![Teen Reacts To Fleetwood Mac - Silver Springs (Official Live Video) [HD]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/26uaXwBlXFY/mqdefault.jpg)
The reason Rumors was such a great album was because of the tension in the band. Stevie and Lindsey broke up. John and Christine's marriage was over. Mick Fleetwood's marriage also ended. Christine wrote "You Make Lovin Fun" about one of the lighting techs. Stevie started seeing Mick(the drummer). Then Mick cheated on Stevie with her best friend Sara. They were all young, had some money, and were all sleeping around, and doing a lot of coke. Basically every song on the album is about another band member. Dreams is about Lindsey. Go Your Own Way is Lindsey's message to Stevie. Rumors is the greatest Pop Rock album ever made. It's because the drama, the feelings, and the people involved were all real. They all lived through it. And they cared enough about the music to finish the album and not let the personal hell they were living through get in the way. As a work of art, it's a masterpiece. There's nothing phony or fake about it.
Johnathon beat me to it. IIRC, "Rumors" was the biggest record they ever had, and one of the biggest records of all time. They didn't splinter, they wrote the songs and did the work. I'll admit, though - after the dang thing made so much money, a lot of their reaction was kind of '..oh, I guess we're stuck with each other now..' 😉
Stevie and Mick had an affair starting with the Rumours Tour that went on for almost 2 years after he had remarried Jenny and at the time she was dating Henley, Paul Fishkin and other guys. Oh and still in her words getting drunk and getting with Lindsey from time to time. "I need to dedicate this tonight to Lindsey, & he knows why -- He's my one true love for now & for always. It's called LANDSLIDE." - UCLA Oct. 4, 1977 (Rumours Tour) ... Sara was a friend she met when having an affair with Sara's husband Jim Recor. Recor is the one that told Stevie in 1979 that Sara had moved in with Mick. Mick dumped Stevie but not before going over to Lindsey's 3 days before and telling Lindsey about their long running affair. Meanwhile they had just started recording Tusk. If you thought recording Rumours was bad....
Nicely summarized. I lived through it but I’m grateful I didn’t need to explain it! 😂
@@michaelkeefe8494 They didn't go to HS in Michigan. The went to HS in the San Francisco Bay area of California.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee she has literally said dreams is the break up song. It was written for him to have the option to leave the relationship if he chose. (Her words). This song is her reflection song of the whole relationship.
Awkward? No. Musical genius and emotion? Yes. This whole concert is worth the watch.
I BELIEVE THEY WERE REFERING TO THE OTHERS FEELING AWKWARD
"You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you" - she sings staring into his eyes.
i was at this concert, you could feel the tension in the crowd. Once the song was finished everyone just stood and stared at each other, it was a fantastic moment!!!
I was at a Fleetwood Mac concert (without Lindsey or Stevie) and everyone was standing around and staring at each other after Mick's body suit / vest drum solo on World Turning. Different kind of awkward though.
Omgoodness sooo lucky ❤
So lucky!! Awesome!
@@maestrojonlol what was it an awkward suit?
OMG you are so blessed!
The best version - Love how Lindsey uses the facial stares, and looks to get Stevie to show the raw emotion.There are videos where she breaks down crying, and he has to finish the song. He did it on purpose to get her emotional. Wonderful performance. RiP Christine - Thank you
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
When somebody still feels it this raw 20 years after the fact, it goes to show you how strong and real it was. That emotion she shows on stage for Silver Springs is as fresh as it was in 1977...I saw them do this in 1997 at MSG in NY City and I was floored. The song was supposed to go on the rumors album in 1977 but there wasn't enough space available ,so they just made it a single, what a mistake ! I think this may very well be the best song Stevie Nicks has ever done... Lindsay and Stevie's relationship was not one of those typical Hollywood marriages ,within three minutes after they break up, one of them is off vacationing in Bali with their nutritionist or personal trainer. You know like that Gisele Bundchen. She must have been really traumatized over her breakup with Tom Brady. The ink on the divorce wasn't even dry yet and she already had a new boyfriend lined up. I broke up with my ex 3 years ago and I'm still having a hard time. It just goes to show you that Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks really had what one would call true romance . Their 1977 album wasn't called Rumors by accident. Christine and John McVie we're breaking up, Christine was in the midst of an affair with a roadie or guitar tech for the band. Mick Fleetwood was divorcing his wife ( Jenny Boyd,sister of George Harrison's wife) and having an affair with Stevie Nicks. So they appropriately named the album rumours because God Only knows rumors were flying at the time!!!!
them doing any songs from the rumors album,there's alot of tension on stage doing those songs again i am sure.
