@twentyfour501 Agreed.....check out "you can close your eyes" by james taylor/carly simon...never have I seen two people more in love.......heart...breaking....beautiful....
Proof of how strong an album Rumours was, that they could afford to leave a song of this quality off it!!!! Amazing song and still sounds brilliant 34 years later!!!!! And the songs keep coming - thanks FM for being brilliant!
Interesting that Silver Spring was never on an album. Hey, I got to see Robert Palmer in August 78 at Finnigin's Rainbow in O.C. a club that held about 50 people. We all danced as he sang all the songs from Double Fun. He was super thin and young and wearing a beautiful italian suit. What a memory.
I worked at a dive restaurant in O.C.Md in 1978.. 17 years old..... made no money, but the other waitresses and I would feed the jute box and dance to this song. every night..crazy beautiful memory.....
@livnlovnlife379 ~ your memory has me so homesick I am puddled up here. I am from Baltimore and spent plenty of time in OC. AND the late 70s! If I could relive that time I would. Rumours was on EVERY channel on the radio
@ttocsify In what way is Stevie Nicks like Cher? They can both sing and both have long hair!! Cher acts - Stevie doesn't. Does Cher write her own songs? Stevie Nicks still looks like Stevie Nicks, and she wears clothes when she goes out!!!!!!! I like Cher, but I can't see the comparison. Please enlighten me!!!!!!!!
Pretty sure that this is the original version that wench has posted here. And she's 1000% spot on about Stevie's Enchanted Box set being dynamite,however Silver Springs is NOT on it (the only Mac song that is,Rhiannon,is a solo version of just Stevie at the piano and singing it while she plays.
Silver Springs was left off the Rumours album and I think the fact that so many great songs of hers were just not finding a place to be heard led to the Bella Donna album. And so on.
By the time that this record came out there was so much "stress" in the band that I am sure that Stevie's x did not allow alot of great stuff be on the record!!!! By now, I am sure he is very jelous (sorry can't spell) of what she had that he didn't!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This "performance" was nominated for a Grammy. It is one of the more intense vocal performances ever, with an incredible backstory. Nicks had a lot of mixed feelings over the song. The song is to Lindsey, over their breakup. It was cut from Rumours, and has been called the best song ever to be cut from an album. Then, Mick Fleetwood would not allow Nicks to release it as a Stevie Nicks song, and actually left over that decision ... the 1987 breakup. With The Dance she finally got it out.
I noticed that how harder you try to let your kids like "our" music, the less they care about it. Let them discover it by themselves. My daughter loves songs like "Dance Hall days" just because she heard it on GTA Vice City for example. Think of it, what did you like when you were young? Music your parents played all day or music that you discovered yourself
I'm a fetus and I'd just like to say that this music rocks! I know in my heart that what I really want to do is bang Stevie Nicks, but I have no idea what that means.
Can anybody find and post the original version? It was never put on an album - just the flip side of one of the singles. But I didn't buy singles anymore in the mid '70s so I would go to this burger/beer joint by campus and listen to it on the jukebox. Can't imagine how many dimes I dropped to hear that song!
And to think the other band members thought this wasn't as good as I Don't Want To Know. While that is also a great song, Silver Springs is an masterpiece of deep emotion and would have been a perfect addition to Rumours. Granted, Silver Springs earned it's rightful recognition on The Dance...but still. Rumours is one of the greatest albums of all time!

