There's something about this beat that's almost haunting. Cool song.

I've always liked this alot. I first heard it during a USC homecoming game.
Although I do like good football, I was never a big fan of USC and would never have sought out one of their regular-season games to watch (unless they were playing an SEC team, I suppose). But one Saturday morning I heard an announcer say that Fleetwood Mac would be performing in the halftime show, so I tuned in. FM performed the song with the USC marching band and it was fantastic. A few weeks later I heard the song on the radio.
If I remember correctly, a recording of the live performance with the marching band was mixed with studio performances to produce the single we're discussing here.

Very odd song. I remembering hearing them do this in concert on their "Behind The Mask" tour.

Cool song. Very few bands could have released a song like this at any point in the last 30 years. It shows how big Fleetwood Mac was back then.

Love it. So catchy. Definitely a very unconventional pop hit.

One of my favorite things they've ever done. It really stands out among their singles.

Love it. I hear that Buckingham was inspired by then-recent music by the Talking Heads and I can kind of hear that.

One of my favorites from them. Such a jam and just a really cool song.
Don't say that you love me!

Awesome song but, as I've said with many of their songs, I prefer the live version from The Dance.
