I was at this show in the second row, dead center. Honestly, at first I thought this was some sort of choreographed schtick. Towards the end of the song, Lindsey walked over to Stevie's mic, as usual, but she stood there frozen, back to the audience, with her hands covering her face. It seemed like the pregnant pause was going on forever until Lindsey hugged her with one arm and sang the lines and kissed her on the cheek. But she just stood there looking down, unable to move. It wasn't until the lights came up for the next song, "Tusk," that I realized it was not acting. As she was walking off stage to change outfits, I could see that she looked utterly devastated - uncontrollable tears. I'm still haunted by the devastated look on her face in that moment.
@@brookelaplant8671 Holy Cow, you are so right, I think I meant as a band Fleetwood Mac was back together.. I know before coved, they had Neil Finn replacing Lindsay, but I thought they were gonna tour with everyone..trust me I could be wrong!
My cousin and her ex spit many years ago, and yet after he got remarried and fell ill, he was calling out my cousins name as he was dying. They had made amends which was good, but in his last days he only said her name.
It was probably on No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak” video. The same thing happened with Gwen Stefani and Tony Kanal. Gwen wrote that song about Tony breaking her heart. It became a huge hit and then they had to perform it on stage beside each other every night.
This love is so rare and beautiful. Up on stage singing to each other, it's like nobody else is in the room, they are in their own world. You can feel their love, it brought me to tears. These 2 are soul mates and sometimes soul mates can't be together. I believe that their love is just too powerful for this world!
I heard the deal breaker in their relationship was the fact that she would fart under the blankets and air it out and he finally said enough Is enough!!!!
The raw emotion of having an epic love and seeing it slip away has never been displayed more powerfully than in this song. Seeing it performed live takes the emotions to another level. Not all great loves last. Many times, it’s a golden moment specific to a time and place that you never can erase or escape - even if you wanted to.
I forget sometimes that these are orchestral level musical geniuses. They lived and dreamed music. When Stephanie wrote about Lindsey and he wrote about her they were communicating to one another so deeply. Oh so deeply. Love, regret, sorrows that only their music could convey because it was so much more than words. I can still remember them live from 1976. Everyone in the concert could feel the passion. You could feel it in your heart and body.
This song , them, reminds me of my relationship with my wife. Tumultuous, passionate, toxic, loving and unequivocally grey. Two people who live for each-other but can't live with each-other.. where love sometimes is not enough to hold the broken pieces together, but like broken pieces no matter how many lovers you have in a life time non of their pieces will fit yours the way your former lover did. This video is not just a video but a 5 minute and 48 second documentary of the human condition in love and hate and pain and everlasting search for the perfect dance.
What a heart wrenching song about love and breaking up and finding others, when Stevie turns to Lindsey and sings"you will never get away from the sound of the woman that loved you", its real and full of emotion. Great band.
Stevie writes a beautiful song as this & Lindsey writes a kiss off song, go your own way. That's a slap in the face & especially when Stevie has to sing back up on it.
Daisy Jones and The Six is so similar to this. I loved that series and I never thought of these two before I start watch it. Now I get where that inspo comes from 🙂
Somewhere, out there, in another universe, these two married and had kids and sing Big Love to each other. I know their break up gave us such beautifully sad music. But I can wish.
Without a doubt the most heart wrenching loves of the rock era....you can see the love between these two when they sing.....what a shame,I think they missed their chance of the soul mate kind of love.
Both of them being alphas,you have to have give and take,the same with all relationships both parties have to give and receive,Lindsey's ego got the best of him when she chose to "Go her own way." No pun intended,not only did her albums go platinum but I think he finally realized she can and did make it on her own as well as maintain her role in Fleetwood Mac~Stevie~ keep on rocking!!!!
I think they are or were at ne time an item .... he is so cute with her, she is STILL so beautiful and ABSOLUTELY stunning!!! I'm 53 and while i know she is older than me, she sure holds her age WeLL!!PERFECTLY!!##xoxox
There's something about Stevie and Lindsey's love for each other that is unexplainable, I watch them on stage and listen to the lyrics of their songs, and it moves me so much, I sadly have never seen them live although It's my dream to. But whenever i hear them and see them obviously so deeply in love but not being able to be together breaks me apart and sends me to tears, I didn't grow up in their era and I'm envious of my parents for that sole purpose, I would've loved to have seen them when they where all so young and the rock n' roll was the to die for. I will never truly know/understand what it is about them but they bring me into a different universe when I listen to FM and see live performances of them on stage together, I hope that one day they get back together, whether it's in this life or another, they deserve each other even if it is away from FM,
I wish you could have seen them live once in your life. I’ve seen them and Stevie 22 times since I was 14 in 1976, I’m 62 now. I named my daughter RHIANNON due to my hearing that song at the age of 14. She so fits her name to a tee!! Stevie & Lindsey are soulmates plain & simple until the day they die. ❤
Another rare rock love story played out on stage and off. There are so few couples I can remember that while they parted ways and found new love there is still something rare and precious between them. All we can do is watch and love them and the music. Just Wow!
