The quotes on here may sound funny because some of them are different lines from the same song (i.e. "Gypsy"). They are marked with a *. Don't freak, I know my lyrics!!!
1/5/98-The
album of the day is........Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
. This album is awesome.
Recorded in the mists of relationships breaking
up, this album is full of emotion and drive.
"I'll follow you
down 'till the sound of my voice will haunt you..."-Original
Silver Springs that was cut from the album Rumours.
"niener
niener"
1/18/98-The song of the day is "I Can't Wait" by Stevie Nicks. When I first got the album Timespace, this was the song I hated. Now I love it and I can't figure out why. It's a real "80's" song and it has a lot of stupid synthesizers, but it grows on you. "well she dances around in a circle...she's got that feeling now...."
1/19/98-The song of the
day is "Go Insane" by Lindsey Buckingham. This song was originally found on
Mr. Buckingham's solo album Go Insane, but the version I'm
talking about is the "Go Insane" on The Dance.
This one is acoustic and is very powerful. It really
shows his talent as a guitar player. "So I go insane, like I
always do..."
2/15/98-The song of the day
is "Juliet".
It's off of Stevie's solo album "The Other Side of the
Mirror". I didn't like the album at all when I first
got it. I thought it was over-produced (I still do) and
some of the concepts don't fit her music at all. Bad Rupert
Hine!!! But the music can't help but grow on you.
It's Stevie...it just does. You can say you don't like it
all you want, but then you start humming the tune and you are a
goner. Anyway, this is a very neat song if you ever get to
hear it. Makes you smile even if you don't want to. "....she said, 'the sky
is crying', he says, 'no, the sky is blue'..."
The week of: 2/15/98-The
Album of the Week really isn't an album--it's "The
Dance" on video (FM's reunion concert). Everytime...."Silver
Springs".....*sniffle*.....heart
wrenching....*sniffle**sniffle*. And it makes me mad that
"Gold Dust Woman" isn't on The Dance CD.
"The Chain" is intense and Lindsey doesn't slip up this
time and say "fuck" like he did on Rumours. I
want to do "Tusk" in marching band next year, but Mr.
Bobo will never listen to me. I recommend The Dance cd to
anyone new to FM or to anyone wanting to be new to FM. "...well did she make
you cry, make you break down, shatter your illusions of
love? And is over now, do you know how to pick up the
pieces and go home?"-Gold Dust
Woman
"Landslide"
2/16/98-The Song of the
Day is "Gypsy". It is found on Mirage by
Fleetwood Mac.
"...i'm back to
the gypsy that I was....lightning strikes-- maybe once, maybe
twice... and if I was a child, and the child was enough; enough
for me to love, enough to love...." * 'nuff said.
3/15/98-The Song of the
Day is "No Spoken Word", on Rock A Little, a
Stevie solo album. This song is pure rock, in
your face. The lyrics are strong and the singing will knock
you down.
"She said 'Look out...I don't know how to learn from the pages of a
book".
Well, either I
say too much, or I...I don't say enough. Well, I play too
hard, still I'm not tough enough..." click here for entire lyrics.
3/16/98-The Song of the Day
is "Imperial Hotel", from Rock A Little. This is such a cool song. It is
really catchy and I think this a song anyone can like.
"He says to
her...'why do you do it?' She says to him...'why do you
stay?' Then they say unspoken words to explain it. He
says, 'baby, I hate to see you this way. I hate to see
you... I hate to see you cry...'
Well, you can get
her... but you can't keep her. And you can't catch her
fall. She will call you when she needs you, you know where
she lives... The Imperial..." click here for entire lyrics.
3/15/98/-3/21/98-The
Song of the Week is "Fireflies" (this one is for you,
George!!) from the 1980 album Fleetwood Mac Live. This is a great song! I really
don't know how to describe it...it has a lot of chromatics,
though!!!
"To be the last
to leave, the last to be gone, stolen from the ones who hung on
to it.
To be the last in
line, the ones that live on, silhouette of a dream, treasured by
the ones... who hung on to it. I would love to believe .. I believe what
you say. In the drama of the moment, oh, there's no easy
way. No one ever leaves. Every one stays .. close till the
fire .. fades."* click

5/22/98-The Song of the
Day is "Violet and Blue" by Stevie Nicks. This
song appears on her 3-cd box set "Enchanted".
"So where have you gone...have you gone so far from the eyes that
speak trouble? And even when the warning is...overwhelming..."-click
here for entire lyrics.
5/23/98-The Song of the Day
is "Gold and Braid" by Stevie Nicks. This also
appears on "Enchanted". This song quickly became one of my favorite
songs. It is preformed live and has a kickin' piano solo in
the middle.
"Don't hide
behind your hair...it's a bit of
gold and braid. Easy come the tears, you see a pathway
ending with a doorway....you slip toward the doorway. Been
waiting there all day...all these years."-click here for entire lyrics.
5/24/98-The
Song of the Day is "Greta", by (who else) Stevie
Nicks. This song is on her solo album "Street
Angel".
"Alone in her
chambers...she dreams of her home. Outside...she's got a
movie star view. Outcries...well where will the kings go...where
will the kings go now? She's got her eyes wide open...and
she's ready to stare you down."-click here for entire lyrics.
5/25/98-The
Song of the Day is "Freedom" by Fleetwood Mac.
This song is on the 1990 album "Behind the Mask".

daggers, it won't do you any good. All the looks that
you've used on me don't work now that you've fallen, fallen,
fallen...."-click here for entire lyrics.
6/1/98-The Song of the Day
is "Sisters of the Moon", by Fleetwood Mac. This
is from the album "Tusk". (these lyrics from the Mirage
Video)
"So we
make our choices, when there is no choice. And we listen to their
voices, we ignore our own voice. And when the people who
gather around you, do you remember that the were the most
cruel?"
6/2/98-The Song of the Day is
"Paper Doll" by Fleetwood Mac. It is on "25
Years....The Chain" box set.
"Come on
now, let sad winds blow down. As the rain came...she
refused to wear her coat. But deep in her heart she
knew....that the song must go on. He says, 'well I have
forgotten you and your beautiful eyes...we were off the
wall. We were mirrors of our former selves, well...."-Click here for entire lyrics.
1/18/99-The Song of the Day is "Magnet and Steel" by Walter Egan, which is found on his album Not Shy. Ok, ok, this isn't a FM/Stevie song, but Stevie and Lindsey sing back up on most of the album. Walter's voice isn't exactly music to my ears, but I LOVE this song anyway...
"Ooh ooh ah....Now I told you so you ought to know .....Ooh it takes some time for a feelin' to grow....Ooh you're so close now I can't let you go.....Ooh and I can't let go...For you are a magnet and I am steel ."
1/19/99-The Song of the Day is "If You Ever Did Believe" by Stevie Nicks, appearing on the Practical Magic Soundtrack.
"My mind won't rest and I don't sleep...not even in my dreams...If you ever did believe, for my sake...if you ever did believe....
1/20/99-The Song of the Day is "Rooms on Fire" by Stevie Nicks, on the album The Other Side of the Mirror.
"Well maybe I'm just thinking that the
rooms are all on fire
Everytime that you walk in the room
Well there is magic all around you, if I do say so myself...
I have known this much longer than I've known you
She had trusted many...
And then there would be someone who would enter into her presence
That she could sense for miles..."
1/21/99-The Song of the Day is "Only Lonely" by Hootie and the Blowfish.
Ok, I know I said I didn't like this album. But I heard this song on the radio this weekend and it literally made me burst into tears (which only a few songs can do). Click here.
