Lindsey Buckingham sings this, with Stevie nicks backing up.
Kind of funny that they thought maybe it was Stevie singing lead here.
Yes, in preparation for recording the track she grew a beard and a big fuzzy fro. 🦍
And Christine!
@@julie5310 And Lindsey! (yes he also sings backup in addition to lead)
He wrote this about her
That's your opinion A lot of people think it's neither one of them but the truth is somewhere in between. Look at at the curb
The band has 3 lead singers. Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie (who also plays keyboards) and Lindsey Buckingham (who also plays guitar). Lindsey is doing the lead on this with Stevie and Christine joining in on the chorus. All three also write the songs that they sing.
Came here to say the same exact thing ... only, I was laughing for what seemed like forever when they said they thought it was Stevie.
they’ve been told plenty times before🤷🏻♂️
I NEVER knew that
I always thought it sounded so different lol
@@frankingenito Steve was guitars
Lindsey Buckingham is a very underappreciated guitarist.🎸😎👍
As good as he is the band started off with the iconic Peter Green !
i was a heavy metal dj but this always got a good reaction when i played this song!!
Mick Fleetwood is killing it on the drums here. His beat and fills take this from a folksy pop song to a "galloping anthem". I've always thought this was one of their very best tracks.
Come on Stevie Nicks voice is so distinctive! You cannot miss her voice. You can hear her doing background vocals!
We can hear her in the back. After hearing about 5 or 6 songs with her leading, we didn’t know anyone else sang lead
I'm not sure you do hear her vocals on this studio recording. There definitely is a lot of Lindsey in the harmonies and probably some Christine. I have a harder time picking out Stevie on this one.
@@michaelvielhaber9342 ...and that's why their harmonies are so good. People never seem to hear Christine on "The Chain", either....but she's there!!!
@@AirplayBeats If you have her on 6 leads then that is almost the entirety of her Fleetwood Mac catalog.
You were likely hearing Christine McVie, whose output was much more voluminous.
@@bartstarr100 Hah. For all that so many think she is the only lead singer she did sing the fewest leads of the three. From 1975-1987 - their "Rumours 5" period Stevie sang lead and co-lead on 25% of the songs - 16 over 5 albums. Christine about 35% and Lindsey 50%. On stage that was about the same % with Stevie growing a bit more throughout the years to match Christine's.
Lindsey Buckingham is the lead singer on this--he is the guitarist and former boyfriend of Stevie--which actually is what this is about--the breakup. They wrote songs that often reflected the relationships going on in the band (The Chain).
@@gregcable3250 Steve was not a good boyfriend, but great guitar
@@seltonk5136 Think you mean Lindsay, yes? If so, agreed.
@@gregcable3250 the girl was not a guitarist, I can't name one guitarist with biobs. girls weren't even allowed to play guitar in some parts of my state
@@seltonk5136 What the F are you talking about, David Duke? Lindsay Buckingham is a guy. Stevie Nicks is a woman. Get that lesion on your frontal lobe checked--for the sake of everyone, Bubba.
The rhythm section (Fleetwood and McVie) are just next level as well. Such a great band !
John McVie always gave them a fat bottom. An often overlooked player yet integral to their sound.
Exactly. The drums are a key part of this song. So unique. I couldn’t imagine this song without that drum part.
@@Ezekiel33USA Interesting that Mick's dyslexia added to that. Lindsey knew the exact marching drum pattern he wanted but Mick couldn't quite get it down due his dyslexia so it has a slight off rhythm pattern which is fantastic.
Bros, this is the great break-up album and you must understand the dynamics of the personal relationships of the band members to grasp how awesome this record really is. Each song is a dagger or a plea or confession to someone else in the band, written by Lindsey, or Stevie (who were a couple) or Christine (who was married to the bass player but in love with guitar player). It's absolutely gold watching them live on stage during this time period. Their angst fueled their creativity (and cocaine helped too)
This is actually about the lunar landing not some interpersonal demons
Lyndsey was lead vocal on this mega hit. NO BAND HAS A RIGHT TO BE THIS TALENTED!!!
Genesis had Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Mike Rutherford (Mike+ Mechanics), Steve Hackett and Tony Banks. All writers too.
Chicago had 3 lead singers and writers Terry Kath, Peter Cetera and Robert Lamm.
