  • an achingly beautiful song.

  • Stevie has the voice of an Angel!!!! She is, and always will the BEST :)

  • 5 people had bad childhood

  • awesome i love you fleetwood :D

  • "Too trusting, yes, but then women usually are." Rhythmically, that's a hard lyric to fit in this kind of song, but Stevie made it work!

  • Stevie and whole bunch=Fw Mac just awesome performers :) Thx letting us enjoy ur songs

  • this song is so beautifull!

  • To all of my beautiful children!

  • The Christine's vocals are monumental. Absolutely spectacular.

  • moving....

  • This is so beautiful. I like to think of River phoenix when I listen to this song.

  • beautiful song what ever happened to the real music?? fleetwood mac, pink floyd ect they were the best music days!!

  • One of Stevie Nick's best and most beautiful songs. Thank you for posting.

  • @Thewaubs ~ I agree. YW and thanks for commenting!

  • love this song too. She is such an amazing singer and songwriter .. this is one of my favorites..Love you Stevie...

  • too trusting yes, and woman usually are.............. that hits home 4 me :(

  • favorite Fleetwood song. timeless.

  • This song is timeless. I have always loved this song. Very special!

  • Hi

    i am a long standing fan, words and voice are beautiful, makes me cry from time to time, x

  • Tusk was kind of a convoluted album because of all the friction in the band at the time and because Lindsey wanted to stretch his wings and experiment musically a bit. But still there is some fabulous music on that album, this song being my favorite of all of them.

  • The only woman I've ever seen to carry the title of "legend" with such grace and she deserves it. I hope she lives to be 110. She speaks to all generations and makes me get chills every time she sings.

  • Way beyond the wishes i could pretend to wish for. I Love this Gift. Thank You.

  • Just Beautiful

  • simply beautiful..

  • beautiful

  • This is certainly one of my personal favorites. It would have been awesome to be in the studio while the vocals were being recorded.

  • one of the best Mac Songs... thanks for posting!

  • @prober45 ~ It sure is!! YW :)

  • It resonates with me that she had a difficult childhood and she can now see this so love her parents from afar, it's better for her this way ~

  • @TJoMcIntyre I never knew she had a bad childhood. What happened?

  • It's taken me forever & a day to find your videos. I'm 1 of the biggest Mac fans ever and I love Stevie with all my heart. Her vocals in this song are stunning. It's a haunting song. I think the lyrics spell out pretty clearly what it's about.

    About 30 minutes ago someone told me FM is talking about touring again. I hope so. It's what made me come to Youtube to look them up. A tour in 2012 would be awesome. Their last tour was a resounding success.

    The best band ever.

  • @admky22 stevie nicks is touring in November and she most likely will do this song as she has on other tous

  • wow...that song was beautiful...I got to listen to it for another 10 times to get the meaning but music is much like art/abstract...your own experiences reveal the meaning, your meaning that is..

  • excellent video, beautiful :)

  • @MrBuckwilliam ~Thank You!

  • what a beautiful song and it makes me reflect on my children who are now all adults and have flown their wings onto a new journey in their lives

  • Stevie wrote such beautiful songs "I'm old enough to love you from afar....too trusting, yes, but then women usually are." (goosebumps!)

    This kind of artistry and emotion seems missing from most of today's music.

  • I remember crying my eyes out to sleep one night awhile back because a guy had lost all feelings for me and i was drawn to him like a child is to a new toy....the whole time this song was on replay.....

  • what a gift she is to us

  • stevies a g for this one!

  • I sing this song to my baby nephew when he can't sleep,and he always falls asleep after, now don't get me wrong I sound like a cat that's being strangled in a dark alley but still he manages to fall asleep.

  • beautiful song vrey beautiful 

  • fleetwood mac has been my absolute favorite for over 34 years, and they still manage to astound me at their volume of work. you couldn't find a more beautiful song anywhere, except maybe on another fleetwood mac album!!!

  • call 911... I believe 2 people have quit breathing

  • @prober45 ~ lol! actually just 1 person. The other "dislikes" EVERY video I make. Seriously. Somebody has nothing better to do than make sure all my vids have 1 dislike. Kinda nasty. So I think its more that they dont like me~not Stevie.

  • @Wench098 that pretty sad that someone would do that. i think you make wonderful videos. tell them i said to "get a life..."