@@anacap007 or a woman happy or a woman sad or a woman hungry or a ...
He was the music director on stage and he also co-produced this show and produced the album. He's helping pull the performance out of her. They filmed this over three days and Stevie said she wasn't happy with the first two. She said they were getting along so well it she was able to be vulnerable but here she was finally able to let it rip. Interesting to think that by 1997 it had been 30 years since they started in a band together. Personally and musically they know how to push each other's buttons.
The best part is that Lindsey looked right back at her as if to say "go ahead and let it out" "I'll take it because I deserve it" I'm not going to look away in shame
She gave it to him !! She wiped the floor with her anger and heartache. She unleashed all the emotions.
This is my favourite Fleetwood Mac performance, ever. The chemistry between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham was off the charts. The fact they were able to tap into that emotion from decades ago and it use it to drive a world class performance shows just how good these guys were. This entire concert was incredible, but Silver Springs always stands out as being a very raw performance. Thank you for reacting to this 🥰
that nights performance by them was one of the best of all time
If you thought this was awkward, check out their live performance of “The Chain” (1982)…they are pretty much yelling at each other through their singing 😂😳
So so fun! I love that one too. Higher than kites and just yelling away and it’s just the best!
You’re so right! That’s when the hate was real.
I just saw this one today for the first time. Unreal
I need to see this video now!! 😆
Oh my God, the hatred combined with the fact that they were basically vibrating out of their bodies due to the massive amount of drugs they were on made that performance * chef's kiss *
I don't see awkwardness. I see genius. These 2 broke up in the 70s and moved on with many different partners. They are both able to tap into their emotions and imbue their music with it. They are both performing at the highest level.
Exactly. At this point they are just playing it up to give the audience what they want. She had an affair with the drummer Mic Fleetwood. They all have their historic turmoil.
That's exactly how I see it as well. It needs a lot of guts but also a lot of confession to music and the band to continue like that. This concert was recorded about 20 years after the breakup and the writing of the song, that was not a recent breakup!
@@Kuesel68 Exactly Exactly! If it were THAT awkward they won't play it! It is such a beautiful heartbreak song.
I loved how she cursed him with forever hearing her voice and he will never forget her! That can't be a great feeling.
I love this song. I can listen to this all day. I grew up on the 70’s, when Fleetwood Mac was at their prime
I don't think it was awkward. You witnessed decades of emotions, words, acts, and talent amongst the entire band. If nothing else, they put on a great show, and allowed you two to feel it all as if its brand new between them. You gotta know how many times they sang this song.
If that was putting on a show they did it truly well. Imo the intensity between them was real.
-"time cast a spell on you-
-but you wont forget me"-
I think everyone has that “one that got away” relationship in their past. No matter how much time goes by I’m sure this dredges up some painful memories.
The raw emotion of this performance can still bring me to tears 26 years later.
Every damn time and then I'll listen to it and cry ten more times in a row.
This was from 1997. 20 years after she wrote it. The breakup with Lindsey was still fresh. It's amazing that she still feels that emotion after 20 years.
You sometimes never can completely get over a breakup. Its just always there years later.
Sometimes you just never get over a true love. You move on, but it's always there, deeply embedded inside you.
Pretty sure she still felt that raw emotion in 2017 when she finally had enough, swore she'd never work with him again, and told the band it was her or Lindsey.
Yes! From their phenomenal reunion/concert THE DANCE. Perfection! ✨
@@michlkwitz yeah,put all the blame on Lindsey! She was in no way innocent through all of this
Oh, she’s the queen of writing songs, and then making Lindsay play guitar on them while she sings them angrily at his face😂😂
Ikr, they savage! 😆Especially on "Go Your Own Way", he won't even look at her in that performance! 😯I tell you some of the BEST songs were spawned from some of the WORST breakups!
