It’s got a shot. My 18 year old LOVES them and it was largely by his own discovery, even though he grew up hearing them among all the other songs and bands we played in the car.
As long and as many time as I have listened to Sara since 1979 it is the bass heartbeat that gets me every time. It's as if this song is alive and has a life of it's own. With an angel singing the story. "When you build your house then call me home". No truer words.

I swear-this video is like a time machine back to the rehearsal of perhaps the most magnetically talented group of musicians in the history of humankind...
I get that you have romanticized feelings attached to this from your youth. However, you simply cannot compare the multi-instrumental virtuosity of certain musicians like Prince to a band like this, as talented as they are. It just sounds ignorant and silly. There is no denying that Fleetwood Mac is original, talented, and innovative. Each of them did what they did VERY WELL, but they are hardly virtuosos or proficient on 5,6 7 instruments much less more than 20 instruments. There are STELLAR musicians who play every single instrument on their own records, write the lyrics, arrange the songs, and they have to HIRE people to go on tour with the to play the album live... Tom Scholz Prince Trent Reznor Heck, Tom Scholz BUILT every single recording study every Boston album was ever recorded in and in his own homes, no less. He wrote and played EVERYTHING HIMSELF and hired the vocalist to sing it on the recordings where he played every instrument. Prince could play 21 instruments very well, and is considered the greatest guitar player by Eric Clapton (and many other guitarists). I can't even begin to explain how good Trent Reznor is, but he's such an accomplished composer and arranger that he has been hired to do the soundtrack of several movies. He is also a MULTI instrumentalist, writing ALL of his own lyrics, all of his own arrangements, and playing all of the instruments on his recordings. Fleetwood Mac is good at what each of them do. Christie McVie was the most talented of all of them because she was RAISED as a musician from early childhood. There is no denying that Fleetwood Mac was so very original...so cool...and truly unique (and I rarely use the word unique). They are far from the best band ever.
@@le_th_ And there are thousands of classical/jazz musicians who are technically miles ahead of Prince and all the others you mentioned if you want to go down that road.
PRINCE multi instrumentaliste, donc...quel intérêt ..allait t' il jouer de 21 instruments ..en même temps ! Lindsay Buckingham n'a jamais eu la prétention d'être le meilleur guitariste du monde ..mais je préfére sa " présence scénique " qu'à celle d'Eric Clapton ( trop statique ) ou celle de PRINCE ( trop surfaite à mon goût ) J'ai vu plusieurs fois Mike Olfied ( multi instrumentalisé ) sur scène..lui aussi avait avec lui beaucoup de musiciens Christine Mac Vie était " musicienne " Ok " mais avec elle il y avait John Mac Vie ( basse ), Mick Fleetwood ( batterie ) et Lindsay Buckingham ,( guitare ) Une seule était , musicalement parlant " une quiche " : Stevie Nicks..sauvée par un tambourin Cette " faiblesse musicale " vaudra de la part de Lindsay Buckingham. ..un " coup de gueule " vis a vis de Mick Fleetwood et John Mac Vie pour l'intégrer dans " le band " ( 1974 ) " Fleetwood Mac ce sera avec moi + Stevie " ..ou personne J'avoue que les 2 autres artistes que vous citez..sont 2 inconnus pour moi 🤔🤔🤔
Mick’s use of the brushes on this song was pure genius to me. Lindsey’s guitar flowing so effortlessly and just intertwining w/ Stevie’s voice, Christine’s keyboards and John’s bass line holding down the bottom end. I wonder if they had any idea how iconic they were or would be?
5 years later im commenting on you. better late then never! yes it never gets heavy but just keeps building. Especially when its live. Dude is playing with brushes on the drums and were talking about a build up. Thanks Stevie N.
Every time I hear this song or watch the video I’m taken back to a time when music was magical, pure, lyrical, musically majestic! The vocals, rhythmic drum beats from Mick, Christie McVie magical piano & Lindsey’s guitar rifts with the voice of Stevie Nicks puts you in a moment where you close your eyes and you feel transported into mystical magical classic song 💜🎵💙🎵💜🎵💙🎵💜🎵💙🎵
Wait...are you sure Sara wasn't a single? I'm pretty sure my friend had it on a 45 when I was a little kid. I mean, they played it on the radio CONSTANTLY when I was in elementary school.
Out of all Ms Nick's great performances, this has to be the best, in my opinion. There's something (even more than usual) stunning about her hair, outfit, demeanor...
Stevie Nicks is the ultimate rock star. Her beauty, her astonishing voice, her amazing, cryptic lyrics; that slightly kooky post-hippie mysticism combined with a refreshing girl-next-door directness. Had I been a young man in the '70s, I have no doubt that I would have been unhealthily obsessed with her.
