  • rare live appearance of this song because i dont think he sings it anymore ! thanks for posting !!

  • Where are the Griswalds?

  • coming to florida but sold out

  • This is a great song, I am a HUGE fan of all the vacation movies. Chevy is one of my all time favorite actors.

  • @neweramaze I LOVE Chevy as well !!!! He was quite a handsome man when he was younger !!! :)

  • @juliec1215 "i think your all fucked in the head we're ten hours away from the fucking fun park and you want to bail out well this is no longer a vacation its a quest a quest for fun we're goona need plastic surgery to remove our god damn smiles" lol i ove that line

  • You all wish you got 1/50th the amount of pussy as The Buckingham. BOW BEFORE HIS GREATNESS.

  • I was born in 1980 30 years ago and I've never been more nostalgic for the 80's than I am now. This song takes me back to those great years of being just a small kid. It was a magical fun time for me and I love the music, fashions and movies of the 80's. This was a great song and the theme for the National Lampoon movies. I love it! Long live the 80's!

  • He still has the same voice here that he had on his live performances with the mac all them years back.

  • is this lindsey by himself or is he with fleetwood mac

  • @brickmaster24 He wasn't with Fleetwood Mac, it was when he was on a tour himself with his band.

  • @juliec1215 ok thanks i wanna see fleetwood mac in concert do you think they play this when i saw the eagles they played a lot of there solo stuff

  • @brickmaster24 - I saw Fleetwood Mac and no, they didn't play this

  • @brickmaster24 he was by himself

  • Would be 10 times cooler if they had still shots of the cast of the movie while they play this song, like when the Who had pictures during their Canadian "final " tour.

  • GOD! HE IS GODª

  • Will he ever get to speak on "What Up With That"?!?!?!

  • no , he wasn't playing to a recording

  • I love him. Is he playing to a recording?

  • Holiday Oh ooooh ooh ooh oh ooh ooh ooh oh ohhh

  • Man he is old now :-o he whas handsome when he whas young.

  • He is still IS handsome, in my opinion anyways !! :)

  • @juliec1215 yeah, I'm with you. He's aged, but he's aged well. Those eyes still nail me to the wall. :)

  • @juliec1215 I so agree with you! he gets better through the years. like a fine wine does. (btw I totally stole that quote from someone else :P)

  • @MrRambo4

    Lindsey is totally still handsome. It's not very easy to see that with this vid (which is great) but he is.

  • Comment removed

  • After seeing how he ended the song... maybe he is still using hard drugs!!?? Ha..just kidding..

    This is GREAT and I honestly believe he's healthy...and having fun these days! What a great guitarist... and great voice too!! :-)

  • Keaka be nimble, Keaka be quick =) Thanks Julie... you did good!

  • Thanks !! :)

  • Can you believe its been 27 years since we first went down the Holiday Road with the Griswolds? Time sure flies doesn't it?

  • @Surfer041 omg haha

  • I have been a huge fan since the early 1970's. I saw Lindsey in concert live in Orlando in March of 2007, It was amazing! He looks and sounds incredible! He is so hot and sexy! I also saw him in concert in 1974ish for the Rumors tour and then in 1986ish for the Tango in the night tour (both in Philadelphia)and again in 1999 for the Dance tour.(This one in Orlando), and him alone in March of 2007(also Orlando). Hoping to see him again and again!

  • I'm sure a lot of people were saying "Holy shit,it;s the song from VACATION! That was Lindsey Buckingham?"

  • I am indeed one of those shocked. I saw this vid on VH1 classics and had difficulty putting 2 and 2 together. Great tune though!

  • @Chrisdrumz me included. i never knew.. ha ha im glad i finally found out.

  • Fantastic, thanks for posting.

  • i like the fifties style

  • You did a great job julliec1215! Lindsey looks terrific; nice and trim! What fun memories :-D 10+ stars!

  • thnaks so much!!!

  • Yes, this was written for National Lampoon's Vacation.

  • Was this song written specifically for National Lampoon vacation?

  • I do believe so !!!

  • idk but i want an answer HA

  • The sound is bad man!

  • OMG!!!!! This is by far the coolest thing posted on Youtube. THANK YOU!!!

