If you feel a connection to the girl in the middle, that’s the one-and-only Stevie Nicks. She’s the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice: once for being a member of Fleetwood Mac and then for her solo career. Look her up. You won’t be disappointed.
RIP Christy McVie. She leads as the singer for this song (splits between her and Stevie Nicks). She played so many roles: co-lead singer, song writer, keyboardist and even peace maker. Such a great talent and soul.
Still holds up to this day. There are no bands to this day that even comes close to fleetwood Mac. I do wish our host would have Stevie nicks as her first reaction because even though it's a great song and the late Christine had a very nice voice. We all can agree it's not as haunting as Stevie nicks.
Fleetwood Mac had several lineups over the years, starting in the 60s. This lineup was their most successful, which started in 1975. Mick Fleetwood(drums), John McVie(Bass), Stevie Nicks(vocals), Christine McVie(keyboards & vocals), and Lindsey Buckingham(guitar & vocals). So yes, they had three lead vocalists and they all harmonized perfectly! They all wrote great songs for the band. Christine McVie was married to John McVie for a few years, but divorced and still remained bandmates! Buckingham and Nicks were also a couple when they joined the band in 1975. Both couples broke up around the time they were recording the Rumours album, which was one of the top albums of the 1970s!
🔥🔥Stevie Nicks, with the tambourine is also amazing and the lead vocalist to the band FLEETWOOD MAC,the band came out in 1967 and Christine Mckvie with the maracas just recently past November 30,2022
There is SO much I could say about Fleetwood Mac, but there's not time. I will say (contrary to popular belief) that I always liked the sound of Christine McVie's voice over "The Diva" Stevie Nicks" voice. They were very influential and they ruled the airwaves in their day!
I couldn't agree more in fact without Christine I think Fleetwood Mac wouldn't have been this good! You make loving fun is another great song sung by Christine!!
5 band members! One of the most durable bands ever who continued on together(most of the time) despite heartache, drug use by some and affairs within the band. They stood the test of time!
They are indeed phenomenal - Sadly we lost Christine recently (the lead singer here). There are 5 members here, with 3 lead singers each in their own right. Here is a deeper dive into Fleetwood Mac showing the other supreme talents: th-cam.com/video/W6G5e65YdwA/w-d-xo.html (Fleetwood Mac - The Dance - 1997 - Go Your Own Way) Lindsey is the singer/guitar player here, and this and many of their songs are about break ups between them. Lindsey and Stevie (the short blonde with the tamborine) were together and she cheated on him, and this song is about that. But Stevie responded with this one back atcha: th-cam.com/video/eDwi-8n054s/w-d-xo.html (Fleetwood Mac - Silver Springs (Official Live Video) [HD]) The band and each of the main singers have many hits and the band has many different sounds as a result. But while Stevie was the prima donna, it was Christine who wrote and sang more hits than the others - her untimely passing is saddening: th-cam.com/video/npnGTnupBX0/w-d-xo.html (Fleetwood Mac- Over My Head (The Dance)) th-cam.com/video/ROGEHq1WZqU/w-d-xo.html (Fleetwood Mac - As Long As You Follow (Official Music Video))
This was about two decades after their heyday. But literally you could grab any song off of their 1975 Rumors album, which is considered to be one of the greatest complete albums in rock history. Everything on it is just stunningly good.
Take a look at “Tusk” by Fleetwood Mac feat the USC marching band! You will experience music on a whole other level with this one🙌🏼 and I love that you said the FABULOUS one and only Stevie Nicks reminded you of hocus pocus because that is totally her image! She’s the epitome of a dark glam rock and roll diva! My mom and I LIVE for Stevie♥️🙏🏼
Fleetwood Mac was originated in 1967 by drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. In 1970, keyboardist and lead singer Christine Perfect joined the band and married John McVie soon after. Lead vocalist and lead guitarist Lindsey Buckingham was asked to join FM in 1974. He agreed on December 31, 1974 as long as they included his girlfriend, Stevie Nicks, a singer/songwriter. Despite not being able to read music, instead playing guitar and piano by ear, Stevie Nicks became the breakout star of the band with her youthful looks and witchy stage persona. She became the first female in history to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice (in 1998 as a member of FM and in 2019 as a solo artist). Sadly, Christine McVie passed away November 30, 2022 at the age of 79 after a brief illness. Her ex-husband John is 77. Mick Fleetwood is 75. Stevie is 74 and her ex Lindsey is 73.
