Stevie wrote the chorus (for another piece called The Chain which was quite different in tone - never recorded). Lindsey wrote the verses (in addition to all the guitar parts). Lindsey as main arranger/producer for the group is the one that pieced and physically spliced the song together when the others didn't think it would work and had left it for dead. He wrote music for, arranged and produced all her other songs with FM including Dreams & Silver Springs - the infamous "diss" tracks. He didn't have to do anything - to quote Stevie about Lindsey - "You're not like other people - you do what you want to" (Throwdown). For him it was always about the music being the best it could.

Fleetwood Mac was founded by Peter Green, Mic Fleetwood, and Jeremy Spencer in 1967. Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined in 1974. The Peter Green version of Fleetwood Mac was more blues orientated. Their song "Oh Well" is definitely worth a listen.

Fun fact: The stop and start style of "Oh Well" was the inspiration for that style in Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog."

More Fleetwood Mac please!! "Dreams", "Seven Wonders", and "Rhiannon" are classics sung by Stevie. And since you started talking about her, I'd really think you need to also get into Pat Benetar....a powerful song to start with is "Hell is For Children", and also check out Joan Jett ("I Love Rock N Roll").

Have to point out at 8:12 those lyrics are from Pat Benatar's Heartbreaker. Lol. It happens.

Christine McVie is often overlooked, but you can hear her on the backing vocals for this song. She takes lead vocals on a few songs, one being "Everywhere". My favorite though is Lindsey on "Never Going Back Again". Please check that one out, it's my favorite

Lindsay Buckingham is one of my guitar heroes, and this song is kind of magical. The Dance version of it is absolutely crazy. But if you haven’t heard that version of Big Love... CHECK IT OUT. Life changer. Edit: Stevie definitely writes her own lyrics most of the time, if not all of the time. You can usually tell when she does because Buckingham’s lyrics are very much more streamlined, let’s say. Go Your Own Way and Never Going Back Again as well as this song and Gold Dust Woman are all on Rumours. BANGER ALBUM. 1977.

The end part of that song used to be used as the introductory theme song for the Formula One auto racing show on British TV. A friend of mine played this album all the time in the late 70s. Fleetwood Mac had 2 re-incarnations - one with British members under Peter Green, and later under Mick Fleetwood when he went to the US and recruited Stevie Nix and Lyndsey Buckingham. The former was a blues band but some of the members imploded after bad drug experiences and Mick Fleetwood had to start again. The music style was completely different then.

Live in BOS is pretty strong too.

The chain is important song to me. One of the first live songs I ever saw when they performed “The dance” concert. Started my love for live music at 5 years old!

Fleetwood Mac is home to several of the most intense break ups in music, all happening simultaneously. Guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were originally a Pop duo called Buckingham Nicks and were in a long term relationship with each other, while Fleetwood Mac were mostly a Blues Rock band, starting with a whole other lineup, but the main members consisting of Mick Fleetwood on Drums, John McVie on Bass, and Peter Green as vocalist. Green's era was pretty popular and lasted a while but he ultimately left. Along the way, John McVie brought on his wife Christine McVie on keyboards. The band were on quite a dry streak, coming out with many albums but not really making any noticeable hits. Then in 1975, Buckingham Nicks and Fleetwood Mac merged into one Fleetwood Mac with those 5 members, and they became one of the biggest bands in the world with just their first album together, simply titled Fleetwood Mac. Then it got messy... By the time it came for their next album, Rumours, to be written and recorded, Christine suddenly divorced John, shocking the whole band, especially John as he had no idea it was coming, and understandably, it left him broken. Around the same time, Stevie decided to end her relationship with Lindsey, and this break up had a lot more anger that the McVies'. To make matters worse, Mick's wife outside the band was found to have been having an affair with one of his closest friends, ending his marriage as well. This was a death sentence to the entire band, for no band would even consider continuing their career after this mess of inner ring personal fallouts. But they did. They continued and didn't let their personal lives cloud their professional lives. They all went head first into their music, writing songs and passing musical ideas with each other, and it was the most tense and awkward 7 months you could imagine. Despite their efforts, arguments and fights broke out constantly and both genders of the band had lived in completely separate locations during the recording. One wouldn't expect this album to survive or sound as any form of a unified effort once finished... Rumours was released on February 4th, 1977, and it sold over 10 million copies in its first month alone, currently now sold a claimed 40 million records worldwide, making it the 9th best selling album of all time! It was more than a hit record, it was a marvellous achievement because their struggles weren't exact under the radar. Tabloids would spread their breakup news to every conceivable stretch and when fans found out they were still coming out with a new album, it was intriguing at the least and heavily anticipated at the most. You've definitely heard at least 4 or 5 songs off this album at some point in life; Dreams, Go Your Own Way, The Chain, Don't Stop, Gold Dust Woman, Songbird, You Make Loving Fun, all of these songs were hits or would become massive fan favourites! It was an album created with the intention that any song could be a hit single and they had to narrow it down to 4 singles, which you could imagine was difficult. Since the album and despite their break-ups, Fleetwood Mac are still a massively popular band. They've gone through several lineup changes but the core members have always returned, even for just brief reunions. Though some may see Stevie Nicks as the star of the band, each member was important. Lindsey Buckingham is a phenomenal guitarist who doesn't even need a pick, as well as an impressive vocalist (he was singing lead on this song with Stevie providing co-Lead and backing). Christine McVie is an excellent keyboardist and a beautiful vocalist as well, and Mick Fleetwood and John McVie make up a solid rhythm section that they've maintained their entire career, hence both being the namesakes of the band.

