Staring into his eyes saying "..the sound of my voice will haunt you. you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you" holyyyy s**tttt
It’s crazy to watch isn’t it? And you know it has to haunt him now! Though he is married and all- Stevie struggled with and for him and as we all do, treated her bad in his immaturity. It takes some longer to love the right way and not take people for granted- to even know what true love is. She did love him- and he loved her back the same- I just think everything got in the way. I feel grateful they put their emotions to paper and music so we could enjoy what their unfortunate heartbreak made- the most raw and magical music I’ve ever heard. Reality made it too difficult to be together but their music tells us, in a perfect world, they definitely should have been
It was going to be on Rumours but Mic Fleetwood didn't think it fit with Rumours, and he had to take Stevie aside and break it to her. She was super angry because this song was written for Lyndsey as a song to remind him that he will always hear her voice on the radio and never really be able to be free of her.
I think she's hoping she can keep it together herself. Can you imagine being one of the people on that stage performing that song and making it happen? With Stevie and Lindsey out front creating that emotional tempest for all the world to see? I'm sure it must have been thrilling for everyone.
@ Michael W And I was thinking that i hope CHRISTINE can keep it together that night. She was in the middle of an extreme emotional breakdown of her own and I dont think she performed after that.
She was going through a divorce herself at the same time with another band mate. It hit close to home for her. I’m not sure if her divorce was before or after Stevie and Lindsey’s breakup but she was married to someone else in the band. They both went through it
I'd have to agree, 100%. I believe it's because they're finally clean & sober at this point, thus being able to let their unclouded emotions & performance shine.🤘
That’s the crazy thing about it. Because she is who she is, she knows he won’t be able to escape her. Whether it be in a hotel lobby or on the radio in the car, Stevie will show up. I love it. It’s the perfect f-u to an ex. Your gonna have to hear me on the radio the rest of your life and ha ha
Tony Santos I’m 12 yrs old, but I would have loved to have been there. It’s their best live performance and as a musician my self, music is very special to me.
The Dance was probably one of their best ever performances! You're so lucky you got to see this in the flesh.. I'm 28, and get goosebumps listening to The Dance live version of everything.
@@carloo69 Trust me, I feel luckier than ever that I didn't turn down my brother-in-law when he told me he had an extra pass for the taping. I was up to my neck with work but decided to go anyway. Wise decision on my part. I was completely blown away by it.
@@tonysantos1778 I was 19 that year, when the Dance tour was happening, and I passed it up (can't even remember why now)... I've been kicking myself ever since!
Does anybody else get misty eyed, and/or chills, when watching this powerful performance. Early in the song Lindsey stealing glances at Stevie while she sang, later in the song Stevie glancing at Lindsey... Then, the undeniable stare each share with one another. So powerful, coming from a place so real.
@@scotthockenberry3085 This was a show. i love this beautiful song. The arrangement was perfect. But this tormented love affair between Stevie and Lindsey? Get over it. The have.
A perfect observation. It's like we pulled up a chair at a table where thet were pouring out their hearts to each other. We don't know their busness but, as observed by many others there's always going to be something between these two.
Even to this day, they still say that the other is the love of their life. It's a shame they couldn't make it work. This is a haunting song. The way they were singing to each other is mesmerizing.
+theclassicgamer Not quite right. They each say the Stevie/Lindsay story will never be finished but he is happily married and she went on record saying that Joe Walsh (not Don Henle) was the love of her life. I still believe these two will always have something special between them. I actually feel Lindsay has the most feelings. Stevie has said he blames FM for their break up.
Oh, in interviews even now when talking about his life he mentions the photographer that became his wife, mother of his children as his "soulmate"... I'm sure he wants to mean it, for her sake, and I'm sure it sounds good to her-- but he's not fooling anyone but himself.
"I'll follow you down til' the sound of my voice will haunt you" Goddamn...could anyone have sung that line with more meaning than the iconic voiced Stevie Nicks? Christine's vocals and harmony takes it to another level. Not the same when she is missing. Fleetwood Mac forever!!!

When they start singing the song to each other, the way they can't take their eyes off each other, it's definitely powerful. You can't help but get chills, and you have to wonder what they were both thinking at that moment. Classic performance. Not just musically, but visually.
