1
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,280
I listen to Fleetwood Mac every day
2
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,960
because artists like that
unlock the doors of perception.
3
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,640
They connect you to a creative soul.
4
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,000
In terms of being able to do music
across a multiplicity of genres,
5
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,800
they're kind of incomparable.
6
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,800
For me, it's the marriage
of those tones,
7
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,560
both of the voices
but of the instruments.
8
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,680
And what I love about Fleetwood Mac
is that no song
9
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,160
is really a show-off song
for anyone.
10
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,480
Everyone kind of gets their moment.
11
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,520
They're the perfect example of
letting go
12
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,680
and just, just
letting your thing flow.
13
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,800
Where it leads, if you let it flow,
14
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,320
is these songs that came out of
these different marriages.
15
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:32,720
Well, Fleetwood Mac were invented
by Peter Green,
16
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,520
who was a blues guitarist
17
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,760
and part of the British
blues guitar explosion of the time.
18
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,800
A kind of Clapton-y, Yardbirds
thing was going on around there,
19
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:47,360
and he started Fleetwood Mac
and it's very much his baby.
20
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,640
Peter Green recruited Mick Fleetwood
on drums and John McVie on bass,
21
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,360
and they were the name -
Fleetwood Mac.
22
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:54,680
They were huge.
23
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,080
At one point they were selling
more than the Beatles
24
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,360
and the Rolling Stones combined,
25
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,520
and had a really big
hard-core blues following.
26
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,440
Albatross changed that slightly
27
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,600
in that they became
slightly more mainstream.
28
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:12,800
But in doing that, it lost them
a lot of those hard-core blues fans,
29
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,320
but it gained them
a lot of new fans.
30
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,760
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC: Albatross
31
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,320
It sounds incredible,
even all these years later.
32
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,880
It's just got that
classic Americana...
33
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,960
..kind of dream pop,
dream-like vibe.
34
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,160
But it also wouldn't feel out
of place on kind of...
35
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,400
almost like a '90s chill-out album
as well.
36
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,480
To have established a blues fan base
37
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,280
and to then present them with this,
38
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:38,560
I can't imagine it was well-received
by all of their fans.
39
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,080
It certainly would
confound expectations.
40
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,680
Certainly, I think, a lot of people
would be surprised
41
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,280
if they heard
the entire back catalogue.
42
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:15,000
I used to listen to a lot of kind of
rock and roll and punk music,
43
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,120
and there's a Fleetwood Mac song,
44
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,840
I think it's called Somebody's Going
to Get Their Head Kicked in Tonight.
45
00:05:20,840 --> 00:05:24,040
That's certainly the kind of,
the chorus of the main line.
46
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,120
# Somebody's going to
get their head kicked in tonight. #
47
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,720
And I just...
48
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,040
I don't think
when I first heard that song
49
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,440
I realised it was Fleetwood Mac
that sang it.
50
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,080
Then when I realised it was
and it was the same people
51
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,320
that sing, like, Everywhere,
I was just like,
52
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,240
"What? That doesn't make sense."
53
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,920
So, yeah, there's
lots of surprising gems
54
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,240
in the Fleetwood Mac back catalogue.
55
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:51,320
We're now going to do our
latest single, called Oh Well.
56
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,360
# I can't help
about the shape I'm in
57
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,720
# I can't sing, I ain't pretty
and my legs are thin
58
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,240
# But don't ask me
what I think of you
59
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,880
# I might not give the answer
that you want me to... #
60
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,400
Guitars are
the coolest...instrument.
61
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,320
Look at those guys!
62
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,560
Look at them, they're having fun.
63
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,040
They don't care that you're there.
64
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,600
The way he's playing, the way his
fingers are, and they look so cool.
65
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,960
# Now, when I talked to God
I knew he'd understand
66
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,760
# He said, stick by me
and I'll be your guiding hand
67
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,920
# But don't ask me
what I think of you
68
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,000
# I might not give the answer
that you want me to. #
69
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:50,040
It was very, erm, intense kind of
12-bar, it has to be 12-bar.
70
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,800
The anorak crowd, the sort of
hard-core blues guys were like,
71
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,760
"Oh, you're a sell-out."
72
00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:01,720
And with "Oh Well" as well,
they're already losing fans,
73
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,000
haemorrhaging hard-core blues fans.
74
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:25,560
They lost almost all
of their fan base in the UK
75
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,160
and then they lose
their main songwriter.
