What a bullsh!t list. Blue Letter? Dreams at #1?! Looks like they just regurgitated Fleetwood Mac's singles.

Well, dreams was their only number one single. I personally can't believe Sara didn't make the list.

Nope, but I do not hate it: I like the intro and some parts in the middle, the background vocals and the bass line; but sometimes all I notice is the endless pling-plong-pling-plong-pling...

It's nearly impossible to come up with a definitive complilation. Perhaps each writer get a "best of" disc of their own songs.

What! This has got to be the best of these kinds of best of lists they put out for fleetwood Mac, not done by us. Now that bar is set REALLY low, but at least this guy includes 5 pre 75 songs, sisters of the moon, blue letter etc. and his write ups are Much better then most and say more then " uh dis is another song about how they broke up" only issue is at #11 he calls sentimental lady bare trees.

This top 20 is probably as close to my top 20 as I'm ever gonna see.

I didn't find the list offensive until they had Don't Stop as #2. Such a horrific song on so many levels. I just don't get it.

It's catchy and uplifting. It's easy to see why it's popular.

I don't like the Clinton inauguration performance but the album track is very well performed. A spirited tune. It's hard not to get caught up in it. There were countless live performances of it up to 1982 that were quite good, unfortunately nowadays it's tiresome and worn out its welcome in live snows.

Bare Trees was a surprise find on this list.
