Oh My God! I Totally Love This Song!


GO YOUR OWN WAY BY FLEETWOOD MAC

This is what Summer sounded like when I was a little kid. When we hopped into my Mom’s orange Honda station wagon with the cassette player and drove up to Penticton I remember this playing as we flew down the highway. That golden-hued 70’s thing that people my age remember has this as a soundtrack.

As I became older, I gave Rumors a re-listen and alongside the nostalgia I realized what a great album it is. From beginning to end this is the best break-up song cycle ever. The behind-the-scenes stories about its recording and touring are amazing and could have only happened when they did.

I may even make it the soundtrack to this Summer. 

If I could, baby I’d give you my world. How can I when you won’t take it from me?

   

 Open up, everything’s waiting for you:
