The thing she said, about him and some stupid job, was the cutest thing ever heard!
Watching this clip makes me want to put Lindsey and Stevie in one room and talk it all out. You know. Lock the door nobody gets away till everything is sorted. That could be very interesting.
That's probably happened, many times
Mick Fleetwood is a legend. Having a “beer guy” to give him a sip while he plays.
...
that wasn't beer.
They didn't show the guy who shoves the coke up his nose, lol!
Lindsey has always been the wind beneath FM's wings. Sad that he had to be under rated, if you single him out you can really see how fantastic he has been. He's one of the greatest guitar players of all time.
I still listen to your music now I miss you use the Koran
Stevie and Lindsey are always going to be relevant because of the musical love filled lives they lead, it’s so rare to meet and fall in love and to do that with a person with the same passions as you is rare, and it tore apart. I think it’s a blessing they bestowed the music on us that Fleetwood Mac has, kinda makes me sad that Lindsey doesn’t note his own contributions to the band as significant or recognized, millions of fans love him and Stevie. I hope they feel our love for them, and I hope they reconcile peacefully before they leave this planet. I’m so glad fm was still so connected with Christine’s passing, and I hope they all get back together, at least in memoriam.
This quote from Stevie just killed me: "I think that Lindsey in his heart of hearts feels that, if we hadn't joined Fleetwood Mac, we'd probably still be together today. And he may very well be right."
It's strange to think that something that has brought so many people so much pleasure and happiness may be the very thing that shredded their relationship. That's the stuff of tragedy, right there! Somebody ought to make a movie! :)
I agree...💔💜
Stevie and Lindsey never would have stayed together! He's way too controlling for a free spirit like her. And he's jealous as hell of her talent - look how resentful he is in this interview, that her natural stage presence took the focus off him!
Yet she was always so supportive of him, even taking shitty, low paid cleaning jobs to pay the rent, so he could sit around all day playing guitar. He only insisted he wouldn't join Fleetwood Mac without her, because he wanted to be with her, and keep her under his control. He obviously never thought she'd dump him, and to add insult to injury, become this huge star!
Stevie said in a recent interview that she and Lindsey couldn't be friends after their split, while Mick Fleetwood remains her 'best friend' even after their broken love affair. Mick returned the compliment, saying Stevie and he are 'soul mates'. Now THAT'S love!
The music biz is very toxic, by nature, and encourages bad coping skills and behaviors. Not a lot of relationships can withstand that. As someone who has been there, it's beyond tragic.
Lindsay was very controlling and jealous. He wasn’t a good romantic partner. He had an ego. Too much of an ego perhaps. She was meant to shine always and he was trying to dim her.
@@glamdolly30 i don't think so. Everyone has relationship's struggles. I think you're right on her "free spirit", but free spirits don't fit for solid relationships. She has it problem. The showbiz draw her, and she as free as is felt colder and colder... There are so many cases like this in life... Mainly nowadays. Nobody wants to afford "losing liberty" in order a something "bigger". Anyways... That's what I think that happened .
I honestly love the dynamics between Lindsey and Stevie. I don't know why, but they are just a very, very fascinating pair and I can't quite get bored of them. Probably a huge reason why the band was such a huge success as well, aside from the music and OF COURSE Christine. :)
No Stevie. It didn't JUST happen. You were BORN to be a star!
In my opinion it was Lindsey who made it happen.
@@hutchinson1972 lmao. How sad of a woman to think that of another woman.
As someone who worships Lindsey Buckingham all this footage is so great to watch!! I just saw the Mac in London amazing show, the whole band were great but Lindsey stole the show by his amazing guitar playing!! True happiness watching him play and sing live and being that close to him!! It was emotional!!
jamilh1 I agree...I’m a Lindsey fan ..not Stevie....
How the hell could you not be a fan of Stevie Nicks!!
Magical Soulmates.
what a man Lindsay is .. a pure treasure of a soul
Actually. They called LINDSEY and he was the one who said you take us both or neither.
Lindsey Buckingham is goddamn genius period.
