- Earlier this year Fleetwood Mac fired musician Lindsey Buckingham over what they claim was a touring dispute. In an interview with "CBS This Morning: Saturday" co-host Anthony Mason, Buckingham reveals what he believes lead to his ousting and his long and complicated relationship with former bandmate Stevie Nicks.

Every time I hear Lindsey talk, I take his side. Every time I hear Stevie talk, I take her side.
Ain't that just the way it goes. L.O.L
Same here. But I think we're not hearing the whole truth from either one of them, lol.
And the truth is usually in the middle
It is definitely in the middle, the truth that is. Everyone dwells on their own feelings about any conflict.
I used to do that. Now I see Stevie as full of regret and bitter. No man. No kids. * shouldn’t wear those heels, anymore..
They sound like twin flames, even in their songs about each other and how they are now.
What are the songs
The idea of twin flames is just an excuse to perpetuate the toxicity of unhealthy relationships :(
No matter what occurred between these two they made awesome music and it’s still going strong.
The interviewer is great. I like how he doesn't steal the spotlight and also remains neutral. He asks good questions.
You're right. There are other journalists who really could learn a lot from him.
scottjamescouper that would’ve been rude and unprofessional the whole problem with journalist these days
You're very right, Lisa. Here's a glimpse of quality journalism; rather rare.
Yes, you're right. It's so good to see a professional interviewer at work instead of the msm dorks trying to be controversial and just irritating everyone.
He has a mic that takes his voice down several octaves
It's a damned shame. He is the best guitarist the band ever had! His voice was also undeniable unreplaceable!
True talent musically and vocally, natural artist shame they not made like that anymore!
He's one of the best guitarists on teh planet. One of many.
Peter Green was the best they had
His songwriting was pretty good too.
Either Lindsey and Stevie are terrific actors, or there is still a connection there. Makes my eyes water and brings back so, so many good memories. One of the best bands ever.
Stevie wants everyone to think that Lindsey is an awful person and that she was just a foolish little girl who shouldn't be held accountable.
Makes your eyes water for what?🤣😅🤣 chill
Probably a little bit of column A, a little bit of column C
Makes your eyes water? 🙄
What happened ?
Don't forget that there's three sides to every story; Lindsey's, Stevie's, and the truth!
The funny thing is that the truth, which we heard from the band's collaborators long before Lindsey broke his silence on the matter, is completely consistent with Lindsey's story - unlike Stevie's and Mick's story which was debunked almost immediately after it came out.
I know Im kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to watch newly released series online?
And I believe Lindsey's story
He's not hung up on himself
I know some things of which for privacy respect I would never divulge, however, this I can say about Geminis; they have two completely and diametrically opposed sides. Note that I'm not saying two faces, but sides. In Stevie's case, she can hate you, love you, hate you again and turn around and love you. The kicker is that, regardless of which side she is allowing to surface, she's completely sincere and truthful. Further more, she is completely devoid of ego. Everything she has done and is doing, it's all heart and soul induced.
What was done to Lyndsey is not correct in any shape or form. I hope Stevie comes to her senses and repairs that tear in Fleetwood Mac... before is too late.
The US legal system went strongly with Lindsey, so there is that. If there had been any genuine reason to boot Lindsey from the band other than a certain someone being a diva, it would have come out. Stevie's and Mick's stories have changed and conflict, while Lindsey's version of events has remained consistent. This is now also backed up by both Neil Finn's and Mike Campbell's recent accounts ... Mike claims Stevie lied to him that Lindsey left the band of his own accord - he signed the contract to tour then found out what happened. Neil said Mick Fleetwood told him they'd "got rid of Lindsey". Neil also said Stevie was quite difficult towards Mike because she wanted him to play like Lindsey and he of course plays in his own way.
Conclusion - take anything Mick or Stevie says with a pinch of salt.
If it was a musical decision to kick Lindsey out. Then that was a dumb move. Have you seen this man play. WOW! Just outstanding
They said it had to do with scheduling.
@@rt-lx5lq No, it wasn't. Lindsey and Stevie just cannot get along. She doesn't want to deal with it anymore, and the band had to choose. They chose Stevie.
Graeme Knowles Big mistake. BIG! 😩
He still plays awesome guitar, just not with FM.
I doubt it. I think she wanted Mike Campbell along for a tom petty tribute and she manipulated the whole scenario. A very mean spirited action.
