@eadaAriel Do you know the backstory of this group? There were two divorces in the making when they were recording their best works, FLEETWOOD MAC and RUMOURS. When they are asked about how they came to make their breakthrough hits, the breakups they were going through are always emphasized. In the same way, many people had trouble relating or marrying in those days, in part because they discovered that there are not always easy answers and you can't live on acid forever.
thats the kind of classic FwM songs you want to hit your head againts the wall and cry out loud every f..... time.Lindsey's music and Steve vocal is unbeatebly . Look for Lindsey concert in New Jersey in Nov . 2011
I wouldn't want to have lived in that time period...people need to stop looking through rose colored glasses. The 70s had just as many problems as today...
Can remember public skating at North Oshawa Arena ( Oshawa Ontario ) and skating with my little sweetie to this song blaring in the background! Wa. about 10 years old.. maybe 11! great memories!
Rumors..classic album. My parents played this when i was young. We recently visited their house and second hand news played on the radio...mum and dad sang every word. Takes you back
In an article in Newsweek a few years ago was a short biography of ABBA. One passage read "their love lives pulled a 'Fleetwood Mac'" and I laughed my butt off. To imagine that everyone in western society knew exaclty what it meant to "pull a fleetwood mac" was too much. To go down in Rock history as the group to forever represent a full blown s3xual meltdown. I laugh as I type this posting!
Btw, thanks for the great cut from an album that defined the '70s.
@Clairexxoo im 15 as well and i complely agree with both u guys. i wish our generation made more of this music as opposed to the BS we have to listen to on the radio these days.
You've got the right sow by the ear on that one! The music today lacks the intensity and punch it had in the '70s. The problem isn't so much the artists, although they too are a victim of this pathetic environment they've had to grow up in. It's that it's all about the "bottom-line", and commercialism has run a muck in the music industry, like everywhere else. It's all about CONTROL, and that sucks. I thank God I grew up in the early '70s, but enjoy your youth, while you've still got it.
I'm 22 and I grew up listening to Fleetwood Mac. I now have a 2 year old son and ALL we listen to is Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Cyndi Lauper and other Alternative Rock bands and artists. I'll never forget these lyrics and I love how happy my son is jumping around and dancing to "Go Your Own Way" and "Bennie and the Jets"
I love my Mom for this. <3
btw, My parents are Ethiopian/Native America/White and African American/Native American.
@eadaAriel Everybody has their day in the sun. The 70's had their ups and downs. It's not the year of your youth but rather what you do with it. Things today are different and times are hard, but things then were tough too. Don't stress out on things beyond your control. Enjoy the music and be a kid. This is an exciting time to be young. :o )
@Thadesgal WOW! Deserves a combo thumbs up. I think the same thing about this people who says "I love 70's, 80's" for everything, while listening old music in a super old Ipod.
@Thadesgal I think people miss the caliber of songwriting from the '70s -- Carole King, James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac -- people are starving for non-formulaic, heartfelt, real storytelling. And the warmth of a vinyl record...
@brinpol That's the problem. Lovely that the Web has allowed us to search for talents who are relatively obscure, but the culture is dominated by flaky, non-substantive pop stars who have to whore out products to build their 'brands'. True SONGWRITING talent is rarely celebrated widely these days. You just need to take the time out to observe the media, brinpol.
@sbranco12 Um, no. I know it's easier to bitch and whine on Youtube, but if people spent less time complaining, they would find a ton of great stuff out there. Start with Adele, as one example. You just need to take the time to stop complaining and be proactive.
@adamfly1 why do people complain about today's music, you aren't forced to listen to it! there were bands in the 70's that people didn't like, they didn't complain like little bitches.
@GlenMccafferty Oh sorry to strike your little nerve. Go back to listening to your justin bieber cause you made it clear you like him more than fleetwood mac...
i picked this record up for my girlfriend for when she comes home from away as a gift and i put it on the record player to hear it and now i half dont wanna give her the album its so amazing lol jk i am gonna give her the album
I remember my Mum playing this non-stop when I was a kid and singing it at the top of my lungs in the back of her car. I just bought it on CD, and this still sounds fantastic!! Great music never gets old. :-) x
Man, that guitar solo!
