Unexpected FM

[ButterCookie]

Does anyone else ever randomly hear Fleetwood Mac, find records or CD's or see them on TV?

Today, I went record shopping and found two Stevie albums, TOSOTM and RAL, and the shop was playing Sara. It really brightened my day :D

[StreetAngel95]

i've told this story before, but on the opening night of the HANNAH MONTANA MOVIE, my friends and i went to Burger King before the show (at MIDNIGHT)

we were the only ones in the restaurant, and while i'm ordering i suddenly heard some VERYYY FAMILIAR LYRICS : "something in you brought out something in me, that i've never been since..."


I SCREAMED!!!!!:blob2: i freaked out! and my friends were like, "WTF? They just played Owl City and now they play THIS CRAP?!"

i didn't speak to them for a couple days....teehee!:sorry:

[thatgirlwasme]

I just heard the instrumental intro from "Bleed to Love Her" on the Today Show. I was really confused at first--it was one of those moments where I was trying to decided if I was making it up, or if it was really FM. A nice surprise over breakfast!

[jaycee]

Whle I was lining up at JB Hi-Fi once to buy some albums, the sound of "Second Hand News" came on over the speakers, promptly followed by "Dreams" while I was making the exchange - Rumours was being played! :D All I wanted to do was keep browsing the store, but I had to get to uni... :distress:

[aleuzzi]

Once heard the guitar parts for World Turning during a scene shift in a Tales of the Crypt episode.

[bluefox4000]

When I was buying new speakers for my computer, The song they played to test them out was I'm so afraid.......the album version:thumbsup:

Mick

[Sleepless-Child]

Today, at school, a guy played Big Love AND Go Insane, outside, on the guitar (we're in France, so noone knows who the f*ck is Lindsey Buckingham...). I think I'm in love!

[ButterCookie]

I love a man with good music taste!

I forgot to add onto the end of my post, about hearing Sara then finding the Stevie albums, I also passed a Shoe store called Bella Donna! :blob1:

[ThunderHappens]

I was in an antique shop last year, thumbing through a box of records and hoping for a Mac surprise or a Nicks fix. Sure enough...there was a near-perfect condition, complete copy of Tusk. While I continued browsing, holding it tight, Sara began to play over the store's sound system. How cool is that? :D

[Meowi]

Last night, I hear YMLF on the radio, The Dance version, to be exact.

[StreetAngel95]

I FRICKEN HEARD "CAROLINE" ON THE RADIO ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL TODAY! NO JOKE! THAT SONG IS SOOOOOOOOOO SEXY!!!!!

ahem....yeah, sorry

[bluefox4000]

Yesterday, no joke. My neighbor starts blasting the Ledge. The Ledge!!!!!! I
was dying:blob1:

That person should be your new best friend now.

[bluefox4000]

I'm gonna have him over and intruduce him to pre-rumours stuff

was dying:blob1:

Its not like the Ledge was one of the Mac's most popular song... :shocked:
Anyway, last week I went to my mother's friends house, who had another person over aswell. Turned out, she was a BIG Tusk fan :woohoo:

[PenguinHead]

I was in a Home Depot the other day and heard 'Love in Store."

[ButterCookie]

I just turned on the radio to listen to a Patti Smith interview and the presenter said 'we'll be back to the chain'

Lo and Behold, he played the bass snippet :D

[jaycee]

I FRICKEN HEARD "CAROLINE" ON THE RADIO ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL TODAY! NO JOKE! THAT SONG IS SOOOOOOOOOO SEXY!!!!!

ahem....yeah, sorry

Oh how I would've loved to have been you! That was one of the few songs that really stuck with me the first time I listened to TITN (they all do now, of course).

[StreetAngel95]

today on my way home from dance class, the classic rock station was doing a "Fleetwood Mac Power Hour" and chronologically played their hits. It was awesome! Hearing " Oh Well" and "Albatross" on the radio was such a treat for me!

You're just trying to make me jealous now, aren't you? Well you've succeeded, dear friend! :laugh:
On a serious note, I don't think I've ever heard "Oh Well" on the radio, and I haven't heard "Albatross" in its entirety on the radio since I visited New Zealand (Gold 104.3, a Melbourne station, had part of it on during an interview with Mick Fleetwood). :(

ohh, i'm sry! LOL yes it was AMAZING! I freaked out!:blob1:

[vivfox]

I don't think I've ever heard "Oh Well" on the radio :(

In the 1980's I used to hear Oh Well on the radio quite a bit. Often it would be the live version from FM Live 1980 which was cool.

[ButterCookie]

I've not watched TV properly in a LONG while, but I know that Marks & Spencer used to play Albatross on their 'It's not just food, it's M&S food' adverts.

[vivfox]

Talk To Me(I know it's not a FM song, but oh well) was playing at the grocery store while I was in the checkout line about an hour ago.

[tilthefirefades]

I was at a gas station in Charlotte this past weekend and heard "Save Me" :D

[Meowi]

I was trying to find Kate Bush signatures, and the website was called Fleetwood Mac for Sale!

Then I searched - Kate Bush Sightings.
One of the first images was the Rumours cover

[jaycee]

I thought I loved 1377 3MP before Sunday night - now I've come to realise just how brilliant a radio station it really is! :laugh: They played "Albatross"! :woohoo: (Albeit at 2:25am...) It was funny though, because I was semi-asleep, and I only began to notice it about half-way through the song! :distress:
(As a side, it also affirmed my recent realisation that when falling asleep your mind simply wanders into thoughts you're not fully aware of thinking about, before you stop thinking and enter a fully-blown dream. It's therefore little wonder that I'm never aware of the precise moment I fall asleep! Mind, this information may not be new to some people... :shrug:)

Dying might feel exactly like this.

[jaycee]

Dying might feel exactly like this.

Probably... except without the dream at the end...

[cristochango]

I just heard a version of Say you love me I dont think ive ever heard before...

It was just like the white album, except there was a lot of extra guitar in the background, like overdubbed?

