- • Remembering People We'... Remembering Christine, the amazing songwriter, vocalist and musician of Fleetwood Mac who passed away earlier today. Includes great interview with NYT music journalist Jim Farber. RIP, Ms. McVie.
One of the most talented women that has ever lived. May she rest in peace.
I can’t imagine how her UK fans feel. She was so humble and down to earth and funny. Rest in peace our Songbird.
Gutted mate. Fleetwood Mac are my favourite group ever. First vinyl album I treasured.
Songbird is just such a beautiful song. RIP Christine and thank you. ❤️
I'm in tears, the world has lost such a great woman.
So sad . Born in England Christine was our very own Songbird. RIP
You have to be of a certain age to know who Christine McVie was, but those of us who do mourn the passing of a consumate musician and songwriter.
@@redsquirrel1086 I'm 16 and literally crying right now...
The world has lost it's "SongBird". She will always be remembered. Christine McVie, RIP.
She had the best female voice in my generation. Thank you Christine 💕
Probably the most talented female musical artist Britain has ever produced. I can't think of anyone better.
Christine was Fleetwood Mac's secret weapon. She could come up with two hits where others had one. Christine was a class act and she will be greatly missed.
She will never be foregotten, a truly gifted musician and singer, wow so sad, so many famous musicians passing away, god bless you girl, one of the greatest singers and bands and song writer there as ever been, sincere sympathy to her family and loved ones
1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation
15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
James 4:4 New Living Translation
4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God."
Mark 8:36 New Living Translation
36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv I agree only I believe the King James Bible is the inspired words of God for English speaking people. So sad that people love THIS world. A new world is coming wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Alan: She did not believe in any types of gods, so just say goodbye, will miss you or something like that
She was forgotten as soon as she got old - just like all the famous rockers, just like all people.

Can’t process nor accept. Gutted. Sweet wonderful you, Christine McVie 💔
And you had to go there; one of the best songs in history, okay here you go:
Sweet wonderful you
You make me happy with the things you do
Oh, can it be so
This feeling follows me wherever I go
I never did believe in miracles
But I've a feeling it's time to try
I never did believe in the ways of magic
But I'm beginning to wonder why
I never did believe in miracles
But I've a feeling it's time to try
I never did believe in the ways of magic
But I'm beginning to wonder why
Don't, don't break the spell
It would be different and you know it will
You, you make loving fun
And I don't have to tell you but you're the only one
You, you make loving fun
It's all I want to do
You, you make loving fun
It's all I want to do
You, you make loving fun
It's all I want to do
You, you make loving fun
It's all I want to do

💔
We are all going to die its a matter when and how cradle to the grave
Saw her when she was Christine Perfect with Chicken Shack and the great Stan Webb in Romford around 1968 RIP
I would have to say Christine was my absolute favorite female performer. Songbird is one of those songs that reaches into your soul and pulls out emotions you didn’t know you had. She had the most beautiful voice. Amazing lady.
She was simply amazing💔
Saw Fleetwood Mac during The Tusk Tour
Christine was amazing, one of the best live performances, I ever saw.
She was up there with Steven Perry, Ann Wilson live.
@@theresecassell7909 But have you met my savior Jesus Christ? That is the question. no one else can save your soul.
My soul is doing just fine thanks mate,yours on the other hand seems to be having a few issues.Why dont you just leave people to do as they choose.Seriously muppets like you are the reason religion is (quite rightly)in its final death throes.
Well Put! Rest With The Angels, Christine🙏
She really was the glue of that band and so incredibly talented. We all know that. RIP Christine
Mick Fleetwood respected her opinion so much that he laid it on her to give the go ahead to accept Stevie and Lindsey into the band. Mick was worried that Christine might feel her thunder would be lost to Stevie. But, Christine did not want to be in the front. She wanted to be respected as a songwriting musician equal to all of them. She was smart enough to see that Stevie and Lindsey would assets to the band.
@@johnbrady1211 Stevie said Christine was her best friend from day one.
@@Canada_Dominium I have a book about Fleetwood Mac. It tells the story of how Christine wanted to talk one to one with Stevie. They met in a restaurant in LA and hit it off almost instantly. Next thing you know, they were in the band. I never ever heard any rumors of them having bad feelings towards each other. I guess through all the years they really were great friends.
@@Canada_Dominium Who TF CARES about Nicks right now???? She’s named at least 25 people as her “best friends” in interviews and print.
Christine deserves some private mourning and respect!!!! That means leave Nicks comments somewhere else right now.
Can it just PLEASE be about Christine for once???
🕊️RIP SONGBIRD🕊️
@@rockit3422 My comment was entirely about Christine McVie. You are lucky if you're described as a best friend.
Songbird could make grown men tear up . She was a hell of a good songwriter.
I have been in love with Christine longer than any woman including my wife. Like a lot of people her voice sang to my heart. RIP Songbird.
and she would have laughed at you a common person. duh. I hope you never said her same when making love to your wife. duh
A VERY UNIQUE VOICE (A SONGBIRD)
She was what I liked most about Fleetwood Mac. Her spirit, her songs, her voice... RIP
Horrible loss. Beautiful voice, beautiful woman. May Christine Rest In Peace.
Christine was/is the sunshine in our loves and losses..this has me gutted
For me, Christine McVie was not only an iconic musician/song writer/producer but she was also the epitome of understated English Elegance. She has been a part of me since 1977 when I first heard 'Dream' and fell in love with the album 'Rumours' . . . . I never met her but her passing seems like I just lost a part of my Family. Rest in Peace Christine and thank you for all the years 'Songbird'.
Christine McVie helped to create part of the soundtrack of my life. Grateful for her talent. She will be greatly missed.
It tells you a lot about a person’s legacy when there is not a single negative word about them. Truly a class of her own. Fly high Songbird.
Christine McVie's sudden death is both a tragedy & a shock ... I'm still stunned ... Bart
Yes unexpected and shocking.
Gutted, totally gutted. The world just doesn't need any more bad news. I truly hope she knew how loved and respected she was.
The chain has finally broken.
Sing down to us from heaven, songbird... Heaven knows we need it. Love you lady. 🌺
Eternity will not be about any of us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. WE all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day.

