This was another track from the tribute album Legacy in 1998, recorded by American rock band Goo Goo Dolls. It also reached the top spot in countries around the world and won a Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1978. Top 10 singles and remained at number one on the American albums chart for 31 weeks. She must have heard this a lot, as she recorded her own version of 'Go Your Own Way', and it's brilliant. Rumours (1977), Fleetwood Macs second album after the arrival of Buckingham and Nicks, produced four U.S. Many people have noticed the similarities between American singer Lissie's voice with Stevie Nicks, and some of her own songs have a certain Fleetwood Mac quality about them. Her version can also be heard in Love Actually. Despite being released two years after her death, the album went on to reach number 1 in the UK in 2001. Eva Cassidy - 'Songbird'Īrguably the most famous Fleetwood Mac cover version of all time, this is a truly beautiful song that might even have bettered the original!Įva's version was released in 1998 on her posthumous album of the same name.

Dixie Chicks - 'Landslide'Īnother heartbreaking ballad by Stevie Nicks, country trio Dixie Chicks scored a huge hit with their cover in 2002. The feel good track suits the Hayley Williams-fronted band's sound perfectly. Pop punk band Paramore started playing this 1980s pop classic during their live sets in 2017, and who can blame them?

Some think the cover shot attempts to conjure up the album's title, much like the old-school optical-illusion drawing of a young woman/old hag.