It was on the radio.
can anyone help me out?

[chazlightyear]

My other half is working at a Club tonight and he's just texted me to tell me that Big Love has come on :eek: How jealous am i:mad:

[bluefox4000]

Oh I was in Atlantic City. In three different casinos they played The Mac over the sound system. One played Seven Wonders. Another played Gypsy. The last one Actually played Come.......Yea this last one shocked me.

[StreetAngel95]

RIGHT NOW (6:59 eastern time) on golTV the Spanish soccer channel, they're playing "Don't Stop" because of the championship or whatever.....my mom was born in Portugal and i speak Portuguese, so we act like total Europeans and we watch soccer...yeah. :blob1::blob1::blob1::blob1:

[amberlemegan]

Last week I was out looking for a dress for graduation and I was in the car with my mom and Second Hand News came on the local classic rock station and that made me so happy. Then to top off that happiness I find out its two for Tuesday and right after they played I Don't Want To Know. I never though I would hear that one on the radio. :)

I would have been glad if they played any FM song but this station always plays Dreams, Don't Stop, and Go Your Own Way. I love the songs, but I'm glad they played something different and unexpected off Rumours :]

IDWTK is always awesome!

[MissLadyLoki]

I've heard my fair share of Big Mac on the radio (it's typically famous stuff on these rock stations, but 99.1 PLR in Connecticut plays The Chain now and then, but they've always had a tendency to play cool, lesser-known songs from many bands), but when me and my friend sam went to eat dinner at a local steakhouse after we had seen Avatar together at around 9 PM, I heard Say You Love Me play.

[amberlemegan]

IDWTK is always awesome!

I know isn't it?? :)

[KenshiMaster16]

My local theater plays music while you wait in the lobby and buy snacks and things, when I went with some buddies from work to see A-Team a couple weeks back they went from playing classic 2Pac to Say You Will. It was a bit odd but made me smile.

[chelluversu]

I was watching Casino because I've never seen it. They played Go Your Own Way...I believe it was when Sam (DeNiro) found out Sharon Stone (can't remember her characters name) ran off with his daughter, and Sam was in his car with Nicky...I was watching it with my sister, and I sang it until I annoyed her lol

[thatgirlwasme]

I saw Tom Petty in Milwaukee Friday night and they played "Oh Well" in their set. I've heard recordings of them playing it before, but it was awesome to here it live!

[holidayroad]

This week, I heard 'Rhiannon', 'Sara', and 'Sentimental Lady' (Welch solo)!!

[louielouie2000]

I hear Fleetwood Mac in random places all the time... but this is my current fav:

I was floating nude in an inner tube on Lake Travis today, and heard "Gypsy" blasting from a nearby boat! :laugh:

I am so in love with this Lake and all the photos of it you have provided. I can't believe it is in Texas and not some Caribbean Island resort. Also, picturing you naked on an innertube floats my boat too.:)

I still have yet to go to Lake Travis. What is wrong with me?

[louielouie2000]

I grew up on Lake Travis... whenever you're back in town and wanna go, drop me a line! :thumbsup: Like Viv said, it's a little piece of the Caribbean in the middle of Texas!

[MissLadyLoki]

I gotta come out and say it: that lake looks seriously awesome. Here, we have the ocean, but it's not even blue and more of a nasty shade of green, and I think we have a lake somewhere (goes to show how much I go outside and experience nature :laugh:)

Yep...that was most likely the single version (45 mix, or whatever you wanna call it). They released it as a bonus track on the remastered 1975 Fleetwood Mac album.

[PenguinHead]

I recently took a temporary part-time job at a supermarket. The music source that plays in the store is riddled with Fleetwood Mac songs.

I've heard 'Dreams' once, but these Christine's songs are in heavy rotation:

Everywhere
Little Lies
Hold Me
Over My Head
Save Me

I see the appeal of her songs as elevator music -- universally pleasing and not too obtrusive. The term elevator music can seem derogatory. But Christine's songs are the best elevator music ever! Not just for elevators, supermarkets, doctor's offices, waiting rooms etc...but everywhere!

It's sooo funny you say that. My friend Scott won't listen to Christine songs because he says it reminds him of being at the dentist and getting drilled on! :laugh: Apparently his dentist likes to blast Tango and sing along to it while he's giving root canals. :laugh:

my mom was born in Portugal and i speak Portuguese

That's cool...my Mom was born and raised in Portugal as well...Lisboa...or was it Torres Vedras? Pretty sure it was Lisboa. I love going there, it's beautiful. Love the Algarve of course, but also Lisboa is exciting, and Sintra sure is unique!

I can see it right now...*while filling in a cavity* Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies!

[Hawkeye]

It's no longer unexpected but Bob's solo version of Sentimental Lady has been added into the nightly rotation of music where I work. So whenever I work at night I hear it along with either Stop Dragging My Heart Around or Tusk. Peacekeeper used to be in the morning rotation up until about 2 years ago. Paper Doll used to be in at night.

[holidayroad]

This may not really qualify for 'unexpected FM', but today I found the Triad book for 10 cents at a library sale!!. I read it once about 18 years ago and I am glad to own it!!

[Macfanforever]

Will at lunch today I had my radio on,The station that I listen does a lunch request show,I was about to turn on my Ipod to listen to Stevie/FM tunes.but acouples seconds before I turned on my ipod a guy called in to the station to have them play Sara ,that was nice to hear.The station was oldies WDRC 102.9 from Hartford.Dam I wish they play Stevie's solo tunes.They play everybody else.

Funny thing, I listen to CT radio myself (as you probably know, Long Island is about 20 miles away, across the Sound) and I can easily pick stations up. The rock stations there and 103.9 WRCN (a hard-to-pick-up Long Island rock station that I figured out the problem was rooted in te fact that it's boradcasted for further out east than me) like to play the Mac a lot, and they always seem to be played when i'm thinking about how a guy wronged me in some way.