+ Jason Mucci Throughout the song she was always glancing for a peek for his reaction and never got it until the end when they sorta dueted. As they sang the lyrics they spoke in Body language and all, and break it off abruptly to end the song.
By far the best performance that I've ever witnessed by the Great Fleetwood Mac, the whole show was amazing but this performance stoled the night, I watch this DVD on a regular basis,RIP Christine you are the Songbird 🕊️
The sheer, overwhelming emotion and power of Stevie's voice on display here is beyond incredible!! The fire in her eyes near the end of the song when she almost glares at Lindsey is almost too heartbreaking to watch. A masterful performance and once in a lifetime performance.
This was always the wife and my song. One time we were separated and she had contacted me and asked for our wedding book back. So I sent it off but on the back page I wrote, I’ll follow you down till the sound of my voice will haunt you. You’ll never get away from the sound of the man that loves you, over and over. She said she read it and cried and we reconciled. She’s the love of my life and this song epitomises the strength of that love. I love you Kell.
Music/poetry has a way of expressing feelings that standard communication can’t. To me, it’s a direction connection to God, which is why it is so powerful. You may feel different, but either way, I’m happy for you!
In this video, the way they look into each other's eyes, between 4:25 & 4:31, you can tell that there's still a love there that's shone through the ages & will never, ever die.
I've seen this performance before, and owned the album since '97. But seeing it now, older and wiser, I can't believe this performance. The tension, pain, even anger, is unreal. This has to be one of the greatest performances of all time. A renewed respect for Fleetwood Mac. As if they needed it.
From 4:10 Stevie singing 'you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you' has got to be the most heartbreaking, spine chilling performance I have ever witnessed - find me something to compare it with... ill wait.....
So raw and powerful. This is their best performance ever. Am I the only one who kinda feels bad for Lindsay's wife? She must be an incredible woman to watch something like this and be able to keep on going. Because this right her is real and raw.
If you don't get goose bumps when Stevie & Lindsey trade verses at the end you are not human & spiritual...what brilliance & beauty they bring....you simply can not top this! Legendary! ;) The Mac 4 ~ Eva!
I guess we all have our Lindsey or Stevie. This song makes me cry every time thinking about what could have been and what was. This is beautiful and haunting all the same.
Love this song . I think the piano is so major . Bless Christine. She was such an important part of the success of this band and I'm sure they all know it. It's just that she wound up sharing the stage with a woman who was probably the most famous female front singer in a generation. I think this iteration of FM; the two couples and Mick was the band at it's best.
Oh, Stevie. Glancing toward Lindsey, repeatedly, searchingly...and then when he deigns so return her eye-lock, the electricity between them is every bit as fierce as ever. Goddamn. How could you not love Stevie?
The Mac at their best: emotional and raw. They had an uncanny ability to reach the deepest levels of the personal feelings we all share. I don't think they set out to do this, it just happened and they set it to record. Lucky for all of us.
The extended look that Stevie and Lindsey share with one another breaks my heart for each of them every time. They were horrible to each other, but that look shows how much they loved each other and still how raw the nerves are between the two. You cant act that out; that’s real life, which is why it’s so powerful every time I watch this.
I could watch this day and night. Seriously, doesn't get any better than this! Stevie and Lindsey's love is still such a powerful and unmistakable bond. This video is proof positive of that! Love me some Fleetwood Mac!
and I feel like Stevie's saying to Lindsey that this song is about you and that I won't ever let you forget it. Such raw emotion and honesty. The fact that they go through this emotional venting each night n tour is either cathartic or torture...still a phenomenal prerformace.
The way Stevie and Lindsey steal looks at one another is so powerful when they did this song. Anybody that knows the history gets it. This rendition shakes me to the core every time I watch it. Stevie nails it!
Lindsey Buckingham, if he can withstand this and Landslide in one show and not crumble into a blubbering mess, has to be the strongest willed man in the world.
Awesome song! I love this version of Silver Springs. I always end up bawling by the time the song is over. I don't know why. I'm not in a relationship with anyone. Some songs have that affect on me.
They were very focussed on each other. I love to watch these two interact while singing, you can see their intimate connection, and you can see they are communicating with each other through the music. Writing and then singing these songs are definitely healing and therapeutic for Stevie. Lindsey seems supportive even if he did totally crush her heart.