React to "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac. It's their biggest hit from the "Rumours" album one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Over 40 million copies.
I've loved them all my life, it's really cool to see people learn about them for the first time. If you dig into them more, I think you will start to see how much their sound changed everything that came after it. Rumours is probably an all time top 5 album, across genres.
Hard to imagine experiencing the Mac now for the first time, you will love them. Strange how the first hit I heard from them was "Over My Head" 1975 by Christine and now you are hearing one of their last hits by Christine. So sad we lost Christine this year.
💙💙💙🎼💙💙💙 .. you are right Britt .. "good for the soul" , in every way. This is one of the best bands of all time. Super musicians - super singers ... Christine McVee - Stevie Nick's- Lindsay Buckingham .. you have many more songs to listen to - "Tusk" - "Little Lies" - "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" - "Songbird" - "Chains" - "Big Love" .. 😬 enjoy
Fleetwood Mac is/was one of the bands that made music complex enough to need additional musicians to play live, and went to the lengths to do that instead of simplifying the music or using recorded backing tracks. The band itself was a 5-piece (at least at this point, and for most of their history); Mick Fleetwood on drums, John McVie on bass (thus the name of the group, by the way), Christine McVie is the blond first singer - also keyboardist usually, Lindsey Buckingham on guitar and vocals, and the incomparable Stevie Nicks as lead vocals most of the time. Everybody else would be touring musicians added just to produce the sound close to the way it was recorded, but not actual band members. And yes, the core band had been together since the early 70's by that point ('73 I think, but I'd have to look it up to be sure).
Mick Fleetwood, the drummer, sometimes plays with an excellent 90s band, The Corrs, who are four siblings, three ladies and a guy. They write their own wonderful easy listening music like Fleetwood Mac does, but with a different sound(and a few Fleetwood Mac covers). The Corrs have beautiful melodic voices, and each plays an instrument or four.
Fleetwood Mac’s “Everywhere” was used recently in a Chevrolet television commercial. Also, the official music video of this song (not the live version) shows the story from the famous poem “The Highwayman” by Alfred Noyes. Another singer, Loreena McKennitt, put the poem to music in a song of the same name that is very beautiful.
Yes, they have (had) 3 lead vocalists all 3 of them quite good. Gives them a range of music I think few other bands can match. They put out so many hit songs. Great band.
You have just become aware of Fleetwood Mac wow where you been iv been a fan for forty years, Everyone loves Stevie Christine does it for me, You have a lovely voice
Great reaction to a great band. Wow feel your energy in this one. Sadly the lead singer in this song passed away unexpectedly last month. The group was drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, keyboards and vocals Christine McVie, lead singer Stevie Nicks, and guitarist and vocals Lindsay Buckingham. Together they had a lot of great songs worth checking out. You may want to snag some headphones because you will enhance your experience greatly. Look forward to next time.
Mick Fleetwood is the drummer. John McVie and Christine Mcvie, she is the lead singer in this video. So it's Fleetwood Mac for McVie. Other female singer is Stevie Nicks lead guitarist is the amazing Lindsay Buckingham. John McVie is the bass guitarist. Then have been together since the mid 1970's. Christine Mcvie passed away less than 2 months ago
Just let know you know, of early FleetwoodMac was not this version of band, in early days of 1967 with Peter Green was founder of the band, it was all male band and British All Blues Band, this is a later version that when rock & roll with a touch blues and two ladies came in later and Peter founding member left the band to find himself & more. Great story behind this band life. Thanks Girl, as always for sounds that rock & sometimes can make you think. Words from old rocker me. Rock On ... KIDO.
Fleetwood Mac named for Mick Fleetwood (drum) John McVie (Bass)has been around since 1968ish. Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined around 1975. Christine McVie who sings this song died last month.
