Fleetwood Mac合唱團是由Peter Green、Mick Fleetwood、John McVie三人在倫敦組團，但1974年轉往加州發展之後才開始走紅，Lindsey Buckingham與Stevie Nicks的加入更使他們實力大增，在排行榜上留下了很多受歡迎的歌，後來在歷年暢銷歌星與合唱團排行榜獲得第102名。

Fleetwood Mac名次最好的歌是1977年的冠軍歌曲Dreams，在BMI全美最常播出百首歌曲榜這首歌得到第80名。



DREAMS

Fleetwood Mac

(Stevie Nicks)



Now here you go again

You say you want your freedom

Well who am I to keep you down

It's only right that you should

Play the way you feel it

But listen carefully to the sound

Of your loneliness

Like a heartbeat...drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had

And what you lost...

And what you had...

And what you lost



Thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Say...Women...they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean...you'll know



Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions

I keep my visions to myself

It's only me

Who wants to wrap around your dreams and...

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

Dreams of loneliness...

Like a heartbeat...drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had...

And what you lost

And what you had...

And what you lost



Thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Say...Women...they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean...you'll know