One day recently, as I was driving around, listening to 99.1 WPLR (that's a very good New Haven rock station) thinking about how at this time last year, my now-former BF would have come over and zonked out watching TV on my couch, The Chain came on. Strange coincidence, huh?

[Artemis]

I was in the bank today, at an appointment, to make a new bank account so I had the correct one for my student accommodation form, when I heard Everywhere being played in like, the main office area. I was so distracted I totally zoned out what the person was saying to me xD

The bank is the last place I ever expected to hear Fleetwood Mac, I must admit.

[Amlyn]

Not exactly unexpected but...I was having dinner with a friend earlier and she told me she was listening to XM in the car and thought of me because "Fleetwood Whack" came on. She didn't really mean to say that, just came out wrong. But it was hysterical to hear that. Anyway, I asked her what song and she said something with lies in it...So I"m like, "oh, Little Lies".

When i left the restaurant and was driving home..guess what song came on...

Just wanted to share...made me laugh which was definitely needed after having a long week.

Bonus--I asked her today if she wants to go see Stevie with me next month in AC and she is on board!

[amberlemegan]

I was out to dinner with my family and Don't Stop came on in the restaurant :)

Well it really wasn't unexpected because I picked it out on the Jukebox thing they had :rolleyes:
I picked all 3 Fleetwood Mac songs they had hoping all 3 would play but they didn't. The other 2 were Second Hand News and Blue Letter. I really wanted Blue Letter to play though because I've never heard it before outside of listening to it on my ipod :(

[DoubtfulMiracle]

I flicked over to one of our local radio stations the other day and heard Think About It. I was more than slightly surprised. I did a double-take to make sure I hadn't put the CD or iPod on instead, but nope, regular ol' radio station.

Turns out though they weren't being completely random, but Bella Donna was the album of the day on Cover to Cover, a neat little show they do where they profile one particular album (the making of it etc. ). But at least for a fleeting moment I thought the world had become totally awesome. :D

[chazlightyear]

Bloody hell 'Oh Diane' has just been playing in the background on Coronation street!

[ButterCookie]

Some Pita van called Fleet-a-Pita just pulled up on The Simpsons playing Don't Stop :lol:

Ok you are across the little pond.I've notice WHCN plays alot of Stevie/FM from time to time,but I get sick of the new tunes mixed in. I have to try 103.9 WRCN ,but 104.1 probably interfere WRCN.WPLR is a awesome station to tune in too.

[MissLadyLoki]

104.1 must be the one mixing in with WRCN when I get closer to Stony Brook (yeah, I go to school there and i listen to the radio as I drive up, but I noticed many times how I'd be rocking out to something, and there'd be static and Taylor Swift trying to butt in).

Another good LI rock station is 102.3 WBAB. They play some newer stuff, but plenty of older tunes too. Now, if you want a quick and easy way to rip your hair out, listen to 106.1. It's WBLI, our top 40 station that'll overplay a sng so much that you'll want to personally strangle the artist responsible for recording that song lol.

[Sleepless-Child]

GUYYYS, Say you love me on a french radio right now :woohoo: ! That's unexpected, here !

[chazlightyear]

They played 'The Chain' twice on bbc1 tonight and it was nothing to do with formula 1!

[Sleepless-Child]

Just back home from a night out in our tiny town, where there's often music played, you know, on loudspeakers everywhere, and i heard a familiar solo. It was the one from Hold Me. HOLD ME ! Not Don't Stop, or Rhiannon, or whatever, but HOLD ME ! I almost cried :laugh:. If this Fleetwood Mac wave continues, i won't call it "unexpected" anymore.

A fellow Stonybrooker !! I went there from '68 - '72, things must be quite different now. Back in the day one of the major concert venues on the east coast was the Fillmore East, everyone who was anyone played there. At that time the Brook (as it was called) had a very well deserved reputation as a drug haven, and guess what ? Almost every artist who played at the Fillmore wound up playing Stony Brook during the week. I think the entire student activity fund was used to hire these acts, you could catch The Doors or The Byrds, Jefferson Airplane,The Who playing IN THE GYM or outside on the lawn !! Tickets were maybe $ 3.00 , it was incredible !

Having graduated in '72 I kinda lost track of goings on at Stony Brook does anyone know if FM or Stevie ever played there ?

These days, only some indie acts play Universtiy Cafe (which is all blocked off since they're building this stupid student center that's gonna open when i graduate) and either USG and SAB sponsored Brookfest (this year, it was such a bomb that the Press calledit Lamefest) and everyone goes to off campus clubs to party (those dorms, even suites, are too small to party in).

Sadly, neither FM nor Stevie would ever play there (too busy going to bigger venues, such as the Coliseum and the Garden), but dammit, I don't care if it's Lindsey solo, I wanna see the Mac play in SBU!

[ButterCookie]

I just heard Gypsy through the wall from next door. Unexpected because they only ever play drum and bass at 1.30am.

[MissLadyLoki]

I was at a Mets game last night (it was free, and the whole story is at Chit Chat) and, as i was thinking about how the game has basically turned into D'backs vs David Wright, they played the original album version of Big Love.

[kokoro]

I was at my local Wegmans a few weeks ago and heard Dreams on the radio, which wasn't especially strange. But today at the same store I heard Say You Will playing! I've never heard that on the radio before. As an added bonus, I heard You Make Loving Fun on the bus yesterday.

Chris' nose is practically in his pit, honey.

I was in a cafe with my friends when the owner played a deranged remix album consisting of all the songs from the greatest hits. It was obviously of his own creation and, needless to say, wasn't that great :/

I was in a cafe with my friends when the owner played a deranged remix album consisting of all the songs from the greatest hits. It was obviously of his own creation and, needless to say, wasn't that great :/

Oh snap, I didn't see that. I'm too busy with my mind in the gutter and seeing Chris get Tusked. See?

Oh yeah, and I believe Stevie was Photoshopped out of this pic, put against a grainy background, and told everyone it was a portrait (I guarantee you've seen it before). Anyways, as for my Unexpected FM, I heard Go Your Own Way on the radio at the precise moment I thought "Y'know, I need some FM" as I was stuck in this red light that takes forever.