Fleetwood Mac has been around for years. Even before Stevie and Lindsay joined. Mac's original sound was more blues based and in fact were the first artist to record Black Magic Woman before Santana did. Lindsay and Stevie joined in 74. They get credit for singing most of the well known songs, but don't leave out Christine McVie. Her vocal is perhaps more higher range compared to Stevie's raspy voice. Don't Stop, Say That You Love Me, Songbird are the more well known Christine songs. Rumors is by far their highest selling album by far. Essentially a whole album of relationships written while the band members were experiencing break up and divorces. Out of the pain came such wonderful art.

I respect people who listen to music in other genres, particularly from decades ago. Hell, my playlist has Big Band music from the 30s & 40s on it. FYI, this song is phenomenal when heard on vinyl spinning on a turntable and a great set of headphones. Nothing better.

Rubbish! Christine McVie was the heart and soul of The Mac. She wrote the music for this with Buckingham. Stevie Nicks wrote the lyrics.

The Chain, Go Your Own Way, and many other great songs are on the album Rumours, which many consider to be their masterpiece (including me, at least in the Buckingham/Nicks era). During the making of Rumours they were all doing lots of coke and in the middle of breakups and turmoil. Lindsay and Stevie were having a not very friendly breakup, Christine and John McVie (the bass player) were getting divorced, among other things, yet they still worked together professionally and made this iconic album. They kept making other albums after too . Of course now Stevie (who is definitely alive) and Lindsay had another falling out and she basically kicked him out of the band. Silly kids. There are three lead singers in the band; Stevie of course, Lindsay Buckingham who is also the guitarist, and Christine McVie, who is also the keyboardist. They each take the lead on different songs, or sometimes share vocals (The Chain is Lindsay and Stevie) or sing backup. When Fleetwood Mac started they were a blues rock band, and the guitarist was Peter Green, widely considered one of the greats. Then there was an intermediate period with different people before Buckingham and Nicks (who were a couple at the time) joined and they went a more pop rock direction that most know. I like both the Peter Green and the Buckingham/Nicks eras, but the two eras are really very different bands.

It was Pat Benatar who sang Heartbreaker.

Morning y'all! Oh hell yes! I'm a huge Fleetwood Mac/Stevie nicks fan! I grew up listening to those records that my mom would play. Try checking out "dreams","seven wonders" "sara"( my personal fav is "gypsy"!.) You can't go wrong with Fleetwood Mac!! Thanks guys!❤️🤓

Pat benater is still singing today with like 20 plus albums out

Miss Stevie is still running around. Recent covers of this song were done by The Highwomen, which is a female country supergroup, and by Harry Styles. I believe Stevie sang this with Harry live somewhere. In his Howard Stern interview, Harry said he asked her opinion of his last album before he released it, and they hung out some. He said Stevie stayed up later than he did 😂

Most recent place I know of this some was in one of the guardians of the Galaxy movies. I've got Cassettes and Vinyl recordings from my dad back when he gave me his collection from long,long ago.

Please listen to "you make loving fun" it's on the same album "rumours" and it's so funky

Had that stuck in my head. While it is Benatar, I always hear it in the chipmunk voices. Don't know if you remember Alvin, Simon and Theodore but they rocked it on vinyl doing a bunch of classics. Ah memories heh.

Obviously, Lindsey and Stevie kill it on this song, along with the rhythm section: John McVie on bass and Mick Fleetwood on drums. Often overlooked, Christine McVie's background vocals are the perfect touch to make this song a killer!

You should check out Big Love by Fleetwood Mac, the acoustic live version from their The Dance tour

Stevie Nicks is still with us. And half of what you said about her coke habit is an urban myth. She did do mountains of cocaine, but none of it touched her posterior. "The Chain" is guitarist Lindsey Buckingham's song. He's singing lead on this, but Stevie and Christine are on powerful backing vocals. Glad you enjoyed this - keep up the good work.