The greatest love story of my time!! Good and bad. They stuck with it and wrote some amazing music from it. No other band, or two people could go through what these did!
Noticing the date this was recorded (late Nov '97), & recalling that Lindsey had his 1st child in early July '98, makes me wonder if Stevie hadn't maybe found this news out shortly b4. Like, say, after all the "what-if" years, something as monumental as him having a child finally put the nail in the proverbial coffin..thus, this elevated level of already-intense-emotion being the result. I mean, I KNOW they'd been apart for a lifetime, but it's so clear that their love was still very much alive.
He pondered that same thought in an interview. I think she was pissed off and hurt. I think that’s a reason she’s stayed pretty much single. When artists get hurt…. We get butt hurt and wallow forever.
The love story that took the 80s into their world .Took Fleetwood Mac to the top of the mountain. Took our dreams . Took our thoughts . Took our hopes and finally took our hearts . The greatist love and loss story . Bless you all, and thank you for the journey ❤
Wow... I'm speechless... *clears throat* This almost made me cry, and this really means a lot as I don't cry easily. Huge lump in my throat... guess I better stop here and try to compose myself... I'm emotionally shattered... Good night, my fellow FM fans...!
Their eyes and souls. Tells of what they had together. What they want and can't have again and, we will sadly never will be again. They truly loved and still love each other.
@kimberlydavis-lx5nn...Stevie seems to have an issue with talking about it all the time. Lindsey has moved on and she hasn't. Personally, I think she's angrier now because he has been married with children for over 20 years and she has no one. Most of the footage is prior to 2000 before he married.
@@Elizabeth-dw6lc Don't be fooled, Lindsey hasn't completely moved on from Stevie either, at least not in heart. He can only say so much because he has grown children, and a wife, but it seems they are together for those kids primarily. If you read between the lines of both, his and Stevie's words and songs, it's clear. *And a lot of this footage is after he married.
Watched this version of this great song and be damned if someone didn't start chopping onions. A truly fantastic piece of music preformed by two Souls totaly in Love.For all time!
They had talked about performing together since 1968, so when you see that emotional moment, I just think it's that overwhelming feeling that they're still alive, doing what they love, a song that at the time had been buried on a b-side until "The Dance" where it breathed new life 20 years later.
The quality of the lyrics to this song are incredible - rich, timeless, penetrating and powerful. Stevie's voice and the rest of the band accompanying her send chills down my spine. If anyone wants to know what true love is really about - just watch the interplay on stage between Stevie and Lindsey are like. I have not seen anything on any video on this site to equal or come close to the raw, overwhelming emotion in their looks and embrace at the end. Better to have loved , than to not at all
Raw emotion - words can't describe how touching and accurate this song is. You never forget a woman you loved. I'm sure Lindsey will never forget Stevie and she him.
I'm a 56yr old Proud Black Metalhead, but when I found this tribute and watched it. I balled my eyes out like a baby... So moving and beautiful... I truly believe that Lindsey and Stevie will be back together in this life or the next... It is their destiny...❤😢
To see Stevie and Lindsey sing this song together for each other is so emotional... I cry every time... it's a shame they couldn't have worked things out..Now listen to Time to Say Goodbye... it'll break your heart.
I wonder what was happening on the very last bit. Lindsey looked upset and Stevie put her arms around him. Throughout this video, whenever Lindsey hugs her he closes his eyes and it's as if he's smelling her, in a good way I mean. It's like he's 'come home.'
I know all the " its only an act for the stage" or " they relive it only on stage " but the one thing I've never heard any one mention about this video is... have ya'll noticed it's ALWAYS Lindsey that kisses her, cuddles in close with his eyes closed as Michelle said, drinks her in with his eyes.. I don't care what they are, what they aren't. All I know is they make millions of us happy and sad at the same time, watching them onstage. And that, is what it's all about. We will always wish they had gotten married but if we're honest, it wouldn't be nearly as magical as seeing them like they are now,and wishing and hoping. Kind of, be careful what you wish for... we'd be happy for about 10 minutes if they got married, then we'd go see them on stage or in a video and that eternal hoping, longing, wishful looks and chemistry that now sizzles back and forth, would be gone because they got married .
