I find something enjoyable and entertaining in all of Fleetwood Mac's videos... even "Paper Doll." I thought having scenes from past videos and concert clips, projected onto writhing bodies (which could be interpreted as Nicks and Buckingham), tambourines, and drum-heads, was a clever solution to not having a "working band" to film a new video.
"Everywhere" and "In The Back Of My Mind" are probably the lamest of all (if you don't count that haphazardly compiled European video for "Family Man," which is mostly made up of footage from "Seven Wonders"), but even they have their charms.
As for a favorite... definitely "Gypsy."
It's "ghostly, mystical, and romantic"... many of the things I love about Fleetwood Mac's "image."
