I really think they should have recorded a studio version of this song and included it on Mirage.

This song is just..... OOMPH. It's so Fleetwood Mac.

OMG thanks
I really love this song

And it should have been on Mirage as has been stated, I would have prefered it to a few of the songs that were put on there.

It would have fit very well on Mirage. Much better than some of the songs on there.

another song that is packed with emotion, great lyrics and great harmonies that just kinda got buried. that song alone has sigworthy and lifeworthy captions in bundles.

I've never heard anyone suggest this before, but what a great idea that would have been. It was kind of wasted on the live album. They should have held it for Mirage...it would have been a good fit.

If you download the Blue Lamp Sessions Jazmen just posted in the "Come and get it..." thread, you'll find an incredible piano demo of Fireflies.

Well, they did release (and remix) it as a single, along with The Farmer's Daughter single. Neither one of them busted up the charts. As I understand it, these were recorded in the middle of the Tusk tour. Perhaps if they included Fireflies in their latter set lists, it would have better established the song.