Je l'avoue : ( il y a prescription maintenant ) Été 1977, j'avais 18 ans, résident a la Cité Universitaire Corisande Dandoin de Pau ( 64 ) Je découvre, par hasard , le " RUMOURS TOUR 77 ".. double coup de foudre : musical et amoureux de la belle Stevie Nicks 🤗🤗🤗🤗
LaVidaLocaHomie wouldn't we all give anything if not everything to step back to those great times, ah but now they ate just memories for us, so we need to remember those at to what and where they all brought us. For me it was to end up meeting the love of my life and running off and getting married to her and having and raising three great kids with her, so to me those were some of my best times that yes I can't go back to but will always be that wonderful memory in my mind.
@@pvmy105 Cela doit être un souvenir incroyable d'avoir entendu Fleetwood Mac jouer Tusk en plein cœur de Paris. Je ne peux qu'imaginer à quoi ressemblerait Sara si Stevie chantait Sara en français. Je pense que mon cœur s'arrêterait.
One of my favorite songs. Watching this video for the first time. This rehearsal was beautiful, just majical, her voice singing the words expressed such painful emotions makes me cry. Really Listening to the instruments dance with her voice here. Just a perfect made song with the intro and music leading to start of song. Poetry, love,excitement, sadness - this song somehow I imagine a choir singing “ahhh” when she sings undoing the laces , which is my fav part , makes that song soar
Pues yo creo que todos tienen su mérito por igual. Tanto Stevie como Jhon. Lindsay. Mick y CHRISTINE se compaginan, se mezclan y hacen una magia favulosa
It's amazing how she's slightly an afterthought when she wrote most of the bands hits. Her voice, playing, writing, and professionalism were the perfect counterbalance to the two wild cards in the band. They were so good together, and I'm including that killer rhythm section who just so happen to be the name of the band lol.
I have been listening this song since the day it first came out in the radio and l have never stopped and I never will because is hauntingly beautiful ❤❤❤
When, after Rumours, I've bought Tusk in 79 ( what a Great eclectic YEAR ! ) I didn't Know I'd be principally Listening to One Song.....! And Which Song ! I didn't know what was the Story behind it, but had guessed it was sad....Now I know, just seen it in the Comments ...................I really love the contrast between the Half-Speed beat, that never change until the end, and Stevie Particular, Beautiful & Nasal Voice, which seems to be floating in the air....
Stevie got pregnant by Don Henley ( singer for the Eagles) She had to have an abortion and its very sad. She's singing about all she "ever wanted, no sorrowful, sorrow"

She walks over to Lindseys mic at the end then walks off even today during this song. It looks like here she was just looking for Lindsey ...okay then I'll sing it for him....then goes and looks for him. This song is pure art.

This song takes me not only back to a little girl but multiple stages of my life. Fleetwood mac has been the soundtrack to many stages of my life. Truly the best musicians ever. Every record makes me melt yet gives me chills.
I was in high school when this came out. I remember how crazy layered & lush it was and just TOTALLY unexpected from Fleetwood Mac! I was addicted to this song from first listen, and still am today! I saw them back then, GREAT show. Then saw them again Burnett...and Vito I think. Nowhere near as good. Then we waited backstage for a LONG time. It was the final show of the tour. The members all came out singly. By the time they left it was really late & there were like 7-8 people left. John McVie was quietly polite & friendly. Fleetwood was like Rodney Dangefield LOL! ENDLESS one liners as he came to the fence to talk to us then wishing us all a "Happy Christmas". Stevie Nicks was HIDEOUS! A small handful of us, and she covered her head and ran for her limo, boytoy in tow. The lady cop there had some hilarious observations of her LOL! We all just thought her a.."B-Word"...at best, ESPECIALLY when her boy toy re-emerged with a concert guide she's signed, offering it for like 80 bucks! Yeah, literally, people told him to fuck off LOL! FINALLY CHRISTINE MCVIE came! She was like your aunt or something...TOTAL SWEETHEART! She looked shocked, pulled her coat around her & came up to the fence. "WHAT are you all doing?! It's horribly cold out here, what's wrong with you? You're all going to go home, get sick, and I'll feel simply AWFUL!!" Here she LITERALLY stamped her foot at us. "Now go home! God bless you all and thank you so much for coming out tonight my loves...But GO HOME RIGHT THIS INSTANT! Go drink some cocoa and warm up!" Christine's always held a special place in my heart since!