She dumped him. I suppose he really must have pissed her off for her to write that song to him. He was and still is brokenhearted. He is madly in love with Nicks and she is stabbing him straight through his heart with her eyes, voice and emotions on stage. Wow, these two are a force of nature.
Lindsey and Stevie are our modern-day Romeo and Juliet. Fleetwood Mac casts a spell on all of us. Those five people, at the time they came together, it was for us.
One of their best live performances! Lindsey’s solo is chef’s kiss! Then Stevie staring in his eyes as she sings the song she wrote to him about him! Bravo! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'll never forget being there that night. An innocent high school student who's life would be forever altered by the magical forces of live music....to this day, the best live performance I've ever seen.
Utterly otherworldly is how I describe the effect this particular song has on me. It comes from a place of purity, passion and the power that music has on us. The universal language of love and hearts being their most vulnerable. Silver Springs gets under my skin, makes itself completely at home and fills in the cracks, just for a few moments anyway 💜💜
I agree. When I watch this I can tell they are both really hurting. Nicks is stabbing him through the heart with this song and he has to stand there and take it. I would not be able to handle that.
Twenty years after Rumours, the love, hate, tension, and genius of Fleetwood Mac came together for this gem. Now, almost twenty years after The Dance, it is still just as powerful. The interaction between Stevie and Lindsey is just legendary, and if it weren't for that love, hate and tension, Fleetwood Mac would not be the force that it is. Kudos to such a great band!
Living this nightmare since 1993. Been listening to this hauntingly hypnotic, gut wrenching, soul crushing truth for 23 consecutive hours. Best day of my life.
Great live version of this song. Steve's vocal performance is very strong, but for me Fleetwood Mac really soars vocally with the harmony of Stevie, Lindsay & Christine, as during the chorus. Those three voices fit so well ...
The ecstasy on Mick Fleetwoods face tells the story of how amazing this song is. Add to that when Stevie and Lindsay sing to each other at the end. My god, you really have it all in one song.
Haunting Vocals and the eye contact between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham, given their past romance is very telling of a Love that has probably never gone away completely. Fleetwood Mac at their best here.
Kevin Stailey agreed. this song has deep meaning that none of us will probably ever know. these 2 had a connection between them that was like fire. love love love this song.
when I first saw this video concert on VH1 I was mesmerized by the power of this song and the obvious feelings between Lindsay and Stevie, it was all still there, the hurt, the past between them. She is really letting him have it!
You just said it perfectly. Lindsey's completely underrated playing, Christine's beautiful piano playing & harmonizing vocals. But to me, it's the way Stevie pours her heart & soul out to Lindsey that makes this my favorite Fleetwood Mac song of them all.
This performance is one of my all time favourite live performances. The chemistry between them is undeniable. The verses at the end are sang from the heart into the other's soul. ♥
How she stares him down when she says “you’ll never get away” as long as your in the band you’ll never get away from the woman that loved you, it’s bone chilling
+PoliteTia I know. I find it strange that people think LIndsey is still in love with Stevie. I'm sure he loves his wife. I think what they do on stage is an act, and people think "they're still in love."
+Lisa D. Friendship still has love, just in a different way, just like we love our kids. I'm sure they still love each other but they aren't "in love". It's not always an act when people acknowledge how they feel for each other and there is an obvious affection onstage and I think it's great, and I doubt it's an act. It's called awesome friendship.
TheSeeker1960 I think they love each other too, and I think the affection is real. I do think they are putting on a show when they are singing to each other in a duet with all the love gestures and antics. And then people read into it saying things like, "It's obvious they belong to each other." or "You can see it in their eyes." etc. etc. Stevie once said in an interview, "It's a show when we're on stage."
As I watch this video over and over again, I never take for granted that 1/2 the success of the video is the camera shots and how perfectly timed it was, when at first, he would look at her when she wasnt looking and vice versa. And as the song intensifies, their eyes lock and you can see their entire history together in those few moments.
So many comment on Stevie and Lindsey and their stirring performances, and well-deserved. But, this is a great example of Mick's virtuoso drumming. Listen carefully. He is one of the all-time best!
