Confusing, ain't it?

As is typical of any aspect of their lives, reports from the five of them over the past 30 years or so are conflicting. In a radio interview in 1980, Stevie said that she & Lindsey were breaking up when they joined Fleetwood Mac, but the newfound success with the group later that year sort of sidetracked their impending split. You could argue, I suppose, that GYOW isn't strictly speaking a breakup song, or at least not a "we already broke up" song.