@Bondsmanla yes it did it to me, over & over again for 10 years. And now you can't figure out why I'm so hurt, bitter, angry & determined to destroy you.
This song is me, no doubt. We dated in June, 1980. I could have been her silver springs but I wouldn't let her love me. Time has definitely cast a spell on me.
This song, along with Led Zeppelin's Hey Hey What Can I do, are my all-time favorite songs that never made it onto albums, from the days when albums mattered. Fleetwood Mac's Rumours was a great album and a huge seller, but if this song was on it, it would have been that much bigger.
@ls1959 I still don't understand why in hell this song was not included on Rumours. Forget that "there wasn't space shit!" This is a musical masterpiece and SHOULD have been on Rumours no matter what! Damn - put "Never Coming Back Again" or "Oh Daddy" (both fine songs) on the B-side of a single, but KEEP this on the LP! I also contend that Stevie's other 3 songs should have remained as well. Don't forget either that Stevie did more than "help" write "The Chain" - she wrote ALL of the lyrics!
@Wench098 Yes, this is Fleetwood Mac with Stevie Nicks vocals. This version was originally only released on the B side of the Go Your Own Way 45 RPM record, never on an album. I think it is one of the most beautiful songs they ever recorded. I first found it on a jukebox in 1976 and have loved it ever since.
@BrainsOftheMatter - Don't worry about your generation. You can't control them or answer for them. You only have responsibility for one person - YOU. It's a lesson I continually learn. At 65, I'm almost the oldest person in these apartments, and I am constantly astonished by the fact that many people who look like slackers and losers are really quite polite and helpful (I'm disabled). Wench 098 is spot-on.
i appreciate your personal taste in music, but for me this girl is far too meloncholy...i tried listening to her cover of kanye's heartless as well, she just dosen't do it for me. I don't feel the song as much as I can appreciate her voice, i don't feel her passion in either song nearly like i feel from both original artists. if i didn't just get turned off by her covers, i might appreciate, and feel her passion more in a song she writes herself.
@sdsunshiness its super interesting that you think that. sometimes a song just cant just be over sung by anyone.It's HER song you know? that's everything from her heart.so i think thats what makes it hard to cover.but i do actually like eisley :] oh and its another girl who sings heartless.
good job! i did too...i was lucky enough to grow up w/my momma listenin to em! i'd say so many of their songs feel like they were written from my life, but they were written before i had much of a life ; )...this one is for my husband who left
@sdsunshiness Sivler Springs inclusion on 'The Dance' was the band's (and especially Mick's) way of "apologizing" to Stevie for the travesty of not including the song on their monumental LP Rumours. Stevie was pissed - and wanted to include the song on her own "Best of" album 'Timespace' in '91. Mick vetoed this idea as he wanted the song for FM's box set in '92 (as it was a rarity then). Stevie quit FM in protest & began a verbal war with Mick. Silver Springs was THE highlight of The Dance!
Clairexxoo and SWprincessyo. Don't be daft. Every generation has great music of its own. You are lucky also to be able to find and listen to great music of previous generations. Oh, and by the way, if you are listening to Fleetwood Mac when you are 16 then you are already supercool.
They should have put this song on Rumors in the place of "I Don't Wanna Know". Don't get me wrong, IDWK is a great, fun song...but this is one of Stevie's most beautiful songs ever.
Best song EVER to listen to over and over after a breakup. Doesn't matter if you're male or female, it hits you in the gut and summarizes all the feelings that you're going through.
Driving to this song is perfection, all the chaos dissolves away and you're just lost in the music. Stevie Nicks really does take us away for awhile when she's singing.
Back in the day of the 45 single....the flip side of Go You Own Way...I think. Not too sure, but I do own it....in my pile of old 45s. LOVED it then, LOVED the new version.
Crazy how it just keeps getting better and better. Stevie Nicks -- Mick was definitely right to bring her into the band; while leaving this song off may have seemed to have been a bad idea, unless this is the original recording, maybe something about it wasn't quite "ready for prime time."
Hauntingly hypnotic, as is most work by Stevie Nicks. And she's probably more comely now than in her youth -- and that's saying a lot (and I love the pics of her here). Thanks for the video.
I can't think of a FM song I don't like - but this one after all these yearsstill causes me great emotion. Who can't say "I Know I Could Have Loved You, But You Would Not Let Me." GREAT PRESENTATION! Thanks
One of my favorites, I had this on tape and I definetly wore it out! I could listen to this forever, so beautiul but so bittersweet! I love Stevie at the end the last few words and wooos..., Thanks again for another great job with the pictures.... Thanks again for sharing!
How many of you get chills when you hear Fleetwood Mac? Do any of you feel like crying like a little baby listening to Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham sing and play together?
@EvanesEmperor This song makes me cry too. Especially "you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you". I saw a video of them performing this song live and the look that Stevie gave Lindsey during the last verse was enough to rip someones heart out, so sad. Might get to see them this summer, really hope they do this song!
@EvanesEmperor The videos from Stevie singing this song to Lindsey on the Dance tour are just haunting. I think even after all these years they both love each other, but they know they never will be together. I think the sound of Stevie's voice will always haunt Lindsey. You can just feel it. This song makes me emotional and is one of the few Fleetwood Mac songs that gives me the chills while listening to it.
@EvanesEmperor this song makes me cry every time i hear it.. ive always loved stevies voice and the message behind this song is just so powerful..i could only wish that i had a woman that loved me that much.
LOVE Stevie Nicks! I'll see her March 20th in Ft. Lauderdale on her Heart and Soul tour with Rod Stewart. I hope she sings Silver Springs...an absolute favorite of mine. Nicks is the coolest female artist of all time!
Anyone know what the set list is on this tour? I can't find it!
This is a cool song. It was originally intended to be part of the rumours album but the producers thought "You can go your own way" was a better fit. I wish they would have used this cut instead. (Im 99% sure it was 'go your own way ' that was used
instead but it may have been another cut--- I just remember thinking that Silver would have been better and made a kick-ass album all the better!! Thanks for the posting!!!!!
This must be the most underrated song in rock n roll. How could anyone leave this off of Rumours?!?