I've only ever been to 1 concert in my life and I'm so happy that it got to be The dance 1997.. Broken back, in a wheel chair and all and still the best night of my life to date. 💗💗

Don't you know that shit 👌
This version is to die for. Beats the original recording. For a band to do that 20 years after recording it is just astounding.
Yes I agree, love listening to this love version than the original
I'd have to agree, 100%. I believe it's because they're finally clean & sober at this point, thus being able to let their unclouded emotions & performance shine.🤘
The outtake version from Rumours deluxe beats this one down for me!
100!!!! So right! @J.Daniel Stone
Oh for sure. I always listen to this version over the album version
honestly one of the best performances of anything ever

VERY well-said! :)
This is music history as good as all the storytellers like Bob Dylan and Bob Seger and to me I'll rate it up there Eric Clapton and Kiss performances

Magical
I love the fact that she sings it right to his face!!! It's so satisfying. Of course her voice would haunt him. She's freaken Stevie Nicks ❤

@Malcolm Driver plus she also wrote Dreams which is the band’s only #1 single and another kiss off to Lindsey.

Yes CRAZY !!!! and Go Your Own Way was his response ....2 of the best songs ever written !!
And don't forget Say Goodbye - I still cry at that one...

Yeah it's sad that real artist barely exist anymore, thank god for Adele
Does anyone else think this is the best Fleetwood performance of all time?
Absolutely 100% yes
Absolutely unbelievable that Stevie was nearly 50 years old during this performance. Looks and sounds like she is still 27. Unreal.
Her hair was absolute perfection!
:D I've just commented the same
I saw her when she was 70, still sounds exactly the same and is absolutely the queen of rock and roll
I was in like 4th grade during this and I remember having a crush on her after watching this with my parents haha

yeah except he is MARRIED!
bigmatt504 I'm not so sure it's live I've played keys for 45 years and if you watch to intro of the piano she goes high but the octave stays low
I feel Lindsey's quiet solo on his guitar was saying "I'm sorry"
That's a nice positive sentiment.
YES TOTALLY!!! Emotional
You can see the emotion in his face right before his solo.
Sorry for what? Why do you think he's at fault?
I agree!
Damn, the way they look at each other, there are no words to describe it.
If I had to try to pick a word to describe it, I guess I'd have to say... Soulmates.
John Collins Yeah soulmates just about covers it.

Love this song . I think the piano is so major . Bless Christine. She was such an important part of the success of this band and I'm sure they all know it. It's just that she wound up sharing the stage with a woman who was probably the most famous female front singer in a generation. I think this iteration of FM; the two couples and Mick was the band at it's best.
Oh, Stevie. Glancing toward Lindsey, repeatedly, searchingly...and then when he deigns so return her eye-lock, the electricity between them is every bit as fierce as ever.
Goddamn. How could you not love Stevie?
Hear this, kids? This is how it's done.
The kids are alright. 😉
It is of my humble opinion that this is the best version of this song out there
My faith in love will not be restored unless Stevie and Lindsey get back together. This is not the sound of two people who ever got over each other.
The Mac at their best: emotional and raw. They had an uncanny ability to reach the deepest levels of the personal feelings we all share. I don't think they set out to do this, it just happened and they set it to record. Lucky for all of us.
This song pulls at the ole heart strings.
jwphx1962 well said
There's a whole lot of history between Stevie and Lindsay. Love, hate, and everything in between.
The extended look that Stevie and Lindsey share with one another breaks my heart for each of them every time.
They were horrible to each other, but that look shows how much they loved each other and still how raw the nerves are between the two.
You cant act that out; that’s real life, which is why it’s so powerful every time I watch this.
If you love someone but it just cant work, you will feel this song with every part of your soul. Goosebumps.
I could watch this day and night. Seriously, doesn't get any better than this! Stevie and Lindsey's love is still such a powerful and unmistakable bond. This video is proof positive of that! Love me some Fleetwood Mac!
Yaay someone else caught it as well :) did not even see your comment when I left one almost like it haha
+Melissa Cottrell I totally agree....
+Weezer Me too! They do cast a spell on me!!
oh, yeah!!!!!!!!!!!
That focused stare between the two of them is what makes this version so perfect.