  • Thanks so much !!!!! :)

  • this was an awesome post..

    I have always loved this song..

    it's just so off the wall..

    almost like a punk song..

    then again punk was the thing at the time this song was done..

    Only thing I always tried to figure out..

    what is with the dog barks at the end of the song?? Is one of the band members a werewolf or something??? he he he..

    Seriously it's a great song.. Too bad it's so short though.. I wish it were longer..

  • Yeah, its an awesome song and its my favourite and the number one amongst the classics, i agree with you that its sad thats it only is as short as 2 minutes, it wouldnt be bad with another verse and the refrain two or three more times :D I've always loved this song to, its awakening so many feelings within me somehow..

  • the barking is part of the song. The band did the barking! lol

  • hell, i love this song as i love national lampoons vacation ^^

  • one of the most under rated guitarist of all time!

  • He is just gorgeous up close. ANd a really nice person,I send Michigan Cherries to them everytime and he and his band are great.

    Loved Wally Walfredo Reys Jr too!

    Here comes the doggies

  • This is sooo awsome. I dident know that he did this song. I must have been living under a rock.

  • No you weren't. I only knew this song as the national lampoon vacation opening theme. Or I guess both of us were living under rocks.

  • Yeah....actually you must have been under a rock or else had your head hiding somewhere as the credits rolled during the movie...Plus...if this was a song you liked you would have searched to find out who sang it.... Ha!!

  • juliec, you are so right, this is AWESOME!

    top post, lol.

  • Saw a video clip of him singing 'Say goodbye to you' with Stevie Nicks about the same time, 2006, and thought he was absolutely gorgeous, much hunkier than when he was young. He was too pretty when he was young. Agree: you need to see him close - perfect face, tall, talented.

  • Lindsey IS the finest individual

  • no, I am not blind!!!!! He is one HOTT looking man !!! You need to see him up close to know that!

  • yeah and you must be blind

  • oh mu god he looks like a 70 years old man, my father got 60 years old and looks so young

  • He doesn't look like a 70 year old man!! He looks damn good to me! lol :)

  • I can't believe he played this live!!

    Wish he would add this to the Fleetwood Mac shows!

  • Holly day roa oa oa oa ooo oa oa oa d!

  • Fuckin rawks, thanks man!!!

  • i never knew he sang this song and i know the Lampoon movies from start to finish! ahaha i love it!:D

  • "Well, I think Normie will understand when he sees the note we pinned on Edna's sleeve."

    "Sure, Clark - you left his dead mother tied to a lawn chair in his back yard. I'm SURE he won't mind."

  • Probably the BEST tune from Lindsay Buckingham! "TROUBLE" and "IT WAS I" on the "Law And Order" album go on 2nd position as I think! I also remark the "retro era" tendency of this artist thats make the a powerful one!

  • Thanks for sharing this!  It rocks!

  • Thanks for bringing back that sound of my teenage years of the 80's. Chevy, Nat. Lampoon, all awesome.

  • i always like the back-up vocals on this song

  • "I think you're all fucked in the head!"

    "Hey look kids! Big Ben!"

    "The Shitter was full!"

    "Where can I get some damn bait?"

  • lolol

  • "I'm so hungry I could eat a sandwich from a gas station"

  • "Merry Chrsitmas.. Shitter was Full!!" ahahahah

  • Holiday ROOOADDDDDD

  • I've been listening to this for the last hour, and I'm sober.

    Yep, I'm white, and a child of the 80s.

  • This is Aunt Edna's favorite song.

  • haha

  • i love vegas vacation and lindsey song holiday road and im only a kid

  • Go Griswold's!

  • I was driving from Superior, Wi to Kansas City, MO. and this tune came on the radio. Talk about a "pick-me-up"! Total feel good song!

  • Always makes me smile!!! Woof Woof!!!

    Penny

  • ALways makes me Happy to hear Holiday Road--Woof Woof!!

    Penny

  • That would be great! I just looked at tour dates, and he's not coming to Michigan at all. :( Looking forward to seeing more live videos!

  • I'm so jealous that you've seen Lindsey live in concert. Awesome video! I am so with everyone who said he still looks great, too! Thanks so much for posting!