He wouldn't join the band without her...she kicked him out the...the irony.
Saw Fleetwood mac in Chicago and it was his birthday. I thought his guitar was going to burst in flames. He was burning it up. Smoking. Wow.
In staring at the wonder that is Lindsey Buckingam's hair, I'm more and more curious what it looks like from the back.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 I thought I was the only one!
And from the side. Is it like a wave? Dunno but thanks for the laugh 😂
😂😂😂
lmaooo i was thinking about it too
same as the front.
Lindsay was and is a musical genius.... he is as much needed as the rest of them!
But they don’t need new songs
They want to sell tickets for nostalgia for the hits he already made
Given they've bombed everytime he hasn't been part of the band post-Green, they clearly need him more.
I hope, they need him as much as CV. But now with her being dead, it's over.
I think Lindsey will always love Stevie.
Maybe you got that backwards.
I agree. I think they have this unique deep love/hate? relationship. Maybe hate isn't the word. Love and conflict.
@@jamesgray6745 Wrong joe walsh is her love.
@@lot110 So she says. I think she always thought that Lindsey would never get over her, and that he would still be around if she ever wanted to come back. Fast forward 40 years, Stevie is unmarried and has no children and Lindsey has been married for 20 years and has 3 kids. For 2 people that have spent their entire adult lives competing with one another, that's a constant reminder of "what she had, and what she lost."
I think there’s a tremendous amount of love between them and always will be, but Lindsey is the one that seems like he can’t coexist without causing problems. Stevie and Mick remain best friends despite their romantic past, some people just do not have it in them to do that and LB is one of them. He’s an extremely passionate person which is evident from his musicianship.
No Lindsay No Fleewood Mac
@c Dittmer he wrote their best Music!
Magaly Santana learn how to spell and also, you’re missing out on the new lineup! Amazing!
Magaly Santana do you have amnesia? Lindsey is only 33.3333333% of the songwriting in the band..... I guess you forgot that there are two other singers 🙄
@Frank Castle I agree. On my personal list of favorite FM songs there are a many Lindsey songs and several Christine songs - but no Stevie songs.
(That doesn't mean that I don't like any of Stevie's song, though. I really like Gypsy and Sara, and Dreams is also quite good. But I'm just not that interested in her songs and never have been.)
Takes two people to try to replace him
Stevie and Lindsey are 2 of the most talented duo songwriters of all time.
Bring Buckingham back and I swear he's going to write the greatest album the world has ever seen. He's got a lot of hurt in his voice and that man really knows how to make a song out of hurt.
They have a resurgence in popularity already. Imagine how HUGE it would be if they reunited and did another album. Though it won't be the same without Christine so I don't think they should go with a replacement like they tried to do with Lindsey. Stevie damn well knows that was a mistake. In her Masterclass interview, she even talks about how iconic Lindsey is as a guitarist.
A very humble and sincere man
Humble 😂
How can it be Fleetwood Mac without Lindsey? Even more than with other bands, each member of FM is essential to the sound and feel of the music. They could hire 20 guitarists and it wouldn't replace him.
It wouldn't be. He is essential.
this guy is one of the best guitarists i have ever heard and i was a rock&roll tour driver for 25 yrs . trust me this guy can play .
Oh he sure can..no joke smoke.. 😂
The last time I saw them I think it was 2012 but I remember watching him play so much behind the vocals and I thought this guy is really carrying the entire band on an epic level
He's absolutely a master of the guitar. I love his amazing style and I love his voice. He's great in every single song, but his playing in 'Everywhere', along with Christine's voice is magical.
Joe Santarini is the King....
This is one of the biggest tragedies of rock. We will never know the whole story but not being able to put aside differences and come together for just one, just one tribute concert to honor the memory of Christine McVie breaks my heart.
Chill 😂 it’ll be forgotten about eventually like everything.. in a million years who will even care or know about this? The universe is 13 billion years old and look how fast that happened.. folks seem to forget that we’re on a little tiny rock floating through infinite space and life here is very very very short
@@BBPalmer420Weird response. We could say that about anything. Point is - we're here now and what makes us human is empathy and finding interests in things nothing else in the universe is capable of, as far as we know. If we want to talk about this - or any other subject - it's appropriate to.
I'm now 52 and have grown up with Fleetwood Mac! I'm heartbroken over this 💔 I hope the band can make peace and preserve their legacy!
