In 68, on the Blue Horizon label

with ‘Albatross’ were Fleetwood Mac at No.1.

And in 69, their next single – ‘Man Of The World’,

at No.2, on the Immediate label, had our hearts won.

 

Later in 69, making it to No.2 was ‘Oh Well’,

and in 70, ‘The Green Manalishi (with the Two-Pronged Crown)’ 

made No.10 – ( both these singles coming on Reprise) –

this group, guaranteed not to let fans down.

 

In 73, ‘Albatross’ made a re-appearance,

this time on CBS reaching No.2.

And in 79, ‘Tusk’ on the Warner Brothers label,

at No.6,  from their album – loved true.

 

In 82, and still on Warner Brothers,

‘Oh Diane’ made it to No.9.

And also reaching No.9 in 87 –

‘Big Love’ another single, just divine.

 

Also in 87, reaching No.5 –

along came ‘Little Lies’.

And in 88, making No.4,

was ‘Everywhere’, – again no surprise.

 

In 77, came the album ‘Rumours’,

spending more weeks in our charts, than any other LP.

Fleetwood Mac’s music,  meaning so much, to so many,

lifting spirits as hearts run free.