  • @lovethemac1 ~thanks!!

  • @lovethemac1 i think your work is beautiful~no pun intended..lol!!! great work!!!!

  • @butterflyJett thank you, but i think you meant to send to Wench098, that's the person who made the video. they do a fabulous job!!!

  • @lovethemac1 oh Dah, sorry ,,,lol!!! and yes Wench098, does do fabulous work, :)))

  • @butterflyJett ~thank you!

  • the personality of Nicks, the lyrics and the tune come together to create something simply divine here

  • seems like i listen to this at least once a day ... i never ever get tired of this ...

  • sheer awesomeness Stevie Nicks is just the greatest.

  • amazing track, she has an amazin voice 1 of the best female singers ive heard..

  • @lynn123ification ~I agree!!!  Thanks for commenting!

  • For Caylee Anthony You'll Always Be In My Prayers, Save A Place In Heaven For Me.

  • This song is hauntingly brilliant.

    Thank you.

  • @beccamorrisfifteen ~It is!! YW :)

  • Beautiful

  • this is an amazing song. they are all so talented. i could listen to stevie, lindsey, christine and fleetwood mac all the time.

  • Love this song. What is it about? i can listen to it over and over! about a married man?

  • @Bellaeileen5 ~A married man named Mick Fleetwood

  • There will never be music like this again because the primary motivation now is money. Bands and artists in those days played for the love of the music, and most never made it big. In today's "American Idol" world, image and flash are all that really matters. If you're not a terrible singer, you can make it based on your show. Thank God I was there before the music industry sold out.

  • there is one way to describe this song and that is achingly beautiful.

  • Beautiful montage, lovely work for an amazing song..not the first time I am hearing, but the first time I really listened! LOL!

  • I dont get why people compare Rumours and Tusk. They are two completely different albums. I think thats the thing I love most about Fleetwood Mac. Is that every one of their records are different from each other and they never cease to amaze me. They arent afraid to take chances and be different. They are so brilliant and I am proud to call them my favorite band.

  • @ErinLindsay13 Unbelievable band...such a mix of talent...not afraid to take chances and express their inner emotions...one of my 2 fav bands, along with U2...

  • @ErinLindsay13 amen to that :)

  • Beautiful montage! Great work for a great song. Stevie is such an iconic artist. I hope my generation will be able to produce an artist that compares to her amazing tone and songwriting. A 21st century Fleetwood Mac-esque band is much needed.

  • @acer750 ~Thanks! Stevie is so original and talented AND a HARD WORKER. So many songs and shows and appearances to promote. Her energy seems endless. Your generation and those to follow have your work cut out for you. Shes a tough act to follow! :)

  • Stevie Nicks has never topped the songs she wrote on Tusk.

  • @GotDemKozmicBlues ~She just may have with her latest,In Your Dreams! AMAZING songs!

  • @GotDemKozmicBlues I totally agree. The five songs on Tusk that Stevie wrote are the best she has EVER recorded. And Beautiful Child is (with Sara) Stevie's masterpiece! What an amazingly beautiful and haunting song. Loved it from the second I heard it. Those vocals are just supreme! Lindsey and Chris also add so much to this song. For me, Stevie hit her pinnacle as a songwriter and singer on Tusk. She's come close, but never reached the zenith she reached on this song and on Tusk.

  • I heard this song for the first time on the live in Boston dvd and it struck me. This is such a beautiful song. Stevie has written many beautiful songs like: gypsy, dreams, landslide, silver springs, sara etc. but I think this might be my favorite.

  • @WatchYourAttitude ~ Storms and Angel are amazing too! Tusk is an amazing album ~underrated cause its not "Rumours" enough to some. I adore Tusk :)

  • @WatchYourAttitude I too first heard this song during the Boston concert. And immediately I connected with this song. Just the way Stevie sings it, I can feel the emotion behind it. One of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs.

  • @DamianGarcia92 I feel exactly the same thing. It's such a beautiful, beautiful song.

  • I dont care what anyone says. Its about LINDSEY.

  • One of the most evocative, provocative Americans of the past 40 years, timeless.

  • One of Stevie Nicks' finest vocals; she is one of the few famous musical stars who is underrated despite her fame and success. If she were male, we'd say genius, icon. She gives and grieves for all of us, the most evocative, provocative American of the past 40 years.