Please react to "Alone" by HEART. th-cam.com/video/1Cw1ng75KP0/w-d-xo.html. The Wilson sisters were one of the first females to front/create a rock band. They started out in the 60's? and have been rocking and touring up until a few years ago, I don't know if they have retired or just taking a break.
Britt, if you like spilled tea and stories of betrayal and scorned lovers, Fleetwood Mac has a dirty laundry list of music that is jam packed with internal conflict and the whole band is so intertwined that some members are singing songs that the other member(s) wrote about them or directed at them. It’s a wasteland of spilled tea and gossip drama. “Silver Springs”, “The Chain” and “Go Your Own Way” are just some starting points. You’re welcome!
If anyone knows Married With Children, the Fleetwood Mac song 'Rheanan' was like that song Al Bundy couldn't find the name of. I heard snipits of Rheanan for years here and there and love it but never knew who did it or the name of it. Well one day I was in a coffee shop and a couple were arguing. The woman was saying the music industry was sexist and wouldn't let women succeed. The man was arguing and she finally said, 'if it isn't sexist than why isn't there any female rock legends?' The man was stunned to silence and the woman folded her arms and leaned back thinking she'd won. The man raise his fingers and started ticking off names and, I knew there were some but I had no idea there were so many. I'm bad at remembering names but I looked up a few that I remembered and that was how I found Fleetwood mac and the name of that amazing song. Thanks publicly arguing couple!!
The band has a history going way back before this. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie are the original roots of the band. They've been a successful band no matter who had joined them. Five in the band. Drummer, bass player, guitar player, keyboard/singer, Christie and singer Stevie Nicks. The others are hired.
You really need to react to Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac. It's incredible. The woman in the middle that you liked is Stevie Nick's and she sings lead on that song. She and the guitar player, Lindsay Buckingham, had been in a relationship but broke up. This is a breakup song that she sings to him on stage at the 1997 reunion tour. You have to do the live version.
The lead vocalist on this song is Christine Mc. Vie. I say on this song because they had a sort of unwritten rule, whereby, whoever wrote the song, sung the song. Oh, by the way there were 5 members in the band. Mick Fleetwood, John Mc. Vie, there you have the name of the band, John's wife, Christine, Lindsay Buckingham and the other woman Stevie Nicks.
I have been a fan of Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac for over 35 years. The best way to explain it is IT'S A LONG STORY! Seriously though you would have to watch one of their documentaries to even begin to understand!
Mick Fleetwood and John Mc Vie started the band with another guy in the late 1960s. Hence the band name "Fleetwood Mac."(the other guy was Peter Green)
Its funny that your wearing an LA Dodgers baseball cap, the lead female singer ; Stevie Nicks has a famous photo of her early performance wearing an LA Dodgers cap. The singer you are enjoying sadly just recently passed away. They were a wonderful band with many big songs that were very popular. I believe they have one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Rumors
The woman singing is Christine McVie, who wrote and sang many of their hits, and also played piano and keyboards. She was one of the most underrated female singers in Rock Music, and as a female singer, her voice trailed only Karen Carpenter, in my honest opinion.
Founding members, Mic Fleetwood (Drummer and band leader) and John McVie (Bass) were the core members through all the generational changes this band endured , the name Fleetwood Mac ensued. The band is an enigma, their success can hardly be charted, and their sound,,,,,,,,,,,, well, the sound just sends you to la, la land! No band has a right to be this talented. Fantastic reaction, TY. Read "Fleetwood Mac, The Complete Illustrated History by Richie Unterberger c 2016 for an insight into this wild ride.