I hope if they do make peace that it is an honest peace. Otherwise the fans will be able to sense the strain between these performers.
@@rt-lx5lq There is no "honest" peace when comes to love gone bad between two people.
Stevie has become an ugly, old and heartless woman. In Stevie's own words from "Gold Dust Woman"....."Heartless challenge. Pick your path and I'll prey."
There legacy is preserved.
Rumors is probably one of the best 10 albums ever, in my opinion at least.
I Will never can break the chain with this man ❤
this man has never been appreciated enough. neither by the band, neither by Stevie. yet he was in my opinion the most responsible for the success and the sound of Fleetwood Mac we know and love today
I agree 100%
Exactly.
No no. He was integral but not one was better than the next. His light came from Stevie and his love.
@@professorbon6265 whatever it is I just wish they still toured together. they're not getting any younger😿
The best performance ever was the live version of Silver Springs in 96 I think. Gave me chills.
Agreed!
It was 97 . It was beautiful
Think it was 1997 and it was on tv. The Dance I think it was called
Just watched it this morning with my wife, both of us with previous marriages-some of those looks and glances are just gut wrenching to watch. Kind of surreal to see that on a stage knowing their past. I’m glad to see we’re not the only ones to pick up on the chilling visuals under that circumstance.
@@rinaticson390 I was close lol. Thx. My fav performance of my fav song!
Fleetwood Mac without Lindsey is like Mike Love’s version of The Beach Boys without the creative genius of Brian Wilson.
I made this same comment above before seeing yours
I hesitate to put them in the same arena talent wise, but it is a similar situation.
Lindsey IS spectacularly talented so that’s not a knock on him, it’s just that Brian is the best so everyone else is technically below him
Very well put
Lindsey seems like he’s at peace. I’m happy for him that he has that. Many don’t.
He sounds logical and wise here. We can all hope that wisdom and compassion will prevail.
Whenever I watch this clip, I just start laughin' from how much I love this guy. Could be because of all of his composure and restraint from the way he dealt with difficult things happening to him around the time of this interview. Great stuff.
LOADED STATEMENT. Nothing short of it. I believe I know EXACTLY where you're coming from with this comment. BEYOND talent. Actually, the whole group is guilty of this. One of the main reasons why I never liked the group in the beginning was due to Stevie. I couldn't stand seeing her. It seemed that the radio only played certain songs from this group till they were overplayed.
The history of this group is interesting as well. This group was not on anyone's radar until Lindsey came on board. What happened there was phenomenal. I believe they recorded this album when they were experiencing quarrels with BOTH of their relationships. In other words, this album is the product of their "venting".
Another thing fascinating to me is that Lindsey doesn't play with a pick. Unbelievable.
He seems like a great guy.
@@billmimms “not on anyone’s radar until Lindsey came aboard”…. You mean he and Stevie? They joined together. All of the band’s talent and dysfunction and intensity snapping together was what made Rumours the masterpiece it is.
They were each great musicians in their own right but nothing they do will ever top that album they all made together. Lindsey and Stevie’s breakup is a big part of that.
Correct. The chemistry that they made as the "new Fleetwood Mac" is obvious, from seeing album sales. I did like the album that had "Hypnotize" on it, but this was before they went huge. Amazing what personnel changes can do. @@isabella-a-a-a
Their last tours should of consisted of Mick, John, Christine , Stevie and Lindsey. The 5 of them together were phenomenal and had a magic noone else could replace. It's a pity they could not have worked through their differences but it was probably too difficult for them all when there was still hostility between Stevie and Lindsey. I'm just sad we'll never get to see them all perform again with Christine 😢 God rest her beautiful soul ➕💜➕
😥
This was entirely about how Stevie felt towards Lindsey, not the other way around. I like Christine but she could and should have stood up for him. Instead, she went along with it. All 4 were complicit.
He is very well spoken and seems genuine.
True soulmate love can be incredibly beautiful and painfully heartbreaking.
My heart absolutely breaks for her!
Mine went on to another soulmate also, and I'm the one left trying to glue my broken heart.
@Catherine-dp4dc This is not about you. And catch up on the story that has been public for nearly 50 years: SHE left him, not the other way around. And she had the nerve to hold a grudge against him because he did not sit around crying over her.
his solo performance of Big Love is my favorite Fleetwood Mac song
He sounds a little bit bitter still as well. Maybe they both are. Which just sounds like there is love deep still there.