Thank you for all your replies. princessoffire1107 that's the phrase I was looking for "drinking her in." Stevie always says she doesn't like Lindsey, but I think she protests too much and actions speak louder than words.
that Stevie not only had the most popular songs in the group, but she had the most successful solo career, but as classy as she is she always put the band as her 1st priority and never forced any of her solo material on the band..she kept them seperate.
Stevie nicks has been my favorite singer as long as I can remember , & I love both of them performing together, sounded amazing & it brought a tear to my eye , well I cried a lot , I hope one day I will be able to see her concert , one day when I'm done raising my amazing kids .. beautiful song !!
Love never dies! Stevie and Lindsey will ALWAYS have a very strong bond and a time tested love story! I love just watching the true magic between them! xx
I so know the pain of loving a woman who can't love you back! So many songs written about that very subject. 26 years later and I still love you Lisa Hollibaugh!
Watching this..again..just made me start crying. I'm like..why are these two not together? Lindsey has always been kind of a geeky awkward guy..but I've never seen a man look at a woman with so much love in his eyes before. I'm both envious and sad for them both.
Stevie Nicks, where to start. She is so wonderful. My mom and I listened to her and the wonderful band. She's a great person. Listen to her lyrics. That says it all.
This is heartbreaking, two people still in love but past events prevail. He adores her, she wants him, but is hesitant. So sweet and sorrowful...I love them both, they are a force together and apart. CroNix99 you captured their undying love~
+Lea Benson I often thought that too, until watching many documentaries of Stevie, Lindsey and the Band, I now suspect this is a big money earner for Fleetwood Mac and an act they play out on each tour. I think Joe Walsh still pulls the strings of Stevie's heart. You really think Kristen Messner would sit back happily and watch a world tour if they still had deep feelings. As much as I love Fleetwood mac, this is all part of the game that "Players" play.
This is the most profound and heart wrenching video I've ever seen . I can feel the love they feel for each other. I do believe that in life we have all experienced this at some point as sad as it may be . I feel that this story here is actually what you call true love . I have watched this video numerous times and each time the pain always feels the same that never goes away. Stevie you are a woman of true grace and elegance. Love Gabriele ❤️🇨🇦
He loves her truly! He's always been in love with her since he and her was boyfriend and girlfriend! He will always be in love with her till he dies and I think even afterwards!
When we saw "The Dance" and Stevie and Lindsey sang this song to each other... Everywhere we were..people were crying.. I have never been to such a more moving performance in my life......
I saw that concert several times on TH-cam (wish I was there In person) and yes they were absolutely singing to each other for much of it. I believe they started touring again after “The Dance.” ❤. Phenomenal…
I was fortunate enough to have recorded "Silver Spring" off my car radio when it ce out on the B side of a 45. It tugged at my heart then and still does.
I remember I heard Stevie say in an interview that if she had never became famous that she would have married Lindsey and had a family but she could never have that because she was constantly on tour and she had to put her dream first
WOW.....words will never be able to express the deep love those two have for each other. Believe me this has just made me look at my own personal relationship a little different ...Thank You
When they were at a reunion concert and Lindsay was really rocking it, Stevie took a step back and said " oh no what have I done. " So so so sad. They are true soul mates.
How could you not love her and i am sure she still loves lindsey and they will both probaly love each other tell thet die i know my wife and i use to listen to rumors at her house when we were 13 years old that was in 1978 we still listen to it together i couldnt imagine what it took to work together everyday and have what they had together how hard that was for them but i no they like me and my wife will love each other tell they die there great and we will always love Fleetwood Mac we seen them 3 times live and it was always great god bless Christine Mcvie RIP yyou will be missed but never forgotten
No more powerful words time cast a spell on you but you won’t forget me…. All the gestures of love…. There’s different kinds. One time. First love ….they will be together again🕊️🕊️🔮
their love for each other will never go away but to keep that love alive through friendship is truly something. I had a love/friendship like that, but he passed away a couple years ago, today marks 2 years
This song, my favourite from the rumours album. Encompasses the relationship and love stevie and Lindsay will always have for each other. She is a legend
Fact is, it never made it to the actual album release. It was the B side of the single Go Your Own Way. Ironically, this is Stevie's response to Lindsay's GYOW. It was not until 20 years later, on the MTV Special and Stevie's emotional charged singing of it, the last half of it with Stevie & Lindsay in a locked eyes stare down (with Christine behind them watching intently) that he song finally found its place in Fleetwood Mac lore & music lexicon as it charted. It finally did appear on the box set.