[kokoro]

Chris' nose is practically in his pit, honey.

And Chris' face suggests that it's not so fresh, no matter what Lindsey thinks.

[Kena]

I heard Say You Will while I was shopping at TJ Maxx last night. Needless to say, it (yes, the song) talked me into buying that layered green skirt I've been stalking. :]

[Silver Springs]

I just heard Gypsy through the wall from next door. Unexpected because they only ever play drum and bass at 1.30am.

This is more about the signature than anything. Never have I longed to be a Penguin more than I do now.

I heard Sara being blasted out of a car passing the house, which was strange considering I recognised the car and again, they're victims of drum and base and dire hippity hop.

[Silver Springs]

I heard The Chain playing in a man's car on an episode of Casualty (English medical drama). Made the whole episode :D

[SortaSavageLike]

I heard You Make Loving Fun while scrubbing the inside of a toilet in ShopRite's men's bathroom yesterday.

And people wonder why I'm worn out on Rumours.

[vivfox]

In McDonald's this morning I heard Got A Hold On Me which I haven't heard in approx. 20 years and then they played Whenever I Call You Friend.

[HomerMcvie]

In McDonald's this morning I heard Got A Hold On Me which I haven't heard in approx. 20 years and then they played Whenever I Call You Friend.

I heard Got a Hold On Me, a couple of weeks ago, in a Goodwill store.

[ButterCookie]

Just watched "This is England '86" and was soo surprised to hear Man of the World at the end!

[MissLadyLoki]

I was in Stop and Shop (yes, it's a real supermarket, they just use the name for Family Guy) yesterday and, while this was Stevie solo, I heard Talk to Me.

[chazlightyear]

Was in the car doing the school run and Rhiannon came on radio 2 apparently requested by some 18 and 19 year olds working in a cafe,which cheered me up immensely followed by Blondie!

[TerraRhiannon]

The other day at my Grandmother's house YMLF came on the radio and I freaked out and tried to find the volume button on her ancient radio and I couldn't and I was flipping out and I finally found it, satisfied.

My Gram just looks at me and says, "Oh yeah, that's right, you like ...who are they? ..Fleetwood Mac? Are they still in business?"

I just looked at her.

[ButterCookie]

There's a little Charity Shop opposite my regular record store and the past 2 times I've been in, I've heard Sara and Say You Love Me :)

[bluefox4000]

At one of my school's talent shows......my friend surprised me by lip-syncing and playing air guitar to Tango in the Night. He was not really sinigng or playing but it was a blast:laugh:

Mick

[MissLadyLoki]

Over the summer, when I was in Florida and being driven to my hotel via towncar, the driver was listening to a rock station and Sara was on (I thought I recognized it by Mick's brushes beat, but the keyboatrds cinched it for me)

One day, as I was leaving school, I put on my preset for 103.9 WRCN (a Long Island classic rock station that's broadcasted from Riverhead and often gets mixed up with some variety station from the city around my area, but gets stronger as you go further out) and I got the variety station playing Adam Lambert. When I back up a bit, it went back to WRCN and, lo and behold, they were playing The Chain.

[sjpdg]

About 2 weeks ago, the TV show "Chuck" had a band doing a cover of "Second Hand News". I have no idea who the band was but it sounded pretty good.

[elle]

Second Hand News is played pretty regularly as a background at one point or another during MSNBC's Morning Joe. :cool:

[elle]

Heard Thrown Down played in Home Depot few weeks ago.

[UndoingTheLaces]

I was in Rite Aid today buying a sympathy card for my Godmother because of the passing of my Godfather and I had to stop because No Questions Asked came on. I know, a lot of people hate that song but I love it. And it was way too cheerful a song to be picking out a sympathy card to. But I was struck by how odd a song to put on a drug store mix CD. It was so random.

[TerraRhiannon]

My alarm is set to the radio.

Anyway, this morning I was awaken to the sound of Lindsey singing 'Go Your Own Way' in my ear. I was thrilled. It was the only morning I didn't hit snooze. I was like, "All right, talk about literally starting your day off on the RIGHT foot.":thumbsup:

[bluefox4000]

Heard come in Best Buy yesterday. I always get shocked when I hear that one anywhere. Because it just does not seem like like one for a store.

Mick

[DefDumbandBlond]

Forgot to post that last week while on vacation I went in the Macy's there and Say You Will came on their radio. Definitely didn't expect that. :D

[vivfox]

Did all the customers run screaming from the building?

[night-rider]

Before I went to college, I had a paper route and I used to listen to the radio while delivering. The radio station I frequently listened to often played Gold Dust Woman and Sara, and I'd always freak out and crank the volume. At 4 in the morning. :)

As for recently, my roommate and I were walking at night, and an outdoor restaurant was playing Go Your Own Way. My ears perked up like a dog's and my roommate laughed at me. :P

[MissLadyLoki]

Last weekend, I was at a farmstand way out on the North Fork and the radio there played Go Your Own Way.

[Kena]

Last weekend, I was at a farmstand way out on the North Fork and the radio there played Go Your Own Way.

Heard Tusk on XM Radio (what channel? heck if I know) on the way to work this morning. The song ended right as I was pulling into my parking spot. It made me happy.

[MacShadowsBall]

I hardly ever hear FM played anywhere down here in Tennessee. Its all country music 'round here! :mad:

[MissLadyLoki]

I hardly ever hear FM played anywhere down here in Tennessee. Its all country music 'round here! :mad:

Do you have any rock stations down there? I know the ones up here (Long Island, New York City, Connecticut) play 'em all the time. If you want, you could listen online to these guys, who love the Mac: http://www.mainstreamnetwork.com/listen/player.asp?station=wrcn-fm&

EDIT: And give these guys a spin too. They like playing Stevie too: http://streaming.wplr.com/_players/coxradio/index.php?callsign=WPLRFM

[MacShadowsBall]

There is 1 "classic rock" station Power 92.3 FM and I think 1 current rock station. Everything else is either country, gospel, or talk. I don't think we even have a "Top 40" station!:mad:

I'll check those links when I get home from work at 5.