If money is the root of all evil, why do they collect it in a church?
I can't say enough about Christine. I didn't even realize she was 79. For someone who was so gifted and accomplished, she didn't act like a rock star but she was. An absolute icon. This is terribly sad.
Rest in peace, Christine.
I was surprised when they said she was 79 as well. She had a youthful energy about her. Very sad for her family, friends and fans. Thanks for the great music Christine✌️
I fell in love with her voice back in the 70s with "Bare Trees".
Spare me a little, loved that song.
I love Fleetwood Mac and Christine McVie. This world will never be the same without her. Godspeed, dear woman! 😢❤
What an incredible composer, musician and singer. I purchased my first Fleetwood Mac album when I was in Junior High back in the mid 70's.
Her voice is unique. RIP
Christine McVie truly was the spine of Fleetwood Mac. Her exquisite voice , her ability to pen a classic song that WE ALL KNOW and her undeniable musicianship made the Mac one of the biggest bands on the planet. Her passing yesterday at 79 came as a shock to me. I guess the bands you grow up listening to you think wil always be around but as each day turns we all grow a little older. If you’ve got a spare 15mins go on youtube and search ..
The Chain
As Long As You Follow
Don’t Stop
Everywhere
Little Lies
Isn’t It Midnight
Oh Daddy
Songbird
You Make Loving Fun…
These are just a few of the classics she wrote and sung. We’ve lost a true British talent that won’t be forgotten or replaced.
P.s how gorgeous was she 😍
RIP Christine 😢
I made a Christine McVie heavy playlist last week (her 1984 solo album is a true underrated 80s pop gem) that now, sadly, stands as a mini tribute. You will be missed, Miss Perfect.
Hero’s are so hard to find
So sad to hear of Christine's passing today. One of my top five female vocalists/artists. Her voice was smooth, soothing and powerful all at once. Reading comments here most people mention her when she was in Fleetwood Mac. Even the clip just mentions her while she was a member of Fleetwood Mac. But before she was a member of Fleetwood Mac, she cofounded the group Chicken Shack and had several solo albums. I would urge anyone that just knows her from her time with Fleetwood Mac to dig a little deeper into her musical career.
She was a unique artist with a voice like no other. She will be missed.....but not forgotten. RIP Christine 💔💞
My older brother has pointed me in the direction of Chicken Shack Robert.
Agreed. I still have my chicken shack and Fleetwood Mac albums, will give them a play later
Beautiful voice 💛
until judgement day.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv Go back to bed man.
She was a lovely woman in all ways, she had a calm aura and all of her songs I love, always take me back to good memories, what a legacy x
Hello 👋how are you doing?
Some iconic songs. A classic, rock and roll woman without the ego and hype. Thank you so much Christine for the beautiful music and great songs you gave to the world.
She never sang...."amazing Grace."
We sure loved her. She was Fleetwood Mac in my mind.
You left such a beautiful legacy of music Christine.
RIP.
The world was a better place for having her and is worse for her loss.
I can't even say how much her music means to me . I first heard it in 1977, when i was 21 and living on the western slope in Colorado, and i had just fallen in love with a beautiful girl . Fleetwood Mac came to Boulder as part of their Rumors tour, and we drove over the mountains to Folsom Field to see them . there was a no seating on the field, and even with a record crowd of 61,500, we got right up in front . it's one of my fondest memories ever, and that's how I will always remember Christine McVie.
👍🏻😎. I’m 3 years your junior. Moved to Boulder in ‘81 from Minnesota.
@@tomtheplummer7322 - Coincidence. I was born 10-11-59. Moved to Aspen in '81 from Queens, NY
And we'll miss you so much 'Christine Perfect'. What we have lost, has made Heaven shine ! Sing on, Songbird. RIP. May your loved ones find comfort from their loss, we are all bereft.
Eternity will not be about any or us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv You certainly do just for talking like its the 1500s.We will burn with anyone else who dosent agree with your quite frankly wierd belief system i suppose,a well as long as your ilk will live for all eternity🤣
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv Flagged as hate speech.
@@Canada_Dominium Flagged as woke cancel culture. Better complain to God. I'm just the messenger. "WE" means "ME" also. I hate myself too. 🙂For I am a sinner deserving of hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day to. But... praise God, I won't get what I deserve. I have believed and accepted what he did on the cross to save me from my sins.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv Get out of my notifications, you wastrel
She was so beautiful and a great musician. We will miss you.
She had a wonderful voice. Rest in peace.
The news gutted me. I grew up with Fleetwood Mac and her voice was so soothing and reassuring when things got low. I will miss her always 💔 💗
Your work helped make the world a brighter place for millions of us. We are grateful. Rest in peace, Christine McVie.
She was simply amazing
It is a true saying " You never know what you have untill its gone" What an awesome talent and Fleetwood Mac as a band was incredible.
But they never offered to die on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv I agree, yet I believe The Lord weeps over her loss as well. The bible says "There are many voices in the world, and none are without significance" This woman touched my life, and many others.
I felt sad when our late queen died, and I feel sad that Christine died - a fantastic talent.
RIP Chris Mc Vie.......Thankyou for the music, that you have enhanced my life with.
But it can't save your soul. Listen to ..."amazing Grace."
I've been playing her music recently because Chevrolet had used her song Everywhere to promote their EV's. RIP Christine
She was a wonderful singer, musician, and person. Just lovely. She will be missed.
Saw her first as Christine Perfect with Chicken Shack, for me her name was perfect because she was perfect, a beautiful lady and an amazing talent. R.I.P. Christine.
an iconic voice has passed away. thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful voice. Rip christine.
Hope she finally gets the recognition she deserves because a lot of people forget to mention her name when talking about the best Britain's produced. Rip Christine you gave the world more than enough, and we thank you for it ❤️
If she never accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior then she will get what she deserve like the rest of us born on this planet who have never made that decision for eternity. hell and the lake of fire on judgement day for eternity. Make the right choice.
Great post Riley.

