I'll have to check that out... but I was absolutely enchanted by the radio version of this song back in 1976... I fell hard for my first Big Love with this song, in particular, playing in the background during that magical time.
🤗 Yes!! "Rhiannon" live on Midnight Special 1976 is a MUST on a Fleetwood Mac journey. The song/studio track is epic and beautiful, but Stevie is on another level in that performance... absolutey ethereal!! You feel it in your bones!!👊🥰
Taylor Swift writes songs about her Ex's. Stevie Nicks wrote songs about her lover and then made him sing and play the song on stage as she sang it to him. Our generations are not the same.
The Chain is one of their most powerful songs. I saw her 2 years ago in Detroit. She was the only member NOT invited into the band. Lindsay said if you get me, you get Stevie too. Today I think she is the only one still out there performing so good for her.
Lindsey BUckingham is working on a solo album and had to cancel his last fall tour because he got really sick from long covid. Lidnsey still makes GREAT solo albums. Stevie had him THROWN out of the band a few years ago even though HE got her in. She's an egotiscial witch now.
You should recognize Stevie Nicks here from your reaction to “Edge of Seventeen “ a few days ago. Fleetwood Mac, in their most popular incarnation, consisted of drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie (hence “Fleetwood Mac”), pianist Christine McVie (married to John for a while), guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks.
I was thinking the same thing. I mean she is a lot younger in Gypsy but she looks very much the same. I was waiting for him to recognize but he didn't. I was like come on its just been a few days. He must of just posted them close together but didn't film them close together because I just don't see how he didn't recognize Stevie Nicks from a few days ago🤔
I thought that too - but it's completely possible he recorded this one before recording edge. Just released publicly out of order. Sometimes due to editing needs or clearing claims they have to do that.

These lyrics “So I'm back to the velvet underground Back to the floor that I love To a room with some lace and paper flowers” are describing an actual store where she lived that all the poor music artists went to buy clothes. She explained in concert when we saw Fleetwood Mac a few years back.
She didn't live there but window shopped at the then famous Velvet Underground. The room with some lace & paper flowers was her apt with Buckingham with their mattress on the floor.
Stevie is both a storyteller and a poet. Having one of those gifts is rare, having both is what makes her so unique. Her lyrics occasionally have meanings she isn't even aware of - they're Goddess-inspired.
Originally an American-British rock band formed in London members were Peter Green,Mick Fleetwood,Jeremy Spencer,Bob Brunning,John McVie, and Danny Kirwan. Formed 1967,Green left in 1970,John’s wife Christine vocalist and keyboardist who had collaborated with the band multiple times officially joined in 1970.Spencer left 1971,Bob Welch joined in 72,and Kirwan was fired,then vocalist Dave Walker joined but left a year later.1974 Lindsey Buckingham was asked to replace Walker,he said he would if his girlfriend Stevie Nicks could come also,the band said that they would have to talk to their girl Christine first,fortunately she and Stevie became friends immediately. The 1974-1987 line up is the most famous and successful, Mick Fleetwood,John McVie,Christine McVie,Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Lindsey,Stevie, and Christine who passed in 2022 were the main vocalists and songwriters

Stevie's father's was the vice president of Greyhound Bus, she lived a good life as did her other band member boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham, who met her in the same high school school in California. Gypsy may have been inspired by her experience of moving a lot as a child because of her father's work.
The singer is Stevie Nicks! You just saw her in "Edge of Seventeen"! She also wrote and sang "Dreams" and a whole lot of other Fleetwood Mac material ("The Chain," "Rhiannon," etc.). But there were 4 other member of the group (Mick Fleetwood, John MacVie, Christine MacVie, and Lindsey Buckingham) in its last iteration (the one that made hit records), and they all wrote songs. They have a very deep catalog, and thus far, you've only listened to Stevie Nicks' contributions.
Stevie Nicks (lead singer/songwriter) said the song refers to the time before she was famous - when she had a mattress on the floor with Lindsey Buckingham (lead singer, songwriter, guitarist, arranger, producer) when they were still a struggling musical couple/duo before joining Fleetwood Mac. That when she's feeling overwhelmed she takes her mattress off her bed to feel grounded. FM started as a blues band in 1967 with Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer, Mick Fleetwood & John Mcvie - the later two being who Peter named the band for - knowing he wouldn't stay long. There was a lot of turnover (the two most notable members being Danny Kirwan & Bob Welch) until Buckingham & Nicks joined NYE 1974 - when FM became their most famous super star iteration along with Fleetwood (drums, percussion), John McVie (bass) and Christine McVie (lead singer/songwriter/keyboardist) - referred to as the Rumours 5. Their biggest selling album Rumours (Grammy 1977 album of the year) is still on the Billboard charts and according to CSPC the 4th biggest selling album of all time. Though they had 5 other multi platinum albums.
