i don't mind it
BUT
i don't like the backstage stalker-ish shots
unless that's how the whole thing had been shot
i don't like her lip syncing or the hand gestures
it reminds me of some Glee dream sequence
def needs some close ups
i understand what's trying to happen here, but i agree with previous comments, poorly executed


i like how she says "white" piano

Totally agree

Default Really?

At 66 years old, I won't be ready for my close up, let alone a new album, single, video, a Fleetwood Mac tour, and the press the accompanies that! I can barely commit to one night at a Fleetwood Mac concert, considering the parking, meal, and bathroom break! Just sayin'...

I was really hoping to see her sitting in the audience with Mick (or even Dave) looking on from the doorway at the end of the video a la If Anyone Falls. That would have been fun.

Was not caring for it when I first heard it.

I actually like the video with the song reminds me of an old Vaudeville singer
/torch singer.. being she is of a certain age it's probably how she sees it. just in an empty auditorium singing about her past

I am so incredibly disappointed in her. She is the only artist i have ever really connected with. Yet, I grow more dis-enchanted by her every year. I can't figure out if it is because she has changed so much or I have changed or both.

It's just sad to watch. Even the way she looks has gotten "odd". For example, there is something wrong with her upper lip the past few years, it looks like she has had one too many Botox treatments and can't really move the upper lip. Her face recently has started to have that "octolady" look to it, the plastic surgeon is pulling too much, she is gonna end up with that " joker smile" if she keeps having work done by those LA surgeons......this last video broke whatever shred I was holding on to....

I am walking away now. After 35 years I can not keep watching this. I am done. Goodbye.

Hmmmmm......Well, it's called the aging process and it's happening to all of us. Fortunately, most of us don't have to endure it in the public eye. I'm certainly not the pretty, fresh looking pop tart I was even 10 years ago. While I can certainly understand some of your sentiment (I'm not happy with Stevie doing cheesy shows like "The Voice"), this is a little harsh.

I like the video, but don't love it. I understand people's differing views. But don't understand the comments about her appearance. I think she looks stunning. If only we all could look that good at 66.

Well okay you could do that, or you could try to appreciate what she has given us. Just a suggestion.

I can accept the first part of the comments as one's constructive, yet extreme criticism, but the whole aging and looks thing I think is telling of something else. I think this guy or gal either has a hell of a lot going on in his or her life, or he/she is really pissed at some people on this board or both...and is fed up (resulting in the looks dig and knew that would piss people off). Anyway, I'm not taking the post at face value, but I wish him or her the very best! As opposed to other responding comments that make him sound like some kind of trader (gee can't believe why he would be pissed at people on this board), I don't care if that's what he/she wants to do. Go forward my friend...I'm sure there is life out there outside of Stevie and FM fandom. Have a blessed life.

Why were people always giving Stevie and Lindsey valuable stuff for no reason? It makes me kind of suspicious. I think they were in the sex trade.

Love the song, but I don't love the video. They wanted to go simple. OK, just have her sitting on that wonderful stage, in that beautiful theatre playing the crap out of that song on piano. She's played Rhiannon several times publicly on piano and could most certainly have pulled this one off. I love Stevie to the end but like some others I think this was a missed opportunity. Don't know if it's because they had little time to record the album and then do a video and well maybe she didn't want to spend a fortune on a video. Who knows but it just doesn't seem to work.