Wouldn't you be if you'd given what he did for the band - way more than the others because he also arranged and produced their albums - and then they pulled this? He's been incredibly diplomatic - way more than any of them deserve. I certainly wouldn't have been.
Whatever happened between you and Stevie belongs to both of you you’ll forever be connected either because of your relationship or your professional business relationship you’re like the stars and the moon they both go together best wishes to the both of you
I find it interesting that the band booted Lindsey to assuage Stevie when in fact he is the reason Stevie got in the band in the first place. He was more loyal to her than she to him in the end.
Great interview!!
Fleetwood Mac is NOT the same without Lindsey Buckingham.
Not the same but I saw them in Tampa on 2/17 and it was fantastic. No complaints. And Stevie had become the face of FM, like it or not.
Lindsey Buckingham is one of rock and rolls legendary guitarist
Can’t help wondering if a greedy manager is really behind the breakup? He and other band members would probably lose a lot of money if their tour was held up for a year. I admire Lindsey’s concern for his children and spending time with them. Being a parent and in a traveling band must be very difficult. No amount of money is worth time spent with your children, and they grow up so fast. Love all of their music and wish them all the best, always.
Irving Azoff has had a less than scrupulous reputation in the past. He was sued by Henley I believe. He was the one that informed Felder that he was no longer in the Eagles. Ticketmaster was accused of anti-competitive practices when Azoff was Chairman.

@@daniel213141 I believe that he was behind it as well. I believe that he pressured and influenced Stevie. He also pushed the "Eagles" to get back on the road after Glenn Frey died and after Henley had stated numerous times that it wouldn't be right to continue without Glenn and that the Eagles were effectively over.
daniel213141 Oh wow. Didn’t know that.
Patricia Burke The court documents proved that Stevie and Mick lied when they said that Lindsey was asking for a year's delay. It was only a month.
This is a beautiful conversation, , , , the ups and downs of life can only be experienced by those who stick together.
I love Lindsey, I love Stevie, I love Fleetwood Mac. I hope they work things out, but if they don't I can accept it. No need to take sides - I'm just a fan.
I think if you listen to the music Stevie wrote, she loved him very much at a very young age and never got over it. Now we will never have a farewell concert because we lost our Songbird last year. 🕊️ At least I still have my albums 😂
fleetwood mac was build on heartbreak and conflict. stevie has been through a lot more than feeling a certain way about something that happened half a century ago. she isn’t that petty. lindsay has his own demons he needs to bring up in these interviews instead of playing the victim. there are always three sides to every story
cxrbyn Listen to Stevie's interviews. Everything is always about her. John McVie said so himself in a wonderful British documentary about the band.
@@ogdocvato Boom. Nailed it.
Stevie Nicks "not that petty" yet serves up an ultimatum that either she goes or Lindsey goes. Nice try. 🤣
We all lose something in our looks over the years. I've always been a fan of this version of Fleetwood Mac (with Lindsey) since I first heard them. This includes a half dozen live concerts. Believe me, at concert #1, for me, Stevie was knockout beautiful! Stevie's success doesn't depend at all on her looks though she's always had that. Her professional clout stems from her being a reliable singer-song writer and hit machine. All other things said about her, positive or negative, are incidental. She's an incredible talent.
I find his calm demeanor and frankness about it all inspiring.
This is so sad, one of greatest groups ever. Keep your head up Lindsay. Much love to all the members hopefully they can get past this rough period.
Right. After all these years they fire him? Makes no sense.
@@rebecafrancia8020he tried to strangle his bandmate. I hope all bands would do the same. He’s unhinged.
Bring him back! It’s tragic they got rid of him!
no matter what you guys were magic. or lighting in a bottle my uncle was and still is a huge fan, so my mom became a fan also who more less turned me on to the band and i lost her last year she was only 56 but Im 35 now and some of my favorite memories were riding threw the APP park way as a kid and her playing there type in the car i did not know it then but it was some of the best days of my life im now a singer song Wrighter and I'm using my wife's TH-cam but god bless and KEEP ROCKING MAN YOUR VOICE IS ONE OF A KIND
If it hadn't been for Lindsey, she would never have even been in FM!
Don't forget she supported him for years before that, which is why he insisted she be asked to join the band along with him. She doesn't owe him anything. He owed her. Now they're even.