I heard he named it after the other two because he didn't want to be the centre of attention and he wanted both to join. Not that he wasn't going to be with them long (couldn't predict the mental illness). McVie originally didn't join, he's the 2nd bassist they had.
the chain, gold dust woman, song bird, go your own way are all great by them well pretty much all of their stuff I like. oh and paper doll, landslide etc LOL
The room she sings about "to a room with some lace and paper flowers"..... In an interview she said she and Lindsay were living in a flea bag place. Matress on the floor. She'd decorated the bedroom with those lace shawls she'd become famous for and big paper flowers she'd made from tissue paper. She was working usually two jobs at a time while Lindsay was gigging and writing music. She basically supported both of them ***Fast forward 2-3 yrs. He gets invited to join FM. He tells McVie and Fleetwood only if Stevie can join, too. They said yes without meeting her*** So begins the magic of FleetwoodMac. LB knew how talented SN was. Also, he repaid her support for all those years
Some of that is true - most of it is Stevie re writing history and growing self mythologizing. About their time in L.A. - the most recent interview I read about it she was up to 3 jobs for 4 years - while "Mr Useless" laid around smoking pot all day. They weren't even in LA for a full 3 years before joining FM. But if you've read her earlier stories - outside of music she only worked part time for a few months in 1974 (after Polydor dropped them) with a few odd jobs before that for extra cash - while still getting money from her parents. In 1972 they moved out to LA on the bulk of Lindsey's 10k inheritance from an aunt and a dozen or so demos they recorded at his father's Coffee Plant (on equipment he bought with part of the inheritance) when he was ill for a year and had moved back home. They got their record deal in 3-6 months for 30k with 5k each going to Lindsey & Stevie. To put that money in perspective - rent in LA then was about $100-125 a month. For extra money they both did odd jobs and Lindsey did session work while also working on their music and later their album as arranger & music director as well as a musician, singer/songwriter. Stevie wrote to her Mom she was bored in the studio with little to do (nothing much has changed) Mr Useless worked far more on their music than she did but always split it 50/50 even when they first entered FM. He'd been making $400 a week on the road with Don Everly in late 1974 and FM first offered them $400 and it was split $200 each. Lindsey believed they could make it as a duo (and considering all their solo songs on the White Album were BN songs he was probably right) but Stevie was tired of struggling and jealous she didn't get to go out on the road (and had made that deal with her father of going back to school in 6 months) - so he said yes if Stevie could also join. He did it because he loved her and he'd always supported her music & believed in their partnership - not because he owed her anything.
Talk about a rabbit hole. Fleetwood Mac will take you through an entire warren. Each member has had legendary solo careers and careers in other bands. These dreams is Heart not the Mac
"Gypsy" was written by Stevie Nicks, for her best friend Robin who died of leukemia 5 days after she gave birth to her son Matthew. Stevie had known Robin since she was 14. The video for "Gypsy" is my all time favorite. I thought Stevie {which by the way is short for Stephanie}, was absolutely beautiful in it. Especially at the end in the pink setting. She has been practicing ballet since a very young age. That's some of what she's doing in the beginning of the video...
@@HeyItsCasser Not the real story. She wrote Gypsy in 78/79 intended for her solo album - years before Robin was diagnosed. They couldn't make it work so she brought it to FM in 1981 for Mirage. Robin died in Oct 1982. She didn't donate money from it - she instead married the widowerer for 3 months to in her words "get her hands on that baby" then lost contact with Matthew when they split until he was an adult when she paid for his college.
Hi BP. Yes, Fleetwood Mac is worth your time. All 5 band members are very talented. 3 of them have taken lead vocals, at one time or another. The 3 are all song writers. Stevie Nicks, (lead vocals), Linsey Buckingham (lead guitar, vocals), Christine McVie (piano, keyboards, other, vocals)., John McVie (bass, Christine's ex husband). Mick Fleetwood (drums, percussion). Stevie & Lindsey are ex bf/gf as well. Mick had quick affair with Stevie. Christine had an affair with someone affiliated with the band. Stevie & Lindsay were breaking up. Christine & John getting divorced. And, Mick splitting with his wife. All this turbulence lead to one of the best albums of all time. Rumors. Unbelievable emotions in that album. Many of the songs about the couples splitting up. Any song from that album is great. Dreams, The Chain, Go Your Own Way, Gold Dust Woman, Never Going Back Again, Don't Stop (very upbeat), You Make Loving Fun, Don't Want to Know, and Songbird. Some have said Rhiannon, live on Midnight Special 1976. (Yes! A must). You'll see why. Also for great guitar playing by Lindsey, I'm So Afraid and Big Love. They are great live. Any song. They had a terrific performance, live, in 1997. A reunion tour for new album The Dance. Search Fleetwood Mac the Dance, the show will come up. You can use that for many of these songs. They were ong their game that night. In fact, two more songs, from that show are a must. Landslide, & Silver Springs( check out the emotion pouring out of Stevie...she is singing about Lindsey, who is right next to her.). It's Incredible! 🙂
If you are going to do a live performance of Fleetwood Mac you MUST do "Rhinnon" it will blow you away. Stevie absolutely slays in her performance. Love to see this reaction as it is not only my favorite Fleetwood Mac song but also my favorite music video of all time! Thanks BP!❤
Lyrically, "Gypsy" recounts the narrator’s early adulthood; before joining the group, Nicks lived with Lindsey Buckingham, who would also join Fleetwood Mac. Nicks and Buckingham were musical and romantic partners; however, only their musical partnership has survived. At that earlier time they barely got by with the income from Nicks' work as a waitress and cleaning lady. They could not afford a bed frame, so they slept on a mattress directly on the floor. Nicks says the mattress was decorated in lace, with a vase and a flower at its side. Whenever she feels her famous life getting to her, she goes "back to her roots," and takes her mattress off the frame and puts it "back to the floor" and decorates it with "some lace, and paper flowers." On 31 March 2009, Nicks gave an interview to Entertainment Weekly discussing the inspiration for the song: "In the old days, before Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey [Buckingham] and I had no money, so we had a king-size mattress, but we just had it on the floor. I had old vintage coverlets on it, and even though we had no money it was still really pretty... Just that and a lamp on the floor, and that was it-there was a certain calmness about it. To this day, when I'm feeling cluttered, I will take my mattress off of my beautiful bed, wherever that may be, and put it outside my bedroom, with a table and a little lamp." On 25 March 2009, during a show in Montreal, Quebec on Fleetwood Mac's Unleashed Tour, Nicks gave a short history of the inspiration behind "Gypsy". She explained it was written sometime in 1978-1979, when the band had become "very famous, very fast". It was a song that brought her back to an earlier time, to an apartment in San Francisco where she had taken the mattress off her bed and put it on the floor. To contextualize, Nicks voiced the lyrics: "So I'm back, to the velvet underground. Back to the floor, that I love. To a room with some lace and paper flowers. Back to the gypsy that I was." Those are the words: 'So I'm back to the velvet underground'-which is a clothing store in downtown San Francisco, where Janis Joplin got her clothes, and Grace Slick from Jefferson Airplane. It was this little hole in the wall, amazing, beautiful stuff-'back to the floor that I love, to a room with some lace and paper flowers, back to the gypsy that I was.'" The second point of inspiration for the song is the message as a tribute to someone's passing. On 5 October 1982, Robin Snyder Anderson, Nicks' best friend, died of leukemia. So the song took on a new significance for her, and Nicks dedicated the song to her in future performances.
