Default Fleetwood Mac Covers (2018 Online Article)

Online article from 2018 with links to a whole bunch of nifty covers of Fleetwood songs. I never heard a lot of these. My favorite is WMYTYTO by a band called Fanfarlo.

Each link has a little writeup.

I think you could probably file this under, "present band".

When I heard the first Pointer Sister singing the opening lines of Hypnotized, I swore it was Bob Welch.

Hooray for this chilled cover of WMYTYTO. Great find.

Coffee-house cover of The Ledge by Nickel Creek is also a treat, glad to come across it again.

The Sisters Of The Moon electropop cover is a pretty interpretation.

A couple of my other favorite "covers" not included in this list are the joyous Cut Copy mashup of Never Forget and Lifelike's So Electric (YouTube), and
Bob Welch's smouldering Silver Heels cover "Hustler" (nsfw) (YouTube).
Leo Kotke's World Turning and Ari Hest's Little Lies are also solid.

Here's some bonus cover trivia for you David, as a reward.
In the Buckingham Nicks version of Crystal, Lindsey initially pronounces the initial "i" in "initial" with the standard "I" vowel sound. Then on the 1975 album he regresses to a sloppy schwa ("uh-nitial"). Speech Communications major Stevie salvages the situation in the Practical Magic cover of the song years later, in which the pronunciation is restored to its first, initial feeling.

I never thought Pointer Sisters had a Fleetwood Mac cover.