I just find this news so very difficult to accept. I actually found it hard to believe she was 79 .Time is marching on way to fast but that's what happens when the body gains age, time speeds up .
Incredible person Ms. McVie was and will always be in all out minds, thank you Christine .
Heart of Fleetwood Mac.
A soothing voice and a lovely soul. Sleep peacefully, Christine 💋❤️
She was and still is, a treasure to the world.🐦💔
She never offered to die on a cross to save world from their sins. Only Jesus Christ did that. He paid the price for what we all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv 🤡you never offered to die on a cross to save world either.
But there is still time if you hurry .
From Australia with love to one of the most beautiful woman in music history
RIP. Wonderful singer. Fantastic band.
She was a bigger influence on music than many realize. We sure have lost some major talent this year! RIP Christine
I loved Christine. How can you not love this woman? Aside from the excellent music she contributed to the world, she was a beautiful lady and always the adult in the room. Bye, beautiful Songbird... ❤🙏😢
A class act all the way, so genuine. Very rare 💖
Sad to learn of the passing of Christine McVie, one of the greats of the Classic Roack era. Rest in peace, God bless.
The older she got, the more beautiful she became.
Great songwriter, underrated musician, and very beautiful lady ❤️
Like the video says, "she never sought the spotlight, but it sought her " So true and so refreshing and in my opinion she was the rock of Fleetwood Mac . Loved her songs and music and person . Rest in peace Christine and thank you and you are missed already .
High School would not have been the same in the 70's without FleetwoodMac. Her songs are imprinted on our minds forever.
Thank you Ms Perfect
May you Rest in Peace Christine and thank you for the music you gave us 🙏🌹
Thank you BBC for your time, care & respect in this report, RIP Christine McVie
My passed Mother told me: “We all go, just some of us know where we are going”. Christine is singing 🎤 with angels 😇🎶🙏🏻😎
So sad and such a loss… Beautiful voice and such a classy lady, you will be missed.❤️
My favorite Christine song is " Hold Me",and always in our memories!
I saw her life with Fleetwood Mac at the age of 73 a concert that I never will forget such a strong woman R.I.P Christine you will be sadly missed
Chtistine left an amazing legacy of some of the most touching lyrics ever written as well as a truly timeless vocal style.She will never be forgotten.Thank you songbird😢
But it won't save your soul.

