question about the Hold Me vid
 

i saw the video for Hold Me the first time yesterday, and first of all id like to say that stevie looks stunning in it. But is there any particular reason why Lyndsey isnt in it? There's a guy in it wearing the outfit from the Mirage concert but u never actually see his face so i can only assume it was a body double. :confused:

Lindsey is in the video. All 5 band members are in it.

They even get really close up to Lindsey....?

Um...
 

I saw "Hold Me" for the first time yesterday also, along with every other Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks video -- I was so blown away...but I recall Lindsey being in the video, quite a bit. Come on gold dust, even I saw him and that is because I was almost knocked unconscious by the "Every Day" video.

That is Lindsey.......

He is VERY much there. That video is the one that hooked me into the band. I still remember seeing it at my freind's house back in 82. Stevie did look stunning, didn't she?

You have to see the 'Pop Up Video' of it!
 

A couple of years ago, during the VH1 'Pop Up Video' series, they did a real funny one on Hold Me. I do not remember all of the tid bits but the funniest part was how they do the part with Lindsey throwing the guitar into the mirage. On the first take they show Lindsey throwing the guitar into what was a piece of glass and his guitar bounces back at him and he has to jump out of the way.

Lindsey and Christine are in that vid the most since they both sing the song.

The guy in the hat is Lindsey.

My fav. quote about that video is SN saying something like "of course we are in the 100 degree 8:00 a.m. heat in the Mojave (sp?) desert and my job is, of course, to lie on a chaise lounge and look cool!!!!!" :laugh:

Cool video.

That was sooo funny! I remember watching that show and busting out laughing at Lindsey and Stevie's comments about the making of that video.

And yes Lindsey is in that video...he is definitly HOT HOT HOT in that video. I loooooove the Mirage era look. ;)

This was the very first video that I saw of theirs back in 1982 and that is where my love affair with the Mac began. This is my favorite video of theirs. Lindsey is wearing the cream colored hat, the white shirt and slacks and the saddle shoes. He walks through the desert and has the paint brush in his hand but walks away from the canvas. He also breaks the glass wall with his guitar. This was suppose to be a continual idea throughout the video but due to cost and difficulty shipping the glass in and in the pop up video there was a difficulty breaking the glass the first time.
Stevie is gorgeous on her chaise lounge under the beating sun and then she paints herself. Then walks on the sand cliff with her painting in those famous platforms. She is also the figure all in black in the beginning and in the mirror shards with the black hat and cane, she stated it was so hot being in that outfit as temps were around 102. Mick and John are goofy sliding in the sand into a guitar pit. Christine looks so cool and poised in her little room of paintings with her telescope. She wears a white flowing dress and dangling earrings. Notice the horse she walks away with has dayglo green spots on his backside.
Definitely a classic video.

Christine said that her parts were filmed in a cooler studio because when her turn came in the desert, a sandstorm blew through and covered everybody from head to toe (or head to foot, as she says in her British way:) ).
In the same interview she said that they used Fender guitar rejects in the pits, and some of them were never returned to Fender. (Bet Mick hocked 'em.)
Stevie looks amazingly hot/beautiful, but a friend watching with me said she looks like a porn star in all the make-up. For what it's worth, this was a female friend. Sour grapes, or perhaps just an expert on porn style, I suppose. (We're not friends anymore.)

I don't blame you :mad:

She does, however, look so good, I could see how someone might confuse the chiffon covered sex appeal for a rawer element :laugh:

Stevie is dressed like Magritte, correct?

Hi Jake I know I heard that the paintings in the video behind Christine were Maugritte inspired and one does have a black hat on so it could be that is what Stevie is meant to be portraying. I never thought of it, thanks for mentioning that.