A Perfect 10...gut wrenching to watch your lover sing this painful song. Christine McVie adds her stellar harmony to the trio.
and I feel like Stevie's saying to Lindsey that this song is about you and that I won't ever let you forget it. Such raw emotion and honesty. The fact that they go through this emotional venting each night n tour is either cathartic or torture...still a phenomenal prerformace.
The way Stevie and Lindsey steal looks at one another is so powerful when they did this song. Anybody that knows the history gets it. This rendition shakes me to the core every time I watch it. Stevie nails it!
Lindsey Buckingham, if he can withstand this and Landslide in one show and not crumble into a blubbering mess, has to be the strongest willed man in the world.
Awesome song! I love this version of Silver Springs. I always end up bawling by the time the song is over. I don't know why. I'm not in a relationship with anyone. Some songs have that affect on me.
She was singing this from her SOUL to his SOUL 💔
The harmony with Nicks, Buckingham and McVie is mesmerizing.
Agree!
They were very focussed on each other. I love to watch these two interact while singing, you can see their intimate connection, and you can see they are communicating with each other through the music. Writing and then singing these songs are definitely healing and therapeutic for Stevie. Lindsey seems supportive even if he did totally crush her heart.
He was the one with the broken heart, she broke up with him
She dumped him. I suppose he really must have pissed her off for her to write that song to him. He was and still is brokenhearted. He is madly in love with Nicks and she is stabbing him straight through his heart with her eyes, voice and emotions on stage. Wow, these two are a force of nature.
Yes Stevie's looks straight into Lindsay's says "You may have broken my spirit...but you did not break ME !!!" POWERFUL
Lindsey and Stevie are our modern-day Romeo and Juliet. Fleetwood Mac casts a spell on all of us. Those five people, at the time they came together, it was for us.
One of their best live performances! Lindsey’s solo is chef’s kiss! Then Stevie staring in his eyes as she sings the song she wrote to him about him! Bravo! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Christine plays piano brilliantly especially in this beautiful song. She has a wonderful touch 💗
I'll never forget being there that night. An innocent high school student who's life would be forever altered by the magical forces of live music....to this day, the best live performance I've ever seen.
This song was performed perfect because you can hear the age, maturity, and sadness in Stevie's voice
I do not have the required circuitry to process the feels this song produces
What a unique , refreshing analysis, response . I actually comprehend your deeper meaning.
Utterly otherworldly is how I describe the effect this particular song has on me. It comes from a place of purity, passion and the power that music has on us. The universal language of love and hearts being their most vulnerable.
Silver Springs gets under my skin, makes itself completely at home and fills in the cracks, just for a few moments anyway 💜💜
I agree. When I watch this I can tell they are both really hurting. Nicks is stabbing him through the heart with this song and he has to stand there and take it. I would not be able to handle that.
the harmony gives me goose-bumps - when Christine, Stevie & Lindz all sing together; brilliant photography too
And the backing vocalists. Everyone forgets about them. Why do you think it sounds so rich.
That passion between Stevie and Lindsey was so strong in this video. She added to the song, and wow.......... Greatest version ever...
The chemistry between Stevie & Lindsey is off the charts here. It's beautiful.
When the others come in on the chorus... whoa.
If you don't think that pain, anger and hurt make for some of the most powerful music...watch the last 90 seconds of this video.
Twenty years after Rumours, the love, hate, tension, and genius of Fleetwood Mac came together for this gem. Now, almost twenty years after The Dance, it is still just as powerful. The interaction between Stevie and Lindsey is just legendary, and if it weren't for that love, hate and tension, Fleetwood Mac would not be the force that it is. Kudos to such a great band!
Praise the cameraman! He got his face, her face, and both their faces at just the perfect time.
Daphne O and they were still giving each other really intense looks
And Christine peaking at em
Like oh shit...
This is awesome
There is no modern Fleetwood Mac without Lindsey-Stevie. Wow!
Living this nightmare since 1993. Been listening to this hauntingly hypnotic, gut wrenching, soul crushing truth for 23 consecutive hours. Best day of my life.
Great live version of this song. Steve's vocal performance is very strong, but for me Fleetwood Mac really soars vocally with the harmony of Stevie, Lindsay & Christine, as during the chorus. Those three voices fit so well ...
