The FM Game: If I never hear this song again it will be too soon

These are songs by Fleetwood Mac that you like or that you love but you are simply burnt out on hearing them.

Don't Stop
Go Your Own Way

Don't Stop. Don't Stop. Don't Stop.

I need to be in a very particular mood to want to listen to that song, otherwise I just can't handle it. Don't get me wrong, it's a great song... it just makes me get violent.

Definitely Don't Stop.

Same two as elle chose - Dreams and Rhiannon

Dreams.

I will never understand why this is the ONLY FM song (other than the occasional EO17) they will EVER play on the radio...

Actually, throw in Landslide too. The Dance version, of course.

Don't Stop.
Sara.
And maybe Landslide? Stevie said it herself, it's all the TV exec's want her to sing.
My mum ruined Sara for my by singing 'Sara, sara, sara.' over and over and over again in such an off key voice I had to resort to earplugs.

Hmm..

I am definitely sick of Rhiannon in every incarnation - live, demo, album, single - they're all tiresome to my ears. I will turn off the radio, skip the track, change the channel, go get a beer - anything to avoid hearing it one more time.

I think that's really the only one I can't endure, although Sara is getting there. Very close. Just thinking about it makes me want to play something loud, male and British to ensure I don't have Sara stuck in my head.

Because it was the only N.1
so the question is why this was the only Number 1 FM song?? That's what I don't get

As I recall, radio's playlists aren't exclusively airing only number one songs. While it's surprising that Fleetwood Mac hasn't charted any other number one songs, so what? Their songs are a far more durable/memorable than many long forgotten number one songs. And consider that many of their album tracks that weren't ever singles are staples on radio and in stores, doctors' offices and supermarkets everywhere! lol

i'm not sure i understand what you all are talking about. Second Hand News is played constantly on both classic rock stations and as background music on tv shows and it was never even a single or charted anywhere.

I think we have played this long ago.

To me it's always temporary. There are periods when I get sick of Dreams, Silver Springs, Little Lies, so I choose not to hear them for 3 or 4 months, and then I enjoyed them a lot.

I even try not to listen Fleetwood Mac, but no 3 or 4 months, just 2 or 3 weeks and then I really enjoy them

What!!! I can't go two days without Fleetwood Mac. I'm still quite early in my love(addiction) of them, so perhaps that colors my judgement.

Don't Stop (please do--I've hated it since Clinton campaigned and it was playing endlessly on the compaign trail)
Dreams (there is just nothing that interests me in this anymore...no nuance, nothing)
Landslide (as someone said, it's a great song. A song that was one of my favorites and still is, if I'm in the right mood. But, I'd just rather hear something else and have a chance to miss it! Can't do that if it never goes away)
I'm So Afraid...unless I'm right by Lindsey's feet--then, it's kind of mesmerizing and...even if I'm in the line of fire to get kicked by those ratty old shoes.
Big Love...I just have had enough of that house of the hill. I know it means a lot to him but...I just don't love it.

I'm probably the odd one here.I never get tired of FM/Stevie/Lindsey tunes.But now its the off season of touring here and I do slack off on playing them by going back to country tunes ,oldies and lite rock tunes.
now holiday tunes.Time to time I'll play them but not every minute of the day like in the mitz of their touring season.And I'll play them to reference of comments from this forum to see what the poster is talking about.