@@frozenwarning I lost what little respect for her when...well, every time I post the actual article from Rolling Stone (An interview with Don Henley) about "Sara"...it's taken down so anyway and instead of her being the Goat as in Greatest Of All Time (She's not) she SOUNDS more like one! Sorry, I'm just NOT a fan of hers and I never will be. I don't excuse him for any bad behavior either but I'll take his music over hers all day long. We all have our opinions and I respect yours even though we may disagree. I respect you.
@@frozenwarning Typical bs feminist spin. Why did she stay with him? Because she knew how talented he was & supposedly she loved him. LB made her part of the FM deal because he loved her. Period, She on the other hand, kept score of what she did but claimed to really love him. If she truly did, she would not have felt like she did anything more than help them both realize their dreams. They made an album together, he produced & arranged her songs and continued doing that even after they had broken up. She got him fired. You sound as bitter as she does. Oof.
We need Fleetwood Mac back on tour please!! Fans are waiting for another tour!
I could be so far off, but I think Stevie was so heartbroken she couldn’t even look at him much the less work with him.
I think Stevie needed so much more love than he could give her then. Sometimes love is so hard, you have to love yourself, not love through someone else.
And we feel doomed and sabotage ourselves when we feel it’s coming down the pike. Life is too short. I hope that they can patch up their bygones and learn that it is better to have once loved than to never have loved at all.
I love this group, all of them. I would love to see them all back together touring again. There is still more to the story. Keep it alive for the fans, if possible. Godspeed.
Except for the fact she stares at him through every song
She only loves she. Steve is a toxic woman
She is a fake person. You body lenguage talk about she... Is a Fake
YES...EXACTLY!!!😊he is very talented and VERY well spoken BUT has many demons and a lack of self awareness
Think there's some merit to your point. I saw a clip of him singing one of their hit song, think it's just go which was about Stevie and clips of her singing it looked so uncomfortable.
Tremendous talent. The past is gone. He s got a good life now.
So sad they broke bad. What a shame. So much beautiful music
He's portraying himself as a really reasonable guy here, and he says some wise things. But his implication that Stevie Nicks is maybe jealous of his life somehow is kind of an egotistical low-blow more in line of what I've heard about his actual personality.
Nailed It.
Both of can be true.
What about the interview I saw of Stevie Nicks speaking about how she wasted 8 solid years on drugs & regrets it, speaking word for word about how she could have made more FM albums or solo albums or had a child.
She also said (like all old ladies) that a good man is impossible to find in older age lol
Maybe he is reasonable & maybe he has picked up on the truth, she just might be bitter about his life choices vs her's (?)
Eyota Crowfeather, I guess she forgot about that time that she could’ve had a child, but aborted it. 🤷🏼♀️
@doso don But Lindsey never stated he knew for sure that this was the reason for stevies behavior, he even admitted that he was just speculating on this and does not really know. It is very natural for someone to speculate on all kinds of personal issues when someone who is supposedly a friend fires you from the band. I do not know why stevie did this but I am trying to listen to all sides. Maybe a low blow, or maybe he was just honestly speculating on stevies behavior. After all, he was being questioned about it, repeatedly.
Thanks for all the great music, irrespective of your personal issues which are yours alone, you still are one of the best bands of all time.
Amen!
This all seems to be second hand news to me.
Lol
Lindsey's current tour and feedback for his recent album is very good, I love the new material too, as a fan. Wounds always seem to come to the surface, when he is playing with FM (On both sides). I hope he carries on with being a solo artist, for his health's sake.
Lindsey will always have a special spot in his heart for Stevie. That's what makes it sad.
His comment about him finding love later in life and Stevie essentially resenting him for it was uncalled for
Incredibly tacky.
May be true tho
The funny thing is he's divorced now. What an unnecessary thing to say. Both Stevie and Christine never had children and no all the women need to be mother's in order to feel complete.
It felt kinda like a low blow. If your gonna act civil and hold your head up high, then you don't need that negative dig.
@@giuliana1644 Lindsey and his wife called off their divorce. Said they’re trying to work it out. As for Stevie, I personally think she’s toxic. She’s narcissistic and has treated Lindsey terribly. He deserves better ~
I'm a big fan of Lindsey's but I wish he didn't sound so winy. If he really wants a chance of a reunion he would have been better off not mentioning Stevies failure to start a family. That was a mistake and just plain stupid. I want the passion of the band back together.