Pat Benatar sang Heartbreaker! She had a lot of Hits and was Huge in the 80's

Bone thugs sampled this back in the day, track called “Wind blow”

Billy Corgan from The Smashing Pumpkins often gave them a lot of props. He even had his band cover "Landslide" which sounds AMAZING.

They were an English blues band pre Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham joining. The great Peter Green featured in this era. Then when the US duo joined much later they enjoyed HUGE commercial success. The genius behind it all was Lindsay Buckingham, th guitarist writer producer etc. They were also romantic partners which influenced their musical output greatly when they parted ways in less than harmonious circumstances and the Rumours album captured all the emotion and drama of the bands dysfunctional personal relationships hence The Chain

There have been many incarnations of Fleetwood Mac, and they are all worth checking out. From the early days I recommend Albatross (gorgeous instrumental) ,Black Magic Woman, Green Manalishi, an Oh Well to start with. You should read up on the amount of guitarists they've lost over the years for various dramatic reasons. They've had more drama than a soap opera, did more drugs than pretty much anyone is the 80s (allegedly) but channelled it into the music. 3 excellent singer songwriters in one band shouldn't work, but it did (although it became extremely toxic)

Lindsay Buckingham is the one that wrote most of the stuff, in this version of Fleetwood Mac. And his such an underrated guitarist. Peter Green is "off the chain" in the 60s version, when they were a blue band. (Another underrated guitarist) Try "Oh well". Fleetwood Mac had I of the craziest histories in Rock music

Three members of Fleetwood Mac were vocalists: Stevie Nicks is the most popular vocalist in the band. Lindsey Buckingham would provide male vocals in addition to the guitars. Christine McVie would also provide female vocals. To get a feel for Christine's vocals, check out their song "You Make Loving Fun". Her ex-husband, John McVie, is the bass guitarist for the band. His skills are seriously under-appreciated.

Awesome song!❤👏👍

Rumours is one of the best albums ever. It's absolutely worth listening to from beginning to end. BUT Dreams and You Can Go Your Own Way have a particular story; Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham were breaking up. Dreams is written by Stevie; You Can Go Your Own Way by Buckingham, both about the break-up. Would be amazing to see a reaction video to both of those one after the other! And then there's You Make Loving Fun, written and sung by Christine McVie, about the affair she was having with the lighting director... Whatever fucked-up stuff was going on, it made this album a timeless classic.

The whole Rumors album is worth checking out. Another favorite! ✌🏻💛🎼

“Go Your Own Way” is a must for one of next your Fleetwood Mac reactions. It was the lead off single from Fleetwood Mac’s biggest album ever “Rumours” which this track (“The Chain”) is also on.

You guys should just listen to the whole "Rumours" album (which this song in on). It's an up and down classic. And yes Stevie writes all her own lyrics on the songs she sings. "Go Your Own Way" is also on the album, and several other big hits. 1977.

First head this on headphones walking down street, and the bass drop nearly knocked me off my feet with shock, blew my mind! 🙏❤️🤣🤣

The back story makes the song. It was birthed during Stevie nicks and Lindsay Buckinghams break-up. The emotion of it all is the source of its creativity and you can still feel it.

I always liked the Fleetwood Mac song "Little Lies" from 1987. The song "Tusk" is a great song also.

I wish you guys would sequential it go through that whole album. It wasn't a debut album like Van Halen or Boston, but it's still one of those albums that just became iconic. That doesn't really happen very often. And everything on it has got to be fire. And with this album it is. And yet it's all across the map all of them just totally Kick-Ass and we're so incredibly creative in their own ways and they found a way to come together.

That song was on Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2

“You make lovin fun” is a MUST!

That was fun, always nice to see people discover new sounds. It's off 'Rumours', 1977. Amusing you talked about Stevie Nicks so much when the lead singer on this one was Lindsey Buckingham . . . and I don't think you realised it. 🤔 For another led by Lindsey (he's a 'he' by the way) try 'Go Your Own Way' (my favourite FM song) or 'Peacekeeper'. For the other singer in the band, try the lovely voice of Christine McVie on - from Rumours - 'Oh Daddy' or 'You Make Loving Fun'. Or from a later album, 'Little Lies' or 'Isn't It Midnight'. Never forget the amazing drumming of Mick Fleetwood either. Fleetwood Mac isn't Stevie's band!

Don’t tell my wife, but I’m still in love with Stevie Nicks. Most of us from the 70’s still are… “Rhiannon” Live from 1976 is a great Fleetwood Mac performance.