Amazing--hard to watch this and I knowing the back story of this song and listening and feeling the powerful, stingingly sad lyrics and sound. And how she cried in the end made me cry. She struggled to get this song played and published--it is one of Fleetwood Macs most powerful and iconic songs.
this song reminds me of how precious my time is here....I've love and lost...so what?...but one in particular stands out...and I still see her from time to time...I wish I would have made better decisions...will she ever know that???...no...but it's so apparent with these two...love is there...no one can just turn it off...you have it or you don't...regardless of the situation....absolutely beautiful..
Yes, it seems to be that Stevie and Lindsey share a strong, undying love. And more than that, an intangible chemistry. Makes for unforgettable performances!
I saw the performance Last night at The Classic West. Sadily, they did not perform this song and I noticed that both were trying not to show their love on stage, only one hug between them. I can only assume that it was to spare his family. I saw them in 2015 and all I could think of was how hard it must be for his wife to watch them perform. It was so obvious that Stevie's love will always be in his soul and his in hers.
So sad. They really love each other and he married someone else. Deep down their love is always going to be there. I really believe that the two of them could of had a family and career. This is a great story and they do share their music.
I love watching videos of them singing this song live. You can truly feel her pain. They can say they hate each other in interviews and have moved on but i think they had such an incredible love story. They both went back and forth trying to hurt each other but you can always feel such passion from them any time they are on stage. There is no way to fake that. He may have got married and had kids with another woman but I think his heart will always belong to Stevie.
I think this was around the time when Lindsey found out that his girlfriend was pregnant. Everyone knows that Stevie and Lindsey's relationship was rekindled during The Dance tour. I think it's because Lindsey fell in love with Stevie again when he saw that she was very much the girl she was when they were together before the drugs, seeing as how this tour was the first time they toured together since Stevie became totally sober and wasn't on any kind of drugs. It isn't hard to assume they had a fling during this time. Just look at videos of the band onstage and during interviews in 1997, he can barely keep his hands off her. But then Lindsey's girlfriend became unexpectedly pregnant during this time and that put an abrupt end to their relationship once and for all. You can really hear the utter devastation in BOTH of their voices. Goodness.
I read some of the comments, but I'm not sure that they are acting completely. I know that after 60 years that I still feel the same way about the frst woman that I loved. It's been twenty years since I last saw her , but I still love her more than anyone that came after her. I know that I will see her again and I always hope that she will feel the same way about me even though we've moed on.
+Jake Drew I don't believe it's all an act either. I truly believe that they do care very much for one another. They've grown & matured & can now be friends.
Dave La Violette: I understand. Carol Channing fell in love with a boy when she was 14 years old. He moved away and after growing up, being married and then divorcing after many years, she in her EIGHTIES saw him again at a class reunion. They got together, professed their love to each other, married, and had a wonderful time until he passed away years later.
Beautiful video as well as audio!! My heart is broken over the loss of Christine McVie! Lindsey just had emergency open heart surgery. His wife said it saved his life, but badly damaged his vocal cords! We will never hear the voices of Christine, Lindsey, & Stevie, again!!
Wow. I'd only seen the performance where near the song's end Stevie is giving Lindsey a withering stare. This vid gives me a whole new perspective on how they felt about each other during this tour. It's deeply heartwarming. ❤❤
this is the kind of love ive been searching for my whole life...when he breathes in her scent like rose,you know how deep they still are connected.Even after all the interviews ive watched with her,the latest being the one in England in 1973 about her hour and half of just talk with Lindsey about what they were,and if they can put it all behind them and still have that feeling showing thru so the audiences know it as truth and not just playing in a play for us..does that make sense> I will always love and respect them
When Lindsey looks at Stevie you can see in his eyes he’s saying : « I love you more than anyone in this world, but now our love is impossible. I miss you Stevie » it’s just so sad. I can say I’m only 14 ( and i’m french, so i’m sorry for my bad english) but when i see that I’m crying all the time 😭 They are made to be together

Where did u see someone say they’re back together?!?!? Sounds too good to be true… but I know his wife filed for divorce last year
@@brookelaplant8671 Holy Cow, you are so right, I think I meant as a band Fleetwood Mac was back together.. I know before coved, they had Neil Finn replacing Lindsay, but I thought they were gonna tour with everyone..trust me I could be wrong!
They will always love each other .
I would love to see them on stage together just once! imagine the only place you can show your love for someone is up there singing
I have a feeling that the last words on each of their lips as they breathe their last breath will be the other's name. Love that has never died
My cousin and her ex spit many years ago, and yet after he got remarried and fell ill, he was calling out my cousins name as he was dying. They had made amends which was good, but in his last days he only said her name.