UK had John Wetton (Roxy Music, King Crimson, Asia) Eddie Jobson (Curved Air, Roxy Music, his own band), Bill Bruford (Yes, King Crimson, his own band), Allan Holdsworth (Gong, Soft Machine, Bruford, his own jazz fusion band).
And then there is the Beatles. All 4 sang. All 4 wrote songs, all 4 solo careers.
@@kbrewski1 I don't really think Glenn was saying they are the only band this talented
Yeah this album just ain’t fair
@@kbrewski1can’t be forgetting about my beloved Queen.. Freddie Brian John and Roger.. woo all wrote #1 hits and music!!
@@cmoeller3
Queen was all about Mercury.
Rumors was released in Feb of 77. Not a normal LP. Please consider full record reaction. Over 40 Million copies sold. Grammy Award for Album of the Year 1978. Number One on the Album Charts for 31 weeks. RIP Christine McVie 🙏 Great reaction gentlemen 👍
My pops had this album. My mom had it too. All their friends had it. I have it and all of my friends likewise. It’s fantastic and every single track is top notch!🖖🏼
Rumors was perfection, every song on the album made it to radio airplay and it's always a treat when it comes on the radio. One day you'll have heard enough classic rock that listening to your local classic rock station won't be a spoiler.
Fleetwood Mac is not known for their guitar solos, but Lindsey Buckingham's solo on this is one of his most notable, especially when
he plays live. Lindsey's guitar playing is unique and sadly underrated when people talk about the band. When the Bass, Drums and
Lindsey's playing starts rolling; it's a fantastic flowing feeling. Great choice, and excellent commentary, as always. Thanks, guys.
Lindsey Buckingham is lead vocals. Probaly to stevie nicks
Not the Rumours era since Lindsey played, arranged and produced to the song. He lets loose in concert. But FM started off as a guitar band - at times having 3 guitarists in addition to the bass.
Actually, they were when they first started. Peter Green was a phenomenal guitarist, he wrote black magic woman. He left band in 1970, suffered from schizophrenia.
Hello! The male voice is Lindsey Buckingham.
Got it!! Thank you!
One of the biggest selling albums of the rock era. This and Hotel California by the Eagles pretty much dominated 1977 on the radio (Aja too). Every song great and most were hits.
IT IS A GUY SINGING LEAD!! Lindsay Buckingham is the lead vocalist on this and he's the band's lead guitarist>>A GREAT LEAD GUITARIST. He tended to write the hardest rocking songs. The 2 gals, his then girlfriend Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie, the keyboardist (wife of bass player John McVie) were also lead and backup singers, generally did the softer tunes. The oddity of this album is the 2 couples (Buckingham/Nicks and the McVies) BOTH WERE SPLITTING UP WHILE RECORDING RUMOURS!!
So almost all the songs are ABOUT THEIR LOVE LIFE SPLITTING UP!!
The easiest way to tell the difference in the voices of the 3 is this (other than reading the album credits):
Lindsay has a somewhat high male voice, but he sings rockers and tends to shout the uptempo songs with kind of an urgency.
Stevie has a smoky seductive type voice, she does have a low register for a female, but "smoky" is the best term and her songs are witchy, gypsy like, a bit mysterious.
Christine McVie is also blonde (further confusing things), she's British (Buckingham/Nicks are Americans, McVies and Drummer Mick Fleetwood are British). Her songs are usually the softest and poppiest of the 3 singers.
All 3 were great songwriters and lead vocalists but Lindsay Buckingham brought the energy to the band, he's intense and an incredible guitarist. I saw FM once, but saw Buckingham solo twice in small venues just to watch his guitar playing.
I guess it doesn't help matters that Lindsey is usually a girl's name and Stevie is usually a guy's name. 🤔 😂
PS Fleetwood Mac btw, was formed by drummer Mick Fleetwood and bass player John MCVie, ie Mac.
The "heavier" female voice, as you described it, is the other female lead singer Christine Mcvie. She has kind of a low smoky tone. Yall said you might have heard Go Your Own Way in a commercial. React to "Everywhere" by Fleetwood Mac. Christine sings lead on that one. Lindsey and Stevie do some great harmonies with her. You will definitely recognize it. Only a few months ago it was all over TV in Chevy's “EVs for Everyone” commercials. Sadly Christine passed away Nov 30 2022. Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac wrote or co-wrote eight of the band's songs on their Greatest Hits album. Guys don't leave her out of your Fleetwood Mac reactions!
