❤Its 7-1-2024, I'm sitting on my porch thinking about my older sister who passed away 6 years ago. I just happened to look to my look to my left, and my little green hummingbird friend is about 10 feet from me. It always makes me think of her. So, this song, Christine's passing, and my sister on my mind...then the hummingbird...❤❤❤
What incredibly sad news today. RIP Christine McVie. We will miss your beautiful songs, silky voice and melodic piano/keyboard playing. You were indeed Perfect, Christine.
RIP Christine, you will be dearly missed. Back in the early 1980's I saw Fleetwood Mac in Philadelphia. There was a pause prior to the beginning of Songbird so that Christine could go from keyboard over to the piano. When she played the first few notes to Songbird the entire stadium fell silent. The piano was gorgeous, her voice angelic. It felt like an out of body experience. When Christine was done she got a standing ovation. What a moment that was, once in a lifetime.
Christine's voice always moved me in a deeper more profound way than any of the other voices in Fleetwood Mac. They were all Great but there was always something So beautiful about Christine. My God bless you and love you as you pass over.
She and Lindsey Buckingham were vocal fire together on ‘World Turning’, paired with his immaculate guitar, and she had long been crucial to the band’s success before the Buck/Nicks joined up.
This recording was done at the Zellerback Auditorium back in 1976. Because it was being recorded in a concert hall, it had to be played, sung, and recorded, all in one take; and so, she sat down at the piano and did just that. The concert hall gave the song the acoustics needed to display its true potential. Lindsey Buckingham added some light guitar riffs back in the studio, and the song made it onto one of the most successful albums of all time.
This was only 2 months ago and today we lost her. So many memories for so many people, wrapped in the wonderful music of Christine McVie. Rest In Peace Songbird . You were superb.
My husband and I saw Fleetwood Mac several years ago and she STILL sounded incredible!! Was one of the highlights of the show! Her real name is fitting…Christine Perfect, Indeed!!
I get angered at myself for not tearing up much when my mother (2018) and father (2022) passed, but my tears often flow when my favorite celebrities pass on. RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded Christine's voice has such purity and is still packed with emotion, it is simply breathtaking. Fleetwood Mac as well has giving great musicians had 2 of the best female singers around. Cosmo is spot on Stevie seemed to get a lot of the publicity, but think a lot of it was also down to Christine not really wanting the limelight she is a very quiet and reserved person where Stevie was definately a social butterfly.
Strongly agree. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and this performance is sublime. But, as she so often did, Eva Cassidy brought to her cover a touch of the divine.
Everybody's reacting now. Thank you for having done it before she died. I have always loved, and will always love, this beautiful and talented artist...
Christine has the most beautiful voice, and is killer on the piano. Overlooked. ❤ Love her. And yet Christine and Stevie were very close friends, and still are.
Great great song and Beautiful song from Fleetwood Mac, Thanks Cosmo Kramer for the request and the introduction before the song, I agree with you completely
Another secret weapon they had was the combo of Christine & Lindsey on vocals ( w/Stevie doing light backup), as you can hear on “Do You Know”. Their voices blend so well !
Christine has long been my favorite member of Fleetwood Mac. Her voice is contralto which has a richness Nicks wishes she had. Christine doesn't just write gorgeous ballads such as this but can also write a catchy pop song. She even made an album with just Lindsey Buckingham a few years ago, they've always sounded great together. For me Nicks is okay but she puts on a persona, the mystical gypsy/witch. Her find most of her songs don't move me and her voice is limited. McVie sings from her heart, she's the real deal.
They can just exist and be appreciated in their own right. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. Both Christine and Stevie are mega stars. Fly true songbird.
@@angelajakem366 That's a matter of opinion, of course, and completely untrue. She's great on the piano and her voice is suited to her songs and Fleetwood Mac, and it's lovely, but I don't know what you're smoking if you think it's anywhere near as good as Stevie nicks.
Good points, but id have to disagree about the Stevie persona comment when your that good you just do what you do and she is amazing, absolutely love Christine as well.
God, will people PLEASE stop with the inane comparisons! It's like apples and oranges. They were both unique voices. Is because they were both women that people keep wanting to pit them "against" each other? I haven't seen comments foisting hateful comparisons of Christine and Lindsey, or Lindsey and Stevie. Heck, how 'bout Mick against John?!! Stop already!!!