76
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,640
So they don't just lose their crowd,
they lose their main guy.
77
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,440
Apparently, two band members,
Peter Green being one of them,
78
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:42,160
had a bad acid trip in Germany,
this is the folklore of it.
79
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,920
And after that, Peter Green
did not feel right.
80
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,880
So at this point, obviously, Peter
Green just needs a really good rest.
81
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:52,000
So Peter leaves
and you still have Mick and John,
82
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,120
Fleetwood and Mac,
83
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,680
who obviously want to continue
as a band.
84
00:08:56,680 --> 00:09:00,000
And so you have this kind of
almost barren period
85
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,040
where they're not making music,
they're constantly searching
86
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,320
and trying out new members.
87
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,040
Then in comes Christine,
John's wife,
88
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,400
who comes in on merit
89
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,800
because she's an incredibly
accomplished songwriter,
90
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,720
great keyboard player.
91
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,960
Which led to this craziest luck
ever with Mick Fleetwood going
92
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,720
into a studio in Los Angeles
to check out the studio,
93
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,560
and the producer, like, puts on
a reel to show him what he can do,
94
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:33,400
"This is what I last...
This is my latest thing."
95
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,520
Apparently, Mick Fleetwood
heard a record by a duo called
96
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,720
Buckingham Nicks,
so he asked them out for dinner.
97
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,280
He invited Lindsey Buckingham,
the guitarist,
98
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,920
to join Fleetwood Mac
and Lindsey Buckingham said,
99
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,600
"Well, actually, I'm going out with
Stevie Nicks,"
100
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,880
who is the other partner in
the duo, "We come as a package.
101
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,120
"We don't go anywhere
without each other."
102
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,920
So, unbeknownst to Mick Fleetwood,
103
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,760
suddenly he's got Stevie Nicks
in the band.
104
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,320
And probably this was a sort of,
105
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,640
"Is she going to work? Is this going
to work? What are we going to do?"
106
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,480
But actually, suddenly,
the magic happens.
107
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,160
# Have mercy, baby
on a poor girl like me
108
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:20,560
# You know, I'm falling, falling
Falling at your feet
109
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,400
# I'm tingling right through
my head to my toes
110
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:33,560
# So help me, help me, help me
make the feeling go
111
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,960
# Cos when the loving starts
and the lights go down
112
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,680
# And there's not
another living soul around
113
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:46,920
# You woo me until the sun comes up
114
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,840
# And you say that you love me
115
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:54,640
# Have pity, baby
116
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,240
# Just when I thought it was over
117
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:04,160
# You got me running, running,
running for cover
118
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,600
# I'm begging you
for a little sympathy
119
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,480
# And if you use me again
it'll be the end of me
120
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,000
# Cos when the loving starts
and the lights go down
121
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,320
# There's not another little... #
Oh, look at that!
122
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,520
# You woo me
until the sun comes up... #
123
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,840
And they're so different voices,
as well.
124
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,760
You know, Christine and Stevie's
voices are worlds apart.
125
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,120
But together...
126
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,760
..it's so special.
127
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,840
So much of the success of
the songwriting has come from
128
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:51,520
Stevie and Christine. Their talent
as performers and musicians,
129
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,680
you know, no arguments there.
130
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:57,600
But in terms of what went on,
in terms of the songwriting,
131
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,560
I don't think they get the credit
that they're due for how much
132
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:04,480
of the success of Fleetwood Mac
is due to them.
133
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,480
# Baby, baby, hope you're
gonna stay away
134
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,920
# Cos I'm getting weaker, weaker,
weaker every day
135
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,920
# I guess I'm not as strong
as I used to be
136
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,600
# And if you use me again
it'll be the end of me
137
00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:35,920
# Cos when the loving starts
and the lights go down
138
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,760
# And there's not another
living soul around
139
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,880
# You woo me until the sun comes up
140
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,440
# And you say that you love me
141
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,160
# Yes, when the loving starts
and the lights go down
142
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,840
# There's not another
living soul around
143
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,640
# You woo me until the sun comes up
144
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,840
# And you say that you love me
145
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,840
# Say that you love me
146
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,840
# Say that you love me. #
147
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,720
Rhiannon is written by Stevie Nicks,
148
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,520
and I really think
it's a phenomenal song.
149
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,480
It only reached 46 in the UK charts,
I believe,
150
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,400
which is a shockingly low
chart position.
