even as a huge defender of Azoff and ruthless business practices in music, you have to see the difference:
The Eagles replacing a member that died is not equal to Fleetwood Mac trying to metaphorically kill off one of their own and replace him, even if the same Azoff put together both chimeras. The Fleetwood Mac of 2018 is more similar to The Eagles getting rid of Don Felder then The Eagles on 2018.

so if true, when the reunion happened, maybe others in the band promised him that band first plus evolving is what they were willing to do? i wish he stopped being delusional as soon as he saw one of the members leaving the band altogether while another leaving FM in the dust to go resurrect her solo career.

While I don't know for sure, I assume many of the posters on this board initially consumed music by terrestrial radio. We listened to countdown shows, read printed music charts and measured songs popularity by their final chart position. A chart position is a snap shot of a song's popularity and promotion at a moment in time. It is not necessarily a measure of a song's enduring popularity or how a song may resonate with a new generation of music consumers. That final chart position also might not be indicative of the continuing royalty revenue a song might generate.
I jumped into the streaming numbers of Fleetwood Mac and found that many songs that were never singles or lower charting singles have had better long term popularity with music consumers than some of their better charting brethren. Consolidated streaming numbers were updated January 31, 2021. The Dreams phenomenon, which no doubt provided a significant boost to its streaming numbers, was in late September and October 2020. Many music streaming services end their year October 31. A large portion of that gain should be reflected in these numbers. Song Total Streaming Go Your Own Way 258,518,000 Dreams 188,229,000 Everywhere 154,221,000 Landslide 138,103,000 The Chain 121,974,000 Rhiannon 91,538,000 Never Goin Back Again 78,637,000 Little Lies 76,257,000 Don't Stop 60,889,000 Gypsy 50,655,000 Second Hand News 48,942,000 You Make Loving Fun 43,949,000 Songbird 41,966,000 Gold Dust Woman 33,655,000 Seven Wonders 33,087,000 Sara 24,872,000 Tusk 24,462,000 Big Love 24,454,000 Silver Springs 22,393,000 Oh Daddy 20,052,000 FYI Over My Head, Say Love Me & Hold Me were all between 10,000,000 and 17,000,000 streams. Highest Pre Rumours streaming song is Albatross at 23,000,000 followed by Black Magic Woman at 14,500,000. No other Pre-Rumours song exceeds 7,000,000 streams and most songs of those various incarnations are between 400,000 and 2,000,000 streams. Highest post Tango streaming songs were As Long as You Follow at 7,500,000, followed by Bleed to Love Her at 4,300,000. Maybe some numerical perspective of what songs from Fleetwood Mac the modern day music consumer connects with. Last edited by John Run; 02-09-2021 at 06:47 AM.. |

You are correct. I just found that notation. Sales data was updated at the end of 2017, but consolidated streaming was updated on 1/31/21. Thank you!

I'm shocked at NGBA, jbrowns. I thought people didn't know that song. And it's Chris' fav. Whoaaa!

I honestly think Rumours is one of those albums where every song on it is well known.

i'm more surprised about Big Love. i know that was a hit back in some european countries (stripped down version after the dance), but i don't recall it being much played or talked about in these parts. also surprised that the chain is not higher.
