My point is current worlwide popularity. GYOW nowadays is not as popular as Dreams, Dont Stop or Everywhere in Peru, Argentina, Spain, etc.

Hotel California and Dreams are still usually played in 70s-80s music radios (southamerica and some eruopean countries i have visited). Go Your Own Way unfortunately is not.

Dreams is recognized by millenials, centenials. Not a lot, but some of them know that song. As they know HC. GYOW is not known.

Again, I'm talking about today popularity, presence on radios, not talking about quality or artistic work.

However let's keep in mind that curiously it was Christine who won most of the "favorite songs grouped by singer" album polls in The Ledge Rumours forum.

About GYOW, I just say it is the song that, not necessarily represented, but made me think FLEETWOOD MAC ROCKS!

Whatevs. I hear GYOW THREE TIMES as much on the radio as Dreams. YMMV.

I would agree. I hear Everywhere, literally Everywhere. I heard it in Paris, London, on a cruise ship, even Barcelona.