151
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,960
In the Rolling Stone magazine vote
of the 500 top songs,
152
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,520
it comes in at 488, which I think
is a very respectful place
153
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,880
when you think of how many songs
there are in the world.
154
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,640
But what I like about this song,
Stevie Nicks always introduces it
155
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,520
as being about a Welsh witch.
156
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,600
This is a song about a Welsh witch.
157
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,640
# Rhiannon rings like a bell
through the night
158
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,640
# And wouldn't you love to love her?
159
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,320
# She rules her life
like a bird in flight
160
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,160
# And who will be her lover?
161
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,080
# All your life
you've never seen a woman
162
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,880
# Taken by the wind
163
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,160
# Would you stay
if she promised you heaven?
164
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,880
# Will you ever win?
165
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:19,480
# She is like a cat in the dark
and then she is the darkness
166
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,200
# She rules her life
like a fine skylark
167
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,040
# And when the sky is starless
168
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:33,080
# Once in a million years
a lady like her rises
169
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,720
# Rhiannon... #
170
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,600
At the time, she was very much into
Welsh mythology
171
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,920
and was starting to learn about
the goddess of horses,
172
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,880
which is very prominent
in Welsh folklore.
173
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,800
But it's the way she's written it.
174
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,440
She writes in
a stream of consciousness,
175
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,600
which really only
Stevie Nicks could do.
176
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,520
She doesn't finish her phrases,
so she writes words that fit
177
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,480
the musical phrase
more than they fit the sense,
178
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,080
but it works
because that's how she writes.
179
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,520
It's ingrained,
it's part of her DNA,
180
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,000
she's not faking it.
181
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,920
She's discovered what works
for her voice.
182
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,520
# She rings like a bell
through the night
183
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,480
# And wouldn't you love to love her?
184
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,120
# She rules her life
like a bird in flight
185
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,960
# And who will be her lover?
186
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:34,080
# Once in a million years
a lady like her rises
187
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:40,320
# Rhiannon, you cry when she's gone
and your life knows no answer
188
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,840
# And your life knows no answer. #
189
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,200
Stevie Nicks was the only member
of the band
190
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,480
who didn't play an instrument,
191
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,880
so she wrote in a different way
to everybody else.
192
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,880
But she has this stage presence.
193
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,640
She's 5'1" and she has that thing
of suddenly she's the focal point.
194
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,320
I don't think they predicted
the success she would have,
195
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,440
just as being an icon,
just as being herself.
196
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,160
Yes, you can't mistake her
for anybody else.
197
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,360
# Taken by, taken by the sky
198
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,200
# Taken by, taken by the sky
199
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,920
# Taken by, taken by the sky
200
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,320
# No, ohh. #
201
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,160
Lindsey Buckingham's guitar-playing
is so extraordinary,
202
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,120
so ahead of its time.
203
00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:00,640
Creating those sounds without
a pick - he was a finger player -
204
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,640
but also strums.
205
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,440
It's just mind-blowing.
206
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,280
John's like, you know, he just
stands in the background there
207
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:26,240
and does his thing brilliantly
and is so intrinsically important
208
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,560
to the sound of that band.
209
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,640
John and Mick, you know, those
two are the... They're the roots
210
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,720
of Fleetwood Mac,
they're the foundations, really,
211
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,480
and the quiet foundations.
212
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,600
Just get on with
what they're doing.
213
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,480
The notion of something beautiful
214
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,720
coming out of something
so horrendous is Rumours.
215
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:01,160
This was a band who,
the success of the Mac was growing,
216
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,080
they were a hugely popular band.
217
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,280
But as they were becoming
more and more successful,
218
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,520
the band were imploding, really.
219
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,920
You know, relationships
were breaking down.
220
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:16,200
Rumours is really a break-up album
between Buckingham and Nicks
221
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,400
and also John and Christine,
222
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,880
and Mick Fleetwood was breaking up
with his wife in England.
223
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:29,240
Almost every song
is about someone in the band.
224
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,120
And they are playing on, and
singing on, songs about each other,
225
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:35,800
bringing lyrics in at the
last minute because they know
226
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,840
the person in the room
will know it's about them,
227
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,680
and obviously it's complete chaos
228
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,640
and yet those tensions
are the things that make it.
