Default Fleetwood Mac songs you never tire of (Album Versions)

What songs do you never tire of when they come up on your Ipod or on a Mix CD in the car??

1. The Chain- This song is just amazing. I remember someone on here quoting it as "The Chain is my religion." This song IS Fleetwood Mac. Each member shows off their unique capabilities in this song IMO.

2. Gypsy- This is Fleetwood Mac magic. This song sounds so different to me than other Fleetwood Mac songs. All I can say is that it is pure magic.

3. You Make Lovin Fun - The melody on this song is just so great. Although, I would have liked them to keep Stevies original high harmonies. The guitar at the end is just phenomenal. I love how Linday plays it at the end.

4. Eyes of the World - I just love this song. It is one of Lindsey's best IMO. I love the added harmonies in the chorus by Stevie and Christine. Really rocks...love SYW tour version.

5. Never Goin Back Again - IMO, the album version is just incredible. I hate how he slows it down live. I LOVE the quick 2 minute verison on Rumours. Its such a catchy riff at that speed. That is Lindsey Buckingham fingerpicking at its best.

6. Isn't it Midnight - This song is so great because it is very different from many of Christines songs, IMO. I love the keyboards on the chorus and the chorus itself. I have loved this song ever since I heard it on the TITN video. The guitar solo at the end is one of Lindsey's best.

7. Affairs of the Heart - Kind of an oddball to throw in at the end, but this is one of the first FM songs I heard and I love it to this day. I think the keyboards make the song, but Stevie sounds very pretty. Great song!

So what are yours?

I'll second Gypsy & Isn't it Midnight! Just offhand.... Why, Landslide, Dreams, Beautiful Child, Honey Hi, Angel.

There was a time when I listened to nothing but BC and Why on repeat. The harmonies on Dreams never lose their magic, and Angel is just too upbeat to ignore.

Sara- without question the QUINTISENNTIAL Fleetwood Mac song and sound. It's all there in this tune.


Gypsy-same thing as above

Songbird- Christine McVie's crowning achievement in my opinion

Landslide- It applys to all of us in that no one ever gets younger

Gold Dust Woman- Always will be very special to me in that it was the very first exposure I ever had to Fleetwood Mac as a 6 year old boy, almost 30 years ago.

Sara (that's actually unfair because I never get tired of any version)

Go your own way ( actually I prefer the studio to the live versions)

amazingly: Rhiannon

Angel (even though I 'd kill to have one single live version of that song)