Taylor Swift has nothing on her!
Funny considering she wrote 2 nice polite songs for him and he wrote a hostile song to her and she literally had to sing it. Which had to suck since not only was she the cheater. But stevie was very narcissistic at the time and it made her Ill to sing night after night . Not to mention even the songs she did write she only wrote the lyrics so all Lindsay is doing is playing the music to it HE wrote. While she had to sing his actual lyrics. So no she wasn't the queen lol
@@mykebreeden The music wasn't necessarily Lindsey's. Stevie could play piano (granted, not as well as Christine) enough to write her own tunes. She just needed the rest of the band, particularly Lindsey, to fill the song out and make it better. She never would have gotten far as a soloist if all she did was write lyrics and sing.
They were Rock Stars, not living normal lives like the rest of us... He wrote songs and 'made' her sing on them too. I'm sure no one 'made' anyone do anything, they knew they had a great band, it's called, THEIR JOB. We all still fall for it though, great music, great drama, no single person is to blame.
This performance was 20 years after the song was released which means it was way after they broke up. Everyone knew it was about him. I think they we’re playing it up. His sweating was probably from the lights. Also, when this song came out they were in their prime. No way anyone was walking away.
Even better side note? Stevie said she knew it was over when Lindsey's oldest kid was born... one year AFTER this preformance!
The chemistry between Lindsey and Stevie in this vid is fire.
This song meant a lot to Stevie for many reasons. It was written for the Rumours album about her view of her break-up with Lindsey. But the group cut it from the album because they needed to cut down the time & also they felt it's slower tempo didn't quite fit with the other songs. Stevie almost left the band as a result. She was so angry. 20 years later (in this tv concert) they recorded the live performance and it became the hit that Nicks always believed it would be.
I think I would’ve cut “Oh Daddy” instead, though it’s a great song and would’ve been a tough decision no matter what.
RIP Christie McVie.
I also believe this live version was nominated for a Grammy. Vindication after it being cut all those years ago.
And it earned them a 1997 Grammy Nomination.
Please please PLEASE do "Beautiful Child"! It's the most underrated Fleetwood Mac song of all time!
I love this version... the way all their voices blend in the chorus is just gorgeous. And then when she turns on him and gives him the straight-up Crazy Eyes... Magic. They really bring it home. I get goosebumps every time.
"Dreams" was also Stevie talking to Lindsey and "Go Your Own Way" is Lindsey talking to Stevie. They had a complicated relationship. Beautiful music together.
“The Chain” is about Stevie, “Age of Seventeen” is about Lindsey. The vast majority of their music is them talking to each other in some way. The whole thing is such an emotional mess and that’s what she means by the “you’ll never get away from the voice of the woman who loved you.” Her voice is on his biggest hits. His is on hers. They’re forever linked. And their heartbreak will last forever. 😔💔
@@andyrunton Edge, of Seventeen... Great song.
Stevie and Lindsey's relationship is so interesting because by all accounts, and even she herself has said it several times, Stevie is the one who broke up with Lindsey and she has often said that he's the one who wanted to stay together. But yet, she wrote this which is clearly about him and their relationship and the raw emotion and longing.
Makes me a little emotional remembering my Mom playing these songs from the days.
This song was bumped from the Rumours album. Was a b side. Stevie was so pissed. Became a hit when they did this concert. Wrote it for Lindsey
Being a Fleetwood Mac fan is kinda like watching the longest soap opera on the face of the planet sometimes, but it's been worth every minute of it.
Agreed. FMac historians know that drama even pre-dates Buckingham & Nicks joining the band. FM fired former guitarist Bob Weston for sleeping with Mick’s wife. Former guitarist Jeremy Spencer left FM to join a cult. A different cult hooked founder Peter Green on acid, leading to his departure.
@@straycatttt2766 Peter Green was schizophrenic, he'd been doing acid and other drugs for awhile (probably self medicating ) before the trip that pushed him over the edge. Meanwhile there was also poor doomed brilliant young Danny Kirwin who had mental health problems and was an alcoholic who tried to beat Green with his Les Paul. Green though wouldn't fire him or even Jeremy Spencer who often did not show up or refused to play which is why he hired Kirwin and FM had 3 guitarists. John McVie was also an ugly alcoholic which lead Christine to sleeping with the sound engineer. All pre B&N. Buckingham & Nicks may have also been messy but their joining at least made the others millionaires multiple times over. 😆
The look of adoration on Jay's face when Stevie starts singing...
“The drummer” is Mick Fleetwood, the founder of Fleetwood Mac! 😊
This music is their life stories in lyrical form. What a legacy.
That's Mick Fleetwood on the drums, the band's namesake. The man is phenomenal and such a gentle giant. As he states the band stayed together through it all, and a lot of good songs came out of it, they just stayed professional and played those songs as a gift to us, their fans.
Again, this performance is from their reunion/concert that almost didn’t happen from what I read..They’re older and so perfectly seasoned here, and after much dramas.. There was quite a bit of “interactions” among the entire band.. They managed to pull it all together and this entire concert/ reunion was a MASTERPIECE! Y’all should watch the entire thing. Fleetwood Mac “THE DANCE.” 🔥🙂✨
The drummer is Mick Fleetwood, one of the founders of the band.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "You Make Loving Fun"(Christine on lead) !!!
Congrats on doing the best version! The intensity between Stevie and Lindsey was palpable, as promised!
edit- this performance was 1997, 20 years after their breakup!
Lindsey wrote "Go Your Own Way" about Stevie, so pay back is a b*&%@!!
Interesting note about You Make Loving Fun... Christine was married to the bass player, but actually wrote this song about a roadie she was having an affair with :D
@@toolshed7652 true. Its amazing that all 5 band members were involved in breakups when 'Rumours' album was made.
Absolutely true.
It was John who quipped, "What a bunch of rumours!" after all the songs were recorded, naming the album in the process.
Lyndsey is a great guitarist and singer.”Never going back” is one masterpiece of his.
One of my favorites from Lindsey..
I love Second Hand News
This song touches a NERVE! Makes me cry every time. This was a reunion concert 10 or so years after the fact.
There is a live version of “go your own way” where I think the breakup was very fresh. Lindsey sings and Stevie is on backup in a black top hat. You can definitely see in their faces how personal it is. It was written by Lindsey specifically about the breakup from what I’ve heard. It’s a great song and performance but also very emotionally revealing.
John & Christine McVie went through a divorce about the same time that Stevie and Lyndsay were going through their breakup. The band was in turmoil and the lyrics on Rumours & Fleetwood Mac showed it. The emotions were raw and real.
This is superb song...so powerful...her voice is so haunting.....I always cry to this song...so emotional! masterpiece!
What amazes me most about Stevie I. This song is that with all the intense emotion she still writes the most incredible solo for Lindsey. She is one of the most generous song writers ever
The drummer is Mick Fleetwood, the founder of the group.
I've watched this over and over and over again. I bought the DVD. I still watch it on repeat. The history and chemistry between Stevie and Lindsey, just wow. So much sadness and longing in between the heartbreak and anger. I'm so glad I got to see Fleetwood Mac many times before Christine passed away, plus Stevie solo and Lindsey solo. I love them all.
Yes! Same- When this came out, we ran out and bought the DVD immediately! Can never watch it enough- 🔥✨
About Lindsey sweating: keep in mind that stage lights are *hot* and pointing at the band from every conceivable angle, AND this song was performed approximately halfway through a 1.5 hour concert.
But yeah - I have seen videos of various performances over the years, and Stevie + Lindsey *always* channelled that tension between them… it’s like they re-enacted the entire arc of their relationship, from love to anger to sadness to resignation, over and over across the decades…
As far as how the rest of the band felt? Trust me, they had lots of their own relationship dramas going on too. Lol . Fleetwood Mac is like a primetime soap opera both on and off stage !
100%, he's not sweating because of Stevie, he plays hard at every show. This was 20 years after the breakup, it's called Show Business but, it's still awesome.
Exactly. No doubt it's still an emotional song for them both. But wearing a suit under hot lights while playing a live concert for HOURS will make almost anyone sweat.
You can feel the pain from every member in that band in this song. Just very emotional in every aspect.