Their guitar player is an all time talent. Great singer too. You should check out him doing Big Love from their live video The Dance. He finger picks and it’s mind blowing. That video really shows it off.
this song written by stevie nicks tells of her yearning of her past before her success with fleetwood mac. "gypsy" represents though a more struggling time, she had more freedom ("...back to the gypsy...that i was...). the true beauty of this song is the gorgeous arrangement, musical flourishing (specifically the almost dancing-sounding embellishment of the guitars to the vocal) by the enormously gifted lindsey buckingham. this song would NEVER have sounded as magical without him ❤ fun fact: at the time this music video was the most expensive ever to make - over 1 MILLION dollars - in 1982.
When I saw her in concert she said this song was written about when she was just starting out in the music industry and she went to an unique hippie store and could buy anything she wanted and that’s when it clicked that she had made it. Love her and Fleetwood Mac.
Fleetwood Mac was an amazing band. I just saw Stevie Nick's and Billy Joel in concert a few months back and they both sound great and are in their 70's! She brought out some of her flowey outfits that she's kept through the years. Some from the '60's. Crazy! They put on a great concert at the US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. I think there were around 55,000 in attendance. 😊
Fleetwood Mac was originally a blues rock band formed by Peter Green in the mid sixties. Try the songs "Oh Well" and the melodic "Man of the World" among many others. Peter Green and various band members came and went until about 1974. During this transitional period, the band started becoming less blues, more pop rock. Check out songs like "Hypnotized" and "Sentimental Lady", again, among many other good songs. The core remaining members in 1974 were Mick Fleetwood (drums), John McVie (bass), and Christine McVie (keyboards, vocals). Mick Fleetwood was looking for a lead guitarist, and found Lindsey Buckingham. Lindsey refused to join the band unless they also hired his then-girlfriend "Stevie Nicks" as an additional vocalist. In a nutshell, the addition of Lindsey and Stevie led to superstardom for the band, especially following release of the album "Rumors" in 1977. Every track on it is a hit!!!
your comment is exactly right. And the first song you listed is a must listen to before you die song.. If you have never heard Oh Well at least once in your life then you miss out on the best opening lyrics ever written.
Gold Dust Woman, Rhiannon, Chains, Really anything off Rumors. Stevie Nicks is the Queen of 70's Rock. (With Annie Haslam of Renaissance right up their with her.) .
The band has evolved a lot over the years, going through a number of members before the Buckingham Nicks era (the best known era). Many great songs and are not fixed to one style some tracks are:- Oh Well, Albatross, Rhiannon, The Chain, Monday Morning, Tusk, You Make loving Fun, Oh Dianne, Dont' Stop, Big Love Many more great tracks in their catalogue
One of my favourite albums was Rumours, loved it, so many great songs, including some favs 'Gold Dust Woman', 'Don't Stop', 'The Chain', 'Go Your Own Way' and 'Second Hand News'. I also remember the early Fleetwood Mac from the 1960s with Peter Green, some great songs, including 'Albatross', 'The Green Manalishi' and 'Oh Well'.
This band truly is a gem, regardless of which era you delve into! During this era, there are 3 main songwriters who also take turns being the lead singer. 😁 Please do more!
Stevie Knicks all time favorite female singer. Love her voice. Fleetwood Mac one of the best concerts I have been to. Great reaction, keep them coming friend.
You just watched Stevie Nicks in Fleetwood Mac, She's also on her own! Stevie is short for Stephanie and what she would call herself as a little girl learning to talk....my name is Stevie
First female artist to be inducted into the Rocking Roll Hall of Fame twice. Once with Fleetwood Mac and the second time as a solo artist. She’s the real deal!!
They did a live concert in 1997 that featured a lot of the songs from their Rumours album. If you get a chance you should catch either Landslide or I Don't Want to Know. Their is a wonderful interaction between Stevie and her on again off again love Lindsay (lead guitar) Beautiful songs
The song Silver Springs from the Live performance during the 1997 The Dance tour which was played on the radio when I was in high is an absolute amazing live performance. The damn chemistry that Stevie and Lindsey had on that stage and playing off each others energy was simply fantastic. I highly recommend that video.
1973 my dad bought me an album, Buckingham Nicks the only album they made before joining Fleetwood Mack. I still have it to this day. She’s always been nothing but beauty & grace with a raspy voice that’s unbelievable.
