This song is a true classic and pure gold. This song is as awesome as the lady who sang it and wrote it. You are a national treasure, Christine McVie RIP.
Christine was a true songbird. Her voice is near angelic and her songs are my Mac-favorites. I hope your changes /passing loss is eased. My heart-break song is Don Henley's 'Heart of the Matter'.... - "- And I thought of all the bad luck, the struggles we went through - how I lost me and you lost you ; what are these voices outside love's open door - - - - There are people in your life who've come and gone - they let you down, you know they hurt your pride , You better put it all behind you, 'cause life goes on' if you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside.... I've been trying to get down to the Heart of the Matter , but my will gets weak - and my thoughts seem to scatter - but I think it's about forgiveness - Forgiveness." (and grace).....
For my Michelle 1946--2024.....Jan 13 I tried so hard....but you left me...WE fought breast and brain cancer together and it was my honor to quit my job and care for you......Rest in peace Honey.....Christine too....😢...The songbirds are singing
this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written ... Christine McVie is one of the most criminally underrated vocalists/performers/writers in the history of music
I could not agree more , fleetwood mac was always viewed as stevie/lindsey, some many of their hits were from christie . What a gift she was and what a loss . RIP songbird . Brutal.
Stevie got a lot of the attention in this band but to me, this woman was the real gem. She makes me melt. Beuty, grace, her playing, her writing and that VOICE.
❤❤❤ yup her real last name summed it up.. Perfect.. I can’t even type her voice makes me cry. I hate I never got to see them live as it was my moms fave band and she’s gone too. I doubt they’ll ever tour again without Christine which is very understandable so I’m glad these old vids exist
Stevie makes a good back up singer. This Gal was the person who held this band together and made them sound professional. Really I think Stevie was good for the band, but in my estimation, not even remotely the talent of Christy.
@@Comet-hn3gm Back up singer? What nonsense. All 5 members were crucial to the band’s success. You can celebrate Christine’s great talent without making silly statements like the one with the most successful solo career is really just a “back up singer.”
You know it doesn’t have to be a contest between the two women in the band. It wasn’t a contest for them personally, not anything like that, so why must the fans make it one? It’s stupid really.
RIP, Christine McVie. This is one of my most favorite songs of all time. You were a magnificent singer in one of the greatest bands. Saw you in concert in the 90s reunion tour. You will be remembered.
This is my wife's favorite song. It reminds her of the son she gave up at fifteen. She was the victim of a violent sexual battery when she was fourteen. I was in Boot Camp when this happened. This is a tough song.
My dad passed away two weeks ago, he absolutely LOVED fleetwood mac and this was played at his funeral. Crying listening to it now. Miss you forever daddyo 💜
It's one i want for mine too. I know it's a love song but the melody and Chrissie's voice is sheer perfection. Each time i listen to it i end up in tears!
My first dance with my wife at our wedding was to Songbird. A month later, we saw Fleetwood Mac at Boston Garden. I will always remember the tears in her eyes as Christine sang the song. Thank you Christine, we love you.
I told my late wife one night during our 24th year together when she was struggling to find the words, that I think this song says how she felt for me, after listening, both of us crying she said yes, exactly! I miss you baby girl, so much!
Pregnant and alone this song used to reinforce that I wasn't "alone".... My sweet baby girl kept me company in my most trying time's and this song helped me get thru it and now looking back 12 yrs later this song always brings me back to playing it on a lawn chair rubbing my very pregnant belly while my baby kicked💞🙌talk about a trip down memory lane.... This song brings out so much emotions but mostly of triumph🤰👩👧
This song tears my heart out every time I hear it, it reminds me of my first wife who passed away from cancer. Now when I hear it, I'll think of Christine ,RIP your beautiful soul.
Perfect.. Ms Christine Perfect.. that’s exactly what she was.. ew a tear just hit my big toe lol but she was amazing and such a goal for young ladies with her talent and she was the ULTIMATE LADY ❤❤❤
RIP Christine McVie my favorite songwriter. Thank you for your beautiful songs that have filled my soul for the past 50 years. Glad to have seen you with the complete band in San Jose few years back. Can't write anymore, tears are clouding my vision.
Christine Mc Vie R.I.P 11/30/22 Folsom Field Boulder Colorado August of 1977 my first time I heard you sing we Love you songbird Sweet heart! My dad passed away 3/21/07 he took me & my brother to that concert & time stood still when Fleetwood Mac played!
What a talent. I always loved her voice. I know she was famous but I always thought she was an underrated songwriter. So many timeless songs. A beautiful, classy woman. RIP Reply
I am listening to this song with tears streaming down my face, I am utterly heartbroken after hearing of Chris' passing. She was always my favorite and the very heart and soul of the Mac. Rest in peace dear lady, I love and miss you.

Lost my mom 2 weeks ago to a heart attack. This song always made me feel it was made for her. Outside of Jesus, she was the kindest soul God ever put on this Earth. Its alright mom.
I’m so sorry for your loss.. I know it’s very hard for you right now. But believe me, although it seems impossible now, you will find strength and your pain will lessen with time. Our loved ones never leave us if we keep them in our heart and mind. Your mother will be with you every time you think of her or talk to her. ❤

people might wonder if their kind words help a stranger reading them, Nicole, they do, thank you.
The fact that this song came to her one night while she slept… she just got up and wrote it on the piano word for word… so magical… so so incredibly mystical… Fleetwood Mac magic 🪄 FOREVER YOU WILL LIVE ON CHRISTINE WE LOVE YOU 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
When I think of Christie [McVie] this is the first song comes to mind. I've seen Fleetwood Mac 3 times and each time she sat down at the piano and I knew I was going to hear. Hearing of her passing breaks my heart. Rest In Peace
This song is a true classic and pure gold. This song is as awesome as the lady who sang it and wrote it. You are a national treasure, Christine McVie RIP.
Christine Perfecta.
This was played at my dear late wife's funeral. Then a few days later Christine McVie passed away. This song rips me to pieces and heals me.

Bless you brother !
Yes, I can chime with that. Same scenario, same emotions. Taken away.
Empathy
If you can’t cry during this song you don’t have a heart.
ball my eyes out uncontrollably every time
Agreed
Stevie Nicks was great but give me Christine McVie every day all day. Just gorgeous, amazing voice. Love everyone of the FM songs she sang.
I played this beautiful all night in 2001 when my Mother passed away taking her last breath holding her in my arms. RIP Christine......
❤❤❤❤
GOD bless you dear one. My mom passed on my arms July 2005. She loved this song and was one of 3 I sang her home to. We will All meet someday.💔🙏🎶
so so sorry. Be glad as she was, that you were there.
RIP ,this is soo sad ,believe me I see this day coming too
R I P Christine.

Christine was a brilliant singer/songwriter. She was also a beautiful person ❤😊
I played this for my mother at her funeral and I sometimes I go to cemetery and play her her favorite songs. And drink together till daylight
A timeless song. One of the most beautiful songs ever. No one does this like Christine
Well you would be wrong about that.
Eva Cassidy owns this song.
@@1031E ....I'm glad someone told the truth!!
@@1031E That's the first person I thought of, too. Eva was amazing and gone way too soon.
That one song alone puts her in my top five favourite female singers of all time. What a rich sounding voice. Just a beautiful tone.
This is just sad 😪😪😪😪😪😪😪 RIP 🙏 Christine. GOD BLESS YOU.
Farewell Christine McVie - 11/30/2022