@@gothicprincess52 stop gossip
Everyone had this album when it came out. If you lived in the suburbs it was issued to you. It came in the mail, with samples of Tide.
That comment is hilarious and true!
@@thomasdempsey721 Lol...I'd like to take credit, but Wayne said it in, *Wayne's World.*
Everyone white
@@seltonk5136 I said, "in the suburbs".
@@Cosmo-Kramer I am darkie from suburbs
Lindsey leads with Stevie and Chris backing vocals.
Chev used in ads, I think.
Missing Chris. 🥺
Lindsey Buckingham is the lead singer on this song. This line-up, they had 3 lead singers, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Fleetwood Mac has always had more than one lead singer at any given time.
That's Lindsey Buckingham singing. Great guitar player and songwriter too.
Mick Fleetwood, such an underrated drummer....
This was played at my cousin's wedding reception. I cant think of many songs less apt.
Lindsey wrote this song to Stevie. At the time they were recording the Rumours album Lindsey and Stevie were breaking up. John and Christine McVie were were going through a divorce also. Almost every song on the album was directed at each others partner. It's a million wonders the band survived and were able to perform these scathing songs live, which did lead to some intense live performances.
I don't think there's a song on this whole album that isn't fantastic - another awesome choice to fire up my work morning. Peace and love from Canada!
Every note of Rumours is flawless. One of the only perfect albums to ever be made.
Too perfect.
Rush, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, Stones, Beatles...all have MULTIPLE perfect albums. Pete Townshend's Empty Glass, Trapeze Medusa, Steve Winwood Arc of A Diver, Icehouse by Icehouse. The Police have at least 2 perfect albums. U2 has 2 perfect albums...I could go on and on, and I didn't even go into Motown albums, which have plenty of perfect albums. But this is a perfect album. But no, not as many perfect albums by Fleetwood Mac as they maybe could have had. Apologies to the many bands I didn't mention. I know there's about 200 perfect albums. Boston debut etc. It's not that uncommon. But by today's standards, yes. Heck Lucinda Williams had a perfect album, so did Shelby Lynn.
Boston !!!
Along with Joshua Tree and Violator.
@@Greg-io1ip you're comparing U2 to Rumours? LOL. You've bumped your head.
Possibly the GOAT of "break-up songs". You write a song giving only your side of the story, it becomes a huge hit, and the girl you wrote it about is in the band and has to sing it every night! 🤣
ALL must hear classics,, Fleetwood Mac "Hypnotized",, "Peacekeeper" & "Thrown Down"
My FAVORITE Fleetwood Mac song!!! They have many great ones, but this is my favorite!!!
Lindsey Buckingham - electric guitars, 12-string acoustic guitar, lead vocals, backing vocals
Stevie Nicks - backing vocal
Christine McVie - Hammond organ, backing vocals
John McVie - bass guitar
Mick Fleetwood - drums, maracas, cymbals
It has a syncopated beat that makes it even cooler. Used to play this in a band way back. Lindsey on lead vocals here.
Lindsey is tearing that guitar up wit his finger picking style
Yes he is a finger picker
Not many lead "finger pickers", the only other one I can think of is Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits.
@@TheRagratus toy Caldwell of Marshall Tucker Band also
Lindsey singing, and lead guitar, Stevie singing backups
John McVies bass tone on this song, its just perfectly smooth.
It’s a sunny Sunday backroads Cruising song!
The drums play funky during the verses, but then play straight during the choruses. The bass playing straight during the verses then goes funky during the choruses. And the guitar is just seething around it all before it lets all the emotions loose. Killer musicians and songwriters at the peak of their game. And all of the well-known turmoil of this period in a nutshell.
