She got 34 million WHEN she was wanting to retire from the business. What's wrong with that?

He could easily have said you can use the song but you can't use the band recording of it because it'll taint our brand. Or maybe the rest of the band has a say in any use of a FM recording? Dunno. Or if Warner's owns the masters do they get a say? When Landslide was used in a beer commercial was it the band version??? I can see the writer being able to give permission to use the song but not sure they can give permission to use the BAND'S recording of it??

That was the issue with "Silver Springs" for Stevie's TimeSpace, right? She could've recorded a new version of the song for the album, but Mick wouldn't let her put the FM version on it.

I'd do it in a heartbeat if my dream was to finally settle down in a mansion in the English countryside.

Yes, it was. But maybe the band was fine with it. Mick was only stubborn with SS because he wanted to use it to help sell the boxed set.

I'm glad there is a thread about this. This ad kept coming on during the news last night. I think the "cover" is fascinating. I actually rather like it.

I don't find it cringey, actually it's a pretty classic advertising choice, the same people who used to constantly hear Go Your Own Way in 1977 now belong to the same age and market target group of those who are likely to suffer from this COPD condition, so it probably seemed a no-brainer.

Like all it does is repeat "Go Your Own Way" 3 times. The first two times it sounds like women/woman singing. The third time sounds like Lindsey. It's so bizarre I think Lindsey might even be behind it.

I did a little research into Lindsey's publishing/copyright history and it looks like he has either split publishing rights (or sold publishing rights) for most songs post-Buckingham Nicks with a publishing company called Kobalt Music. Looks like they control most of what was published under the Now Sounds Music name.
So as suspected, the composition can be licensed without his permission (although I'm sure the publisher gets him to weigh in) -- but the actual original recordings for all of his songs are owned by him 100%. So if you hear the original version of the recording, it means he gave permission to have it licensed. If you hear a cover, it most likely was out of his hands, but he still gets 50% profit from the deal. Songs with multiple writers is a different story. And the publishing rights to the Buckingham Nicks songs seem to be owned by multiple people - sometimes as much as 5 different publishing companies. Hence the no cd release. It would probably require multiple attorneys and buy-outs; which is certainly doable but would take lots of time, paperwork and $$$. I think the first time the "no Fleetwood Mac song will ever be in a movie or a commercial" rule was broken was when Stevie agreed to a request to have Landslide appear in an episode of One Tree Hill. Led Zeppelin also allowed one of their songs to be played in an episode, and both deals were unprecedented for a licensing deal. I loved that the band was following the example of the Beatles by not allowing any original recordings in TV, Film or advertising; but when it became clear that the record business was dying (or changing); they slowly changed their tune.