That's odd you don't have a pop station. round here, it's 106.1 BLI and it's signal is so strong that, unless it's a car radio, all you're gonna hear is it. And on top of it all, it overplays songs to the point where, if a song is popular, you'll probably be hearing it once every hour. I kid you not.

The country stations here (104.1 and 106 point something) are the exact same way...except they bleed into each other. Haven't really checked out the radio stations recently for format changes. I forget we do have a rap station 95.7.

The place I eat at a lot keeps the radio on 104.1. So everyday I get to hear some song, I think its by Sugarland...something about "ain't no rhyme or reason...yada yada yada!! :mad:

Hopefully someday I'll run across an "unexpected FM song" :rolleyes:

[AliceLover]

I went out to dinner with a group of friends last night for a 21st birthday party. We were at a bar/restaurant. In the bar area, they were playing Rhiannon from the Live CD. It was so killer, I couldn't believe it.

[elle]

Don't Stop was used to fade out the segment on Morning Joe today (again)... seems they really like to use FM songs with mostly Lindsey singing on that show.

[Silver Springs]

Just now on the end credits of Come Dine With Me they played Don't Stop.

[TerraRhiannon]

This has probably been mentioned on here somewhere, but last night I was watching Grown Ups with some friends and Monday Morning starts playing during one of the scenes and I freaked out I was right happy. :D My friends didn't have much to say about that one. I talked about it for like an hour.

[Sahara]

I met up with the lovely GypsyNikita on Wednesday and heard Everywhere on the radio on the bus on my way home!

The Chain base riff is playing in the background of Children In Need.

[skcin]

I hear lots of SYW material in grocery stores, shoe stores, the mall. Don't necessarily think that's a good thing. :(

Could be much worse. In a hotel I stayed in in Nashville, they had "muzac-ed" Billy Joel and were playing the music in elevators.

[MissLadyLoki]

Last night, when I was in the American Eagle store in Times Square (I swear, it looked like daylight outside with those ads) killing time before I walked over to the theater I was gonna see Memphis in (excellent show BTW, that black girl's voice was phenomenal), I swore I heard Sara in there, or maybe I was imagining things :shrug:

[MissLadyLoki]

Got one from right now: over in the kitchen, my mom is watching one fo those dumb crime shows she's always watching (I think it was Cold Case Files, but I do enjoy 2 of 'em, namely NCIS and Psych) and Go Your Own Way was playing on the background in a flashback scene.

[Dodfather]

This one is SO random! I was out with friends for dinner in a pub here in Aberdeen, Scotland last weekend and Talk To Me was played! I don't know if you would know how very strange this is unless you're a UK based fan but Stevie's solo career gets NO attention over here at all, other than Edge of Seventeen, Rooms On Fire and (at a push) Stand Back. So to hear any solo track, not to mention one that I bet few non-Ledgies in the UK could name, is just bizarre! It was great though.

[holidayroad]

I heard 'Gypsy' at CVS yesterday!

[tilthefirefades]

Where I work you are sure to hear GDW at least once every day. Some days I even hear it 3 times in one shift! However, the other day I heard Big Love and Seven Wonders back to back :D

[chelluversu]

I was watching Irresistable (with Susan Saradon, Emily Blunt, and Sam Neilson), and during the party scene they played Little Lies. The only thing was it wasn't fleetwood mac singing it.

[MacShadowsBall]

On the Tonight Show during the commercial breaks, the band plays some songs. Well last night as they headed to commercial, I heard "Loving you isn't the right thing to do..." It figures that my first unexpected FM is a Lindsey song! :rolleyes:

[MacShadowsBall]

Yesterday I was getting a sandwich at Subway, when faintly over the speakers I heard "Hold Me". Not my favorite song, but still nice to her some Mac while out and about! :nod:

[Artemis]

I was in TGI Fridays today with my mum, and they played Black Magic Woman. Very cool, and weird, to hear a pre-Buckingham-Nicks Fleetwood Mac song whilst out and about.

[kenzo]

It was actually Fleetwood Mac and not the Santana cover? That is rare.

[TerraRhiannon]

Today I heard on the radio ...they said
"Playing all of Steve Miller's Greatest Hits, and Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits....they cranked out the album Rumours in the 70's, giving us one of the best selling albums of all time. EVERY SONG WAS A MASTERPIECE."
& yes they did say it as loud as I typed it. :laugh:
It made me smile, there's something special about hearing your favorite songs on the radio, you can put them on any old time on your iPod or music Library, but hearing them on the radio is different, more unexpected of course. :thumbsup:

[Sahara]

I found a book on the history of the electric guitar in a bookshop last week. I flicked to the Turner page and found a full page Unleashed photo of Lindsey playing his Model 1! :)

[bluefox4000]

I had a dream last night that randomly featured Silver Heels. Yea I don't know either:shrug:

Mick

[cristochango]

Never Going Back Again on the radio today :)

[LiamMcConville]

"dreams" within the first half hour of "Eat, Pray, Love". :shrug:

[Artemis]

Do the BBC own Fleetwood Mac, or does Christine McVie have dirt on an executive? Watching the most annoying people of 2010, and so far, I've heard Little Lies, and oddly enough, Save Me in the background. Quite surprising to hear Save Me. :laugh:

Ahhh..I too hit up the Bath & Body Works sale today! Exotic Coconut for me as well. When i walked back out into the mall Hold Me was piping in over the speakers. Just wasn't expecting that, but I surely enjoyed it and it got me down to the Body Shop where i bought more stuff.

That sale was magnificent!! You can't beat $3 body wash, because imo, B&BW is the best out there.

I know! I live for this sale this time of year every year. I stock up! I love the Bigelow stuff so I hope they drag that out soon.