Christine McVie is the central glue to so much of Fleetwood Mac and Sara is a prime example. She lays down an intro arpeggio on piano followed by tasteful chord progressions which complements the reflective moody lyrics Stevie is pouring out even in this early rehearsal session.
kings17court in an interview stevie said that she doesn’t get tired of singing her songs such as Sara and Rhiannon because she doesn’t really know their complete story and so each time it’s like the songs brand new and she’s learning more about them. So no she doesn’t get sick of performing them which is great
Listen to their concerts...Never the same. They would change who sang with who, changed dominance of instruments and played with their voices. I do have my favorite performances ...Usually has Lindsey in it...But Joe brought out the best of Gold Dust woman.
My love since I first saw her on Saturday Night Special in 1976 I believe. I was only 10 years old, but I already knew that there was something about her that made me feel butterflies in my belly.

A travers votre texte, on sent que le Souvenir du concert est très fort, malgré sa date....! C'était leur Grande Epoque, avec Rumours & Tusk; J'imagine bien que cette soirée a du être exceptionnelle !!
hello thanks for the video i personally like this version i like the slower way this absolutley beautiful song is done and i really love the way chris does the ahaaa part to me that just adds so much emotion to this song ! this song really is a true piece of art
I guess when Stevie Nicks and Don Henley were dating in the 70s she got pregnant. Don Henley said in an interview that she had an abortion. She recently stated that indeed she had an abortion. She wanted the baby but that was when Fleetwood Mac were getting really big and she felt that she couldn't have that type of career and raise a child at that time. She said she was doing a lot of drugs as well. She said if that baby was a girl she would have named her Sara. The song was a tribute to her baby.
"Poet, priest of nothing..." "Has anybody ever written anything for you"?-Stevie Nicks, from her 1980 Belladonna Album...these sentiments, including those in this song, " Sara, you are the poet in my heart. Never change and never stop" should run concurrently.
Christine Mac Vie, sur la chanson " Tusk " abandonnait , lààchement, ses " Keyboards "..pour nous mettre en P.L.S en jouant de ..l'accordéon !! Vu en" live " sur le " TUSK TOUR " ( 1980 ) et sur le " MIRAGE TOUR""( 1983 ) 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Peut -être un peu trop " intimiste " ? Je préffére " MIRAGE TOUR " , plus " dynamique " et plus " joyeuse " " RUMOURS TOUR " un peu trop " rock" 🎤🎧🎚️👠🎸🎸
Amazing rehearsal, almost perfect for the concert! The only part to change was the ending, sort of sudden and quiet. Her look is also amazing, clearly with innocent and undrugged. She should have appeared more with this hair style.
Mateus.Matthew She was heavily in the throes of drug addiction to cocaine at the time she did this. She might have had an innocent look, but it wasn't about being undrugged.
I don’t care what people say, I don’t care that other Mac songs have a higher profile in their repertoire, I don’t care that the band itself has often dropped this gem from their setlists: to me, « Sara » is the band’s ultimate masterpiece.
Her name was Katie but this song brought the tears.
Christine McVie's playing is like a soft pillow that supports the dreamy voice of Nicks. This band was so damn good
I know this comment is sort of older but I thought this was a really good description
Listen to Lindsey’s guitar wrap around her lyrics so effortlessly, almost like another voice. Musical genius.
Lindsey is a genius talent too!
It sounds like he plays it a little differently on some other live clips I've seen on here. 🤷🏻♂️
I'm getting goosebumps from his guitar on this version.

right after 02:00 "undoing" "undoing" "the laces" "the laces", she did a hand motion resembling undoing something then lifts up her dress to pull up her left stocking
Great !!! Love how she dance !!😀❤️❤️💖💖💖
Si vous aimez la voir danser, vous aimerez son interprétation dans: "Angel "- St Louis du Missouri octobre 79 ( " Quand Stevie Nicks" s'éclate ".. " la chanson " bonheur " )
She walks over to Lindseys mic at the end then walks off even today during this song. It looks like here she was just looking for Lindsey ...okay then I'll sing it for him....then goes and looks for him. This song is pure art.
Oddly enough this song is partially about Sara, partially about Don Henley. This is one of the very few not written for Lindsey.
Lynnie Shaw Sara is partly about a baby that was never born a partly about her bff that dies , she said in an interview .
"Still looking 4 LINDSEY" (of course she is) her voice is haunting him, just like she said
just before they opened Tusk tour in my hometown of Pocatello Idaho. Stevie was an angel no matter what so many people said of her that night
WHAT?! IDAHO?!?!?! I’m from Idaho 😭😭 I was 20 years and a few days too late...