❤
Agreed
I think you're watching too many fairy tales.
Lulu you read my mind as I’m watching this video definitely a soul connection between these two❤
Nothing better than writing a song about the man who broke your heart and having him play guitar next to you.
Seen this comment on another video.
@@dawnjeanballard2874 really? Do you know where?

very sad...

Well said... only they truly understand but still makes my heart flutter...there is definitely love there.

It's her pride and stubbornness that prevents it I think. She's quite stubborn.

The joy and love in LB’s eyes when he looks at Stevie is always there. I hope they have time together before it’s too late.

Maybe we take our true loves with us through all of our lifetimes - that's how I feel anyway
So true! Powerful words?
@@zeph6439 If it is TRUE love... no time, nor distance... will ever erase it. Regardless of the circumstances.
This was my first time hearing this song and for some odd reason the tears just started to fall right away. I can feel the hurt, and that's powerful.
Wow... I'm speechless... *clears throat*
This almost made me cry, and this really means a lot as I don't cry easily. Huge lump in my throat... guess I better stop here and try to compose myself... I'm emotionally shattered... Good night, my fellow FM fans...!
you can see how much he loves her
don't be so foolish.
It's like one of those first romances that never quite burned out.
One of the best songs i've ever heard in my entire life
💚💛👍
Beautiful... Such real & raw eternal love, awesome 🕊️♥️🌠 made me cry, I'd say that's true Love and always will be... No matter what.
The love these 2 have for each other is so real , it's so sad that they aren't together, watching this has brought me to tears x
Their eyes and souls. Tells of what they had together. What they want and can't have again and, we will sadly never will be again. They truly loved and still love each other.
Without a doubt
He did not love her. He is a narcissistic asshole who used her, then discarded her .. Her poor 16 yo soul never recovered....
@kimberlydavis-lx5nn...Stevie seems to have an issue with talking about it all the time. Lindsey has moved on and she hasn't. Personally, I think she's angrier now because he has been married with children for over 20 years and she has no one. Most of the footage is prior to 2000 before he married.
@@IamAnson777 I think you might have it backwards, but I do love them both.
@@Elizabeth-dw6lc Don't be fooled, Lindsey hasn't completely moved on from Stevie either, at least not in heart. He can only say so much because he has grown children, and a wife, but it seems they are together for those kids primarily. If you read between the lines of both, his and Stevie's words and songs, it's clear.
*And a lot of this footage is after he married.
Watched this version of this great song and be damned if someone didn't start chopping onions. A truly fantastic piece of music preformed by two Souls totaly in Love.For all time!
They had talked about performing together since 1968, so when you see that emotional moment, I just think it's that overwhelming feeling that they're still alive, doing what they love, a song that at the time had been buried on a b-side until "The Dance" where it breathed new life 20 years later.
Imagine the energy and emotion in the crowd.
That’s how they as artists have connected with us.
The quality of the lyrics to this song are incredible - rich, timeless, penetrating and powerful. Stevie's voice and the rest of the band accompanying her send chills down my spine. If anyone wants to know what true love is really about - just watch the interplay on stage between Stevie and Lindsey are like. I have not seen anything on any video on this site to equal or come close to the raw, overwhelming emotion in their looks and embrace at the end. Better to have loved , than to not at all
I still get chills watching them singing together while looking at each other ! So much love/hate/passion
She can't sing is she that high
Have YOU ever tried to sing and cry at the same time?
Oh gosh, at 3:57 he's crying on her shoulder...says it all in my opinion. He still loves her....
Raw emotion - words can't describe how touching and accurate this song is. You never forget a woman you loved. I'm sure Lindsey will never forget Stevie and she him.
everytime i hear this song on the radio or the video, i tend to cry since i am a fan of stevie nicks.
brought tears to the eyes of a gnarly old biker....fantastic video!
Even Narlý ole bikers have hearts
Susan Keller
Not carburetors ? Haha
Dave Z tears here too.... he knows he messed up with her, sad their best music is about their breakup
❤ luv love LOVE.
NEVER GETS OLD 40 YRS AGO WHERE DID THE TIME GO
Oh my god, his doing the last lines COMPLETELY changes the song in a new and different way, i got chills
They loved each other to death. They just couldn't live with each other. Happens all the time.
nah he married someone 20 years younger you're being played
suzycreamcheesez players only love you when you're playing
oh lord right you are!
They seem to have so much love for one anothet but.have to live separate. I understand that.
You tell me !