I think to Lindsey it is some kind of failure, but to Stevie, Fleetwood Mac is her baby, her life. Stevie also had an abortion with Don Henley's baby. She named her song Sara after it. So, she had her chance and they didn't want it. Stevie was also married briefly to her deceased friends husband. They made their choices. One thing I didn't hear was Lindsey saying he was happy in his role as husband and father.
@@rt-lx5lq old man are always happy with young women Stilling youth is what old man do.
@@rt-lx5lq he said he found his soul mate that pretty much sums it up
Joe Cool not happy in his role as a father? Huh? He actually did a foreward to a book about parenting that my wife bought a few years back. I think he is very happy and Stevie Nicks is miserable. That has a lot to do with what happened here.
@@rt-lx5lq He IS happy. He says in the interview that he has found his soulmate, and he talks about his three beautiful children. He has also written a song for his wife, "I Was You". Let me quote from the lyrics:
"Every day now I am finally home
Because I waited for a woman who
Was true
I waited for a woman it was you'
He still loves her and always will.
Five words: Daisy Jones and The Six.
I'm still bitter about how dirty they did him but I also believe there's a lot going on between them after all. I just love Fleetwood Mac and their story
Passion isn't always a good thing
At the end of the day, if they didn't break up, we'd probably wouldn't have these great songs.
Fleetwood Mac is just not the same anymore
Fleetwood Mac has had so many different lineups, guitarists singer / songwriters over the years. Please don't forget the Peter Green, Danny Kirwan and Jeremy Spencer years and their blues period. Then there was Bob Welch. This group was established and playing great music before Stevie and Lindsey showed up. They may be part of their best lineup but that is a matter of taste as much as anything.
Even Mike Campbell played with FM.
There’s two sides to the story but that was really unnecessary to pretty much say that she’s mad that you found your soulmate and she didn’t.
And that he is living his personal life and she's living a professional one.. wow low blow
Yeah that was cruel
@@darkness_of_the_night When I listen to Lindsey I hear a spoiled rock star who never moved on and is bitter. He sounded like a child in this interview. His "soulmate" got pregnant but yet he didn't marry her until after their second child was born. The entire band had enough.
90% scorned women
Very unnecessary
Lindsey Buckingham is the ONLY remaining Fleetwood Mac Member, that can still sing at a pretty decent level... Not saying the rest are bad, it's just that their voices haven't aged as well as Lindsey's...
Lindsey not in Fleetwood, stings as bad as Steve Perry not being in Journey...
Excellent comparison!!
How cool could it be to see Don Felder and Lindsey Buckingham do a y
Tour together. They were both done the same way by their respective bands and are both legends!
I would love to see that! They are both tremendous guitarists and song writers.
Admire your honesty x
Dam I love Lindsey... Such an amazing talent..
fm isn't the same without lindsey buckingham. takes 2 guitarists to replace him. in a podcast with conan o'brien lindsey says that he took command of the band during their FIRST practice since none of the original fm members wouldn't.
I think the older Stevie gets the more she becomes the diva she never used to be. She is the voice of the band so she rules. Starting to lose respect.
myndchanger fumblesmcstupid I agree with you 100%. I used to love her. Now I see her an an example of how not to grow old.
Thats too bad...
He is legendary 🙌 👏 ❤
He’s so cool
He's a Legend and Nothing can change that.
Fleet wood mac is not without you
Lindsey was a huge part of Fleetwood...miss his presence
Lindsey is the star 🤗
So sad that Stevie couldn't sit down with Lindsey and communicate and put everything out on the table. They don't sound the same without Lindsey. That band was created by both Lindsey and Stevie. After all these years they couldn't work it out.....what a shame.
We will never know what really went on with Stevie & Lindsey through all these years. They can't and won't tell us everything. Stevie has said that she won't write her own biography until everyone is so old that they won't care anymore. She has said that a lot of people would be very hurt if she did it sooner.
Laura Calderon She is too unkind a person to ever do that sort of thing.
@@julieanneshephard8378 I think that plenty of people, namely the rest of the band, have already been scarred permanently by her past behavior.
The woman is toxic (and full of herself.)
"I met my soulmate late in life"...he knows that stings.
If people think she doesn't have a jealous bone in her body then they must think she's not a human. I feel sorry for her. I know she doesn't need pity but I'm sure she would take back some things if she could.