And I’m “Go Your Own Way”, Lindsey sings the line “packing up, shacking up is all you want to do” and he always turns and looks dead at Stevie.
I am so glad you did the Fleetwood Mac song! This live version is powerful and one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs.
Prior to joining Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey and Stevie recorded an album together featuring a song called "Long Distance Winner," well worth a listen. Yes, it is also a song Stevie wrote about Lindsey. I love all the songs she wrote about him. They are a perfect example of two people who will always love each other but can't be together.
Fantastic album and LDW is my favorite song from along with Frozen Love. Crystal, Crying In The Night, Don't Le Me Down Again, Stephanie - also great. To think Landslide, Rhiannon, I'm So Afraid, Monday Morning, I Don't Want To Know, Sorcerer, That's Alright, Lady were all demoed and some already recorded for their second album - and they couldn't get another record deal on the strength of any of those songs.
Lack of maturity. These stars are too spoiled to make the compromises needed to make a relationship work
The drumner is Mick Fleetwood, after whom the band is named.
What you missed is at the very end of the performance Lindsay and Stevie hugged each other.
You have to understand. This song was written during a time when both couples in the group were dealing with break ups! The entire Rumors album was written by band members lashing out at one another through the lyrics!! The performance you are watching is at least 20 years after the fact so to a great degree everyone has moved on. Even so Stevie and Lindsey understand the wisdom of embracing the passion of a song while performing it!!
Mick Fleetwood was going through a second divorce to Jennie Boyd also. The turmoil created a helluva album though.
@@surlechapeau His first. The second happened because of his affairs with Stevie and Sara.
Fleetwood Mac "HOLD ME" (original video) is my favorite of all their songs. 🙌
This is simply one of the most powerful music videos I've ever seen to this day. It's live, it's real, it's visceral. Stevie slays, she is at the peak of her abilities and when she thunders away at Lindsay you can't help but be in absolute awe at what you're witnessing. Like they are all performing flawlessly right through the end, if there were real issues going on at the time of this performance this song wouldn't survive, it's all in the past just not forgotten. They are tapping into those old feelings just enough to make this great.
-"time cast a spell on you-
-but you wont forget me-
She can melt the hardest of hearts with her voice and stage presence and soul. Just watch the video again and watch the eye contact and facial expressions between Stevie and Lindsey. Very intense and full of emotions, from both of them. And gotta give Lindsey his dues... a great guitar performance. Incredible performance. But yeah.... dude was told! Stevie and Ann Wilson are my two favorite female singers. Legends. Goddesses. Loved your reaction and commentary :)
Lindsey Buckingham
The track describes Nicks's perspective on the ending of the romantic relationship between her and the lead guitarist, Lindsey Buckingham. She has said, I wrote "Silver Springs" about Lindsey. And we were in Maryland somewhere driving under a freeway sign that said Silver Springs (sic), Maryland.
Just watched their live performance of The Chain from the Mirage tour in 1982, LA tour stop, earlier today. Talk about intense between Stevie and Lindsey. The chemistry of this band will never be repeated. RIP Christine.
Fleetwood Mac pulled at your heartstrings with this one, Silver Springs. Mic Fleetwood is such a fantastic drummer and soul. And this is why they are the BEST!!!
Fleetwood Mac is actually one of the rare bands that never did officially disband, despite their turmoil. Stevie did her solo career while remaining in the band, meanwhile, some of the other band members’ had their solo projects as well. I saw them on my birthday in 2018. Being a huge fan, it was absolutely incredible. It was entrancing. Through the various lineups with interchanging band members, heartbreaks, hostility, drugs, and alcohol over the years- it was about rock n roll, for them it was all about the music, about the band. And still is. It’s pretty remarkable that Fleetwood Mac has kept going, almost like it’s own entity. They’re a perfect example of captivating, real artists. I love that you love them as well Jay and Amber!!!! I look forward to every time you do anything Fleetwood Mac-related, it’s a great joy for me. Love it
They disbanded in 1995 after the latest round of replacements. They'd degenerated into 2nd billed playing county fairs and their album didn't even chart on the Billboard 200. Mick dismissed the other members realizing it was a new configuration too far. Then Mick and John were working as session musicians for Lindsey which eventually lead to The Dance in 1997.
