Sometimes an album is so big even their B-Sides are hits.
This was the B-Side for "Go Your own Way"

Very powerful voice in this early version, closer to the time when she wrote it and it had more feeling. The live version on The Dance is nice, but much more mellow and more like a memory ("a great old song"), many years later, than the feeling in the earlier, more present version.

This is the first time I've heard this version, and initially upon hearing it didn't really like it in comparison. But now I see, or hear rather, your point, and I may even agree with you. Towards the end of the song, she sounds raw. Like the pain is fresh. Powerful stuff.

You could go on, but don't- Glee is so much fun, so entertaining, good television (compare it to David Caruso & CSI in Miami in green , orange, and pink , ugggg). Why would a fine show need to live up to your picky, nitpicking standards. (what standards? Glee has won Emmys. I hope it goes on, with guest stars like Stevie & Mary J Blige, for a long time.

Maybe but it's still not music, it's TV and it all happens in the post production and has nothing to do with musicianship. Heck, can you even be sure it's those kids singing? It's milli vanTelly. Entertaining? Well for you I guess so, but it ain't real music. I'd rather watch "Later with Jools Holland", thanks, anyway.

I have a hard time thinking that anything done on Glee has anything to do with real music.

My wife is always getting people saying things like "With as much as you love music, I'm surprised you don't watch Glee!" She nearly goes nuts each time, which makes me laugh a little when she's not looking. Basically, her answer (and mine were anyone to say anything like that to me) is that she hates Glee because of how much she loves music. Music is about the instruments, the musicians, and the music, not about a bunch of kids singing to an over-produced, sterilized, and soulless version of great songs of the past. There's no real musicianship going on with that show. If all it took to be great was a pleasant singing voice, I could list a hundred hugely influential musicians that would never have made it. Pearl Jam, Porcupine Tree, Dylan, Neil Young, Blind Melon, Smashing Pumpkins... Need I go on?

Not the strongest song on the album, but a poignant heartbreaker...

Time cast a spell on you...but you won't forget me...
I know I could've loved you, but you would not let me..
I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you..
You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you..


Someone else the word "vindictive"...Nicks gets angrier and angrier as she sings. It feels like she's invoking a curse on someone. Love turning to hatred...chilling.

i like live re-release they did in the late 90s better....unusual, as i usually stick to the originals, but i just dig this song live.

Great tune, but I think the live version is better.

Really respect the lineage of this band.....This is a terrific song from that era of Fleetwood Mac

This song gets a solid ten as long as I only hear it once a decade. That was my listen for 2010-2020.

Every time I hear it again before 2020, I'm coming back to RP to deduct a point.

Originals and Classics... They hold up after all these years... Nice blend this Morning... Thanks... Lots of miles and white dots went by as this played out of the cheap speakers...

Don't love Fleetwood Mac, but they do have a nostalgic appeal to me. I might add that when Christie McVie sings...it's more palatable to me.
