Eva Cassidy's cover of "Songbird" is beautiful.

I won't get on you for it. Billy singing that song is one of the things that got me into the Mac so I adore it. Smashing Pumpkins got me through my teenage years so I had trust in Billy that he was on to something.

I wonder what the biggest cover was? I reckon it was [I]Black Magic Woman[I] when it was covered by Santana. Most people recognise it as his song.

On a more positive note, I love Status Quo's Don't Stop and Black Crowes/Jimmy Page's Oh Well! Would have loved to have heard Robert Plant singing it! Last edited by WarmSir3; 12-06-2009 at 07:20 AM.. |

I love this cover. I'm a huge fan of Nickel Creek, and now Sara's solo stuff, too.
Also like the Smashing Pumpkins' Landslide, but I can't stand the Dixie Chicks version. Which is weird, cause I'm a bluegrass freak. I think they just missed the point of the song. |

Big wave to a fellow Nickel Creek fan! Have you heard their version of Toxic? Trust me, go with it...

HUZZAH! Right back at ya!
I have heard their version of Toxic, it's the definitive version, in my opinion. I wish there was an album version or somethin. Whaddaya think of their cover of I Want You Back? Btw, hi everybody, I'm new here, and also pretty new to Fleetwood Mac. Can't get enough of 'em at the moment, I've spent way too much time blasting the Tusk album and rolling around on the floor. Anyhow, great place y'all've got goin' here. Very informative. |

Anyone hear Ms Lindsay Lohan's cover of Edge of Seventeen? *vomit* WHY!? WHY, LINDSAY, WHY!?!?!?!?!?
Edit - I am aware this isn't a FM song. lol. My mind was stuck on Stevie for a minute there (always). |

I actually don't mind Wilson Phillips Go Your Own Way either. It was a wholly new take on the song... and I respect that. The layered harmonies are very Fleetwood Mac. And I detest Wilson Phillips... so it takes a LOT for me to admit I like their version of GYOW . I really like Matchbox Twenty's version of Never Going Back Again too, again, because it's such an entirely different take on the original. And it really works. I know Lindsey feels the song's subject matter is about coming out of the darkness, thus his prosaic approach to it on Rumours. But there's a definite dark undertone to the lyrics, which Matchbox Twenty totally cashed in upon. I like it! |

I'm really surprised you know who he is! I thought he was just a local Austin attraction. He actually lived around the corner from me in Austin when I was a kid. I had no idea he did those covers... I'll have to track them down!

Meh. I just don't like Lindsay Lohan, that's all. lol.
I also don't like Rob Thomas. All his Matchbox 20 songs to me sound the same! And they're all about germs. "I got a disease", "Unwell" etc...GET TO A DOCTOR, MAN! lol |

This board is great for learning something new about F Mac! I never knew that Cyndi Lauper covered You Make Loving Fun. I need to go look for that!
I love both Tori Amos's and The Dixie's Chicks' version of Landslide. I hate most of that Rumours cover CD. But, I heard a great version of I Know I'm Not Wrong. I posted about it in another place, but I should have put that post here! They are called the 1900's and below is a link to them doing it live. I'm still trying to get the version their studio version that I heard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pWcVFAQfmY Also, Tom Petty does a live version of Oh Well on his new 4 disc live Anthology collection. I kind of like it. Finally, Lucy Wainwright Roche does a decent cover of Everywhere. How about a thread where we talk about who we would like to cover some Mac songs???? I'd love to hear ... Dolly Parton do That's Alright Patty Griffin do Storms Teddy Thompson do Love in Store Counting Crows do Save Me a Place Mary Chapin Carpenter do Honey Hi Heart do Smile at You OK, I'm off to hunt down Cyndi's YMLF!