Love her live singing love this woman also her pal Christine mc vie who died 5days ago on December 2022 , rest in peace Christine your sadly missed by your ling time friends band mates and other people around the world, God bless you amen 🌠🌼💙🐦🌷💕🌟🌈☀️☮️☯️✝️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🌷🌷🌠🌈☀️🌟
This song takes me not only back to a little girl but multiple stages of my life. Fleetwood mac has been the soundtrack to many stages of my life. Truly the best musicians ever. Every record makes me melt yet gives me chills.
Stevie Nicks appears in the ranking of the best female voices of all time, and today in August of this 2019 this remains unchanged.
Very interesting vocal tone for sure.
If she wasn't crying on the outside, then she was crying in the inside.
I was in high school when this came out. I remember how crazy layered & lush it was and just TOTALLY unexpected from Fleetwood Mac! I was addicted to this song from first listen, and still am today! I saw them back then, GREAT show. Then saw them again Burnett...and Vito I think. Nowhere near as good. Then we waited backstage for a LONG time. It was the final show of the tour. The members all came out singly. By the time they left it was really late & there were like 7-8 people left. John McVie was quietly polite & friendly. Fleetwood was like Rodney Dangefield LOL! ENDLESS one liners as he came to the fence to talk to us then wishing us all a "Happy Christmas". Stevie Nicks was HIDEOUS! A small handful of us, and she covered her head and ran for her limo, boytoy in tow. The lady cop there had some hilarious observations of her LOL! We all just thought her a.."B-Word"...at best, ESPECIALLY when her boy toy re-emerged with a concert guide she's signed, offering it for like 80 bucks! Yeah, literally, people told him to fuck off LOL! FINALLY CHRISTINE MCVIE came! She was like your aunt or something...TOTAL SWEETHEART! She looked shocked, pulled her coat around her & came up to the fence. "WHAT are you all doing?! It's horribly cold out here, what's wrong with you? You're all going to go home, get sick, and I'll feel simply AWFUL!!" Here she LITERALLY stamped her foot at us. "Now go home! God bless you all and thank you so much for coming out tonight my loves...But GO HOME RIGHT THIS INSTANT! Go drink some cocoa and warm up!" Christine's always held a special place in my heart since!
Awesome, story thanks for sharing it! Exactly, how I would expect them to be.
Did Lindsey come outside ?
I graduated in 78 thank you for sharing that story I got to see them one time in concert will never forget it.... and it was magical and authentic
Me too - graduated '79; but never got to see them until 2005 without Christine:(
I think Stevie was going through a LOT of the drugs and stuff. That sucks she wasn’t very nice:( I met her in 2013, she was the sweetest thing!
Christine McVie is the central glue to so much of Fleetwood Mac and Sara is a prime example. She lays down an intro arpeggio on piano followed by tasteful chord progressions which complements the reflective moody lyrics Stevie is pouring out even in this early rehearsal session.
Lindsey Buckingham arranged all their music. Facts matters.
VOICE OF THE ANGEL
Has anyone talked about how she always sings the very last line in Lindsay's mic?
💔💔💔 rip Christine such an inspirational talent. Sing sweetly with the angels sweet ‘Songbird’ 💔💔💔😔
" Songbird " le + fabuleux piano/voix jamais composé
la chanson fait partie de " l'usine à tubes " RUMOURS " ( 1977 )
Artists that are relevant for decades must get so sick of performing their songs for the 1000th time.
kings17court in an interview stevie said that she doesn’t get tired of singing her songs such as Sara and Rhiannon because she doesn’t really know their complete story and so each time it’s like the songs brand new and she’s learning more about them. So no she doesn’t get sick of performing them which is great
Listen to their concerts...Never the same. They would change who sang with who, changed dominance of instruments and played with their voices. I do have my favorite performances ...Usually has Lindsey in it...But Joe brought out the best of Gold Dust woman.
My love since I first saw her on Saturday Night Special in 1976 I believe. I was only 10 years old, but I already knew that there was something about her that made me feel butterflies in my belly.
I saw that! I was 8 years old, and I remember being mesmerized. My 16 year old sister had the album, and I loved it.
Stevie’s voice was still in great shape and this is just a perfect version of this song. Still The Queen in 2022 🕊🎩✨🌙👢🖤
Not often is Chris stage left..
I know, right? Totally threw me off.
Les trois leaders vocaux de Fleetwood Mac avaient chacun sa " chanson "
" Go your Own Way" pour Lindsay Buckingham
" Songbird " pour Christine Mc Vie "
" Sara " pour Stevie Nicks
Je faisais partie des 5 000 spectateurs:
Palais des Sports de Paris
Le 14 juin..1980 !