R.I.P. Christine Mc Vie.Gone but not forgotten.
RIP songbird ❤️
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
I dont remember the press giving her the credit for writing all those hits or focusing on her talent that much in the 70's. She came from a musical family as well.
The songwriting is what sets a band/group apart.
I've heard so many people name their favourite British singers and Christine's name rarely comes up which is a huge shame as she's by far one of the greatest we've ever produced.
Always sad when one of your favourite artists passes but my god, she led a spectacular and charmed life! Raising a glass... ❤
But you missed when Billy Graham was there a few times. 😞
2022 is turning out to be another annus horribilis for famous musicians and hearing about Christine the heart break continues. I didn't even know she was ill.. RIP sweet lady. God rest your soul. 🙏

This is a shock. I read earlier that even Stevie Nicks didn't know she was sick.
Cancer?
We were all so lucky to have lived in the time of this supremely gifted woman's music. Thank you, Christine, for the joy that you gave to the world. Rest In Peace..............
Making people happy will not save your soul. Jesus Christ paid the price. All we have to do is accept what he did on the cross for our sins.
Epic lady - such an lifelong star. Love her and her voice. RIP
God created Christine, His masterpiece, and the universe's gift! Death has no sting for the Christine; thank you for your beautiful songs, Christine! God bless you, your family and the great, amazing Fleetwood Mac, band! your wonderful band! You all are iconic legends! Love and eternal respect! Blessings!
Christine was a member of the human race, evolved as we all did. She was a talented songwriter and singer. Makes me sad that she is gone but let’s keep the superstition out of it.
Hey Siri will know if she had faith in the Lord
Gods had F. all to do with it. Her hard work dedication and creativity all of which She worked at gave us the unforgettable pleasure
@@sethtenrec
What superstition? That's a Stevie Wonder song?
The woman has just died, can we leave God out of it and just admire her beautiful talent
One of the most humble and ultra-talented singer/songwriter/keyboardist that has ever lived. I have always adored you and I have lost a little jump in my step hearing this sad news. RIP sweet girl.
A great lost for the world. Great voice. She will be missed.
I felt really sad when I heard that Christine had gone. Her beautiful voice has been a part of my life for almost 50 years.
She lives on with her songs for us to enjoy now she is gone. RIP
Hello 👋how are you doing?
She added an element to the early Fleetwood Mac that was irreplaceable. I am deeply saddened because her music truly moved me.
She was a fantastic musician,... thank you for so many great songs.... R.I.P.
RIP Christine! Your wonderful music will live forever!
R.I.P. Chris was literally the heart beat of Fleetwood Mac. The best songwriter and also a brilliant musician and singer. We will all miss you…our Songbird 😂❤️❤️
Watching broadcasts about Christine this morning..... still more tears in my coffee....lost a piece of me heart and history... enamored with her angelic voice!
What a shock it was hearing that christine has died. It took me back to being 18 listening to fleetwoodmac all weekend long on a camping trip with mates. I'm 50 now and was lucky enough to see them at Wembley with my daughter. I adored her and feel really sad today. She was a truly understated english girl . Fly high songbird x

Most don’t have any idea how prolific her writing was… pure genius. RIP Ms McVie
True
Fleetwood Mac could not have been the force majeure without her. I am grateful for her having experienced her music and performances.
RIP
This is terrible news. She was an amazing songwriter, musician and singer. One massive regret is I never got to see her and Fleetwood Mac live. R. I.P Christine you will be truly missed.
It's heartbreaking to see such a beautiful soul having to depart from us. Christine gave us a gift that remains in our heart. She had such a great and storied career starting with the Spencer Davis group and working with Stevie Windwood. I'm playing her music today. May heaven guide you, Christine.