Great song great reaction. This song is in a car commercial now lol. Fleetwood Mac= Mick Fleetwood the drummer and John McVie the bass guitarist in the back. They started this band. The lead singer here is Christine McVie, keyboardist and John's wife for many years ( they got divorced but stayed good friends) the girl in the middle is Stevie (Stephanie) Knicks and the lead guitarist is Lindsey Buckingham. Buckingham and Knicks were highschool sweethearts and lived together before many years but broke up. It was not as amicable as the McVies break up but they both still wanted the band to stay together. Tough situation. Buckingham, Knicks, and McVie all sang. McVie in my opinion was the most talented songwriter followed by Knicks and Buckingham. On the groups top 16 songs, Christine wrote 8, Stevie 5, Buckingham 3. Christine passed away on November 30. Try her other hits Songbird , over my head, you make living fun. Do the live versions from this same concert. and her big solo hit you've got a hold on me. Take care
LOL.. I love you with the comment " She's Me-We", You have a new subscriber on me girl. Keep up the great reactions coming, you got an audience waiting!!
Fleetwood Mac Mick Fleetwood - Drums, percussion, Co-Founder John McVie - Bass Guitar, Co-Founder, Married to and later divorced from: Christine McVie - Lead Singer/Songwriter, Keyboards (Recently passed) Lindsey Buckingham - Lead Singer/Songwriter, Lead Guitar, Joined in 1975 on the condition that his then girlfriend Stevie could join the band. Stevie Nicks - Lead Singer/Songwriter (Solo Artist) Prolific songwriter and 1st women ever inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame with Fleetwood Mac and as a solo Artist. Lindsey and Stevie helped bring Fleetwood Mac to the stratosphere in the mid 70's into the 90's. Anything from the *Rumors album is a great place to start.* Personally I would start with "Dreams" th-cam.com/video/O5ugW4-BstE/w-d-xo.html and then "Silver Springs" Live th-cam.com/video/eDwi-8n054s/w-d-xo.html
Fleetwood Mac had five members, who another commenter already listed below. The other people on stage were auxiliary singers and such. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie (hence the name Fleetwood Mac) are the two OG members and others joined in later at various times. Another band member, Peter Green, suggested that name. You should go back and listen to music from the Peter Green era of the band. It was much more bluesy. The original version of Black Magic Woman came out of this era. Santana's version is a cover.
I love the four obscure songs from that boxed set!! And the lyrics to "Paper Doll" are hilariously Stevie!! "She refused to wear her coat!" lol. But, somehow, it works!
They have been together since the 70s, I heard them all the time everywhere when I was kid. If you see the Don't Look Back video, that actually used a lot of USC's marching band (horn section, mainly). They always owned the Billboard charts; they were not a band they were The Super Band. If musical acts of the 70s and 80s were Superheroes, then this band was Superman. Girl in the middle is the very famous Stevie Knicks.
I'm going to suggest something off beat, that woman you say is you (Stevie Nicks, by the way) worked with The Foo Fighters on the soundtrack of a documentary called “Sound city” The “Sound city players” as the collective called itself, did a few shows where Stevie sang the song she recorded with them. BUT, and this is my suggestion here, they also did an absolutely devastating version of the Fleetwood Mac classic “Gold dust woman.” And that's the version of that song you should react to. “Gold dust woman” is a song about heroin addiction, something Stevie Nicks was very familiar with and in that Sound city version, the Foo Fighters build up this song to increasingly eerie levels until they unleash the full fury during the final chorus. By far the best version of that song and the most epic performance by Stevie Nicks.
Most people who listen to this band nowadays think that Stevie Nicks is the only singer, but Christine McVie ... the one doing leads here actually wrote and sang more hit songs than Stevie, and that doesn't even touch Lindsey Buckingham, who did a LOT of the writing, directing, arranging and lead guitar playing, as well as lead and background vocals. The band has gone through many lineups, but this, by far, has been the most successful. Going back to the female lead vocalists, Stevie definitely was a great singer for them, but only because, while in the group, Lindsey directed and sculpted her vocals. That really only lasted as long as their relationship, and then, she started getting a big head ... and changing the way she sang. Her songs were more "needy and complain-y", but Christine's (my love) were almost always warm and sweet, or strong and uplifting ... just the way I want a woman to be.
5 members-Mick Fleetwood(drums), Stevie Nicks(lead singer), Lindsey Buckingham(lead guitar), John McVie(bass), Christine McVie(lead singer on this song) …name from Mick’s last name and Mac from John and Christine McVie who were married at one time. Buckingham, Christine McVie, and Nicks have all sang lead on songs.