Stevie Nicks wrote so many great songs for this band. She is such a poetic queen! 👸🏼 She wrote so many poems that she has turned into songs (such as this song). She said that she still has thousands of poems in her repertoire. A lot of her lyrics are very nodescriptive. She is my musical idol! I absolutely adore her. FM is my all time favorite classic rock band. So many great songs have been written between Stevie, Lindsey, and Christine! RIP Christine McVie 😢🕊️🎹 EDIT: Also, you mentioned her flexibility. She studied ballet as a young to teen girl and carried that with her all of her life.
I always feel the gypsy is the free spirited young person that you once were. Then you get older and become more responsible and restricted. It's looking back and catching a glimpse of that still alive in yourself.
This video with all the members in it highlights Stevie as the center of the story. It's difficult......no impossible.....not to fall in love with her even if you had never heard her before. But guess what? EVERYBODY loves Stevie.
I get such a kick out of Watching you react to the music I grew up with, the 60s were amazing. I was in high school at the time. Late 50’s 60’s and 70s I think we’re the best rock music. Thanks for the entertainment.
She’s talking about a particular period in her life when she lived with all the members of the Fleetwood Mac in a house. She slept on a mattress on the floor and she was really happy during that time. The song is her nostalgia of that happy “gypsy” time.
As you dive into Fleetwood Mac, you just have to do the live performance of Silver Springs! Amazing! The tension between Stevie and Lindsey is IN-TENSE. Talk about throwing daggers with your eyes! I love the song and the live performance, about makes me cry every time.
Fleetwood Mac will keep you busy for a couple years brother! 😂 Just the relationship dynamics between these 4 people is something else! Lindsey Buckingham was the creative engine and Stevie was a voice like an ANGEL. Well you'll see! Watch a few of the behind the music shows! There's doing cocaine and then there's what they did! 😆 🎉
Fleetwood Mac went thru a few interactions of band members. They started off as a British band (1967) and had several hits starting n the late 60's. In 1974 2 Americans joined the band, Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham. This is probably the best known iteration of the band thru the 70 and 80's. They had 25 top billboard hits produced 18 studio Album not including compilation and singles or solo albums . Second Hand News, Dreams, Rhiannon, Don t Stop, Go Your Own Way, Hypnotized The Chain, You Make Loving Fun, Green Manalishi, Monday morning, Gold Dust Woman, Silver Springs, Oh well, Albatross,
I actually had her pull up next to me when I lived in Scottsdale, Az. My car window was down and one of her songs was playing on the radio. I was singing along at full volume (I can't carry a tune in a bucket) and something made me look over to my left out the window and there she sat with a smile from ear to ear, giving me a thumbs up. Then the light turned green and her car turned left while I went straight. Most memorable moment of my life.
I love seeing you genuinely intrigued and enjoying certain songs that I've always enjoyed and known.. I love the fact that you're honest that you just never gave certain music a try because that's not what you thought you would like. But now you're opening yourself up to all this other music and enjoying it! That is awesome
He already did a Stevie video, and said when he punched in Stevie, Fleetwood Mac kept coming up. I figured after the Stevie video, hed recognize her in this one
The Velvet Underground was a storied shop in San Francisco, with another outlet in Santa Cruz, located in the now long gone Cooper House. I shoped in the Santa Cruz outlet. I got my tarot cards there. I can not begin to describe the ambiance or the curious collection of folks who could be found there at any random Saturday afternoon. I always smile when I hear this song.
When you listen to FM songs, like Tusk, The Chain, and Go Your Own Way, suggest you listen and watch the performances from the concert The Dance. Great performances.
From what I remember reading she wrote this song to include various memories from her past including a reference to her friend that had been diagnosed with Leukaemia and died shortly after the song was written. 😢
I think you'd really enjoy hearing "Rhiannon" live from 1976. Stevie Nicks has a way of enchanting and mesmerizing a person that's like no other.
yes !!! From the Midnight Special !!! OMG it is so out of control good !!!
Yes! I forgot about Rhiannon
I'll have to check that out... but I was absolutely enchanted by the radio version of this song back in 1976... I fell hard for my first Big Love with this song, in particular, playing in the background during that magical time.

True that

Go Your Own Way is a major hit for Fleetwood Mac.
Yes !
The Chain is one of their most powerful songs. I saw her 2 years ago in Detroit. She was the only member NOT invited into the band. Lindsay said if you get me, you get Stevie too. Today I think she is the only one still out there performing so good for her.
My favorite is Chains then Gold Dust Woman
Do the studio version.
My daughter and son-in-law went to see her Fall 2023. She sent me videos during the concert. 🤫 Stevie was amazing, as always!
WHAAT? You have that so wrong.

Yes. One of the best drummers of all time. Easy to overlook. But his drum arrangements are among the best
The live version of Silver Springs were she's singing and staring at Lindsey Buckingham giving him the evil eye it's epic.

Thank You 😃
Very well said 👏
Originally an all English band, the first American came along about 4 years later.
Stevie's father's was the vice president of Greyhound Bus, she lived a good life as did her other band member boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham, who met her in the same high school school in California. Gypsy may have been inspired by her experience of moving a lot as a child because of her father's work.
Not according to an interview she did.
The singer is Stevie Nicks! You just saw her in "Edge of Seventeen"! She also wrote and sang "Dreams" and a whole lot of other Fleetwood Mac material ("The Chain," "Rhiannon," etc.). But there were 4 other member of the group (Mick Fleetwood, John MacVie, Christine MacVie, and Lindsey Buckingham) in its last iteration (the one that made hit records), and they all wrote songs. They have a very deep catalog, and thus far, you've only listened to Stevie Nicks' contributions.