Loved that song when I was a kid. Got Rumours for Christmas 1977, I was barely 13. The Chain was my favorite song on the album at that time. Grew up with the Mac. Mirage came out my senior year in high school. Dug that album. Love from California.

Judas priest covered an early Fleetwood Mac song. The green manlishi. Both versions are great. That was before Stevie nicks.

One of the best albums of all time👍

Fleetwood Mac is so much more than just what Stevie Nicks added when she and Lindsey Buckingham joined. They started in the London blues scene in about 1967, led by the late Peter Green, and with Mick Fleetwood and John McVie (Mac) comprising the rhythm section, as those two did for their entire career. That's where the name comes from. They had sort of a cult following until Green passed away. The next incarnation featured Bob Welch who added a bit of a pop touch to the songwriting. The "famous" lineup -- Fleetwood, John McVie, his wife Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham was the formula that propelled them to superstar status from like 1975 to the early 80's. Buckingham and Nicks was a band comprising those two before they joined Fleetwood Mac. The band's internal relationships and abundant cocaine use led to some true industry legends 🙂and some fantastic songs!!

Off the top of my head, mega monster albums from the 1970s: 🔸️Rumors (Fleetwood Mac) 🔸️Frampton Comes Alive (Peter Frampton) 🔸️Physical Graffiti (Led Zeppelin) 🔸️Close to the Edge (YES) 🔸️Hotel California (Eagles) 🔸️Dark Side of the Moon (Pink Floyd) ...and so many more, because the 1970s were incredibly prolific times for rock music and everything that went with it, including, but not limited to, giant speakers, stash boxes, and late night rock radio with some of the best DJs who brought us the magic. Today, some of that magic has been brought to music lovers through reaction content creators such as yourselves.

"Heartbreaker" is sung by Pat Benatar, who has an amazing voice.

As noted below, Fleetwood Mac initially started in the sixties with guitar legend Peter Green leading. Blues rock, hard rock, and other styles. Listed to Oh Well or the Green Manalishi with a three pronged crown.

Fleetwood Mac has been in my brain since birth. They’re timeless. I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it.

This is a very rare FMac song that features all of the band members. Stevie of course, Lindsey Buckingham on vocals and bombass guitar, and the OG members, Christine McVie, who is an awesome vocalist in her own right, John McVie on killer bass and Mick Fleetwood on great drums. That's where the name Fleetwood Mac came from. This song is about the travails of their various relationships breaking apart. My absolute favorite by them. 💯💯💯

What you don't know about Fleetwood Mac is that originally, they started out as a Blues band as Mick Fleetwood (drummer), and the bass player McVie actually were in John Mayall and the Blues Breakers!! Peter Green and a host of others were all men doing Badassed blues tunes!! (gotta check out earlier tunes such as "Oh Well "!!) Christie eventually joined the band on Keyboard as the first female in the band and was a Great Vocalist in her own rite witnessed by songs such as "Everywhere ", "You Make Loving Fun" (despite Stevie Nicks in on that too but not the lead), "Over My Head", "Don't Stop ", and "Songbird "just to name a few!! Then after Bob Welsh left the band after the demise of Peter Green and Company, Mick Fleetwood hired Lyndsey Buckingham who was in an American band with his partner Stevie Nicks joined the band and the rest is History!!

Stevie Nicks absolutely writes all her lyrics. She writes in poetry.

Heartbreaker is by Pat Benatar released in 1979 You're a heartbreaker Dream maker, love taker Don't you mess around with me You're a heartbreaker Dream maker, love taker Don't you mess around, no, no, no

One of my favorite songs of all time. Very cool that you caught it and knew what it was (Maybe it was The Guardians of the Galaxy ). Yup, that bass is nasty! I've been with y'all since the beginning and I've requested a song many times. Thought I'd try again. Jane's Addiction~Three Days. Hopefully I can see a reaction from the both of you. I don't think ya'll will be disappointed. There are soooooo many amazing songs from Jane's Addiction to react to as well. Three Days is my all time favorite song from them. An amazing composition!

Most Americans think that Fleetwood Mac started when Stevie and Lyndsay joined the band. However I saw Fleetwood Mac in the late sixties when they were a blues band, they wrote and released Black Magic Woman. They also had a UK #1 hit with Albatross. They then had several pop releases when Christine Perfect and Bob Welch joined the band. More recently they had Tim Finn from Crowded House was lead singer for Fleetwood Mac.

This song makes me hyped for Guardians of Asgard I mean, of the Galaxy. Anyways, I hope they get to one of the songs sung by the other female singer. Sadly, I forget her name but You Make Loving Fun is a good one to listen to I think.

The tension between them during this song ! It's classic to watch old videos and see it. My mom tells me stories about seeing them live and experiencing it. Such a classic song !