I just wish you would start watching the music videos first. They are so good and the sound is so much better. You can always build off them and watch the live ones later.
I love Christine McVies voice and songwriting.
John McVie (Bass), Christine McVie (vocal, Keyboards, Tambourine), Stevie Nicks (vocal), Lindsay Buckingham (guitar, vocal), Mick Fleetwood (drums)
If you feel a connection to the girl in the middle, that’s the one-and-only Stevie Nicks. She’s the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice: once for being a member of Fleetwood Mac and then for her solo career. Look her up. You won’t be disappointed.
RIP Christy McVie. She leads as the singer for this song (splits between her and Stevie Nicks). She played so many roles: co-lead singer, song writer, keyboardist and even peace maker. Such a great talent and soul.
Christine McVie also wrote many of their best songs.
The singer of this song died last November. Love her… our songbird!
They were huge in the 70’s and 80’s. You couldn’t spin through a radio dial in America without hearing one of their songs.
Yep! One of my favorite groups. "Dreams" and "Gypsy", a couple of all time favorites.
Still holds up to this day. There are no bands to this day that even comes close to fleetwood Mac. I do wish our host would have Stevie nicks as her first reaction because even though it's a great song and the late Christine had a very nice voice. We all can agree it's not as haunting as Stevie nicks.
@@SIR-DanielHunter Stervie Who? RIP Christine.

The old fleetwood mac outsold the beatles a couple years in the late sixties. Not quite as successful as this current lineup but very successful.
🔥🔥Stevie Nicks, with the tambourine is also amazing and the lead vocalist to the band FLEETWOOD MAC,the band came out in 1967 and Christine Mckvie with the maracas just recently past November 30,2022
There is SO much I could say about Fleetwood Mac, but there's not time. I will say (contrary to popular belief) that I always liked the sound of Christine McVie's voice over "The Diva" Stevie Nicks" voice. They were very influential and they ruled the airwaves in their day!

"the girl in the middle is getting Hocus pocus". My goodness, how could she be so spot on just a minute in?
Exactly 😊
5 band members! One of the most durable bands ever who continued on together(most of the time) despite heartache, drug use by some and affairs within the band. They stood the test of time!
They are indeed phenomenal - Sadly we lost Christine recently (the lead singer here). There are 5 members here, with 3 lead singers each in their own right. Here is a deeper dive into Fleetwood Mac showing the other supreme talents:

This was about two decades after their heyday. But literally you could grab any song off of their 1975 Rumors album, which is considered to be one of the greatest complete albums in rock history. Everything on it is just stunningly good.
Rumors came out in 1977.
RIP Christine McVie - lead vocals for this song. Would love to have do more Fleetwood Mac.
Take a look at “Tusk” by Fleetwood Mac feat the USC marching band! You will experience music on a whole other level with this one🙌🏼 and I love that you said the FABULOUS one and only Stevie Nicks reminded you of hocus pocus because that is totally her image! She’s the epitome of a dark glam rock and roll diva! My mom and I LIVE for Stevie♥️🙏🏼

Fleetwood Mac was originated in 1967 by drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. In 1970, keyboardist and lead singer Christine Perfect joined the band and married John McVie soon after. Lead vocalist and lead guitarist Lindsey Buckingham was asked to join FM in 1974. He agreed on December 31, 1974 as long as they included his girlfriend, Stevie Nicks, a singer/songwriter. Despite not being able to read music, instead playing guitar and piano by ear, Stevie Nicks became the breakout star of the band with her youthful looks and witchy stage persona. She became the first female in history to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice (in 1998 as a member of FM and in 2019 as a solo artist). Sadly, Christine McVie passed away November 30, 2022 at the age of 79 after a brief illness. Her ex-husband John is 77. Mick Fleetwood is 75. Stevie is 74 and her ex Lindsey is 73.
React to "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac. It's their biggest hit from the "Rumours" album one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Over 40 million copies.
I love Fleetwood Mac's track Landslide, you should check it out!