You're VERY welcome. Thanks for all of your kind comments!! By the way, I'm actually a right-handed person. (lol) I do my smiles that way to be different. (:
This was a fantastic video! Thank you for sharing it. I hope Stevie writes a book ~ her love affair is so tender and warm with Lindsey ~ I am addicted to watching them and learing about their love. Thanks again!
I read mick Fleetwood book a long time ago and that was really good. I wish I had bought it so I could read it again...I think I checked it out from the library back then
I think that in my brain somewhere I see them as a couple despite all of the the other relationships they have each had. They are probably more "married" than a lot of married people. They have certainly been through enough together. They are like a greek tragedy in so many ways.
This is my favorite interview. Thank you, Jackie!
I love their album 💗 🎶 "Buckingham Nicks" 🎶. It's a really great album! The song Silver Spring is really lovely.
Thanks so much!! Glad that you LOVE this one as much as I do. I LOVE the both of them too!! (:
Ironically the various relationships and breakups within Fleetwood Mac created tremendous songs and lyrics. Without them the band may have been milquetoast.
That was great, Thank you and hi from Madrid.
Never seen it, awesome! thank you
Stevie's great. But Lindsey's is the genius behind the group. Fantastic guitar licks and great vocals. What a shame they aren't together. Oh, Don't forget Christine. Her vocals are some of the best in the group's catalog..
I will always be more of a Lindsay fan. He's such a Brilliant musician and producer.
Kevin Horsley m too... Lindsey Buckingham is brilliant
I support Lindsey Buckingham...
Me too.
stevie nick's and lindsey buckingham and are were the real backbone to fleetwood mac's great success . this is clearly demonstrated through the amazing album's starting with the white album . rumours . tusk . mirage . tango in the night . etc .
Sometimes watching them talk, like on the DVD Destiny Rules, it seems like Stevie still holds a candle for him. I could be wrong, but I think if he were single... they'd be together. I think Lindsey is a true artist and would never sell out to please anyone. Gift of Screws is amazing.
Elm TreeABC I agree with you completely! I live their music but Lindsey is my favorite!
Elm you are a liar
Nope. He wanted to get back with her after The Dance and she said no. Read the lyrics to Thrown Down, it’s about it.
The person who lost out was Stevie...Plenty of rock stars have families
Nace Camdress - No Elm isn’t!!
I never saw this! thank yoU!!!!
That album sold, I know 1 for sure, I was singing right along with it back then, and still do
Glad to hear that!! Thanks so much!! (:
Bradley Cooper could definitely play him in a movie
I feel like he’d be too tall
But Bradley C was born a biological woman... so no freaking way
who would play Stevie
@@bradspicks omg for real!!? I swear I never knew that
@@shonamagouyrksaffold4109 Yes indeed he/she is. Is all part of the twisted and weird HollyWeird ways. Half the leading ladies were born bio-logical men.
THANKS for your wonderful comment!! I TOTALLY agree with you. (:
Interesting clips. Stevie is a very tough character, despite the ethereal image. I think she enjoys her status now and the limelight. Personally, I prefer Lindsey, he's written a lot of my favourite FM songs and his solo music. I would say he's quite fragile though as a person. extremely sensitive and shy in some ways - fame doesn't interest him as much as being a musician.
Lindsey Buckingham shy? He has an ego bigger than God! Every member of Fleetwood Mac clashed with his crazy, narcissistic self at some point, not just Stevie!
Fact is he never forgave her for dumping him in 1976, and then becoming a huge star with way more natural charisma, star quality and stage presence than he had.
No question he's an incredible musician - like EVERY member of Mac, that's what made them a supergroup. But there's no escaping the fact he was at the centre of pretty much every fight the band ever had.
You're VERY welcome. Glad that you enjoyed this one. Thanks so much for your comment!! (:
I love her face
I'll always be on team Lindsey
why? are you ok with violence against women?
There is no violence towards women . Desperate people trying to sell books do not always tell the truth .