  • He is great in concert!!! I am going to see him in Miikwajkee Wisconsin on October 4th, 2008 ! I will try to get some more vids!!!

  • Honey have you checked our shitters?

  • love this tune, and being that its Mr. B's tune is even more awesome..

  • A wonderful performer and a great song.

    Dan

  • excellent song live, i was at 2 of these concerts for free in 2006 and went backstage. my uncle is actually the one who plays the barking at the end of this song, among other things:)

  • That is so cool ! I went to quite a few of his shows. I just LOVE Lindsey ! Who is your Uncle?

    I would have LOVED to gone backstage, but I have no connections to do that.

  • His name is Chris Vannoy (normally goes by Lindsay Vannoy), hes no longer touring with Lindsey but when he was I went to 2 of these concerts, one in North Hampton, MA and another in Boston. Good stuff:)

  • You are soooo lucky!!!!

  • really? thats cool

  • Love this song and video. Wish I knew how to send it to myspace site...

    Great work. Makes me smile every time.

  • "is this your idea of a good restraunt, DOG KILLER!!?"

    "You all didn't get to meet Dinkys last night, he had the sh*ts so he slept in the barn"

  • Oink Oink my good man!!!

  • Theme song of my rides to FL and Back with my WONDERFUL Bro...In Memory (Grizz, we miss ya)

  • "Clark, the dog peed on the sandwiches!"

  • what a great concert

  • this song is a cult classic. brings back so many memories of watching those eighties chevy chase movies. nice.

  • Yup. this song is really good and fits well with the vacation movies

  • i wish chevy would return.

  • Oh god i love that man!! hes so fine lookin after all these years! he needs to be people magazines sexiest man alive!!

  • I even told him at one of the shows just that !!!!

  • He's still hot. :)

  • OMG ! YES he is !!!!!!

  • I wouldnh't mind if Lindsay drove down my holiday road, i mean town!!!!!. Val.

  • lmao - I feel the same way !!!!!!!!!!

  • Holiday Road aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaoh-oh-oh! :p

  • AWESOME SONG

  • i can't believe he sang this in concert...chevy should've joined him onstage

  • lmao that wouldve made my life

  • I was at this show ( ive even seen the taper down from me -lol -and wondered when this would turn up ) its one thing to see lindsey buckingham on youtube but its another to see him live , I have been to lots of shows and seen lots of acts but lindsey really is all that live !

  • Nice video. He also did Holiday Road in NYC last year when I saw him on tour. I just wish he would stop doing so many of his great songs with the acoustical guitar (like Big Love, Go Insane, etc) and do them the way he recorded them using an electric rock guitar. I also wish he would do 80% of the songs in his Out of the Cradle album, which kicks the ass of any other album of his.

  • I TOTALLY agree with the Out Of The Cradle album, I wish he did more of those on this tour, but overall, his tour just ROCKS !!!!

  • To the poster who said he can't sing, you are clearly a dumbass because it sounds just like it did in the movie.

    Some people are clueless...

  • I TOTALLY agree with you !!! Lindsey is just awesome, to me, anyways!!!

  • He's always played this song on his solo tours, don't know what the previous poster is referring to.

  • @dpearsondeerpark I saw him twice during the "Out Of The Cradle", and he didn't perform it.

  • Puxa, ele já tá meio baleado... mas a música é muito legal, gosto muito...hehe..

  • That is the stupidest ending with the barking.

  • Dont get me wrong.... awesome awesome song, but stupid to keep going on with the barking.

  • Probably cause he sounds like crap singing it live... to me at least he does.

  • Hell no !! I love when he sings it LIVE !! I saw him 3 times last year, and once already this year. I think it's great!

  • WHy did he refuse to sing it?

  • Get over it Linz, you're way too cerebral. Have fun.

  • WOW! I'm glad he's lightened up and decided to FINALLY play this song on tour. I know he used to absolutely refuse to consider playing it. JulieC, thanks so much for posting this!!

  • I've for some reason got the sudden urge to take a road trip across the USA in an old family station wagon :D

    Great video!!

  • OMG he is soooo cute...I like him doing this happy song! The video he made of it way back when is cool!

  • Haha at the ending.