Subbed for the Fleetwood Mac rabbit hole!
I've loved them all my life, it's really cool to see people learn about them for the first time.
If you dig into them more, I think you will start to see how much their sound changed everything that came after it. Rumours is probably an all time top 5 album, across genres.
Lead singer in this one Christine McVie RIP (dubbed the Songbird)
Hard to imagine experiencing the Mac now for the first time, you will love them. Strange how the first hit I heard from them was "Over My Head" 1975 by Christine and now you are hearing one of their last hits by Christine. So sad we lost Christine this year.
💙💙💙🎼💙💙💙 .. you are right Britt .. "good for the soul" , in every way. This is one of the best bands of all time. Super musicians - super singers ... Christine McVee - Stevie Nick's- Lindsay Buckingham .. you have many more songs to listen to - "Tusk" - "Little Lies" - "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" - "Songbird" - "Chains" - "Big Love" .. 😬 enjoy

Mick Fleetwood, the drummer, sometimes plays with an excellent 90s band, The Corrs, who are four siblings, three ladies and a guy.

You have just become aware of Fleetwood Mac wow where you been iv been a fan for forty years, Everyone loves Stevie Christine does it for me, You have a lovely voice
Great reaction to a great band. Wow feel your energy in this one. Sadly the lead singer in this song passed away unexpectedly last month. The group was drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, keyboards and vocals Christine McVie, lead singer Stevie Nicks, and guitarist and vocals Lindsay Buckingham. Together they had a lot of great songs worth checking out. You may want to snag some headphones because you will enhance your experience greatly. Look forward to next time.
New subscriber…. Here for it all but now Eager for you’re dive into this band and the amazing Stevie Nicks. Thanks for the entertainment and time.
Thanks for the sub! More to come!!!!
Mick Fleetwood is the drummer. John McVie and Christine Mcvie, she is the lead singer in this video. So it's Fleetwood Mac for McVie. Other female singer is Stevie Nicks lead guitarist is the amazing Lindsay Buckingham. John McVie is the bass guitarist. Then have been together since the mid 1970's. Christine Mcvie passed away less than 2 months ago
Just let know you know, of early FleetwoodMac was not this version of band, in early days of 1967 with Peter Green was founder of the band, it was all male band and British All Blues Band, this is a later version that when rock & roll with a touch blues and two ladies came in later and Peter founding member left the band to find himself & more.

RIP Christie
R.I.P. Christine McVie
That whole concert was 🔥
They began in the
70’s❤
Check out: The chain, dreamin, etc
Fleetwood Mac was formed in 1967
Fleetwood Mac named for Mick Fleetwood (drum) John McVie (Bass)has been around since 1968ish. Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined around 1975. Christine McVie who sings this song died last month.
Thank you for this info. May she rest in peace, I loved watching this performance so much because of her!
Fleetwood Mac is a very old band which has went through very many changes throughout the years including change ups in members.
One of my favorite bands. They created so much wonderful music.
In the middle...the one-and-only Stevie Nicks, you must check her out.
Another group I think you would vibe on is Heart.
-Alone
-These dreams
Are a couple great ones.
Please react to "Alone" by HEART. th-cam.com/video/1Cw1ng75KP0/w-d-xo.html. The Wilson sisters were one of the first females to front/create a rock band. They started out in the 60's? and have been rocking and touring up until a few years ago, I don't know if they have retired or just taking a break.
The girl in the middle is a lot of the fan's favorite. She's pretty famous.
They were at their best in the late 90s same with the Eagles and the BeeGees Christie just passed before Christmas
Britt, if you like spilled tea and stories of betrayal and scorned lovers, Fleetwood Mac has a dirty laundry list of music that is jam packed with internal conflict and the whole band is so intertwined that some members are singing songs that the other member(s) wrote about them or directed at them. It’s a wasteland of spilled tea and gossip drama. “Silver Springs”, “The Chain” and “Go Your Own Way” are just some starting points. You’re welcome!

The band has a history going way back before this. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie are the original roots of the band. They've been a successful band no matter who had joined them. Five in the band. Drummer, bass player, guitar player, keyboard/singer, Christie and singer Stevie Nicks. The others are hired.