Stevie Nicks (lead singer/songwriter) said the song refers to the time before she was famous - when she had a mattress on the floor with Lindsey Buckingham (lead singer, songwriter, guitarist, arranger, producer) when they were still a struggling musical couple/duo before joining Fleetwood Mac. That when she's feeling overwhelmed she takes her mattress off her bed to feel grounded.

There was a lot of turnover (the two most notable members being Danny Kirwan & Bob Welch) until Buckingham & Nicks joined NYE 1974 - when FM became their most famous super star iteration along with Fleetwood (drums, percussion), John McVie (bass) and Christine McVie (lead singer/songwriter/keyboardist) - referred to as the Rumours 5.
Their biggest selling album Rumours (Grammy 1977 album of the year) is still on the Billboard charts and according to CSPC the 4th biggest selling album of all time. Though they had 5 other multi platinum albums.
Thanks Mr Wiki!
@@kbrewski1 🤣
I heard he named it after the other two because he didn't want to be the centre of attention and he wanted both to join. Not that he wasn't going to be with them long (couldn't predict the mental illness).
McVie originally didn't join, he's the 2nd bassist they had.
the chain, gold dust woman, song bird, go your own way are all great by them well pretty much all of their stuff I like. oh and paper doll, landslide etc LOL
I love this song. Stevie was amazing, and Lindsy Bu kingham produced this song amazingly. The video was stunningly good.
The room she sings about "to a room with some lace and paper flowers"..... In an interview she said she and Lindsay were living in a flea bag place. Matress on the floor. She'd decorated the bedroom with those lace shawls she'd become famous for and big paper flowers she'd made from tissue paper. She was working usually two jobs at a time while Lindsay was gigging and writing music. She basically supported both of them
***Fast forward 2-3 yrs. He gets invited to join FM. He tells McVie and Fleetwood only if Stevie can join, too. They said yes without meeting her*** So begins the magic of FleetwoodMac. LB knew how talented SN was. Also, he repaid her support for all those years
Some of that is true - most of it is Stevie re writing history and growing self mythologizing. About their time in L.A. - the most recent interview I read about it she was up to 3 jobs for 4 years - while "Mr Useless" laid around smoking pot all day. They weren't even in LA for a full 3 years before joining FM. But if you've read her earlier stories - outside of music she only worked part time for a few months in 1974 (after Polydor dropped them) with a few odd jobs before that for extra cash - while still getting money from her parents.
In 1972 they moved out to LA on the bulk of Lindsey's 10k inheritance from an aunt and a dozen or so demos they recorded at his father's Coffee Plant (on equipment he bought with part of the inheritance) when he was ill for a year and had moved back home. They got their record deal in 3-6 months for 30k with 5k each going to Lindsey & Stevie. To put that money in perspective - rent in LA then was about $100-125 a month. For extra money they both did odd jobs and Lindsey did session work while also working on their music and later their album as arranger & music director as well as a musician, singer/songwriter. Stevie wrote to her Mom she was bored in the studio with little to do (nothing much has changed) Mr Useless worked far more on their music than she did but always split it 50/50 even when they first entered FM. He'd been making $400 a week on the road with Don Everly in late 1974 and FM first offered them $400 and it was split $200 each. Lindsey believed they could make it as a duo (and considering all their solo songs on the White Album were BN songs he was probably right) but Stevie was tired of struggling and jealous she didn't get to go out on the road (and had made that deal with her father of going back to school in 6 months) - so he said yes if Stevie could also join. He did it because he loved her and he'd always supported her music & believed in their partnership - not because he owed her anything.
More than a few big songs , FM is a legendary rock group
Stevie Nicks (vocals), Christine McVie (RIP- vocals, keyboard), Lindsey Buckingham (guitar), John McVie (bass), Mick Fleetwood (percussion). Check out Christine's "Songbird".
Songbird is such a beautiful song. I also love Eva Cassidy version ❤
@@Mariethename99 Eva's voice is awesome but for this song I prefer the original. It's Perfect.
@@MatthewC137 I prefer Eva's version and to each their own.
Talk about a rabbit hole. Fleetwood Mac will take you through an entire warren. Each member has had legendary solo careers and careers in other bands. These dreams is Heart not the Mac
A lot of people don’t realize that this was the most expensive video ever made on MTV until Michael Jackson’s thriller. Great video for a great song
"Gypsy" was written by Stevie Nicks, for her best friend Robin who died of leukemia 5 days after she gave birth to her son Matthew. Stevie had known Robin since she was 14.
The video for "Gypsy" is my all time favorite. I thought Stevie {which by the way is short for Stephanie}, was absolutely beautiful in it. Especially at the end in the pink setting. She has been practicing ballet since a very young age. That's some of what she's doing in the beginning of the video...
This is the real story of this song right here^^ She dedicated the royalties to the child as well, I read somewhere
@@HeyItsCasser ~ Oh I didn't know about the royalties going to him, thanks for telling me.
I do know Stevie paid for Matthew's college though...
@@HeyItsCasser Not the real story. She wrote Gypsy in 78/79 intended for her solo album - years before Robin was diagnosed. They couldn't make it work so she brought it to FM in 1981 for Mirage. Robin died in Oct 1982. She didn't donate money from it - she instead married the widowerer for 3 months to in her words "get her hands on that baby" then lost contact with Matthew when they split until he was an adult when she paid for his college.
Lindsey Buckingham’s guitar playing is off the chain!