229
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,520
And some of those songs
are quite mellifluous
230
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,400
and they're quite soothing and then
you realise what they're about -
231
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,160
they're about a band
hating each other.
232
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,360
And then to just air that
about each other, it's...
233
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:56,600
It's a lot of tolerance on each side
to allow it, you know,
234
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,000
and not throw around tools
and just walk out.
235
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:06,920
# Loving you isn't
the right thing to do
236
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:13,680
# How can I ever change things
that I feel?
237
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,680
# If I could, baby
I'd give you my world
238
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,160
# How can I
when you won't take it from me?
239
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,800
# You can go your own way
240
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,520
# Go your own way
241
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,400
# You can call it
another lonely day. #
242
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,640
Stevie Nicks is looking daggers
at Lindsey Buckingham because
243
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,800
she wanted a line removed -
"packing up, shacking up" -
244
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,480
which is Lindsey Buckingham
responding to the shock
245
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,280
of Stevie Nicks leaving him.
246
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:02,160
# Packing up, shacking up
is all you wanna do
247
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:09,440
# If I could, baby
I'd give you my world
248
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:16,240
# Open up
Everything's waiting for you
249
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:22,640
# You can go your own way
250
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,520
# Go your own way
251
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:30,920
# You can call it another lonely day
252
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,440
# You can go your own way
253
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,480
# Go your own way
254
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,320
# You can go your own way
255
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,160
# Go your own way
256
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,560
# You can call it another lonely day
257
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,080
# Another lonely day
258
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,960
# You can go your own way
259
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,240
# Go your own way
260
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,400
# You can call it another... #
261
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,320
It's a really brilliantly
arranged song.
262
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,280
Backing vocals, for me,
are one of the most magical parts
263
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,680
of making a record and Fleetwood Mac
are an absolute flag in the sand
264
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:45,160
for how to do backing vocals and
how to sing together as a group.
265
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,840
And the song's got such
a beautiful example of those.
266
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,840
# You can call it another lonely day
267
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,880
# Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
268
00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:00,280
# You can call it
another lonely day. #
269
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:30,320
Fleetwood Mac have found their way
into my songs.
270
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:35,360
There's one particular song, Dreams,
which was...
271
00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:39,480
A friend of mine had put on
a mix tape and the tape got stuck
272
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,840
in the tape player in my first car.
273
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,720
It was the first song
on the first side,
274
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,920
so when it went round,
when it clicked both sides,
275
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,640
it came back to that again.
276
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:54,440
And I must have heard that song
hundreds and hundreds of times.
277
00:22:54,440 --> 00:23:00,480
I went from loving this song
to absolutely hating it,
278
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:05,000
like really getting on my nerves,
to loving it again.
279
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,400
That's never happened before.
280
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,320
It's always - you love it,
then you hate it,
281
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,440
then it's, "I'm never going to
hear that again."
282
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,440
"Thunder only happens
when it's raining,
283
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,200
"raining, raining, raining," and
it's probably somehow eked out
284
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,120
Why Does It Always Rain On Me?
285
00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:22,560
Maybe. Who knows?!
286
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,240
# Now there you go again, you say
287
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,000
# You want your freedom
288
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,000
# Well, who am I to keep you down?
289
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:48,680
# It's only right that you should
play the way you feel it
290
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,960
# But listen carefully to the sound
291
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,040
# Of your loneliness
292
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,920
# Like a heartbeat drives you mad
293
00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:05,240
# In the stillness of remembering
what you had
294
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,640
# And what you lost
295
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,360
# And what you had
296
00:24:14,360 --> 00:24:16,920
# Ooh, what you lost
297
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:25,360
# Thunder only happens
when it's raining
298
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:32,800
# Players only love you
when they're playing
299
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:39,920
# Say women they will come
and they go
300
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:48,440
# When the rain washes you clean
you'll know. #
301
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,800
Dreams is a really fascinating song
to me because I don't
302
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,600
really understand why
I love it so much.
303
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,840
Because it's a groove.
304
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,680
It really comes down to the
testament of Stevie Nicks' voice.
305
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,680
And someone else doing it,
it could've been really dull.
306
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,160
# Well, here I go again
307
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,240
# I see crystal visions
308
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,600
# I keep my visions to myself
309
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:29,240
# It's only me who wants to wrap
around your dreams and
310
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,400
# Have you any dreams
you'd like to sell? #
311
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,200
Great songs come from below
the neck, they come from your gut,
312
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,800
where all these memories and
emotional memories are trapped,
313
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,400
and this is where
your emotional life is.