There's a great video that I watched just a couple of days ago called "Fleetwood Mac's Secret Weapon" about Christine McVie. Many people don't know just how many of the band's big hits she wrote and sang. So much focus was on Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham But this woman was an extremely prolific songwriter and a real power house behind a large portion of Fleetwood Mac's music. Oh, and the woman has incredibly beautiful green eyes! (check out, "Fleetwood Mac - Hold Me (Official Music Video 😍) Just thought I'd throw that in, lol. Also, Eva Cassidy did a great cover of this song!
I think literally every song on that rumors album is so iconic and truly excellent. Christine McVie at that point was getting overshadowed by Stevie Nicks, but she was a mainstay from early on and had a solo career before that with her maiden name, Christine Perfect. A lot of people really love her particular album called the Christine Perfect album. And then Fleetwood Mac put out Bare Trees and then Rihanna or whatever that other one is called, and then Rumors was just blew up huge. I love her singing and piano playing on this and the other ballad that she is featured on in this album. I think it might be called Oh Daddy.
Christine was never overshadowed within the band. After Peter Green left she and Danny Kirwan were the band. Then her and Bob Welch were the band. Then her and Stevie and Lindsey were the band. Mick and John (who pretty much owned the band after Peter left) would have fired any of the others in an instant if Christine had asked them to - not that she would have. Stevie was sexier and wanted a solo career, but Christine never did.
The story is she stayed in the studio by herself after the others had left and recorded this with just her and the piano. Plus she'd been doing great songs like this with the Mac for years before Stevie joined.
I saw her with Lindsey two years ago, just the two of them in concert in Southern California. She did this song and nobody uttered a sound. In her late 70s herself now she still sounded great. And your account of what happened is pretty on point. But it was recorded at the Zellerbach auditorium.. Just her, grand piano and lots of flowers. Amazing. Not enough praise for her.
They actually struggled to get a good take in the studio, so they booked a local auditorium, put up a bunch of mics and set a bouquet of roses on her piano, and put a spotlight on the roses so when she came it it was like she was giving a live performance, but to just the engineer and producer, and Lindsey Buckingham who strums a guitar throughout. It’s a single live take. It was written for her soon to be ex-husband, John McVie, and it is said that for years afterward, when ever they did this live, the band left the stage, and McVie would stand in the wings weeping as she played it.
@@ronbock8291 did you get a chance to see her and Lindsey when they toured together a few years back? Seeing it live was a near religious experience. Her and Lindsey together were awesome overload. She did, I believe it was, YOU MAKE LOVING FUN and kinda gushed a little and confessed that it was her naughty secret that the song was about her crush on Lindsey. I don't know if that's true or if she was just having fun with the audience. She was chucking about it as she started. I will say Lindsey is trying so hard to look young and had had work done. He almost looked like Alice from the Brady Bunch...
@@Timoeltejano I did not, sadly. I've only seen Fleetwood Mac once, and it was without Christine, which i knew going in, but it was still a massive hole without her. I went to see Mick and Mac, one of my favourite rhythm sections of all time, and was pleasantly surprised by just how great a performer Lindsey was, he really carried the show. I mean, I know he's great, but it's one thing knowing, and a whole other thing experiencing.
She put out a solo album in 1984. From that, her song "Got A Hold" made it to #10 on the US charts, Lindsey Buckingham plays guitar on it. Has a pop vibe, very similar to some Fleetwood Mac. There's another on there, "Ask Anybody" co-written and performed with Steve Winwood and Mick Fleetwood on drums. Beautiful song and keyboards on it.
Christine was by far the best singer/songwriter in Fleetwood Mac. Songbird, Oh Daddy, Brown Eyes, You Make Loving Fun, Over And Over, Isn't It Midnight, Only Over You, Hold Me, You'll Never Make Me Cry, Over My Head, Honey Hi, Warm Ways, Wish You Were Here, Say You Love Me, and then there are the hits Everywhere and Little Lies.
I love this song...Christine was kind of overshadowed by Stevie...who I love ...but glad to see you doing a FM song by Christine...try Say You Love Me, Over My Head, Warm Ways, You Make Loving Fun they are her songs and vocals, too
I was lucky enough to see them live in St Louis 1982, right after the St Louis Cardinals won the World Series a few nights earlier, and as the final encore, with just her playing piano, she mentioned the win and dedicated Songbird to the "world champion St Louis "Redbirds", as locals call them, and the crowd went absolutely apeshit! An unforgettable moment. She did sing on Oh Daddy, and You Make Loving Fun, one of my favorite Mac songs and a few others.