It was amazing getting to see Fleetwood mac about 15 years ago. Thankfully Lindsey was still with them else it wouldn't have been the same. I was only able to tell my mom how good it was which sucked, because they have been her favorite band for about the past 30 years. I could only get her a shirt.
This song was written to go on the "Rumors" album in 1977 but it got cut from the album for various reasons and that is one of the reasons it was still so emotional for Stevie...she was bitter about her beautiful song being cut. And yes, it is about Lindsey. They put it on the B side of "Go Your Own Way" in '77, which, ironically, is Lindsey's song about Stevie. So here it was in 1997 when they got back together for a tour...20 years after she had written it and they put it on a new album and the song actually got nominated for a Grammy the next year. Stevie said she had passed a sign in travels that said Silver Springs (Maryland) and thought it sounded like a nice place to be. So she wrote it about Lindsey....he could have been her Silver Springs
I’m so glad you watched this one. I watched this in 97 when it was televised and I felt the same as you guys. Very powerful performance. It’s still one of my favorites. RIP Christine
The beautiful thing about Stevie and Lindsey is that as often as they hurt each other, they never stopped loving each other AND respecting each other. He played a beautiful guitar solo on a song she wrote about how he hurt her.
The drummer is Mick Fleetwood.
And Lindsey was sweating because at this concert he had just done back to back songs with massive guitar solos. If you can ever watch this whole concert, it will blow your mind.
This is rock n roll's biggest love story. They loved each other and hurt each other way too much but they still love each other. Lindsey wrote Go Your Own Way which was very painful for Stevie to sing over and over. She wrote Silver Springs. There are videos of them performing this song and crying. They will always love each other but some hurt is just not forgivable. Some times love is just not enough.
This is my FAVORITE version of this song, as well as the BEST song on this 1997 “The Dance” release ❤❤❤. This song is beautiful and heartbreaking.
Stevie was not the only one. Christine McVie wrote one of their biggest hits about an affair she had while with Bassist John McVie. That would be "You make loving fun." Lindsey wrote "Go your own way" about Stevie. But the most important song that addressed the relationships in the band would be "the Chain." With all 5 having song credit on that one.
Believe me, Lindsey has his own songs that are about Stevie. Whenever you watch them live, Stevie and Lindsey always give looks. You need to watch that entire concert. Best concert ever. Annnnd, if you will please watch this video of Stevie and Lindsey singing about their tumultuous relationship it’s titled “Fleetwood Mac 12-30-13 MGM GrandLas Vegas- ‘Say Goodbye’l
One of my all time favorite live performances of anything ever. The years of drama, the years of angst and yes, love. All of it, right there for the world to see. Chefs kiss. They broke up like 20 years before this performance and yet here they are still laying it all out there.
Fun fact - this song was the "B" side to "Go Your Own Way" when that was released as a single. Also - you have listened to some of Stevie's solo stuff, and one of Christine's. Check out Lindsay Buckingham's solo jaunts, like "Go Insane" or "Trouble".
LOVE 'Trouble'!
There was a time in Concert after the couples were all ready broken up, and Stevie and Lindsey wrote songs about each other and stared at each other on stage, and in one of those concerts after a certain song they actually hugged and kissed on stage in front of everyone! Showing that they could still care for each other and be friends
Their love for the music was stronger than the drama...and the fans were rewarded by all the tension with songs that are timeless.
A cold, snowy day in a hotel on a business trip in New York listening to those lyrics, her voice, and his guitar with tears streaming down my face.
Stevie got the name for this song while driving through Silver Springs, Maryland, when she thought this sounded like an idyllic place to live. She used to sign her name in hotels as Miss Silver Springs.