Although I have to admit, Body Shop had the poofy sponge things for $1! That's unheard of, especially in that store. I used to work there..they never have anything under $5. But back to the BBW sale, I can't wait for the next round of sales. Bring on the 75% off!

THAT is cool. :thumbsup:

[Silver Springs]

Just heard The Chain on Come Dine With Me. This songs gets everywhere here. It's such a Whore :p

[MissLadyLoki]

Not really unexpected, but I was just on Skype with a friend who told me about someone who went to Best Buy and asked for a Mac album by the name of Tangled Up in You

After getting my haircut Monday, I heard "Everywhere" in the mall.

And caught the last minute or so of the "Hold Me" video on VH1 classics early Friday morning.

[michelej1]

In airport right now they are playing Say You Will.

I recognized Stevie's voice, but with all the noise, I had no idea what song it was, until we got to the guitar solo.

Man, I love SYW, but when I'm out in public, when I hear FM songs (even the ones I don't like) I am so thrilled with them. I mean there are songs I would never play at home or in my car that just make me feel so warm and happy when coming over the public speakers.

Michele

[ButterCookie]

Went for a family meal and heard The Chain :thumbsup:

[cristochango]

I think the absolute best thing about unexpected Mac is the fact that when you hear Fleetwood in public, everyone else HAS to listen to it too :D :D

[Meowi]

Yes Yes Yes!
I smirk when I realize that.

[TerraRhiannon]

Every day I'm at my Grandmother's house, (about 2x a week) I ALWAYS hear a Fleetwood Mac song on the radio there. Like just today I heard Rhiannon & the White album version of Landslide, which I haven't heard for a while. It is the best station, honestly all they played for the 6 hours I was there was Tom Petty, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Men With Hats, Def Leppard and Abba. :blob2:

[vivfox]

Men With Hats


Never heard of 'em. What's their most famous song?

[TerraRhiannon]

I thought men without hats sang Land Down Under, until I went to YouTube to find it for you and found out it is actually sang by Men At Work. Gah, stupid 80's bands and their names. I perfer the literal video of the Safety Dance myself. Had me in tears.

[pattyfan]

At the gym some weeks ago I came out of the shower and heard Destiny Rules. I've never heard that anywhere except when I listen to SYW. The funny thing was that they followed it with a 70's disco song. It must have been some satellite radio station :)

Kevin

[astro-addy]

I was in a gay bar in Dublin on Thursday night and the 1997 version of I'm so Afraid was playing. How odd is that?

[ButterCookie]

Just heard Holiday Road on a Teletext Holidays advert!

[Phoenixgypsy]

I heard "Say you Will" while walking through a mall in Phoenix!

[Silver Springs]

Holiday Road was just on an advert for Teletext Holidays on Television. Holy ****. That has never happened before. Nicely nicely!

Edit:

Just heard Holiday Road on a Teletext Holidays advert!

Haha! Me too! The world's gone barmy! I have never heard his solo work appreciated before. Wow.

[tilthefirefades]

Heard Little Lies, Seven Wonders, and Landslide from The Dance at work today :blob2::blob2:

[MacShadowsBall]

I was at Big Lots this morning and heard a familiar voice...Stevie! OMG Its "Gypsy" My fave!!!!!!!:blob2: :] :blob1:

[MissLadyLoki]

The other day, I was thinking to myself "Y'know, I'd love to hear a Stevie song right now" and lo and behold, Stand Back starts playing on one of the T rock stations I listen to

[Sleepless-Child]

I'm listening to Beauty and the Beast from The Soundstage Sessions, on a french radio. Totally random...and overwhelming. And noone gives a damn.

[amberlemegan]

I was in CVS the other day and Say You Will came on. It took me a second to realize it because it was so low. Then I went to take my baby brothers to the car and when my dad came out he said the played Don't Stop after that.

The other day I heard "Dreams" and "Don't Stop" on the 70's Music Choice channel.

[WildHearted]

I got a text yesterday morning from my friend saying "I'm at McDonald's and they're playing a Stevie Nicks song!"

I asked what song it was, but she didn't know, she said just recognized the voice and that she thinks I put it on a CD for her once. So it may have been one of Stevie's FM songs.

[cristochango]

I just heard Go Your Own Way off the Live album :D

[MissLadyLoki]

Yesterday, I was in Eddie Bauer at the mall, trying on some sunglasses and I hear Monday Morning get played. Who knew the Mac and making the decision to start wearing sunglasses that the lens won't pop out of went together so well? :lol:

[SuperFleetwood]

i was at the barnes and nobles once and they played Sisters of the moon and i need to know!

[MissLadyLoki]

Seriously? Sisters of the moon?

I'm with Chris: SOTM, seriously? The only thing I noticed in B&N the other day was that they're carrying less and less books, and that my decision to buy a Kindle over a Nook was a very wise one indeed (as in I dunno how much longer B&N is gonna be around since Borders just filed for chapter 11)

[SuperFleetwood]

i had my flip, i should have recorded it! i swear..

[Mac_Man_Dan]

i once heard Sara played in our local bus station last year, mind you, i didnt know the song very well then and i was slightly hungover when i heard it, yet from what i remember, it was pleasant enough at the time:)

[MacShadowsBall]

A conversation between me and my mother...

Mother: Hey son, Power 92 just played 2 Stevie Nicks songs, back to back.

Me: Oh really? What did they play?

Mother: "Just Like the White Winged Dove" and "Thunder only happens when its raining'.

Me: Oh you mean Stevie Nicks "Edge of Seventeen" and Fleetwood Mac "Dreams"

Mother: Yeah I guess, what do you want for dinner? :)

[MacShadowsBall]

Although not Fleetwood Mac, I did hear Stevie's "Leather and Lace" while shopping today. It came on after a Debbie Gibson song.

Have you had any Unexpected Fleetwood Mac lately?

[jcalzaretta]

I was waiting for my flight home from Vegas last night and Magnet and Steel. The minute it got to the duet part, the announcements came on so I was visibly pissed! Two songs later, I got another treat - my favorite Bob Welsh song with FM - Sentimental Lady.

