OVER AND OVER ( FLEETWOOD MAC CHRISTINE MCVIE COVER ) 11.09.09 video

I apologize for my "Tusk-In-The-Studio" impression Ms. Nicks and Mr. Buckingham. It's none of my business, and I only have the 2004 Destiny Rules documentary as reference. When will Warners re-release the 1979 making-of Tusk documentary? I've never seen it. With extra bonus footage of course. ;-P I've played Over And Over over and over and over. For around three decades. It's got one of the best Fleetwood Mac live-off-the-floor grooves they ever committed to tape. I have no idea how many overdubs are on the beds of that song. I just know it cooks. One should be so lucky to have a drummer like Mick Fleetwood. He's a clock. I just learned this song recently. There's no way I could pay tribute to Stevie Nicks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3f2BsCOvc58 and not pay tribute to Auntie Chris. You Make Loving Fun. Say You Love Me. Oh Daddy. Hold Me. DON'T STOP. Wish You Were Here. Everywhere. A balladeer of balladeers, and a pop songwriter of poise and soul. I don't care how sychophantic I sound. Friends and family will agree I've been talking about Fleetwood Mac since the mid-70s. When I was 11! I'm entitled as a devoted fan. In March 1984, my cousin Paul and I survived the rolling of a dark blue van filled with eight boys on their way back from March Break in Florida. We hit black ice at the Kentucky / Ohio border, about a dozen miles from Cincinnati, and in mid-tempo skidded off the road listening to Christine McVie's Love Will Show Us How at 5am in the morning. When the unheated, freezing van driven by children coming home from Daytona landed upside-down with the lights still on and the van still running, some dork (three guesses, and the first two don't count) screamed "It's gonna blow!", having watched too many Hollywood movies on the beta vcr. Happily it didn't blow, but we all had colds for days afterwards, because we were all too afraid to go back into an upside-down running van to get our boots. Silly me. Watching a ballet of cars slide off the road that night is not an image I want to ever see again in real life, let me tell you. It's vivid in my mind just as I recreate the image here in words. It's surprising no one within our eyesight was hurt. There were lots of cars that slid off the road that night, some perilously close to us. I remember the night was strangely calm though, as snow fell on all our vehicles as we waited for the police and tow trucks to arrive. Is Over And Over about Dennis Wilson? Fleetwood Mac's harmonies were my musical education. Long may they make music. All of them. For more of my ramblings, follow me on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/michaelthorner