This was a definite anger tune written after Stevie and Lindsay broke up. Stevie lays it on the line. The other members of the band voted to not put this song on the Rumours album which annoyed Stevie. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
it's actually Silver Spring, MD not Silver Springs. I live here but yes I heard she saw the highway sign and got inspiration for the song. I went to see them in the 70's and Stevie was so out of it she could barely stand. Back then, we did not complain or try to get our money back as most of the audience was in a similar state-lol
@@26shedan I actually have family in Silver Spring, MD, and go down every year...this song, the studio version that was rejected for the album & released as a B-side to Go Your Own Way, that was a big radio hit in Silver Spring for 2 reasons, the greatness of the song itself & the title...they viewed it as their song, and I would hear it all the time I was down there from New York...it is a great town slash small city, always loved it & viewed it as a second hometown...for years I never knew where to get the studio version, until 1992 (??) when it was placed on their boxset "25 Years: The Chain", but this live version from The Dance is as good but just ramps up the intensity & tension...
@@26shedan Thanks for the clarification. Sounds like a few concerts I've been to. Have a great day. 👍✌️🇨🇦🤗🇺🇲🎶🎶
It actually wasn’t voted on. The reason it wasn’t put on Rumours was because of a space issue. You have remember that in 1977 there was no digital processing!
It should be noted that this was a 1997 reunion performance of the band after they'd been split for over a decade (and longer since Lindsey Buckingham left earlier). So all emotions and feelings were heightened.
Lindsey wrote "You Can Go Your Own Way" about Stevie and the band was still together for a long time afterwards. Stevie got up on stage and sang the hell out of it knowing it was a slap in het face. The tension in the band was said to bring the best out of them musically. I think it brought the best out of their writing abilities and think their professionalism and talent made their music so good.
Jay's face when she started singing 🤣 I see hearts in his eyes. Believe me Jay, we get it. ❤️
Stevie and Lindsey started playing and writing music in high school. The connection between these two very talented musicians runs very deep and to a certain degree they still love each other. The drummer is the Mick Fleetwood and the bass player is John Mcvie hence Fleetwood Mac one of the best bands from the 60's. The lineup has changed more than a few talented musician have played with the band.
What a powerful performance. And those harmonies
No truer words, you'll never get away from the voice of the woman who loved you. This is 20 years later
Hey. Lindsey wrote "Go Your Own Way," so Stevie's had to stand there and sing with him on a song where he's saying such things about her, such as "shacking up is all you want to do." Oh, and Lindsey is just an energetic performer. He had worked up a sweat by the time they got to this point in the concert. This concert, by the way, is about 20 years after "Rumours," when all these breakup songs were written, so I'm sure they've gotten over the awkwardness on stage.
Soooo glad you watched this version of Silver Springs! It’s so much more powerful watching Stevie sing it directly to Lindsey. Her voice is at optimal Stevie-ness in this song too. You should check out Christine singing You Make Lovin Fun with the bassist, John McVie, her ex-husband knowing the song was written when they were married, but it ain’t about John.
This concert is just THE BEST! I adore Stevie's performance of "Gold Dust Woman". It's pure Stevie - mystical, haunting, powerful, just blows me away every time.
What some call 'awkward', others just call 'reality'. Being prepared to put it all into their art is kind of a hallmark of Fleetwood Mac. It takes real guts to stand in front of a massive audience, being filmed for the VHS/DVD release, and proceed to work out decades-old differences with your fellow musicians. Most people don't have what it takes to be this real.
I can’t believe they left this song off of Rumours, because it is, without a doubt, the most wonderfully petty and prophetic masterpiece of an eff you I’ve ever seen in my life.
That man never did and never will get away from the sound of her voice. Ever. He will hear it on his death bed.
One of THE BEST songs from FM….You have to remember, when they performed this, many many years have passed…they pretty much had moved on at this point…however, they have major history together, they still all love each other…thats why losing Christine is still so hard for me because those harmonies will never be heard live again.
I never let whatever drama that's involved affect my enjoyment of the song. This is a beautiful number. Absolutely beautiful and sincere.
Stevie, Christine, and Lyndsey THE BEST THREE PART HARMONY !!¡! RIP CHRISTINE YOUR VOICE IS SO MISSED!!!!
Fleetwood Mac concerts are basically a very raw, very passionate, very poetic breakup.
R.i.p. Christine McVie
Oh my God finally I have been asking for this one forever it's one of my favorites
Talk about leaving everything on the stage. That song is the best live performance they ever did in my opinion and really sums up what Fleetwood Mac is all about. The brutal honesty of it all is breathtaking
I love Lindsay's tone on his solo. Its beautiful and appropriate for the song.
The sound of Fleetwood Mac is like nothing else. RIP Christine. You need to check out some of Lindsey's solo work - "Trouble", "Holiday Road", "Go Insane". The dynamic between Lindsey and Stevie has always been one with a lot of tension. It is what made a good hunk of their music so incredible. Christine McVie was also married to John McVie on Bass and that tension was there. Stevie had an affair with Mick Fleetwood after she left Lindsey so the dysfunction in the band was so strange, but it made for incredible music. But as you mentioned, that tension did have its internal issues, which led to the band breaking up for a long time.
You all need to give a little more credit to Mr. Lindsay Buckingham. First, she wouldn't have been in the band without him. Mic Fleetwood wanted Lindsay as his new singer and guitarist. Lindsay said, "Not without my girlfriend." Second, he definitely can hold his own in writing song about the breakup. Go Your Own Way is one of the best songs on the Rumors album. Which is tough on a nearly flawless record. Lastly, Landslide was written before they joined Fleetwood Mac. It is more about whether she was going to give up her dreams of music and her father buying her a ticket back to LA. At the time, Lindsay was part of that future.
Stevie's and Lindsay's original breakup songs were from 1976 - "Go Your Own Way" from Lindsay and "Dreams" by Stevie.
The drummer is Mick Fleetwood, the Fleetwood in Fleetwood Mac
Back in 77, this was a B-side, meaning you could only find it on the 45 of Go Your Own Way. It was obscure at the time. Fleetwood reunited in 1997, and this song was performed on their "Dance" concert, and it became a hit the 2nd time around. That concert had 4 brand new songs and greatest hits, as well as bringing back this
I remember as a kid hunting down the 45 of “Go Your Own Way” just to get this song (it was the B side) since it was cut from the Rumours album. To me, it’s one of Stevie’s greatest songs.
Also, Stevie was PISSED at Lindsay about “Go Your Own Way” because of the “shacking up” line. That made “Silver Springs” as the B side extra drama-tastic
You two crack me up. This band was very incestuous, having many changing trists. The horrendous stress was during the making of Rumors. It's truly unbelievable that they survived that year and then went on to make more albums. By the time of this video a lot time had rolled by and they had made peace. They have a huge collection of songs to make a playlist from and don't pick songs that they all don't want to experience nightly.
I love the piano arrangement. Wow, this actually put tears in my eyes. I grew up with the band, but never really got into their messy life
That performance that night by Fleetwood Mac was one of the best ever
It's not awkward at this point - there's been too much time passed. She and Lindsey were very close during this tour and celebrated each other's success. Lindsey was sweating because of how hot the lights are on stages, not awkwardness. You're projecting, guys! Haha.
They’re playing it up for the performance as it was 20 years later. Glad you did this version as it hits harder and is so much better than the recorded version. When you guys start going back and doing live versions of songs you could do almost this whole concert. You could use it for your first listen on Don’t Stop, Tusk and any others you hadn’t done yet.
Jay, don't get this twisted. Stevie was the one ended the relationship with Lindsey. He wanted to get married and have kids, but Stevie wanted to have her carrier instead. Lindsey wrote "Go Your Own Way" about Stevie dumping him. "Silver Springs" was even the B-Side to "Go Your Own Way." Rumours was about the turmoil within the band. "Go Your Own Way," "Second Hand News," and "Never Going Back Again" were written by Lindsey about Stevie. "Dreams," "Silver Springs," "Gold Dust Woman" and the original demo of "The Chain" were written by Stevie about Lindsey. "I Don't Wanna Know" which is performed by both Lindsey and Stevie is very much about their broken relationship. "You Make Lovin' Fun" was written by Christine for a guy on their lighting crew that she was having an affair with. "Oh Daddy," "Songbird," and "Don't Stop" were written by Christine about her failing relationship with John McVie, who was heavy into alcohol at the time. "The Chain" was rewritten by Lindsey and Christine, with additions from Mick Fleetwood and John, to become a band anthem, with Stevie's original chorus about Lindsey. The entire album is a masterpiece of break up songs, but it was still Stevie who broke up with Lindsey.
After she cheated on him.
Even Mic Fleetwood was going through a break-up from his wife...
