When did Say You Love Me hit its peak? It was realeased in June ‘76…..but did it hit the charts straight away? Go Your Own Way was released in December, so there’s a big enough gap for an additional single. And it’s not as if the Fleetwood Mac album hit the heights of Rumours so there’s plenty of passive or non-fans who didn’t buy the album who would have bought a single. But if SYLM reached #11 long after its release then I can understand them wanting to just jump straight to the material on the next album. And I’m sure they’d have been excited by the prospect of the Rumours singles chances, no matter what they might say now.
