Also, I don't know any music terms, so when you say "harmony", what do you mean? What would be a Fleetwood Mac example of harmony in a song?

Harmony is when two people sing together in the same key. Many different types exist, but here she is talking about how she sings the main melody and someone singing a little higher or lower than she is singing. A good example of this is the chorus in "Dreams" - where you have LB and CM singing the main parts and Stevie is singing what sounds like at least two higher (oh her voice in those days could soar!!

) and perhaps one lower part. The result is a stunning sound of three people singing at least six parts.
Harmony can also be people singing parts of a song in the same key but at slightly different times. The best example of this is the chorus of "Little Lies" the "tell me lies" and then "can't disguise."
I know this may not make sense reading about it. I suggest you find someone who plays the piano or guitar and have them show you if you do not understand.
