Fleetwood Mac – Go your own way Live 1979
May 15th, 2010
The ultimate break-up song. The ultimate pop song. “Go Your Own Way” has such a passionate, furious driving beat that takes you to such a climactic explosive high, only to bring you down with the realization that it’s really about the heartache of ending a relationship with someone you love. This song perfectly captures these feelings of hurt and anger. “Go Your Own Way” was written by Lindsey Buckingham during the Rumours sessions. Lindsey has said he usually does not write the lyrics to his songs first, but rather initially has the music track in place prior to adding the lyrics. Lindsey’s passionate guitar playing is what brings his feelings into his songs, while the addition of the lyrics creates a delicate balance between this guitar playing and putting his feelings into words. “Go Your Own Way” is a truthful song with intense emotions of love and fury that originate from the heart. The song reflects the feelings he had revolving around the ending of his relationship with fellow band member and romantic partner at the time, Stevie Nicks. The music and lyrics show a man plagued by anger, confusion, and disbelief. Through Lindsey’s eyes, he paints quite a different picture of what breaking-up feels like than what Stevie has portrayed about the same relationship in her songs at this time (see the mysterious “Dreams” and the haunting “Silver Springs.”) “Loving you, isn’t the right thing to do, how can I ever change things that I feel.” Lindsey is trying to convince …

@sweeperchick yeah since i saw a 2009 bbc documentary in which stevie described how she felt about GYOW (she said there were times she wanted to go over to lindsey and kill him). and about buckingham, yeah he’s hot, but he also had this attitude problem. the good days he was brilliant and the bad days he was terrible. although I still agree they should get together again. but they’re still healing. stevie needs to learn to trust lindsey again. that’s what mick fleetwood said in an interview.

@WatchYourAttitude – Dude, I think that every time I hear this song. Plus I don’t know why she would even let him go, Buckingham is hot. Also, it’s kind of like The Beatles when Paul was writing songs about being pissed off with John / vice versa.

@NicksandSlick Lindsey almost killed her over the infidelity issue, but I suppose they might be friends now–one really hopes so! Great band when they liked each other!

1:13 Love it. Stevie is a crack up.
She picks up a Penquin Doll and points it at
” Go Your Own Way ” then gives it a little kiss.
