Songs That Sound Like Fleetwood Mac
The song that initiated this thread for me is Dreamworld by Rilo Kiley. I kind of always felt it had the sound but I hadn't heard it in a long time. Listening to it today really made the light bulb go off in my head. It totally sounds like something Lindsey would have done with the band in recent years.

This song was a straight up rip of "Dreams" at the time.

Mika - Origin of Love (Mika said he wanted to say “I love you” like Fleetwood Mac)

I always get Mac, or more specifically, Lindsey vibes from one of my favorite bands American Analog Set and the frontman's side project Wooden Birds, in terms of songwriting & the minimal, quirky-pop aspects of the production

Like the Weather by 10,000 Maniacs

I don't see it but it's okay Maneskin
This Italian rock band's hit from last summer apparently was composed having as references John Frusciante/Red Hot Chili Peppers for the guitar and Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac for the voice:

I have one that will blow you away. TLC Unpretty. Back in the late 90s, Stevie heard the song and instantly loved the Fleetwood Mac sound and feel to the song. I read Stevie's quote before really paying attention to the song. Stevie is so right. I posted the music track without any singing. Its vintage Lindsey and almost has a Tusky quality beat. I totally get what Stevie was saying. If you remember, Stevie loved the song so much that she hired TLC's producer to produce TISRL before Sheryl came aboard and messed it all up :eek:
Even the guitar sounds very much like a Lindsey track. Take a listen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BryEYawYnzU |
I Need You by the Beatles sounds like something Christine would write and George's guitar riff sounds like something Lindsey would've done in the 80's. Just goes to show how ahead of their time they were.