....you are here and warm, and I could look away and you'd be gone....

[WildHearted]

I was flipping radio stations the other day and heard Edge of Seventeen, but initially skipped over it because for some reason I thought it was a CD or something I had in there lol... then I realized it was the radio and turned it back to listen haha.

[cristochango]

On Saturday I was going in for my first day on my new job, and while I was making Pizza, Secret Love came on throughout the entire shop. Made my day :)

[macpai]

I was watching some old "General Hospital" stuff on "YouTube," when "Caroline" was played in the background. Very cool.

[MacShadowsBall]

Today I was listening to the oldies station here and the DJ before going to comerical said "Coming up Fleetwood Mac" Yeah...probably a Rumours album song maybe Don't Stop or Go Your Own Way...no no no it's "Big Love":eek:

one of my least favorite FM songs...

[kick.inside]

This isn't randomly hearing them somewhere, but I guess it works -
So has anyone seen Life As A House? It's my favorite movie now, but when I first watched it, I actually squealed out loud at one point (I get excited easily) because Mary Steenburgen's character was wearing a Fleetwood Mac shirt. A really cool baseball tee with the penguin and everything.
Mary Steenburgen is my favorite actress so that added to the excitement...
Eh. I tried to contribute.

[kick.inside]

Oh wait I just thought of one -
Every Sunday afternoon on one of our local classic rock/oldies stations, they dedicate the whole afternoon to a "legendary artist" or however they term it. They don't play solely that artist - they just play them a lot more (like 4-5 songs an hour for about 3 hours).
A few weeks ago I was getting ready to go somewhere and as I turned on the radio before I showered, I discovered they were doing FM for their afternoon legend thing.
I was very excited and that shower ended up being like an hour and a half long (lots of singing :D).

The other day I was into Wal-Mart and "Hold Me" started playing while I was at the checkout & I desperately had to contain myself from bursting out singing & screaming "THIS IS MY FAVORITE BAND KJSAOIDJOIFEWMKF."

....a couple weeks ago I was at the same place & 'Sara' was playing. They have a pretty decent playlist going on. :nod:

Ok, so this isn't exactly Fleetwood Mac, but I just had to share it because I was so shocked! I was laying out by the lake yesterday with my little radio, and Gold by John Stewart came one the radio!!! :eek: :]

Well that's definitely random.

Hmmm a few weeks ago I was driving through town with my friend and the truck in the lane next to us was playing The Dance version of Rhiannon. I seriously turned off my radio and rolled my windows down so I could hear it better :lol:

We later went to Target and I considered buying their Greatest Hits album but decided not to. Right after that we went to Arby's and while we were sitting down to eat Go Your Own Way came on. I took it as a sign that I should have bought the cd!

[kick.inside]

^ Arby's likes Fleetwood Mac! I spent the day shopping with my sister yesterday. We went to Arby's for lunch and Gold Dust Woman was playing. I started singing along - rather loudly - right then and there. Mainly just to embarrass my sister. :laugh:
I was at a restaurant last week too, and they were playing Go Your Own Way. I hardly ever go out to eat, and now it seems that whenever I do, they're playing Fleetwood Mac. I can live with that.

Haha that is too funny :lol:

The guy I was sat next to on the train was listening to Second Hand News, and I'm pretty sure I heard Edge of Seventeen, too. I was more freaked by the fact I recognized them that well :laugh:

[Fiver]

Heard Dreams at my eye doctor's office today. Man, I love that drum intro.

[MacShadowsBall]

Yesterday while having lunch at my normal place that plays only country music:eek:, they had it on the oldies station and I heard "Tusk!"

[holidayroad]

I heard 'Little Lies' and 'Don't Stop' on the radio today.

[McTrouble]

I heard 'Little Lies' and 'Don't Stop' on the radio today.

My local radio station, BBC Radio Lancashire, LOVE Fleetwood Mac and are always playing these two tracks plus many other Mac songs.

So much so, they are becoming EXPECTED now rather than unexpected :laugh::blob1:

[MacShadowsBall]

Friday on the local oldies station, I heard "Rhiannon". :)

[Kena]

*bump* Booty bump.


I was in Bath and Body works last night and "hypnotized" was playing. Such a suprise (one- that I knew it was old Fleetwood Mac & two- that they were playing it).

[kaitsy]

i was leaving my last final exam a couple weeks ago and the sun was finally shining and it was the best feeling just to finally be done for the semester. i put my headphones in my phone and put the radio on because i had forgot my ipod - second hand news was playing and it's the first time i heard them on the radio, ever, because i just never hear a radio and it was the greatest day.

[Artemis]

I was just at a really fancy pub, having a meal with my family a few hours ago, and they played I'm So Afraid from The Dance and then Rhiannon from the White Album a few songs later. Snazzy pub :D

[MacShadowsBall]

A few days ago I heard "Tusk" on the oldies radio station. I've heard Big Love and Tusk several times on this station.

[Sleepless-Child]

An entire radio show about the great story of Stevie Nicks, last night. Yes, that was unexpected !! :thumbsup:

http://www.rtl.fr/emission/saga/ecouter/saga-du-05-juin-2011-7692460797 (if anyone understands french...the show started with Sometimes it's a bitch. How weird.).

[WildHearted]

I was at Zaxby's when I heard the chorus to GDW and I got confused and thought my phone was ringing, as that's my ringtone... but it was just playing on the radio haha.

[caroline79]

Is anybody here a fan of the show Charmed?

I was watching the episode "Charmed Again" and the song played after the credits was I Miss You from TISL. I had never heard the song before so I almost didn't catch it. I guess it wasn't really "unexpected" I just thought it was funny that I've seen that episode so many times before and never realized that was a Stevie song.

