“Everywhere” is a single released by the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac from their album Tango in the Night, written and with lead vocals by Christine McVie. It was released in the United Kingdom on February 24, 1988, and reached #4 there. In the United States, it was released earlier on November 28, 1987, and reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and went to #1 on the U.S. adult contemporary chart, remaining there for three weeks. The song also reached the Top 50 in Australia at number forty-five.

SPECIAL NOTE:
Originally this 12″ included the album track “When I See You Again” as the b-side unfortunately that track had very bad groove distortion so I decided to omit it and replace it with the rare “You And I (Par 1)” taken from the b-side of the UK “Big Love” 7″.

Christine McVie 1943-2022

Christine McVie, a singer, songwriter and keyboardist who became the biggest hitmaker for Fleetwood Mac, one of music’s most popular bands, died on Wednesday. She was 79.

Ms. McVie’s commercial potency, which hit a high point in the 1970s and ’80s, was on full display on Fleetwood Mac’s “Greatest Hits” anthology, released in 1988, which sold eight million copies: She either wrote or co-wrote half of its 16 tracks. Her tally doubled that of the next most prolific member of the band’s trio of singer-songwriters, Stevie Nicks. (The third, Lindsay Buckingham, scored three major Billboard chart-makers on that collection.)

The most popular songs Ms. McVie crafted favored bouncing beats and lively melodies, including “Say You Love Me” (which grazed Billboard’s Top 10), “You Make Lovin’ Fun” (which just broke it), “Hold Me” (No. 4) and “Don’t Stop” (her top smash, which crested at No. 3). But she could also connect with elegant ballads, like “Over My Head” (No. 20) and “Little Lies” (which cracked the publication’s Top Five in 1987).

Lindsey Buckingham – Go Insane (Extended Remix) (Germany 12″)

“Go Insane” is the title track of Lindsey Buckingham’s second solo album. Released as a single, 3 July 1984, it became Buckingham’s second solo hit (after “Trouble”, three years earlier). “Go Insane” is Buckingham’s most recent US solo hit (peaking at #23 in the Billboard Hot 100 chart); on the other hand, it did not chart in the United Kingdom.

Lindsey Buckingham has said, when asked about the meaning of the song, insanity can said to be very relative to the context you find yourself in. An example might be a very acceptable and typical behavior for a group of people in a little rock and roll microcosm, might be grounds for someone being committed if they worked in a bank.

“Looking at it that way we all tend to go insane a little bit, I think that’s ok. I think that’s one of the things the album is saying – it is ok to go insane, it can be quite cathartic actually, to watch yourself go out to the edge and sort of reel yourself back in – now hopefully you do reel yourself back in.

“Another point the song makes is if you happen to be with someone else who takes that sort of behavior too far, and you’re not willing to give up whatever that relationship might be – then you will tend to go a little bit insane with them.

“And if they are doing that you will experience a lot of the things they are simply by virtue of being a part of that. The important thing is not to take it too far, I guess.”

At the time, he had a relationship that was close to ending (or maybe had just ended) with Carol Ann Harris. According to Buckingham, she was using drugs and Buckingham tried to stop her, but with no results. Two of his lines, “I lost my power in this world / Cause I did not use it”, could be interpreted to be about how he had waited too long to try to stop her. Harris, however, in her book “Storms,” claims that she only used the drug with the band and her friends and Buckingham used it in equal abundance.

In pop culture the song was featured in the Miami Vice first season episode “The Great McCarthy.”