@dilayurdadoner6895 SO IF WHAT U SAID IS TRUE WHY WAS SN HOOKING UP IN 97 WITH LB DURING THE DANCE TOUR?? BOTH ADMITTED IT.... ANSWER????
I LOVE that one part too!! I agree, that is very sweet!! (:
I feel the same way that you do, regarding Lindsey & Stevie. Thanks for your great comment and for watching my video!! (:
It's funny, as talented as Lindsey is, I've always felt there's an undercurrent of self-doubt there, and that kind of prevented him from becoming a 'star.' Stevie and he were both vital to Fleetwood Mac, and I think she believed that he was a major talent more than he did. Fascinating rock and roll couple, to be sure....
Wow you sense that too?!.I've always sensed self doubt there too. Lindsey is suuuch a talent. If he was a sexy, hot chick he'd be bigger than Stevei. But I love them both :)
And THATS why I love Lindsay. As a musician I have my style and tricks but in no way do I consider myself to be a virtuoso guitarist or songwriter. I relate to that aspect of lindsay's personality.
Joseph Caranante They are both talented but she wrote so much more than Lindsay. Check out Fleetwood Mac demos of The Chain, Dreams & Gold Dust Woman. Those are Stevie's songs originally & she wrote so many hits even while the band belittled her (angel outtakes & tusk recording in the studio). She has all the fame & fortune in the world but she doesn't have Lindsay. He loves her truly but can't get past his anger & jealousy toward her for being more famous, something she's never let her to her head. Lindsay is incredibly talented & an amazing guitarist & I wish he would be secure enough to not be in competition with Stevie in songwriting & singing. Jealousy holds no place in love but it's in rock and roll unfortunately. I know. 🎶💗🎶.
@@musiclovetara you are absolutely wrong! Lindsay wrote more hits than stevie and has way more talent. Did you not watch the video? Not only that they only wanted Lindsay in the beginning. Also the chain was written by the whole band. Stevie owes her hole career to lindsay. Stop letting your feminism clog your brain!
Joseph caranante... your feelings are wrong and you have no clue about lindsay or Fleetwood mac!
Well said. Thanks for your great comment!! (:
I totally feel the same way that you do about them.
Thanks for your GREAT comment and for viewing my video!! (:
I totally agree with you. Very well said!! Thanks so much for your comment!! (:
That's AWESOME!! Thanks for your GREAT comment!! (:
You're VERY welcome. Thank you for your comment!! (:
Thanks for your great comment!! By the way, glad to know that Lindsey stole another show. (:
I agree. Thanks for your great comment!! (:
Still jamming out! 2019😘
Love Stevie and Love Fleetwood Mac. One of greatest bands ever. Thank you for the music and memories. Roger Crowder in Burnet, Texas
The journey of this musicians drop from there label but they believe in there dreams and music and so glad they never stop chasing there music goals ..
You're VERY welcome. Thanks so much for your comment!! (:
You're VERY welcome. Thank you for watching my video and for your comment!! (:
I still find it hard to believe they're working together again.
You're VERY welcome. THANK YOU for viewing my video!! (:
Fleetwood Mac will always be my great wild teen days
I love both their faces 😍
Look how absolutely LUSCIOUS Stevie Nicks looked at 0:40. Never seen her like that...
Stevie has incredible star quality, charisma and stage presence. That's God-given, you can't manufacture it. It wasn't her fault the focus fell on her - she's a fabulous performer, and a star to her fingertips.
It's disappointing Lindsey was narcissistic and petty enough to have such professional jealousy and rivalry with her - Stevie was not into it! She just wanted to get out there, do her best, and perform the best she possibly could.
His anger with her was double edged - personal and professional. He never forgave her for ending their romantic relationship in 1976. But more than that, he couldn't forgive her for the magic she exuded onstage, that took the focus and praise from him. Wanna see the ultimate, big-league, off the scale narcissist? Look no further than Lindsey Buckingham!
Over the decades, Lindsey's massively inflated ego caused frequent frictions and blow ups - and not only with Stevie! He did not mellow with the years, as proved when 'Fleetwood Mac' collectively got sick of his diva shit and fired him in 2018.