Fleetwood Mac was a soap-opera story unto itself. 😮 So gifted so talented so impactful in the music world, Stevie Nicks had relationships with every male member in the band and her songs reflected that. I love their drama their music and a time where the world was discovering itself. I'm so happy to see you guys discovering our generations of beautiful music and impactful lyrics and arrangement. I love to watch you guys react it's like watching my kids. 💕 😂 I'm 66 in my oldest son is 45 and he has Traffic on this playlist, he also met Peter cetera in Las Vegas.. his friend was intimidated but my son told Mr Cetera, I've been listening to your music since I was six years old 😂 I love my legacy. 💕
My Daughter is 33, listens to Boston, Journey, Fleetwwod Mac but her favorite band of all time???? The Who. Name me another 33 y/o whose favorite band is The Who.
John McVie and Stevie? When was that?
@@paulqueripel3493 I agree- heard Stevie in an interview she was with Mick...but never said anything about John.
The guitar player, Lindsey Buckingham, is singing this song. He wrote it about Stevie Nicks. He wanted to end their personal relationship at the time, which they did, but the band stayed together for awhile longer.
Lindsey said the song was giving her a choice. Open up and take this relationship seriously or go your own way. Stevie has been pretty adamant that she ended it. It's just that her songs like Dreams and Silver Springs make it look like he did or he was the cheater (that was her too she admitted years later). She later said that her opening lines To Dreams were written from Lindsey's POV not hers. She wanted her freedom. SS was written after she left him and got with Henley. Christine said even though Steve axed it when Lindsey got tired of feeling bad and got himself some girlfriends then Stevie couldn't handle it.
Ya I was kinda wondering what you were referring too…Lindsey Buckingham sings this song Stevie and him have history(the whole band does 😊)-makes for great tunes!❤
They all harmonize so well!😅
You can just imagine the tension of such a break up song being sung by the two people breaking up night after night. Stevie didn't really agree with Lindsays' take on the situation.
Mick Fleetwood (drummer) is a monster!
The thing that seems to be getting past you guys (and I know there's a lot going on in this song) is that Mick Fleetwood on drums and John McVie on bass (Fleetwood/Mac) have worked together as the Mac's rhythm section since 1967.
They are the rock underneath everything else.
Voice of an angel Christine McVie 🙏
AirPlay Beats you guy's will Fleetwood Mac's Gypsy Stiveie Nicks Voice is GREAT in this song thanks
These songs are so Personal…y’all must watch live.
A band with multiple vocalists is magic
The ultimate break-up song with the subject singing back-up vocals!
Lindsay Buckingham on vocals, wrote this about his breakup with Stevie.
The opener "Second Hand News" is worthwhile.
Mick Fleetwood is the drummer, of course. It’s funny that he is almost never mentioned in reactions by anyone. He is amazing!
Mick fleetwood's lead in drumming on this song and some of his best drumming of all time. You are correct when you say Mick Fleetwood doesn't get enough credit for his drumming because he really is an excellent drummer.
Geez you Gents just won’t stop… not that we want you to but almost every song takes me back to when cruising in the country we could pull over anywhere and if the sheriff went by he just waved. So Miss those days but Thank You so much for reminding us of those days. 🫠🤤🫣😂🤠
I always thought of this song as Lindsey's reply to Stevie's "Silver Springs".
I'm looking @ this album hanging on my wall as we listen....
This album was always playing in our college dorm. Such great memories!
They wrote songs about how much they hated each other and then made the others sing backup vocals. “Packing up, shacking ups all you want to do” is some cold blooded stuff to sing about your ex-girlfriend standing 3 feet away from you, waiting to come in on the chorus. 😂
Lindsey was singing this. Stevie and Christine were on the chorus.
My favorite Fleetwood Mac song.
One of my top 5 of all time
That's what makes Fleetwood Mac so amazing - so many vocal sounds from this group because they all contribute. Try You Make Loving Fun next, that's got Christine on lead vocals and an amazing bassline. Also I don't think you've listened to Dire Straits yet but I think you'd like some Mark Knopfler examples of amazing guitar solos.
I just replied on another comment about Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits as being one of the few 'finger-pickers" playing lead.
The year is 80s ish. I am floating around on Duck Lake in my 19.5 foot Sea Ray 🥰
All downhill from there was it?
@@Greg-io1ip
Not sure what you meant ?
The guy is singing thats Lindsay on lead vocals
The bass line in the chorus is genius. Weaving in and around the vocal line. John MacVie.
OMG...yes!! Adds such a BOUNCE to the whole tune. John McVie is SOLID throughout Fleetwood Mac's discography, but barely gets a mention---except for 'The Chain'.