  • in n particular order my top five female singers would be stevie nicks, karen carpenter, alanis morrisette, joni mitchell and recently rumer. all in their own way make the hairs on my head stand. stevie takes me to places in my imagination that are wonderous. go girl.

  • magical harmonies with lindsey.

  • Its obviously about a guy. If you listen to the words shes talking about being in love with a difficult guy. Hes immature and doesn't know what he wants, thats why she says beautiful child.

  • What I love about Fleetwood Mac is the fact that, although every single line of lyric doesn't make sense to me, together the words fit together to create a greater image in the mind. This song is a reflection of the beauty and timeless nature of love, how it is the pen that writes the story of our lives, even when it writes in blood and tears; and it is a warning from someone wiser than myself: love now, love deeply, because "there is so little time!"

  • @AgapiEinai you are a beautfiul writer...

  • @AgapiEinai Well if you did as much drugs as they did, and the same quality, it might make sense to you after all...

  • This song was written for Mick Fleetwood.

  • true legend

  • this song reminds my daughter Rhandzo, i feel like crying when am listen to it.

  • For my only beautiful and sweet child.

  • i am only eleven and since i was six have been in love with macaulay culkin but i was in love with him as a kid around my age and he is constantly with someone else so i know i can never hold him but im old enough to love him and i love him too much to let him go..i want him to take me away but i know i have to stay he is my beautiful child because he had such innocence as a child and now is making mistakes but still a great person i will always love you :)relating to every word in my own way

  • does anyone know where I can find the sheet music for Beautiful Child for piano? I've been looking everywhere online!!

  • does anyone know where I can find the sheet music for Beautiful Child for piano? I've been looking everywhere online!!

  • hey does anyone know where i can find sheet music for beautiful child? for piano? I've been looking for a while now

  • @FireWhisp Aye ye probably have more years behind ye now. Just think on all those mis-spent years. Depressing is it not? :(((((((((((((

  • I think this song is about Lindsey Buckingham, because it sounds a lot like it...

  • Love this! Sad songs make me happy...Love this when it came out,  love it now.

  • a Goddess, gypsy and Texas girl... all rolled up in one fine package

  • this song reminds me of my father, rest in peace. i miss you everyday and will never forget the rules of this awful world you taught me. i am strong, pops.

  • I Can't believe that stevie is#98 on rolling stones list of top 100 singers she should be#1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This song remined me of my ex boyfriend, who was alot older than me when we got together, i know most people think of there children, but i dunno i see another darker meaning! dont know if anyone else reads it the same way as me!

  • @ToriT ~Its about Mick. (I think) Beauty and the Beast is too.

  • @ToriT Totally! It's about Mick Fleetwood... 'I still love you, though we cannot be in love..."

  • @ToriT i know exactly what you mean. i would be very surprised if it was about someone's own child. the lyrics don't suggest that meaning. the lyrics are about an older man and younger woman. eg. you are beautiful child and i am a fool once more. too trusting yes but women usually are. i wish that you were mine even if i never hold you etc.

  • @ToriT - I dont think shes ever explained this one...especially the line "You fell in love when I was only 10" I could be wrong...I would LOVE to hear her talk about this one...this is FM top 5 fo sho

  • @ToriT I always thought the same as you - reminded me always of someone I knew and have now known for many years - and he never married

  • @ToriT I understand completely

  • @ToriT

    oh yeah its about a man an ex lol i dont even see how it would be about my child if i had one, how is it dark?

  • @ToriT agreed. i don't think its about someones child. i think its about a relationship gone bad ... : ( poor stevie, i think mick fleetwood hurt her ...

  • @sorcerer1975 i think she was with lindsey not mick:)

  • @ToriT That's exactly the kind of thing this makes me think of, too. I always find the 'darker' meaning in all of her songs - a lot of things people don't pick up if they haven't gone through it themselves.

  • I am disintegrating into minims, crotchets, quavers...

  • I've listened to Stevie all 22 years of my life and to me this song is about growing older and time slipping away from you, not knowing if you'll ever fall in love again... or if you'll ever be able to cope with a lost love.