I think the song you are thinking of is “You Make Lovin’ Fun”, which Christine also sang lead on. It is a little more upbeat, but has a similar note/chord progression.
Fleetwood Mac just oozed talent always and that started with Christine McVie (R.I.P.). Rumors is an absolute masterpiece that I recommend to anyone that loves real music.
Try listening to Christine singing I Would Rather Go Blind with Chicken Shack - a great British blues band from the 60s with a great guitarist, Stan Webb. That was when I first heard her voice and I have never forgotten it.
I love it when you like a song, and you lean back, and look like your whole body is taking it in and you are smiling with your mouth closed, but, smiling, in bliss. Thank you Harri!
There is an earlier Fleetwood Mac song of Christine's called "Homeward Bound" that you should check out. From before Lindsay and Stevie joined the band.
Saw Fleetwood Mac six times between 1977 and 1987, and each time this was their very last encore. Usually, Christine was alone with her piano on stage, but once Lindsay and John sat on the drum riser and played acoustic guitars. Being a yonger and hornier person back then, Stevie was the one that usually captured my attention. But whenever Christine was featured, my heart was completely enthralled with her. This song belongs on any softer playlist you may have.

I just happened to look to my look to my left, and my little green hummingbird friend is about 10 feet from me. It always makes me think of her.

Fly away Songbird…thank you for being part of the soundtrack of my life. ❤️
On this day of Christine’s death she is the perfect song bird,god please let there be a super choir up there
Rest in peace dear songbird❤️🐦
I absolutely love this song. So many people forget exactly how spectacular Christine mcvie's voice truly is.
One of my all time favorites, she was magnificent on the song. I will miss her.
True! I think of her more as a writer of wonderful songs, but her voice is really amazing, too! RIP, Christine!
@@gordonglantz6057 Christine sang more leads on FM hit songs than Stevie.
Yes! Oh Daddy was also her song
Tears while listening to this.
1943-2022. Thank you Christine.
RIP Christine. You'll never be forgotten.
Stunning, isn't she.
What incredibly sad news today. RIP Christine McVie. We will miss your beautiful songs, silky voice and melodic piano/keyboard playing. You were indeed Perfect, Christine.
One of the sweetest songs that soars up through the sky to the highest heights! Christine at her vocal best!
She wrote that at 3am on a Champagne & Coke binge. Took her 30 minutes. The most beautiful song ever.
And she was terrified she'd forget it so she didn't go to bed, playing it over and over until the studio opened the next morning!
And was recorded at a concert hall in Berkley, CA..you can hear it in the resonance of the piano...a big empty place, with good acoustics!
Christine McVie is an angel.
RIP Christine, you will be dearly missed. Back in the early 1980's I saw Fleetwood Mac in Philadelphia. There was a pause
prior to the beginning of Songbird so that Christine could go from keyboard over to the piano. When she played the first
few notes to Songbird the entire stadium fell silent. The piano was gorgeous, her voice angelic. It felt like an out of body
experience. When Christine was done she got a standing ovation. What a moment that was, once in a lifetime.
Rest in peace songbird
Christine's voice always moved me in a deeper more profound way than any of the other voices in Fleetwood Mac. They were all Great but there was always something So beautiful about Christine. My God bless you and love you as you pass over.
Yes that is Christine playing the piano.❤️🧡💛💚💙☮️
This song hits home a lot harder now that she’s joined the heavenly choir. #RIPChristineMcVie
She and Lindsey Buckingham were vocal fire together on ‘World Turning’, paired with his immaculate guitar, and she had long been crucial to the band’s success before the Buck/Nicks joined up.
Farewell Christine, love the songbird
Have you heard, 'You Make Loving Fun' yet? Another great one by Christine. 'Warm Ways?' It brings back a flood of memories.
R.I.P. Dear Christine. So many childhood memories you gave me & I will be forever grateful for your voice! 💖 ❤💔 Hugs, from Mesa, AZ 🌵 😢

And now she's gone. Good night and God bless to you too Christine. Safe journey. RIP.
Christine's voice was a warm blanket thrown over the audience.
"I love you, I love you, I love you, like never before.."
Christine McVie brought the soul to Fleetwood Mac.
The angels are her for such a short time brother, they just pass through us.
RIP Christine McVie. May the Songbird fly free. . . 😢
Rest in Peace Christine, your music will love for eternity and we will forever miss you 🌹😢❤️
RIP Songbird
Another one that Christine is perfect on is Over My Head.
Ironic that she was born Christine Perfect...
One of my favourites.
