Let's not go there (again)

It was a simple joke line that was not meant to start this debate again

I'm laughing as I type! :wavey:

You’re the one who went there in the first place.

Oh, ok. I have been here for years and years but remarkably clueless about a lot of those things.

First single off the album was the first Fleetwood Mac song released in five years. It went to #5. The next song, sung by the big star in the band, released before the drama, barely cracked the Top 20. The song in question was released after the big drama and its video was edited in a way that played up that drama. The song reached #4 and topped the MTV video charts while the new lineup was on tour. The final single reached #14 and had a rarely (if ever) played video.

However, some don’t want to believe the novelty, drama, and cool videos had anything to do with the success of the respective songs.

It's weird that Everywhere didn't crack the top 10. It was truly Everywhere on the radio. Had they done a video, it may have been a top 5 hit.

To this day, it's downloaded in the millions.

They should have released the version on the TITN concert video.

Oh yea! Because the buzz around that "Shakin the Cage Tour" was hot. They kept announcing LB left and it would have been a way to promote the new band and single.

Yes, it peaked at #9 on the UK charts and dragged Mirage into the Top 10 there.

Scratch my back with a hacksaw. Hold Me flopped there yet Oh Diane became a big hit.
