Can you imagine Stevie, Chris, Lindsey, and Fleetwood Mac all having a Top 40 hit at the same time?
It almost happened. Lindsey's Go Insane entered the to 40 in early summer 1984. Chris's Love will show us how just fell off the charts.

The thing I don't like about Nightbird is the drum machine. It cheapens the sound and mood of the song. That is what makes the SNL version so good. Real drums and a piano. The album version sounds like a cheap casio keyboard from the 80's LOL