Funny how some comments here reflect this dumb myth that Lindsey's 'the genius' of the group, 'Stevie would be nothing without him' etc - totally ignoring the fact she wrote a huge chunk of Fleetwood Mac's biggest hits! She also has, arguably the most distinct and incredible voice of the group, and certainly the most magnetic stage presence.
The reason Stevie Nicks' contribution to 'Fleetwood Mac' is downplayed and Lindsey Buckingham's is exaggerated? Sexism, plain and simple.
Hi Stevie
The picture at :38, whoosh, she was hot....
yes!
She definitely was smokin' in the 70's.
i just love both..i sincerely wish they go together..you know..they each accepts that they made mistakes but they love each other..they are about 70 years old now and i think they should be together and relax about their egos..i sincerely think they love each other..their love is so bit they hate each other for loving each other so much..take it easy estivie and lindsey..keep writing great songs and doing shows and love each other..
Sang you all my life YOU ARE MY LIFE MY QUEEN take me with you
I will always always love Fleetwood Mac my wild Teen days my great wild team days take me with you my queen Truelove love never really really dies come on come on let's get another Buckingham and nicks album out there for the true fans one for the road to cherish
You are Great! together are greater!
She's the best ever! ❤
I don't think Fleetwood mac would of made it that big without stevie, for sure
VOICE of the ANGEL FACE of HEAVEN MY QUEEN
I have to say that for me Fleetwood Mac was always Lindsey Stevie and Chirstine..John and Mick are great musicians too but it was reallyt the vocalists and songwriters in the band that turned me on to them. Now that Christine has left and will never go back...I think I'd like Lindsey and Stevie to go back to BuckinghamNicks, when FM is not recording or touring, and produce some great music together.
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL TRUE EARTH GODDESS
Today show on NBC April 2003.
What gets me is when stevie nicks said when he wanted too put me and lindsey in the band that's not true they all just wanted lindsey buckingham for his guitar work but lindsey said you have to take my girlfriend too stevie nicks.
It will always be: NICKS & BUCKINGHAM!
i know right?!
no it will always be fleetwood mac.. without band they be nothing as they said they was droped by there record label
Without Buckingham now....damn
Big mistake.
I love them together so much, even though he is married with kids. I secretly want him to divorce his wife and get back with Stevie so they will be together for the rest of the time they have left on the planet. I still think this will happen. I know it's not a fair statement, but one that I always feel.
I’m with you on that one they are soulmates known each other since high school
I wish it happens too.They are still in love....everyone can see it
And now he's divorcing his wife omg Who knows what's gonna happen
What???? Where did you hear that???
@@Funkyjcp wiki says "Kristen Messner filed for divorce from Buckingham in Los Angeles on June 2, 2021", that's the latest news
TRUE EARTH GODDESS BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL TRUE EARTH GODDESS
MY QUEEN take me with you
They were all so hot in the 70s & 80s 🔥
That presenter guy is going places.
I'll never stop loving you my queen take me with you happy birthday my queen rock on
Hey, it’s Matt the Dirtbag
@Funkyjcp I feel totaly the same!
Does anyone know where the footage starting at 1:23 is from?
A pile of money, drugs and fame is hard on a person. It can be the kiss of death for a relationship.
Stevie Nicks reminds me of Carrie Fisher.
That is pretty pious in regards to Stevie saying "I could do a stupid job I't does'nt bother me"
Sounds like you’re a little butt hurt at the suggestion that Stevie nicks could step back from “brilliant singer song writer/voice of a generation” and do something more “stupid” than that like washing dishes. What’s wrong? Did you give up your stupid dreams of music to do something great like wash dishes? Lol
I was born this year 😅
Can't we all just get along?
This is no Interview, it is a film.