[jcalzaretta]

Last weekend I was grabbing coffee at Seattle's Best Coffee (in Seattle). Monday Morning was playing. Then I was in a Panera in Bloomington, IL to grab a quick lunch before a board meeting. Say You Will was on. Two days later, I went into the grocery store before the family picnic and Thrown Down was on.

It was crazy. It was like they were EVERYWHERE.

[cristochango]

I was driving around today. And Sara was on the radio. Changed the channel after it was over, and Tusk was blaring. I was so happy :)

[michelej1]

I walked into an office to sign a contract Friday and the guitar solo at the end of Gypsy was playing. It felt like an omen. A message from destiny exclusively for me, because no one else ever listens to FM right?:laugh:

So this past Saturday on the radio they were doing a top 20 countdown focusing on the Summer of 1977. Of course they mentioned Fleetwood Mac.

"Dreams" was number 3. The Emotions "Best of My Love" got #2 while Andy Gibb's "I Just Want to Be Your Everything" was the #1 song of the summer of '77 countdown.

Didn't want to start a new thread or anything, either!

Well, did you "expect" them to be doing a Summer of 1977 countdown? If not, it is somewhat unexpected ;)
As I was driving to my sisters to order LB tickets, "Dreams" came on the radio.

Unexpected? Ehh a little.
Ironic? Yes.
A sign from God that I was meant to get those tickets? Definitely :laugh:

Usually every Saturday night this station does a countdown type show. I guess its a nationally syndicated type program. But yeah the actual theme for that night was unexpected! :nod:

[jcalzaretta]

I am in Vegas this weekend. Friday morning at breakfast at the Hard Rock, Say You Love Me came on. People in the restaurant started singing, which makes sense. It is a great tune to sing to and sounded quite great.

Saturday night at O'Sheas on the strip, they played Think About Me.

Sunday morning, turned on tv to the classic music. They were playing Woman of a 1000 Years.

Three days - three FM all unexpected. Fantastic.

[Phoenixgypsy]

I heard a guitar only version of "Never Going Back Again" while swimming at the Sheraton Wild Horse Pass in Chandler, AZ!! Great guitarist...he also covered Pink Floyd, Led and other 70s classics.

[caroline79]

Today in the car, as soon as I finished saying "Why does the radio hate Fleetwood Mac?!" I changed the station and Think About Me was on :) I've never heard it on the radio before. Instantely put me in a good mood!

[WildHearted]

Zaxby's loves Fleetwood Mac. I was in there this weekend for the first time since I heard GDW, and I'm eating my chicken when all of a sudden I hear a familiar sort of wail and realized Gypsy was playing.

[caroline79]

Most unexpected FM/Stevie ever!

I was watching my brother play GTA IV (the game where you basically drive around, steal cars and murder people), I don't see the appeal :confused: Anyways, he was in a car changing the radio stations...and Edge of Seventeen was on! It seemed so out of place :laugh:

[MacShadowsBall]

So while I was watching the Today show on NBC last week, during a dog segment they played like 10 seconds of "Don't Stop"! :shrug:

[ButterCookie]

It's 12.32am here and I'm sat making a video of myself talking and You Make Loving Fun just came on Vintage TV. With Video!! Great Christine fuelled excitement.

[ButterCookie]

Peacekeeper just came on the radio!

[Amlyn]

Just before i was channel surfing and decided to see what the VH1 special was and low and behold.....FM Behind the Music Remastered. Of course I just finished watching it.....again....sidenote...i think my favorite updated quote is still Lindsey saying, " What is she going to sing, Christine McVie songs? She certainly isn't going to sing Sheryl Crow songs." Hehe....tell us how you really feel Lindsey. :)

And I was in Trader Joe's the other day (Trader Joe's is a specialty grocery store in a good chunk of the US) and Soul Drifter came on. I was shocked to say the least. And it was funny cause when i walked in I thought to myself I wonder if I'll ever hear anything FM or FM related in here.

[WildHearted]

Today at our neighborhood pool they were having a huge fourth of July party, and they played Stevie's entire CD. My mom called to tell me. I'm assuming it was In Your Dreams but I don't know for sure because I wasn't there and my mom didn't know haha.

[caroline79]

Peacekeeper just came on the radio!

WOW! I need to start listening to the radio more.

[McTrouble]

WOW! I need to start listening to the radio more.

I love my local radio station because they love Fleetwood Mac - they seem to play 2 or 3 Mac songs per day so it's not exactly unexpected FM for me, I expect it now!!! :laugh:

I rarely hear FM on the radio...maybe I'm just listening to the wrong stations. But I finally found the thing that plugs into my car so I can play music from my phone (yeah I don't know what it's called), so now I can listen to them anywhere I go! But not too loud because then I get in trouble with the police :laugh:

[MacShadowsBall]

So today I'm getting my haircut and what song comes on..........................................
....
....

Gypsy!!!! I freakin' nearly jumped outta my chair, which isn't a recommended thing to do while somebody has scissors and clippers over your head.

...but that's not all....

when I was heading back to my chair after getting my hair washed, I heard - loving you isn't the right thing to do... it was some sorta club/remix of "Go Your Own Way"!

Isn't that strange. Two Fleetwood Mac within 15 minutes at the same place! :laugh:

[bluefox4000]

It's not FM but I heard Moonlight at Applebee's.

Mick

[nailatixela]

At work, I heard Rhiannon and then Think About Me one after another! :D Really awesome to hear Think About Me especially.

[MacShadowsBall]

Just heard "Big Love" on Vh1 Classics

SOCKS OF DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!

I often hear Gypsy when I'm in retail stores.

[McTrouble]

I often hear Gypsy when I'm in retail stores.

My local Marks & Spencer store is always playing FM's greatest hits - I linger a long time!

[michelej1]

Didn't hear FM, but I heard Joe Simon's Drowning in the Sea of Love while waiting for my lunch order and aside from the obvious link to Sara, I noticed the lyrics are "been down one time and I've been down two times," which brought NGBA to mind as well.

Michele

[bangdrum]

Just heard Gypsy in CVS. I hear Say You Love Me in department stores fairly often.