The spinning Stevie Nicks - an icon.
Stevie nicks is a gypsy a free spirit type by nature... flowy clothes , flowy hair, she's beautiful she writes her own music she's just amazing 🌸
My favorite part is when Lindsey kisses Stevie’s hand while dancing. The longing on his face….such a star-crossed couple 💔
Hi BP. Yes, Fleetwood Mac is worth your time. All 5 band members are very talented. 3 of them have taken lead vocals, at one time or another. The 3 are all song writers. Stevie Nicks, (lead vocals), Linsey Buckingham (lead guitar, vocals), Christine McVie (piano, keyboards, other, vocals)., John McVie (bass, Christine's ex husband). Mick Fleetwood (drums, percussion). Stevie & Lindsey are ex bf/gf as well. Mick had quick affair with Stevie. Christine had an affair with someone affiliated with the band. Stevie & Lindsay were breaking up. Christine & John getting divorced. And, Mick splitting with his wife. All this turbulence lead to one of the best albums of all time. Rumors. Unbelievable emotions in that album. Many of the songs about the couples splitting up. Any song from that album is great. Dreams, The Chain, Go Your Own Way, Gold Dust Woman, Never Going Back Again, Don't Stop (very upbeat), You Make Loving Fun, Don't Want to Know, and Songbird. Some have said Rhiannon, live on Midnight Special 1976. (Yes! A must). You'll see why. Also for great guitar playing by Lindsey, I'm So Afraid and Big Love. They are great live. Any song. They had a terrific performance, live, in 1997. A reunion tour for new album The Dance. Search Fleetwood Mac the Dance, the show will come up. You can use that for many of these songs. They were ong their game that night. In fact, two more songs, from that show are a must. Landslide, & Silver Springs( check out the emotion pouring out of Stevie...she is singing about Lindsey, who is right next to her.). It's Incredible! 🙂
Yaaaass! One of my all time favourite songs. Stevie's voice is so mesmerising and unique, and that guitar riff at the end.....❤❤
Her name is Stevie Nicks.
This was awesome. Please do more Fleetwood Mac AND Stevie Nicks.
Check out Tusk by FM and Leather and Lace.
Edge of Seventeen!
Oooh I love Tusk!
The song refers to her lifestyle when she was younger and feeling nostalgic about it.
she's using Gypsy in the metaphorical sense: a little fey, a little magical, free spirit
Fleetwood Mac-a very deep rabbit hole & you willl love every minute of it. The Rumors album went 21X platinium!
If you are going to do a live performance of Fleetwood Mac you MUST do "Rhinnon" it will blow you away. Stevie absolutely slays in her performance. Love to see this reaction as it is not only my favorite Fleetwood Mac song but also my favorite music video of all time! Thanks BP!❤
Lyrically, "Gypsy" recounts the narrator’s early adulthood; before joining the group, Nicks lived with Lindsey Buckingham, who would also join Fleetwood Mac. Nicks and Buckingham were musical and romantic partners; however, only their musical partnership has survived. At that earlier time they barely got by with the income from Nicks' work as a waitress and cleaning lady.
They could not afford a bed frame, so they slept on a mattress directly on the floor. Nicks says the mattress was decorated in lace, with a vase and a flower at its side. Whenever she feels her famous life getting to her, she goes "back to her roots," and takes her mattress off the frame and puts it "back to the floor" and decorates it with "some lace, and paper flowers."
On 31 March 2009, Nicks gave an interview to Entertainment Weekly discussing the inspiration for the song:
"In the old days, before Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey [Buckingham] and I had no money, so we had a king-size mattress, but we just had it on the floor. I had old vintage coverlets on it, and even though we had no money it was still really pretty... Just that and a lamp on the floor, and that was it-there was a certain calmness about it. To this day, when I'm feeling cluttered, I will take my mattress off of my beautiful bed, wherever that may be, and put it outside my bedroom, with a table and a little lamp."
On 25 March 2009, during a show in Montreal, Quebec on Fleetwood Mac's Unleashed Tour, Nicks gave a short history of the inspiration behind "Gypsy". She explained it was written sometime in 1978-1979, when the band had become "very famous, very fast". It was a song that brought her back to an earlier time, to an apartment in San Francisco where she had taken the mattress off her bed and put it on the floor. To contextualize, Nicks voiced the lyrics: "So I'm back, to the velvet underground. Back to the floor, that I love. To a room with some lace and paper flowers. Back to the gypsy that I was." Those are the words: 'So I'm back to the velvet underground'-which is a clothing store in downtown San Francisco, where Janis Joplin got her clothes, and Grace Slick from Jefferson Airplane. It was this little hole in the wall, amazing, beautiful stuff-'back to the floor that I love, to a room with some lace and paper flowers, back to the gypsy that I was.'"
The second point of inspiration for the song is the message as a tribute to someone's passing. On 5 October 1982, Robin Snyder Anderson, Nicks' best friend, died of leukemia. So the song took on a new significance for her, and Nicks dedicated the song to her in future performances.
I did some plumbing for Mick, ended up spending the whole night watching them Jam.. I ask Mick if he was in a band 😀 True story.
Their guitar player is an all time talent. Great singer too. You should check out him doing Big Love from their live video The Dance. He finger picks and it’s mind blowing. That video really shows it off.
this song written by stevie nicks tells of her yearning of her past before her success with fleetwood mac. "gypsy" represents though a more struggling time, she had more freedom ("...back to the gypsy...that i was...).
the true beauty of this song is the gorgeous arrangement, musical flourishing (specifically the almost dancing-sounding embellishment of the guitars to the vocal) by the enormously gifted lindsey buckingham. this song would NEVER have sounded as magical without him ❤
fun fact: at the time this music video was the most expensive ever to make - over 1 MILLION dollars - in 1982.