Unique date " francaise " du " TUSK TOUR "
Souvenir d'une Stevie completement" craquante " ( j'avais 20 ans )
" Sara " , TOP 3 dans ma playlist " Fleetwood Mac "
🤗🤗🤗😯
A travers votre texte, on sent que le Souvenir du concert est très fort, malgré sa date....! C'était leur Grande Epoque, avec Rumours & Tusk; J'imagine bien que cette soirée a du être exceptionnelle !!
hello thanks for the video i personally like this version i like the slower way this absolutley beautiful song is done and i really love the way chris does the ahaaa part to me that just adds so much emotion to this song ! this song really is a true piece of art
To think they could "throw" this version away in rehearsal, knowing there was another level they might be able to reach. Amazing.
She sings it so beautiful after all these years different every time- but knowing the true meaning of the song makes me cry every time.
"There's a heartbeat and it never really died" 💔
Could you explain to me please the real true meaning of this song? I love this song but I feel there is a particular meaning...thanks if you please.
I guess when Stevie Nicks and Don Henley were dating in the 70s she got pregnant. Don Henley said in an interview that she had an abortion. She recently stated that indeed she had an abortion. She wanted the baby but that was when Fleetwood Mac were getting really big and she felt that she couldn't have that type of career and raise a child at that time. She said she was doing a lot of drugs as well. She said if that baby was a girl she would have named her Sara. The song was a tribute to her baby.
Thank you very much . Kind person .
Makes me sad too knowing the story behind this beautiful song, one of my favorites
"Poet, priest of nothing..."
"Has anybody ever written anything for you"?-Stevie Nicks, from her 1980 Belladonna Album...these sentiments, including those in this song, " Sara, you are the poet in my heart. Never change and never stop" should run concurrently.
This song is absolutely gorgeous and maybe my fave from them! Love you guys always!
This makes me love "Sara" even more!
"You're the Poet in my Heart..."
beautiful
Stevie's a one off ❤
Master musicians
Incredible. Great find!
Brits + Americans = Magic.
I love Stevie and her music. I believe Christine is an awesome keyboard player. And she has some awesome outfits as well.
Christine Mac Vie, sur la chanson " Tusk " abandonnait , lààchement, ses " Keyboards "..pour nous mettre en P.L.S en jouant de ..l'accordéon !!
Vu en" live " sur le " TUSK TOUR " ( 1980 ) et sur le " MIRAGE TOUR""( 1983 )
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Damn! Is this a rehearsal?? It's as good as a recording!!
We'll get older but somehow she'll be timeless. Very unique, there will be no more Stevie Nicks.
Christine, mon coeur saigne de t'avoir perdu !
Heureusement, Steevie est un doux garrot sur ma plaie !
Je vous aime !
I miss these days so much.
Haunting.... Beautiful
This rehearsal is my favorite rendition////Forever continuous loop....
Wow I'm young again this is the fountain of youth.
the Tusk tour brings back great memories.
Peut -être un peu trop " intimiste " ?
Je préffére " MIRAGE TOUR " , plus " dynamique " et plus " joyeuse "
" RUMOURS TOUR " un peu trop " rock"
🎤🎧🎚️👠🎸🎸
a total gem! thank you!!!!!!
Said Sara, you’re the poet In my heart never change, never stop.
Stevie’s vibrato is killer💖✨
....faz alguns meses que estou viciado nesse arranjo,harmonia perfeita...
Moi en termes de " durée " ..je dois être " bénéficiaire d'une " carte vermeil "
" Totale adhésion depuis..1979 ! ( sortie de l'album " TUSK ")
🎸🎸🎤🎤
John & Mick just keep it solid. Every song is locked in.
Não canso de ouvir essa música, me faz muito bem, pura perfeição...🎸🎹🎤🎶🦅❣
"When you build your house, then call me...Within the wings of a storm..."
Yes, I've always been a fan, you've played a part in my being, with your music. Thankyou.
This is there best song every
Did Stevie left the stage right after Lindesy left?
Perhaps she waa lookong where he went? Interesting ee
Ask me and I'll be there my queen take me with you the most beautiful woman on earth you beautiful GOOD witch my queen
Gorgeous harmonies!
Amazing rehearsal, almost perfect for the concert! The only part to change was the ending, sort of sudden and quiet. Her look is also amazing, clearly with innocent and undrugged. She should have appeared more with this hair style.
Mateus.Matthew She was heavily in the throes of drug addiction to cocaine at the time she did this. She might have had an innocent look, but it wasn't about being undrugged.