Lindsey packaged Stevie saying she is beautiful the lead singer and no one can see me … however he had his chance to prove it on his solo work but it never took off like Stevie’s did but I can see why he is upset it’s like putting your blood sweat and tears into something and this beautiful blonde gets 99% of the credit
Imagine you could say that Stevie Nicks cleaned your house one time 😂
She cleaned studios not houses
I have a stupid job
They would have made beautiful and talented children
How did she get her hair to grow so long? Does she wear extensions?
TheWhereyouare not her hair....
TheWhereyouare , that was her real hair... she never went to hair dressers. She cut her own hair back then.
Was Stevie wearing pants in that clip?!?
2019: Stevie throws Lindsey under the bus.. without any new songs coming out.. she doesn’t need him anymore..
sadly she was singled out like that ,cause really they were all very talented,there was no one star,they all shone in this band,i think the money people do this,cause this jealouseys between them and it was great for them,they just want edthe moneybut they ruin good bands,they are a band ,not the stevie nicks show ,never was for me and my friends ,we liked the whole band,we love stevie ,lindsey,john,christine,mick all the same ,we are the fans of course,we are here cause we love there music
@tinwoods ya i was and no she wasnt to us ,we loved the whole band the same stevie too ,it was magical and only can be with them together in music not love but music
It’s fair to say Lindsey is over his love with Stevie. It was what it was but people still like to assume he’s still in love with her.
Oh the sexism
I’m so glad i wasn’t the only one who noticed that!! Not 1ce in the multiple introductions they did they even mentioned that stevie was a songwriter? Of almost all of their hits?
Lindsey u r famous I don't look at Stevie that way They both r talented The songs r all beautiful in their own way
Where is Stevie from?
She will always be a back up to Lindsey... he is the genius behind the music and she knows it...Sorry Stevie
but together ,they shone like a brilliant star as one in music,they just fit together in song ,hope to hear it again one day,cause thats what we fell in love with,those two singing there love hate songs for each other and christine and john and then what mick was doing with stevie ,it was a real rockin time
Back up, okay. She's the first and only female inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of fame 2 times, both with FM and now as a solo artist. I wouldn't call that back up to anyone.... Fine if she's not your favorite artist or her music doesn't connect with you, but that doesn't relegate her to back up status.
Flochavira Joseph Caranante They are both talented but she wrote so much more than Lindsay. Check out Fleetwood Mac demos of The Chain, Dreams & Gold Dust Woman. Those are Stevie's songs originally & she wrote so many hits even while the band belittled her (angel outtakes & tusk recording in the studio).

Lindsay is incredibly talented & an amazing guitarist & I wish he would be secure enough to not be in competition with Stevie in songwriting & singing. Jealousy holds no place in love but it's in rock and roll unfortunately. I know. 🎶💗🎶.
Tara Pilos - You do realize that Lindsey had to arrange her songs.. Even Tom Petty in a long ago interview stated that only Lindsey could understand & arrange her songs..
Flochavira Stevie is FM
She is so damn beautiful,
i dont get it stevie says theres 12 songs on buckingham nicks but theres only ten??
They released B-Sides to the 2 singles...Frozen Love and Long-Distance Winner.
K But Stevie love ya and all But,,,, in other interviews your always dogging him.........Why?
he gave up coke she could not
Even in this interview she dogs him by basically saying that she was classier with her breakup song than he was with his.
If it wasn't for Lindsey Stevie Nicks would never be this big. I love Stevie I do.but Lindsey is one hell of a guitar player. If He didn't take Stevie along when they joined fm Stevie probably wouldn't be as big. I don't know what all went wrong in their personal life who cheated first..........But in every Video I see just about, she's dogging him. While he just sits back and asks cool lol. I respect Lindsey and Stevie. but she could at least say every once in a while He's a great man.
+eville62 thank mic fleetwood and fleetwood Mac band for saving both of them.
eville62 yeah she always whining about the injustice from other band members...maybe just does it to justify becoming the most famous member of the group? although she has admitted in past interviews that Lindsey's among others really helped shape and mold her little songs into something special....even in her solo work she has a team of clarifiers and musicians and producers who help her look great...but you know they say the way to success is to surround yourself with top people!