When I saw her in concert she said this song was written about when she was just starting out in the music industry and she went to an unique hippie store and could buy anything she wanted and that’s when it clicked that she had made it. Love her and Fleetwood Mac.
The Velvet Underground was the store....I believe.
Fleetwood Mac was fronted by Stevie Nicks, the same who sang Edge of Seventeen you reacted to recently
Fleetwood Mac was an amazing band. I just saw Stevie Nick's and Billy Joel in concert a few months back and they both sound great and are in their 70's! She brought out some of her flowey outfits that she's kept through the years. Some from the '60's. Crazy! They put on a great concert at the US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. I think there were around 55,000 in attendance. 😊
Fleetwood Mac was originally a blues rock band formed by Peter Green in the mid sixties. Try the songs "Oh Well" and the melodic "Man of the World" among many others. Peter Green and various band members came and went until about 1974. During this transitional period, the band started becoming less blues, more pop rock. Check out songs like "Hypnotized" and "Sentimental Lady", again, among many other good songs.
The core remaining members in 1974 were Mick Fleetwood (drums), John McVie (bass), and Christine McVie (keyboards, vocals). Mick Fleetwood was looking for a lead guitarist, and found Lindsey Buckingham. Lindsey refused to join the band unless they also hired his then-girlfriend "Stevie Nicks" as an additional vocalist.
In a nutshell, the addition of Lindsey and Stevie led to superstardom for the band, especially following release of the album "Rumors" in 1977. Every track on it is a hit!!!
RIP Christine. Thanks for the memories.✌
your comment is exactly right. And the first song you listed is a must listen to before you die song.. If you have never heard Oh Well at least once in your life then you miss out on the best opening lyrics ever written.
Gold Dust Woman, Rhiannon, Chains, Really anything off Rumors. Stevie Nicks is the Queen of 70's Rock. (With Annie Haslam of Renaissance right up their with her.) .
I always loved Fleetwood Mac. A great album to check out is Rumors by them. The whole allbum is fantastic.
The band has evolved a lot over the years, going through a number of members before the Buckingham Nicks era (the best known era). Many great songs and are not fixed to one style some tracks are:-
Oh Well, Albatross, Rhiannon, The Chain, Monday Morning, Tusk, You Make loving Fun, Oh Dianne, Dont' Stop, Big Love
Many more great tracks in their catalogue
One of my favourite albums was Rumours, loved it, so many great songs, including some favs 'Gold Dust Woman', 'Don't Stop', 'The Chain', 'Go Your Own Way' and 'Second Hand News'. I also remember the early Fleetwood Mac from the 1960s with Peter Green, some great songs, including 'Albatross', 'The Green Manalishi' and 'Oh Well'.
This band truly is a gem, regardless of which era you delve into! During this era, there are 3 main songwriters who also take turns being the lead singer. 😁 Please do more!
Stevie Knicks all time favorite female singer. Love her voice. Fleetwood Mac one of the best concerts I have been to. Great reaction, keep them coming friend.
You just watched Stevie Nicks in Fleetwood Mac, She's also on her own! Stevie is short for Stephanie and what she would call herself as a little girl learning to talk....my name is Stevie
First female artist to be inducted into the Rocking Roll Hall of Fame twice. Once with Fleetwood Mac and the second time as a solo artist. She’s the real deal!!
You REALLY need to check out Don Henley & Stevie Nicks song called Leather & Lace! 🤩 It’s amazing!!!
I totally said this same thing in his last Stevie Nicks reaction! 😁🙌 Also Stop draggin' my heart around with Tom Petty!!
@@chelseahaley8350 I swear we have the EXACT same taste in music! 🫶🏼😂 You’re the shit! ❤️
Yes!! 💯💯
That’s Stevie Nicks on lead vocal, you recently reacted to Edge Of Seventeen solo. The official music video for Dreams is a live version 👍
They did a live concert in 1997 that featured a lot of the songs from their Rumours album. If you get a chance you should catch either Landslide or I Don't Want to Know. Their is a wonderful interaction between Stevie and her on again off again love Lindsay (lead guitar) Beautiful songs
Congrats on the baby! I can't believe you have done Queen at Live aid. You would love it!!
I love her and saw her a few years in concert! She's still beautiful and her voice is great!! ❤
Those lyrics, Lindsey's guitar picking....magical.
The song Silver Springs from the Live performance during the 1997 The Dance tour which was played on the radio when I was in high is an absolute amazing live performance. The damn chemistry that Stevie and Lindsey had on that stage and playing off each others energy was simply fantastic. I highly recommend that video.
1973 my dad bought me an album, Buckingham Nicks the only album they made before joining Fleetwood Mack. I still have it to this day. She’s always been nothing but beauty & grace with a raspy voice that’s unbelievable.
With Fleetwood Mac you get multiple songwriters/singers so all of their songs sound different.
That's Stevie Nicks. You've reacted to her when she was performing in her solo career.
Gypsy was also used to describe dancers and singers on broadway have listened to Stevie for over 50 years and their music never gets old 😊
Stevie Nicks wrote so many great songs for this band. She is such a poetic queen! 👸🏼
She wrote so many poems that she has turned into songs (such as this song). She said that she still has thousands of poems in her repertoire. A lot of her lyrics are very nodescriptive.
She is my musical idol! I absolutely adore her.