I'm a 56yr old Proud Black Metalhead, but when I found this tribute and watched it. I balled my eyes out like a baby... So moving and beautiful... I truly believe that Lindsey and Stevie will be back together in this life or the next... It is their destiny...❤😢
I think Lindsay and stevie are probably one of the greatest love stories The obviousness in their performance. I LOVE IT! !!!!!
He loved her desperately .... And if he hadn't loved her so strongly they may have made it... It's obvious he still loves her...
AND she would never stop loving him😢
lol, how ridiculous.
I've never even seen such admiration, and unconditional love as these two people have for each other on stage.
To see Stevie and Lindsey sing this song together for each other is so emotional... I cry every time... it's a shame they couldn't have worked things out..Now listen to Time to Say Goodbye... it'll break your heart.
I wonder what was happening on the very last bit. Lindsey looked upset and Stevie put her arms around him. Throughout this video, whenever Lindsey hugs her he closes his eyes and it's as if he's smelling her, in a good way I mean. It's like he's 'come home.'
I think he wanted to kiss her, but she shook her head, to say no. It's like magic with those two, seeing them on stage.
michelle88960 I think he is trying not to cry honestly
I know all the " its only an act for the stage" or " they relive it only on stage " but the one thing I've never heard any one mention about this video is... have ya'll noticed it's ALWAYS Lindsey that kisses her, cuddles in close with his eyes closed as Michelle said, drinks her in with his eyes.. I don't care what they are, what they aren't. All I know is they make millions of us happy and sad at the same time, watching them onstage. And that, is what it's all about. We will always wish they had gotten married but if we're honest, it wouldn't be nearly as magical as seeing them like they are now,and wishing and hoping. Kind of, be careful what you wish for... we'd be happy for about 10 minutes if they got married, then we'd go see them on stage or in a video and that eternal hoping, longing, wishful looks and chemistry that now sizzles back and forth, would be gone because they got married .
Thank you for all your replies. princessoffire1107 that's the phrase I was looking for "drinking her in." Stevie always says she doesn't like Lindsey, but I think she protests too much and actions speak louder than words.
michelle88960 i don’t think she likes him either. That’s LOVE ❤️
that Stevie not only had the most popular songs in the group, but she had the most successful solo career, but as classy as she is she always put the band as her 1st priority and never forced any of her solo material on the band..she kept them seperate.
Actions speak louder than words....Beautiful!!!!!
That was so beautiful, I cried. I have this song stuck in my head almost all the time, anyway. Thanks for this version.
Stevie nicks has been my favorite singer as long as I can remember , & I love both of them performing together, sounded amazing & it brought a tear to my eye , well I cried a lot , I hope one day I will be able to see her concert , one day when I'm done raising my amazing kids .. beautiful song !!
Love never dies! Stevie and Lindsey will ALWAYS have a very strong bond and a time tested love story! I love just watching the true magic between them! xx
They have such a passion for their art and love and respect for each other. Stevie and Lindsey are tremendous artists who are a joy to watch.
I can tell, by the way he looks at her & I feel the love in his hugs
That man still has some deep feelings for Stevie... He still loves her
I so know the pain of loving a woman who can't love you back! So many songs written about that very subject. 26 years later and I still love you Lisa Hollibaugh!
Watching this..again..just made me start crying. I'm like..why are these two not together? Lindsey has always been kind of a geeky awkward guy..but I've never seen a man look at a woman with so much love in his eyes before. I'm both envious and sad for them both.
Yo creo que la complicada es ella
Stevie Nicks, where to start. She is so wonderful. My mom and I listened to her and the wonderful band. She's a great person. Listen to her lyrics. That says it all.
So powerful so beautiful so raw so real. .
Brings me back to a time ...
We lived this time they touched us deeply we related to them
Greatest band ❤
Lindsey and Stevie are soulmates. Anybody with eyes can see they've always been meant to be together. No ones magic compares to theirs.
Was at the Jersey concert on Sept 26th 1997. I FINALLY got to see them live! I will never forget that night! I just ADORE this band!
You lucky bastard.❤❤❤
They still love each other ❤
Ama nada.😂
don't be ridiculous.
I just love the connection between these two. Something magical. Everytime I hear this song and see them perform it it raises my pores.
And if those two couldn't hack it, what chance do the rest of us have?
Ikr??