5 members. But background singers who are not the main band. And the lead singer in this song, Christy McVie just died recently
You really need to react to Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac. It's incredible. The woman in the middle that you liked is Stevie Nick's and she sings lead on that song. She and the guitar player, Lindsay Buckingham, had been in a relationship but broke up. This is a breakup song that she sings to him on stage at the 1997 reunion tour. You have to do the live version.
The lead vocalist on this song is Christine Mc. Vie. I say on this song because they had a sort of unwritten rule, whereby, whoever wrote the song, sung the song. Oh, by the way there were 5 members in the band. Mick Fleetwood, John Mc. Vie, there you have the name of the band, John's wife, Christine, Lindsay Buckingham and the other woman Stevie Nicks.
The origin of the name is simple. Two founding members Mick Fleetwood, and John McVie. ♥️✌🏼😎
I know this reaction was a year ago but I’m just finding your channel. I love your reaction to my all-time favorite band.
Grew up listening to Fleetwood Mac they are AMAZING
Love this song, I remember this coming out in the charts I was 13. And Britt you're stunning!
Girl, I'm loving all of your reactions but we got to hear you sing.
Thank you!! Lol I’m just hear to react… I don’t want my singing in trial 😂😂
You're always such a giggle, Britt. 😂❤
I have been a fan of Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac for over 35 years. The best way to explain it is IT'S A LONG STORY! Seriously though you would have to watch one of their documentaries to even begin to understand!
Mick Fleetwood and John Mc Vie started the band with another guy in the late 1960s. Hence the band name "Fleetwood Mac."(the other guy was Peter Green)
Fleetwood comes from Mick Fleetwood, the drummer. Mac comes from John McVie and Christine McVie bass player and pianoist and singer.
Its funny that your wearing an LA Dodgers baseball cap, the lead female singer ; Stevie Nicks has a famous photo of her early performance wearing an LA Dodgers cap. The singer you are enjoying sadly just recently passed away. They were a wonderful band with many big songs that were very popular. I believe they have one of the biggest selling albums of all time. Rumors
The woman singing is Christine McVie, who wrote and sang many of their hits, and also played piano and keyboards. She was one of the most underrated female singers in Rock Music, and as a female singer, her voice trailed only Karen Carpenter, in my honest opinion.
Don't know why this just showed up on my feed after a year. Great song. R.I.P. Christine Mcvie.
Founding members, Mic Fleetwood (Drummer and band leader) and John McVie (Bass) were the core members through all the generational changes this band endured , the name Fleetwood Mac ensued. The band is an enigma, their success can hardly be charted, and their sound,,,,,,,,,,,, well, the sound just sends you to la, la land! No band has a right to be this talented. Fantastic reaction, TY. Read "Fleetwood Mac, The Complete Illustrated History by Richie Unterberger c 2016 for an insight into this wild ride.
"The one in the middle giving hocus pocus." 🤣 She was on american horror story as a witch. Shes an actual witch apparently.
Great song great reaction. This song is in a car commercial now lol. Fleetwood Mac= Mick Fleetwood the drummer and John McVie the bass guitarist in the back. They started this band. The lead singer here is Christine McVie, keyboardist and John's wife for many years ( they got divorced but stayed good friends) the girl in the middle is Stevie (Stephanie) Knicks and the lead guitarist is Lindsey Buckingham. Buckingham and Knicks were highschool sweethearts and lived together before many years but broke up. It was not as amicable as the McVies break up but they both still wanted the band to stay together. Tough situation. Buckingham, Knicks, and McVie all sang. McVie in my opinion was the most talented songwriter followed by Knicks and Buckingham. On the groups top 16 songs, Christine wrote 8, Stevie 5, Buckingham 3. Christine passed away on November 30. Try her other hits Songbird , over my head, you make living fun. Do the live versions from this same concert. and her big solo hit you've got a hold on me. Take care
Watching this in May 2023 and your ** Road To 10,000 ** is so adorable.
