November 30, 20223 yr Very much will miss her! Damnit this is shit news. RIP! Will be listening to Fleetwood Mac and thinking of all the joy she brought to my life. Damn…
November 30, 20223 yr For FM newbies, the album "Mystery to Me" is worth checking out. I know this is not a popular opinion but I always prefered the Bob Welch/Christine McVie vocals to Lindsey Buckingham/Stevie Nicks.

November 30, 20223 yr Whoa. Loved her voice and how she blended with Stevie & Lindsey. Hard to believe she was 79. This one hurts.

November 30, 20223 yr Been on a big FM kick recently. Knew of them but have really dug into the catalog lately. My $0.02 opinion: Overrated: Stevie Underrated: Christine and Lindsey (yes, this is his band, but I think he is still underrated)
November 30, 20223 yr Popular Post Well shit, this just sucks!! She was a very cool lady, very gracious to us in the USC Band. To be honest I much preferred Christine to Stevie Nicks, both in voice and looks. Glad to say I got to perform with her twice. Absolutely gutted…
November 30, 20223 yr Nice live cut of "Why", later more famous version of the band: Edited November 30, 20223 yr by jimmyjazz
November 30, 20223 yr Me, to someone at work..."Christine McVie died." "Who?" "The woman in Fleetwood Mac who wasn't Stevie Nicks." "Oh, her."

My $0.02 opinion: Overrated: Stevie Underrated: Christine and Lindsey (yes, this is his band, but I think he is still underrated) CM is massively underrated as a songwriter and singer. LB is definitely underrated as a guitarist and absolutely critical to the massive commercial success of the band. But it was never his band.
November 30, 20223 yr Written and performed by Christine. One of the catchiest damn songs I've ever heard. Never get tired of it.

November 30, 20223 yr Shit. Just heard. And on sports radio, of all places. Damn, that sucks. RIP. Such a loss.

November 30, 20223 yr Damn…beautiful, sexy voice. Stevie’s voice made me want to have sex with he.r. Christine’s made me want to be with her….and also have sex. Edited December 1, 20223 yr by Hate

November 30, 20223 yr Hard to imagine a less selfish musician. CM subjugated her talents time and time again in service of the band. Maybe her greatest talent was to cut through the tension--real and imagined--created by FM's crazy dynamics and just lay down lovely, warm keyboards or simple and timeless lyrics with unbelievable ease. You make loving fun. It's all I wanna do. What fucking else do you need?

December 1, 20223 yr So grateful I was able to see Fleetwood Mac in concert in 1997 in San Antonio. Christine was a lovely soul. So much talent. Severely underrated as a vocalist as well. Her voice as has been said here was absolutely sultry and sexy and under appreciated. You make loving fun indeed. One of my favorites…in large part because she got to be upfront and center. Will be sorely missed. 😘
December 1, 20223 yr this was on the radio the other day and I thought oh Fleetwood Mac. Then I looked at the radio and was surprised to see that it’s not a FM song, but hers. For whatever difference that is worth.

I believe Buckingham plays guitar on this, and Steve Ferrone (Tom Petty) was the drummer.

December 1, 20223 yr Goodness, her pitch control was extraordinary, and effortless. Her brain was on autotune. And her TONE. Just a hint of grit in there, but pure, sort of an alto with a higher range. Man. Gotta break out the Mac albums tonight, and pour myself a nice single malt. Or two.
December 1, 20223 yr I know I keep posting CM’s stuff off of Tusk, but that kinda feels like her album with the help of LB. Probably in my top 3 FM songs.
December 1, 20223 yr Keep 'em coming. In my mind, I'm back in my 1973 Camaro, this was all part of the soundtrack.

December 1, 20223 yr Maybe Chevy will show some respect and stop ruining that song for people by taking that stupid commercial off the air