Keep drugs, drink and superstardom out of the mix, and you'll have a better shot at it. Their circumstances screwed it up.😢
This is heartbreaking, two people still in love but past events prevail. He adores her, she wants him, but is hesitant. So sweet and sorrowful...I love them both, they are a force together and apart. CroNix99 you captured their undying love~
+Lea Benson I often thought that too, until watching many documentaries of Stevie, Lindsey and the Band, I now suspect this is a big money earner for Fleetwood Mac and an act they play out on each tour. I think Joe Walsh still pulls the strings of Stevie's heart. You really think Kristen Messner would sit back happily and watch a world tour if they still had deep feelings. As much as I love Fleetwood mac, this is all part of the game that "Players" play.
F41NXS maybe but real feelings don't die. And they relive it with every song. I'm sure they've moved on, but those feelings are still there.
+FafiLPDoll to me they are still the romance of the century. they are still great friends!
Paula Cornaglia I love them! I love watching them fight on stage and then make up.
I know right? You can see how much they still love each other. They always look at each other during songs. Wish they would get back together.
This is the most profound and heart wrenching video I've ever seen . I can feel the love they feel for each other. I do believe that in life we have all experienced this at some point as sad as it may be . I feel that this story here is actually what you call true love . I have watched
this video numerous times and each time the pain always feels the same that never goes away. Stevie you are a woman of true grace and elegance. Love Gabriele ❤️🇨🇦
He loves her truly! He's always been in love with her since he and her was boyfriend and girlfriend! He will always be in love with her till he dies and I think even afterwards!
I feel the same way.
As it should be for all...
When we saw "The Dance" and Stevie and Lindsey sang this song to each other... Everywhere we were..people were crying.. I have never been to such a more moving performance in my life......
I saw that concert several times on TH-cam (wish I was there In person) and yes they were absolutely singing to each other for much of it. I believe they started touring again after “The Dance.” ❤. Phenomenal…
I had a love like that many yrs ago, and I'm married now all these years later but, that was the once in a lifetime love that millions search for 😢
I was fortunate enough to have recorded "Silver Spring" off my car radio when it ce out on the B side of a 45. It tugged at my heart then and still does.
What a deep love they have. What an honor it is for them to share it with us.
I remember I heard Stevie say in an interview that if she had never became famous that she would have married Lindsey and had a family but she could never have that because she was constantly on tour and she had to put her dream first
WOW.....words will never be able to express the deep love those two have for each other. Believe me this has just made me look at my own personal relationship a little different ...Thank You
When they were at a reunion concert and Lindsay was really rocking it, Stevie took a step back and said " oh no what have I done. "
So so so sad. They are true soul mates.
How could you not love her and i am sure she still loves lindsey and they will both probaly love each other tell thet die i know my wife and i use to listen to rumors at her house when we were 13 years old that was in 1978 we still listen to it together i couldnt imagine what it took to work together everyday and have what they had together how hard that was for them but i no they like me and my wife will love each other tell they die there great and we will always love Fleetwood Mac we seen them 3 times live and it was always great god bless Christine Mcvie RIP yyou will be missed but never forgotten
No more powerful words time cast a spell on you but you won’t forget me…. All the gestures of love…. There’s different kinds.
One time.
First love ….they will be together again🕊️🕊️🔮
their love for each other will never go away but to keep that love alive through friendship is truly something. I had a love/friendship like that, but he passed away a couple years ago, today marks 2 years
This song, my favourite from the rumours album. Encompasses the relationship and love stevie and Lindsay will always have for each other. She is a legend
Fact is, it never made it to the actual album release. It was the B side of the single Go Your Own Way. Ironically, this is Stevie's response to Lindsay's GYOW. It was not until 20 years later, on the MTV Special and Stevie's emotional charged singing of it, the last half of it with Stevie & Lindsay in a locked eyes stare down (with Christine behind them watching intently) that he song finally found its place in Fleetwood Mac lore & music lexicon as it charted. It finally did appear on the box set.
I love this song. How can you *not* cry listening to this song? 😢
Right?
@@PhyreReighn I don't know why I cry listening to this song. I'm not in love with anyone, nor am I married to anyone. 😭
No greater love for each other than two magnificent individuals, in this life and the next.
Amazing--hard to watch this and I knowing the back story of this song and listening and feeling the powerful, stingingly sad lyrics and sound. And how she cried in the end made me cry. She struggled to get this song played and published--it is one of Fleetwood Macs most powerful and iconic songs.
Very emotional watching these two soul mates! Always and forever Stevie and Lindsey!
I love Stevie and the love story she shares with Lynsey, it's so beautiful to watch them sing together.
am I the only one who gets teary eyed watching these two perform together?
words fail me, true love played out on stage, heart wrenching
It is through their music and history the greatest love story ever told , but the most saddest.
this song reminds me of how precious my time is here....I've love and lost...so what?...but one in particular stands out...and I still see her from time to time...I wish I would have made better decisions...will she ever know that???...no...but it's so apparent with these two...love is there...no one can just turn it off...you have it or you don't...regardless of the situation....absolutely beautiful..