Best I can piece together, they were started by Fleetwood (Mike) and McVie (John) hence Fleetwood Mc/Mac.
LOL.. I love you with the comment " She's Me-We", You have a new subscriber on me girl. Keep up the great reactions coming, you got an audience waiting!!
Your going to love Pink Floyd. Let’s go..

Lindsey and Stevie helped bring Fleetwood Mac to the stratosphere in the mid 70's into the 90's. Anything from the *Rumors album is a great place to start.* Personally I would start with "Dreams" th-cam.com/video/O5ugW4-BstE/w-d-xo.html and then "Silver Springs" Live th-cam.com/video/eDwi-8n054s/w-d-xo.html
They had been together since the’70’s, so 20, something years, at the time of this performance.
Oh definitely!
Chaka Khan recorded her version of "Everywhere".
the drummer is Mick Fleetwood.
Fleetwood Mac had five members, who another commenter already listed below. The other people on stage were auxiliary singers and such. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie (hence the name Fleetwood Mac) are the two OG members and others joined in later at various times. Another band member, Peter Green, suggested that name. You should go back and listen to music from the Peter Green era of the band. It was much more bluesy. The original version of Black Magic Woman came out of this era. Santana's version is a cover.
You really have to listen to" Paper Doll"
It has an island feel!!
I love the four obscure songs from that boxed set!! And the lyrics to "Paper Doll" are hilariously Stevie!! "She refused to wear her coat!" lol. But, somehow, it works!
They have been together since the 70s, I heard them all the time everywhere when I was kid. If you see the Don't Look Back video, that actually used a lot of USC's marching band (horn section, mainly). They always owned the Billboard charts; they were not a band they were The Super Band. If musical acts of the 70s and 80s were Superheroes, then this band was Superman. Girl in the middle is the very famous Stevie Knicks.
I'm going to suggest something off beat, that woman you say is you (Stevie Nicks, by the way) worked with The Foo Fighters on the soundtrack of a documentary called “Sound city”
The “Sound city players” as the collective called itself, did a few shows where Stevie sang the song she recorded with them. BUT, and this is my suggestion here, they also did an absolutely devastating version of the Fleetwood Mac classic “Gold dust woman.” And that's the version of that song you should react to.
“Gold dust woman” is a song about heroin addiction, something Stevie Nicks was very familiar with and in that Sound city version, the Foo Fighters build up this song to increasingly eerie levels until they unleash the full fury during the final chorus. By far the best version of that song and the most epic performance by Stevie Nicks.
Most people who listen to this band nowadays think that Stevie Nicks is the only singer, but Christine McVie ... the one doing leads here actually wrote and sang more hit songs than Stevie, and that doesn't even touch Lindsey Buckingham, who did a LOT of the writing, directing, arranging and lead guitar playing, as well as lead and background vocals. The band has gone through many lineups, but this, by far, has been the most successful.
Going back to the female lead vocalists, Stevie definitely was a great singer for them, but only because, while in the group, Lindsey directed and sculpted her vocals. That really only lasted as long as their relationship, and then, she started getting a big head ... and changing the way she sang. Her songs were more "needy and complain-y", but Christine's (my love) were almost always warm and sweet, or strong and uplifting ... just the way I want a woman to be.
OMG... was 2022... time flies
Rest in love, Christine
Stevie Nicks doing her hocus pocus 😂
Fleetwood Mac-Tusk
I think their greatest hits album has 12 tracks and Christine wrote 8 of them.
Stevie Nicks is definitely Hocus Pocus 😂
The Woman singing Christy McVie She Just Recently Passed Away

5 members-Mick Fleetwood(drums), Stevie Nicks(lead singer), Lindsey Buckingham(lead guitar), John McVie(bass), Christine McVie(lead singer on this song) …name from Mick’s last name and Mac from John and Christine McVie who were married at one time. Buckingham, Christine McVie, and Nicks have all sang lead on songs.
The three ladies in the back belong to Stevie..
I bet you are a great singer! Give us some of your samples sometime!
I just wish you would start watching the music videos first. They are so good and the sound is so much better. You can always build off them and watch the live ones later.