The ecstasy on Mick Fleetwoods face tells the story of how amazing this song is. Add to that when Stevie and Lindsay sing to each other at the end. My god, you really have it all in one song.
im obbsessed with this video....glad im not the only one who notices the intensety between them....Avy.x
It does not get better than this masterpiece ~ simply magic!
the perfect comment
Haunting Vocals and the eye contact between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham, given their past romance is very telling of a Love that has probably never gone away completely. Fleetwood Mac at their best here.
Kevin Stailey agreed. this song has deep meaning that none of us will probably ever know. these 2 had a connection between them that was like fire. love love love this song.
My recently deceased wife's favorite song,I can't even listen to it anymore 💔
when I first saw this video concert on VH1 I was mesmerized by the power of this song and the obvious feelings between Lindsay and Stevie, it was all still there, the hurt, the past between them. She is really letting him have it!
the look lyndsay gives stevie at 2.17 . man , that fire still burns,
teej at 2.15 sec. God that look gives me cold chills. best song ever.
2:28 those harmonies send shivers down my spine every single time😍😍😍
Oh, man. At the end with Stevie singing to Lindsey so passionately, I get goose bumps. Just fantastic.
20 years later, I can still FEEL every word, as if I wrote it myself!
Just extraordinarily superb. Hall of fame song.
You just said it perfectly. Lindsey's completely underrated playing, Christine's beautiful piano playing & harmonizing vocals. But to me, it's the way Stevie pours her heart & soul out to Lindsey that makes this my favorite Fleetwood Mac song of them all.
This performance is one of my all time favourite live performances. The chemistry between them is undeniable. The verses at the end are sang from the heart into the other's soul. ♥
Nikki Glaser talked about this today on her podcast. Good reminder to come and take a look at this masterpiece.
Has to be the Vocal Performance of 1997!! To say the tension between Stevie and Lindsey was intense, is an understatement!
20 years on...this performance is more powerful than ever.
This rendition is so much more moving than the album cut. Really hits the feels.
They both loved each other sooo much .
More powerful than a volcano. Makes me cry every time.
How she stares him down when she says “you’ll never get away” as long as your in the band you’ll never get away from the woman that loved you, it’s bone chilling
Seriously, one of the best performances ever. Classic.
RIP Christine McVie. Her piano playing made this song as much as Stevie Nick's singing.
Completely Agree!
How wonderful the Lindsey moved on, got married and now has beautiful children! Well done!
+PoliteTia I know. I find it strange that people think LIndsey is still in love with Stevie. I'm sure he loves his wife. I think what they do on stage is an act, and people think "they're still in love."
+Lisa D. Friendship still has love, just in a different way, just like we love our kids. I'm sure they still love each other but they aren't "in love". It's not always an act when people acknowledge how they feel for each other and there is an obvious affection onstage and I think it's great, and I doubt it's an act. It's called awesome friendship.
TheSeeker1960 I think they love each other too, and I think the affection is real. I do think they are putting on a show when they are singing to each other in a duet with all the love gestures and antics. And then people read into it saying things like, "It's obvious they belong to each other." or "You can see it in their eyes." etc. etc. Stevie once said in an interview, "It's a show when we're on stage."
As I watch this video over and over again, I never take for granted that 1/2 the success of the video is the camera shots and how perfectly timed it was, when at first, he would look at her when she wasnt looking and vice versa. And as the song intensifies, their eyes lock and you can see their entire history together in those few moments.
THE MOST EPICALLY BEAUTIFUL RENDITION OF THIS SONG EVER!!! FLEETWOOD MAC TO THIS DAY WILL REMAIN IN MY HEART
Man, you're almost not even sure what you've seen when this is over. What talent.
So many comment on Stevie and Lindsey and their stirring performances, and well-deserved. But, this is a great example of Mick's virtuoso drumming. Listen carefully. He is one of the all-time best!
Mathew Fullerton yesss loved it!
You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you....
After his guitar solo, you see that fire ignite. It's incredible.
kimiko611 yes God!
The universe hasn't been right since Stevie & Lindsey broke up. Watching them look at each other breaks my heart.
I've only ever been to 1 concert in my life and I'm so happy that it got to be The dance 1997.. Broken back, in a wheel chair and all and still the best night of my life to date. 💗💗
This version gives me chills! Especially when Stevie starts ripping out, "never get away" at the end!