Don't forget the Bass and those Drums!
A gentleman is singing this one win big
Beautiful bass line!❤
Lindsey is singing lead, and the song is a direct message to Stevie who is singing backup. She hated the line "shacking up's all you wanna do" and would intentionally screw it up when they played this live.
You guys are so cute when you go sideways, you know kinda real. 😅
🙏🍁
Look at the Album cover on the video. It shows the album art and the Song names that were on that particular 45 rpm single when it was released. "Go Your own Way" is the B SIDE of "The Chain". THE B-SIDE!!!! They had a huge hit with A B-SIDE!!!!
Killer bass line !
You guys are really playing some great classics and bangers, keep it up. Love the A's and Dodgers baseball caps your wearing, one team in last place (A's) and the other in first place LA).
It has a folk sound to it, I like it!
There are times Christine and Lindsey vocals are impossible to tell apart.
True
Lindsey Buckingham singing Lead, and playing Lead 🎸 GUITAR
Stevie Nicks is singing Back up. I Love the LEAD GUITAR AND THE BASS.
I am so impressed at your sense of musical adventurousness with your choice of songs. This is a great one with a great band. No matter how many times you hear this song, you always feel strong feelings in reaction to it.
I can’t believe you thought that was Stevie with a deep voice! 😆 Keep on keepin’ on fellas.
That's Lindsay Buckingham on lead vocals.
Who ever writes the songs sings it. Lindsey in this case. Three lead vocalists
Suggestion: Check out the live concert " the dance" ... Lindsey Buckingham . Big Love or I'm so afraid. Top 10 guitarists all-time in my book !
Lidsey Buckingham sings this one. Writes a bunch. Look him up. Low key mad talented.
A song DRUM driven. Love this one . A time when music & the artists reached the zenith and this encompasses so many genre's of that era
Mick Fleetwood is very underrated as a drummer. Every nuance of his playing has purpose and really adds life to their songs ❤
You should do a live version of a couple of their songs. 3 singers and my favorite who just passed away was Christine McVie. They were one of the best bands in the world around this time and this album has nothing but hit songs.
Suggest you guys watch the documentary “Sound City”. It will give you a lot of insight on Fleetwood Mac and other great bands in the 70’s and beyond who recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in LA.
One of the greatest American bands. Period. Their use of tight harmonies on the chorus is a signature sound that's similar to a few great bands before them: CSN&Y and Chicago. A true banger!
One of my all time favorite songs. In all my playlists and I never get sick of listening to it.
Great Lindsey solo in the outro....
That’s Lindsey Buckingham he’s the lead guitarist and a great singer.Stevie and Christine in the background .best band in the 70’s
I bought this LP when it came out. Still a big favorite.
My aunt Opal gave it to me as a Christmas present, 1977 (i was 8). Yeah, I had a very cool hippie aunt...
Interesting what you were saying about the drums thank you
Fleetwood Mack at the height of their powers. Awsome!
John McVie's bass is sick!!
His first solo on this is superb. He plays a phrase. He plays a different phrase. He repeats the first phrase, double tracked. Then, the payoff. That payoff is one of the best ever recorded by any guitarist.
Lindsay Buckingham was by far my favourite member of Fleetwood Mac. Love his song writing and voice. ❤️
This album was a monster! One of the biggest sellers of all time. Every song is excellent!
They all sing not just Stevie
Lindsay Buckingham is an amazing singer. His performance of Oh Well solo is mind boggling.
John McVie and Mick Fleetwood don't sing.
On top of all the accolades this group earns, the drummer is fantastic.
The singer is Lindsey Buckingham the male guitarist ;)
Listen to “The Chain” on this same album. They always opened their concerts with it.
The intro vocal is heavier than Stevie Nicks, because that’s Lindsay Buckingham singing that part. Stevie Nicks and Christie McVie sing the backing part.
Check out a live version of Lindsey performing Big Love. Before I saw him play it live, I thought there were at least 2 guitars, but it was just him. Dude is definitely an underrated guitarist like others are commenting.
Nice guys. Thought the same thing till I seen Lynsey do it live
I was never really a Fleetwood Mac fan, but certain songs are undeniably just great songs regardless of genre or taste. This is one of them.
