’s unique 80s “Post New Wave meets The Beach Boys” style. He really had his own sound, which also sometimes got diluted by the collaborative nature of Fleetwood Mac.

      I think the reason why was because of the Fairlight synthesizer which was a BIG deal at the time. It was the first sampling keyboard that came out in the early 80's and they were VERY expensive. Some artists wanted to show off that they had one, so they would put some weird sample sound in a song.. (Michael Jackson, Peter Gabriel, Yes, etc) all had one.

    I'll always fondly remember my dad playing this song when we went on holiday driving through France on route to Spain. It's imprinted upon my childhood holiday memories. Such happy times in the 90's.

    I was today years old when I learned that Lindsay Buckingham sang this song, thanks to having the captions on while watching The Bear.

    I feel like this is homage to 50s rock. Short, Simple lines and easy guitar riffs. That’s all you need

      The quick echo on the vocals is probably making you think of the fifties

      @@Marcel_Audubon the guitar and echo vocal effect, as well as the harmonies, are certainly influenced by 50s rock, doo-wop and so on, but not a direct imitation, rather a continuation. this is obvious.

    I kind of like that it's a dark video. It DOES fit it. The song is not about some family driving across the country in a movie, it's about how work is a prison that keeps us from playing outside.

      Even the place I work has this logo on the stoves where they cook gravy it says : Wolf and has a picture of a red Devil/Satan. Reminds me of the dog barking at the end of this song or that song The dog days are over by Florence + The Machine and also that song back on the chain gang by the Pretenders - Raylene Price

    Love the guitar work on this track. It's such a fun little song, but there's some great work in it. Another overlooked classic from L.B.

      I agree 100%! Have loved it for years and thought it was almost wasted on a Chevy Chase flick! I guess it's iconic and memorable though and if LB is happy then so am I.

    Lindsey is an insane talent. He was amazing in concert. He did not play this song.
