Makes me wonder about all the Fleetwood Mac tunes that refer to cities: Empire State, The City, Silver Springs, New Orleans, Illume, Point Me in the Direction of Albuquerque, and so on.

Bad Journey has a lot of cities in it. Bermuda Triangle has a list of them. Both talk of Key Biscayne.

Fleetwood Mac spent lots of time in Miami and around Key Biscayne during the late 70s. But in Bad Journey she mentions Boise Idaho. I am curious if her or her nephew just thought the syllables fit with the song or she was ever there. I cant recall if the Mac ever played Idaho.
Curious minds want to know.

Bob’s Bermuda Triangle comes to mind. Christine’s “Hollywood” and “Estoril” are two others. Danny’s “Trinity” (I think it applies).

Edit: And “Hypnotized”

TIL “If Anyone Falls” was released on September 3, 1983 and Madonna’s “Holiday” was released on September 7, 1983.

No way. Both of their egos wouldn't fit in the same room.

I don’t know, but Stevie’s coke problem catching up with her couldn’t have come at a more inopportune time.

They've met. Madonna took Lourdes to the show and they met Stevie backstage. I forget the year but it was around 2011 or so.

I was joking. Is this your first encounter with me?

That had to be one of the most passive aggressive moments in rock.