Such a beautiful, bittersweet love song - sung by an amazing singer!
Yes, it seems to be that Stevie and Lindsey share a strong, undying love. And more than that, an intangible chemistry. Makes for unforgettable performances!
These two, WOW!!! Such passion xxx
I saw the performance Last night at The Classic West. Sadily, they did not perform this song and I noticed that both were trying not to show their love on stage, only one hug between them. I can only assume that it was to spare his family. I saw them in 2015 and all I could think of was how hard it must be for his wife to watch them perform. It was so obvious that Stevie's love will always be in his soul and his in hers.
So sad. They really love each other and he married someone else. Deep down their love is always going to be there. I really believe that the two of them could of had a family and career. This is a great story and they do share their music.
I love watching videos of them singing this song live. You can truly feel her pain. They can say they hate each other in interviews and have moved on but i think they had such an incredible love story. They both went back and forth trying to hurt each other but you can always feel such passion from them any time they are on stage. There is no way to fake that. He may have got married and had kids with another woman but I think his heart will always belong to Stevie.
Romeo and Juliet? Nah... There's no love like Lindsey's But who the heck knows what a woman wants, right?
I think this was around the time when Lindsey found out that his girlfriend was pregnant. Everyone knows that Stevie and Lindsey's relationship was rekindled during The Dance tour. I think it's because Lindsey fell in love with Stevie again when he saw that she was very much the girl she was when they were together before the drugs, seeing as how this tour was the first time they toured together since Stevie became totally sober and wasn't on any kind of drugs. It isn't hard to assume they had a fling during this time. Just look at videos of the band onstage and during interviews in 1997, he can barely keep his hands off her. But then Lindsey's girlfriend became unexpectedly pregnant during this time and that put an abrupt end to their relationship once and for all. You can really hear the utter devastation in BOTH of their voices. Goodness.
SAD
That explains a lot.
WRONG
penny miller 'WRONG'? That's it? Explain, instead of one word in all caps, what happened,
+synth on a plinth I know, right? lmao!
So so much love no denying that . SILVER SPRINGS . Breathtaking when they are on stage . Don’t care always will love them together 😢😢❤️❤️🎶🎶
If I was married yo him, I pray I'd have the strength to tell him to go be with her. Such true love between these two.
I read some of the comments, but I'm not sure that they are acting completely. I know that after 60 years that I still feel the same way about the frst woman that I loved. It's been twenty years since I last saw her , but I still love her more than anyone that came after her. I know that I will see her again and I always hope that she will feel the same way about me even though we've moed on.
+Jake Drew I don't believe it's all an act either. I truly believe that they do care very much for one another. They've grown & matured & can now be friends.
Dave La Violette I'm sure she never forgot you.But it doesn't matter anymore.Sorry, but it's true.
Dave La Violette kla
Dave La Violette: I understand. Carol Channing fell in love with a boy when she was 14 years old. He moved away and after growing up, being married and then divorcing after many years, she in her EIGHTIES saw him again at a class reunion. They got together, professed their love to each other, married, and had a wonderful time until he passed away years later.
Beautiful video as well as audio!! My heart is broken over the loss of Christine McVie! Lindsey just had emergency open heart surgery. His wife said it saved his life, but badly damaged his vocal cords!
We will never hear the voices of Christine, Lindsey, & Stevie, again!!
Right? RIP Christine - I saw Stevie in person a mo before Christine McVie passed and was blown away. 40 yrs later and just WoW. Cant get enough
🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️😢😢🎶🎼✌️🌹
Wow. I'd only seen the performance where near the song's end Stevie is giving Lindsey a withering stare. This vid gives me a whole new perspective on how they felt about each other during this tour. It's deeply heartwarming. ❤❤
this is the kind of love ive been searching for my whole life...when he breathes in her scent like rose,you know how deep they still are connected.Even after all the interviews ive watched with her,the latest being the one in England in 1973 about her hour and half of just talk with Lindsey about what they were,and if they can put it all behind them and still have that feeling showing thru so the audiences know it as truth and not just playing in a play for us..does that make sense> I will always love and respect them
There will always be this special love between them!
When Lindsey looks at Stevie you can see in his eyes he’s saying : « I love you more than anyone in this world, but now our love is impossible. I miss you Stevie » it’s just so sad. I can say I’m only 14 ( and i’m french, so i’m sorry for my bad english) but when i see that I’m crying all the time 😭 They are made to be together