    Oh Stevie, my mother of music... you will never grow old in my heart. Your songs have touched me to the core and helped me through the most difficult times in my life, and to that I owe you all the love and respect in the world.

  • i wish that sarah michelle gellar was mine

  • i sampled this song check out

  • an absolute timeless classic...

  • your hand felt mine so few hours....this song allways touched my heart

  • @grubor1962 I have listened to Fleetwood Mac and Stevie since the '70's but I've never heard this song. It's so tender and powerful at the same time. But the line you mentioned "Your hand felt mine so few hours.." My tears started to pour. I lost my bestfriend/hubby when he was only 40. It was sudden and unexpected and he died in my arms while I tried to save him. We were married 11 years and to me, that was just " So few hours". I will never hold him again or get over him.

  • @Msdistarr im very sorry to hear that. it is a beautiful song. please smile when you listen to it and remember the good times you shared

  • one of my altime favorite songs

  • I love go your own way. But does fleetwood mac have anymore up beat songs??

  • @Thehost95 ~Tons! Second Hand News, I Dont Wanna Know, Dont Stop etc :)

  • @Wench098 i prefer the chilled 1s... the women singin. peace x

  • @Thehost95 "The Chain" is pretty up beat. Great song!

  • i never ever get tired of this song ...

  • @sorcerer1975 ~me too! <3

  • omg this is one of my fav fleetwood songs god stevie is a goddess

  • Sublime

  • @BianchiMedia Tusk came out my junior year of high school. Got the 8-track as soon as I could scrape up enough money ( about $5 or so if I remember correctly ). I was so sick of hearing Kool & the Gang, The Bee Gees and Michael Jackson. Among others (especially Heart) Fleetwood Mac gave me music and saved my sanity.

  • The best yessss thankssss !!

  • One of my favorite FM songs. Great clips!

  • beautiful song! :)

  • "I'm tall enough to reach for the stars. I'm old enough to love you from afar." An arrow to the heart of those of us sending kids off to college. I JUST ADORE STEVIE. Can't wait to see her live tomorrow!!!

  • beautiful song. ty..especially poignant as the kids head off to college. Looking forward to experiencing Stevie live tomorrow. "I'm tall enough to reach for the stars, I'm old enough to love you from afar"....arrow to my heart....

  • if you have 5.22 min to spare in you hum drum lives ,have a listen to this & enjoy a beautiful song xxxx

  • joan your passion is powerful!!!

  • @ellegreeko ~Thanks!!! Thats an awesome compliment!

  • @BianchiMedia YW :) Thanks for commenting

  • I play this song when I`m feeling kind of down... It doesn`t make it better, it makes me feel like, it`s okay to be down because you`ll get up again anyway.

  • Stevie Nicks is the best female singer in my eyes because unlike everybody in the music industry today she does not do what she does best for the money she does it because she found her blessing through singing

    and i....i cant listen to this song without crying my eyes out ="(

  • Can't listen without crying my eyes out!

  • this song is literally the song of my life!

  • This song is more than beautiful, this song has helped me through so much pain, thanks for the upload :)

  • What I want to know is how do you write songs like stevie? They are all simply beautiful and so inspirating

  • Love you Stevie!

  • I love this song, been looking for it for a while.

  • My favorite of all stevie live this song is absolutely breathtaking!!

  • Beatiful song...

    Beatiful song...

    You are a beautiful song...

    and I am a fan once more... =)

  • This is surely one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It is just haunting. Great video also!

  • Beautiful song!

  • One of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs -- I was lucky enough to see them perform it live at the Staples Center in 2004. Stevie did it so beautifully -- I'm so glad I had the chance to witness that. The "Say You Will" tour was insanely great. Hopefully they will tour again soon -- I'm itching to see FM live again.

  • Such a beautiful song!

  • i finally got to see fleetwood mac last year - a real dream come true. stevies music helped me to cope with a horrible divorce and all the helpless emotions that go with losing someone you love. thank you stevie. and thanks for posting this.

  • to realise that she wrote at least three songs better than this - Sara, Storms, Silver Springs - is mind-boggling.

  • love this song. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • Really, this is one of the most emotional songs I've ever heard. Definitely in the top 5 category.

  • Hands down one of the most beautiful songs ever!

  • this is one of my all time favorite stevie/ mac songs, love the pics 2 ... tusk is an awsome album ...