Legend.
Clearly you could “feel” it in their music... and that’s what makes Fleetwood Mac so special
No Fleetwood mac without Lindsey period. He is just as important as stevie. And she wouldn't be in the band if not for him.
From what I understand Lindsay is a perfectionist, always wanted to get things perfect. Nothing wrong with that, its what made Fleetwood Mac soar, but that is hard personally to deal with but not unusual. Even Tom Petty another genius, said about himself that he was no summer breeze.
Yet Tom Petty was respectful of other people/talent and was humble. Lindsey was really none of those things. It is now obvious why he never worked with other musicians. Was Lindsey a perfectionist or did he just want things his way? It is a fine line and they all reached their breaking point.
Landslide duet with Lindsey and Stevie is the BEST Landslide.
I won’t see Fleetwood without Lindsey. Sorry.
Stupid move on their part. They are NEVER as good without Lindsey. And pretty disrespectful of Stevie to make that kind of an ultimatum. Lost a LOT of respect for her.
Terry Mingle Perfectly stated.
@James Tudor - No, I don't agree. I think that Tom Petty's death made her a little crazy. And the only way she could stay "close" to him was to be near Mike Campbell. But I find it to be extremely disrespectful of the band to do that to Lindsey. Without him, they would not have had NEARLY the amount of success that they did. And for the record, prior to this, I was a DIE-HARD Stevie fan. I am really disgusted with her now.
Regardless of the circumstances that led to his departure from the band, many of us hoped there could be still a chance of seeing them all reunited at least one more time, but now with the recent death of Christine McVie unfortunately we will never get to see Fleetwood Mac´s best line-up ever together again. At least their recordings will survive through time to keep enjoying them, because after all their musical legacy is invaluable.
He seems to be hurt and very thoughtful. It's a shame how the behavior from FM und Stevie was!
What a lovely man ❤
Buckingham is a brilliant musician.
Just hope they get back together before it's too late
I can't believe this has happened. Insane 😮
Sometimes things are better left alone
I’m not so sure reminding her that he has a spouse and kids, and she doesn’t, is going to get them any closer to reconciliation.
Especially since his wife filed for divorce in 2021. He knows exactly what he's saying. The dig about kids was unnecessary
Well Stevie aborted her babies so she could have had children
She is a lost soul...struggling all through the years. Very sad for her
I think the key to this interview is, when Lindsey cut to the chase and said, "soulmate" sums it up. Stevie's out Period! But I just want get along says, Sir Buckingham .
Soulmate filed for divorce. Mic drop.
@@aliciacarrillo6246 divorce was called off. Pick mic back up ~
At the 2:00 mark LB hits the nail on the head as to why SN is jealous of him. Over the last decade I have heard several interviews by her where she blames FM, the music industry, Jimmy Iovine, drugs and anything & everyone else for why she does not have a husband or kids. She made those choices and cannot blame or resent anyone else for them. She needs to grow up or maybe take a cue from Debbie Harry who embraced Chris Stein's wife and family with happiness and grace. And let's not forget LB is the reason SN was even in FM because Mick only wanted LB but he would not join without SN.
It's HIS and Stevie Nicks'. Do you have an intern running your TH-cam channel?
I always felt Stevie was Jealous of Lindsey getting married and have children
More like Lindsey using his wife and kids as a weapon.
@@cosmicocean9302 Could be but it was Mick Fleetwood who wanted Lindsey and Lindsey is the one that bought her in the group in the first place. They didn't even want stevie but Lindsey change their minds.
@@cosmicocean9302 LOL living his life is a weapon? How f'd up are you? You sound as much like a woman scorned as SN does. And making this about you shows how triggered you are.
So many people backing up stevie and I understand she's a huge part of the band but let's not forget how she got where she is in the first place. Without Lindsey having a say in stevie's inclusion who knows what shed be up to.
I have a feeling she would be a successful solo artist . She never needed Lindsey. Some vocalists just have that presence on stage that fans connect to. Stevie always had that quality.
@sun 123
Simply think she would have succeeded regardless.
@maria Fernanda Same can be said for Stevie working to support them both. Without her working to pay the bills who knows what Lindsey would be up to.
@sun 123 Where would Lindsey be if Stevie wasn't working to support them both and pay their bills? There is no argument to win here.
she doesnt owe him anything