FM is my all time favorite classic rock band. So many great songs have been written between Stevie, Lindsey, and Christine!
RIP Christine McVie 😢🕊️🎹
EDIT: Also, you mentioned her flexibility. She studied ballet as a young to teen girl and carried that with her all of her life.
Stevie Nicks's vocals are just bliss. On one sounds as good as Stevie, loved her look too.
I always feel the gypsy is the free spirited young person that you once were. Then you get older and become more responsible and restricted. It's looking back and catching a glimpse of that still alive in yourself.
This video with all the members in it highlights Stevie as the center of the story. It's difficult......no impossible.....not to fall in love with her even if you had never heard her before. But guess what? EVERYBODY loves Stevie.
I get such a kick out of Watching you react to the music I grew up with, the 60s were amazing. I was in high school at the time. Late 50’s 60’s and 70s I think we’re the best rock music. Thanks for the entertainment.
Lanie Gardner performed on the hard rock stage in Nashville at the CMA awards celebration
Ive seen Stevie Nicks twice in concert. She puts on a wonderful concert!
Not to forget " Tusk" 🎶❤🎶 Great song by FM❤
There will never be another Stevie . The goddess ,
I can’t hear this song without thinking of my grandfather. He loved this song and I heard it so much when I was a kid in the early 80’s!
One of my favorite songs from them!! I never get tired of hearing it
She’s talking about a particular period in her life when she lived with all the members of the Fleetwood Mac in a house. She slept on a mattress on the floor and she was really happy during that time. The song is her nostalgia of that happy “gypsy” time.
As you dive into Fleetwood Mac, you just have to do the live performance of Silver Springs! Amazing! The tension between Stevie and Lindsey is IN-TENSE. Talk about throwing daggers with your eyes! I love the song and the live performance, about makes me cry every time.
So many great Fleetwood Mac songs to react to! Try “Tusk”, “the chain”, “landslide”, “everywhere”, “Rhiannon”, and “Hold me”
Fleetwood Mac will keep you busy for a couple years brother! 😂
Just the relationship dynamics between these 4 people is something else!
Lindsey Buckingham was the creative engine and Stevie was a voice like an ANGEL.
Well you'll see! Watch a few of the behind the music shows! There's doing cocaine and then there's what they did! 😆 🎉
5 people, Christine, Stevie, John, Lindsey, and Mick.
@@user-oh2hs6jh5x poor John! I always forget John! Thanks!
My favorite music video of all time. Love the definite influence from "Singing in the Rain" in some parts of the video.
Fleetwood Mac went thru a few interactions of band members. They started off as a British band (1967) and had several hits starting n the late 60's. In 1974 2 Americans joined the band, Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham. This is probably the best known iteration of the band thru the 70 and 80's. They had 25 top billboard hits produced 18 studio Album not including compilation and singles or solo albums . Second Hand News, Dreams, Rhiannon, Don t Stop, Go Your Own Way, Hypnotized
The Chain, You Make Loving Fun, Green Manalishi, Monday morning, Gold Dust Woman, Silver Springs, Oh well, Albatross,
I think this is the best..to a room where some lace and paper flowers.K she’s the best.❤❤❤
I actually had her pull up next to me when I lived in Scottsdale, Az. My car window was down and one of her songs was playing on the radio. I was singing along at full volume (I can't carry a tune in a bucket) and something made me look over to my left out the window and there she sat with a smile from ear to ear, giving me a thumbs up. Then the light turned green and her car turned left while I went straight. Most memorable moment of my life.
The Chain - it's such a great groove and based on a true personal experience
Tusk - thumping
Landslide - poignant and thought provoking
Oh my goodness this brings back old memories. 😊😊 I'm 56 and this is one of my favorite songs besides landslide.
I love seeing you genuinely intrigued and enjoying certain songs that I've always enjoyed and known.. I love the fact that you're honest that you just never gave certain music a try because that's not what you thought you would like. But now you're opening yourself up to all this other music and enjoying it! That is awesome
He already did a Stevie video, and said when he punched in Stevie, Fleetwood Mac kept coming up. I figured after the Stevie video, hed recognize her in this one
Truly great band. My favorite is Landslide. I'd recommend the live version by Fleetwood Mac and then checking out the version by Smashing Pumpkins.
I was coming here to say the exact same thing. ❤
Stevie has LONG been my spirit animal.
The kind of Gypsy, Stevie Nicks is singing about are the dancers and performers that move from town to town and from stage to stage.
The Velvet Underground was a storied shop in San Francisco, with another outlet in Santa Cruz, located in the now long gone Cooper House. I shoped in the Santa Cruz outlet. I got my tarot cards there. I can not begin to describe the ambiance or the curious collection of folks who could be found there at any random Saturday afternoon. I always smile when I hear this song.
😊”The Chain” is iconic!
Singer is Stevie Nicks. The Chain, Leather and Lace and Gold Dust Woman are amazing!
When you listen to FM songs, like Tusk, The Chain, and Go Your Own Way, suggest you listen and watch the performances from the concert The Dance. Great performances.
she is ethereal. gypsy. bohemian. witch. all of the above. And she wrote this track.
Love Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nick's is the singer of the group. She is awesome til this day. Love Stevie Voice
A singer, unless you meant in this song. The 3 songwriters each sang lead in the songs they wrote.
If I am ever stranded I would need music from Stevie Nicks and Miss Dolly Parton I would survive,
From what I remember reading she wrote this song to include various memories from her past including a reference to her friend that had been diagnosed with Leukaemia and died shortly after the song was written. 😢