@Clairexxoo Big deal - I was born in 1995 also and instead of whining, Im enjoying the great music I "missed out on" right now in 2011.
So you're 15/16 and I'm glad that you're listening to some great music at your age - No point complaining, just enjoy the music.

Clairexxoo and SWprincessyo. Don't be daft. Every generation has great music of its own. You are lucky also to be able to find and listen to great music of previous generations. Oh, and by the way, if you are listening to Fleetwood Mac when you are 16 then you are already supercool.

They should have put this song on Rumors in the place of "I Don't Wanna Know". Don't get me wrong, IDWK is a great, fun song...but this is one of Stevie's most beautiful songs ever.

Best song EVER to listen to over and over after a breakup. Doesn't matter if you're male or female, it hits you in the gut and summarizes all the feelings that you're going through.

Driving to this song is perfection, all the chaos dissolves away and you're just lost in the music. Stevie Nicks really does take us away for awhile when she's singing.

Back in the day of the 45 single....the flip side of Go You Own Way...I think. Not too sure, but I do own it....in my pile of old 45s. LOVED it then, LOVED the new version.

Crazy how it just keeps getting better and better. Stevie Nicks -- Mick was definitely right to bring her into the band; while leaving this song off may have seemed to have been a bad idea, unless this is the original recording, maybe something about it wasn't quite "ready for prime time."
Hauntingly hypnotic, as is most work by Stevie Nicks. And she's probably more comely now than in her youth -- and that's saying a lot (and I love the pics of her here). Thanks for the video.

Leaving this song off of the "Rumours" album was a huge mistake; it could have been Fleetwood Mac's first Number One!

I can't think of a FM song I don't like - but this one after all these yearsstill causes me great emotion. Who can't say "I Know I Could Have Loved You, But You Would Not Let Me." GREAT PRESENTATION! Thanks

How many of you get chills when you hear Fleetwood Mac? Do any of you feel like crying like a little baby listening to Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham sing and play together?

Wench098 10 months ago
@EvanesEmperor This song makes me cry too. Especially "you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you". I saw a video of them performing this song live and the look that Stevie gave Lindsey during the last verse was enough to rip someones heart out, so sad. Might get to see them this summer, really hope they do this song!

@EvanesEmperor The videos from Stevie singing this song to Lindsey on the Dance tour are just haunting. I think even after all these years they both love each other, but they know they never will be together. I think the sound of Stevie's voice will always haunt Lindsey. You can just feel it. This song makes me emotional and is one of the few Fleetwood Mac songs that gives me the chills while listening to it.

LOVE Stevie Nicks! I'll see her March 20th in Ft. Lauderdale on her Heart and Soul tour with Rod Stewart. I hope she sings Silver Springs...an absolute favorite of mine. Nicks is the coolest female artist of all time!
Anyone know what the set list is on this tour? I can't find it!

This is a cool song. It was originally intended to be part of the rumours album but the producers thought "You can go your own way" was a better fit. I wish they would have used this cut instead. (Im 99% sure it was 'go your own way ' that was used
instead but it may have been another cut--- I just remember thinking that Silver would have been better and made a kick-ass album all the better!! Thanks for the posting!!!!!