314
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,880
It's not up here, it's down here.
315
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,880
And if you're going through
really harsh emotional stuff,
316
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,680
it's very easy to go down.
317
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,240
Them going through
these crazy relationships
318
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,720
in the making of that record
is exactly what makes that record.
319
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:06,040
# Thunder only happens
when it's raining
320
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:14,040
# Players only love you
when they're playing
321
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:21,920
# Say women they will come
and they will go, oh, oh
322
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:30,320
# When the rain washes you clean
you'll know
323
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,000
# Ohh
324
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:37,320
# Thunder only happens
when it's raining
325
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:44,960
# Players only love you
when they're playing
326
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,320
# Well
327
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:52,320
# Women they will come
and they will go
328
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:01,480
# When the rain washes you clean
you'll know. #
329
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,360
So you've got these kind of
call and response songs going on
330
00:27:04,360 --> 00:27:08,080
between Stevie and Lindsey,
and then on the other side
331
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,120
with John and Christine, Christine's
off doing her, you know,
332
00:27:12,120 --> 00:27:15,720
I guess therapy
of getting it all out through song.
333
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,760
And she comes back with
this brilliantly, kind of bouncy,
334
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,480
breezy song about, you know,
tomorrow's just another day.
335
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,760
It's amazing to think that
these songs came out of that.
336
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,080
The thing for me is like,
is she saying it to herself
337
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,520
or is she saying it to John?
338
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,560
You know, "Don't stop thinking
about tomorrow,"
339
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,720
to herself or to John?
340
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,040
Or to the entire band?
Let's be fair!
341
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,880
# If you wake up
and don't want to smile
342
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,480
# If it takes just a little while
343
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,160
# Open your eyes and look at the day
344
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,120
# You'll see things
in a different way
345
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:05,240
# Don't stop thinking
about tomorrow
346
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:09,000
# Don't stop, it'll soon be here
347
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,480
# It'll be better than before
348
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,360
# Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
349
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,880
# Why not think about the times
to come?
350
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,680
# And not about the things
that you've done
351
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,600
# If your life was bad to you
352
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,320
# Just think what tomorrow will do
353
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,840
# Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
354
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,200
# Don't stop, it'll soon be here
355
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,400
# It'll be better than before
356
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,040
# Yesterday's gone,
yesterday's gone. #
357
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:00,320
Lyrically, it's just a masterclass
in really saying
358
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:05,720
exactly what you're talking about,
you're not being that veiled.
359
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,840
But you're saying sometimes
quite cliched things
360
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,960
in a way that speaks of
something new, that speaks of
361
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,040
something rawer than just
a regular cliche.
362
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,080
# All I want is to see you smile
363
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,400
# If it takes just a little while
364
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,360
# I know you don't believe
that it's true
365
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,800
# I never meant any harm to you
366
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,480
# Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
367
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,160
# Don't stop
368
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,360
# It'll soon be here
369
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,040
# It'll be better than before
370
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,800
# Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
371
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,520
# Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
372
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,480
# Don't stop, it'll soon be here
373
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,960
# It'll be better than before
374
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,960
# Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
375
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,520
# Ooh
376
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,240
# Don't you look back. #
377
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,960
Before I knew what The Chain was
as a song, that bass riff I knew
378
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,880
from watching Formula 1,
or my dad watching Formula 1.
379
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,160
And then it was only years later
discovering that it was part of
380
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,640
this epic kind of almost opera,
from Rumours, The Chain.
381
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,400
It's my favourite Fleetwood Mac song
because it's so...
382
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,000
When you hear it for the first time,
383
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,400
it takes you here, there
and everywhere,
384
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,720
it's so unexpected
as to where it goes.
385
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:40,960
For me, I think it's one of
the best songs ever made.
386
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,960
# Listen to the wind blow
387
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,360
# Watch the sun rise
388
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,680
# Running in the shadows
389
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,920
# Damn your love, damn your lies
390
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,960
# And if you don't love me now
391
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,960
# You will never love me again
392
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,280
# I can still hear you saying
393
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,680
# You would never break the chain
394
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,160
# Never break the chain
395
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:22,680
# And if you don't love me now
396
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,120
# If you don't love me now
397
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,480
# You will never love me again
398
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,680
# I can still hear you saying
399
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,200
# You would never break the chain