Only now, that she has passed, that Christine will finally get the recognition that she deserved...
She is an absolute songbird. My all time favorite Fleetwood Mac song.
Finally... Fleetwood Mac... the incomparable Christine McVie... the gorgeous "Songbird". Thank you Harri!😃
RIP 😥😢 thanks for the music CV rest easy now💜💜
I doesn’t get any better than this… still missing our songbird.
We give YOU, Christine, ALL the love, in the World! Well Done Harri.
"Over my head"
"You make loving fun"
RIP Christine! Such a beautiful song!
This was only 2 months ago and today we lost her. So many memories for so many people, wrapped in the wonderful music of Christine McVie. Rest In Peace Songbird . You were superb.
AMEN 🐦🐦🐦🦋🦋🦋
She had the sweetest voice. Such a talented people to me are like touching God.
Christine McVied really is underappreciated.
My husband and I saw Fleetwood Mac several years ago and she STILL sounded incredible!! Was one of the highlights of the show! Her real name is fitting…Christine Perfect, Indeed!!
I’m in shock at the passing of Christine McVie. What a talent! May she rest in peace. 🙏♥️🙏
Yes. Christine Perfect. I have her album from 1970, “The Legendary Christine Perfect Album”, Christine McVie.
Saw them in 1979, amazing. They had the whole audience hypnotized.
One of the greatest Rock voices all time
RIP Songbird, we miss you already.
Rest In Peace Christine McVie
I get angered at myself for not tearing up much when my mother (2018) and father (2022) passed, but my tears often flow when my favorite celebrities pass on. RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That voice indeed! She has it all, sultry, soulful, beautiful, pure raw talent and damn sexy.
She will be signing these in heaven
I've always loved her voice, it's like honey, smooth and sweet. This is one of her best. I saw them when this album first came out, magical.
About time someone give some love to Christine thanks Hari!
You can hear the love, the angst, the betrayal in nearly every song on this fabulous album. Musical artists, all.
Well very sadly this bird has now flown. RIP Christine Perfect McVie.
"As Long As You Follow" is also one of Christine's best songs
RIP Christine. 💔
Christine at her best! One of the best from Fleetwood Mac. So glad you reacted! Just beautiful!
RIP Christine voice of an angel
What a beautiful song and beautiful voice Christine was a gift to us all , RIP Christine !
So beautiful 💜. And yes, Christine sings and plays the piano. She was definitely underrated. Also, I think the song you were referring to is Oh Daddy.
Oh Daddy is another absolutely stunning Christine McVie song
Brown eyes sung by Christine is amazing song. Listen to it
One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded Christine's voice has such purity and is still packed with emotion, it is simply breathtaking.

Christine is an amazingly talented lady. You should also listen to Eva Cassidy's cover - in fact, anything by Eva Cassidy.
This, Eva was wonderful
Strongly agree. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and this performance is sublime. But, as she so often did, Eva Cassidy brought to her cover a touch of the divine.
I would sing this to my kids at bedtime
Everybody's reacting now. Thank you for having done it before she died. I have always loved, and will always love, this beautiful and talented artist...
Christine has the most beautiful voice, and is killer on the piano. Overlooked. ❤ Love her. And yet Christine and Stevie were very close friends, and still are.
I'd like to recommend Christine's "Brown Eyes" from the Tusk album.
Great great song and Beautiful song from Fleetwood Mac, Thanks Cosmo Kramer for the request and the introduction before the song, I agree with you completely
My pleasure, John, glad you enjoyed it all.
Christine is not just my favourite vocalist in Fleetwood Mac, she’s one of my favourite vocalists period.
The fabulous Eva Cassidy covered this beautifully, but this is the ultimate version by the composer, absolutely mesmerising, well done Harri.
Another secret weapon they had was the combo of Christine & Lindsey on vocals ( w/Stevie doing light backup), as you can hear on “Do You Know”. Their voices blend so well !
A great song they did together is "World Turning" where they trade back and forth on lead. Love that one!
To use an old term "I wouldn't climb over Christine to get to Stevie."
i am crying today . . .
RIP Christine McVie

Christine sets the bar with this song, which has been recorded by many other performers. Check out Eva Cassidy's version.
Eva was one of those people who could sing a phone book and leave you speechless. What a loss.
That's the song that introduced me to Eva a couple years ago. Very good cover.
Christine's will always be my favorite but Eva does a great job with it and a lot of other songs.
You are such a beautiful Songbird. RIP Christine.
