Fleetwood Mac - Gypsy I Singer Reacts I

[@Gboz90]

Lindsey turned this song into a gem with his production and guitar work at the end

[@totalprocall6894]

Linsey and mick are what MADE fleetwood mac. Linsey with his musicality, and mick with his immediately recognisable drum beats.

[@stevebuckland2053]

The 'room with lace and paper flowers' is the apartment that Stevie and Lindsay lived in when they were young and broke but still carefree...before superstardome changed everything. They were poor, like the Depression poor...then they were millionaires, but no longer free.

[@Agg1E91]

My teenage crush on Stevie Nicks was never as big as it was after I saw this video for the first time. A masterful blend of vocals, instrumentation and visuals.

[@bwhotwing411]

Thank you for reacting to this song. It’s one of my all time favorites. The climax of this song still gives me goosebumps

[@deltabadhand]

I always see this as a song about mourning someone super important to you. "she is dancing away, the memory is all that is left for you" Even the "you see your gypsy" as I interpret it more figuratively, like "you see your loved one in different moments and celebrate them". by the time she gets to the end and "I still see your bright eyes" I'm on the floor bawling.

[@uzi978]

Yep.. I hadn't thought of it that way until someone very close to me passed away. "And her memory is all that's left for you now" always kills me.

[@deltabadhand]

@@uzi978 I still see your bright eyes

[@heathergeary2783]

At least on one occasion Stevie mentioned that her best friend Robin was dying from cancer when she wrote the song.

[@deltabadhand]

@@heathergeary2783 yep. And then she gives other explanations depending on the day of the week. 🤣

[@vicmontana6164]

Stevie Nicks wrote this about her best friend, Robin Anderson, who died of leukemia.

[@MyDayLA711]

It’s 70’s magic. And the video is so complementary. The dancing. The joy. It’s magic.

[@spaulagain]

My favorite song of theirs, it just carries you through some journey in a dream.

[@juanluna6785]

Gypsy and Sara my 2 top favorites songs from Stevie nicks..there's more but these 2 at the top for me

[@justitia257]

Great Fleetwood Mac..I love the song "Don't Stop"

[@FrankUli]

I've always loved Stevie Nick's voice she was a great singer to say the least, thank you for sharing this with all of us.

[@MyDayLA711]

Yes, the last guitar lick is fire. He’s “talking/singing.” It’s so good. Love watching you totally enjoy and get lost in it. I’m a dude and I do the same thing (in secret!) 😂

[@DamnedEyez]

You touched on a comparison (Stevie/Carrie) that's been going on for decades. I think even Carrie Fisher commented on it at some point. ...I also haven't seen this video for a couple decades, so it was a fun bit of nostalgia.

[@davidmatheny1993]

Lindsey Buckingham is known for mostly playing his guitar with a more banjo picking style, playing arpeggiated chords often. Another guitarist that plays in that style heavily is Peter Buck from R.E.M.

[@fredtedstedman]

one of my favourite Lindsey guitar solos .Travis style !

[@bradmoyer9737]

Thank you for reacting to the classics of my youth, great music and so many good memories! 🙏🏻

[@EvilHandyman]

spot on with the lyrics, love. she was trying to taunt the guitar player cause they had broken up. show him what he lost. my goodness, did she ever.

[@darinkaintz386]

"Gold Dust Woman"

[@dudermcdudeface3674]

Stevie Nicks' voice is proof that music is real magic.

[@patricksutton3992]

Stevie nicks voice we used call her voice the goat.she sounds like a goat.

[@c.s.m.k5737]

One of my all time favourite songs. Pristine, musically perfect

[@randallshaw9609]

You and I have the same interpretation of this song. I associate 'Gypsy' with a particular woman from my youth (62 yrs old now) and always will even tho 'a memory is all that's left for [me] now'. Never fails to move me when I hear it.

[@pegajense]

My favorite female singer/songwriter of all time this is also my favorite song of her's thank you ❤❤❤❤

[@reneedumont2474]

Beautiful song. And yes I always saw the resemblance of her and Carry Fischer. It's the eyes

[@RockyRajkumar-yg1ee]

Love you ❤ Stevie Nicks. God bless you 🙏❤

[@robertevans2450]

Stevie was almost 10 when Carrie was born...just saying. Good track, good reaction. I always found it telling the story of the band. How each found Stevie as a form of Gypsy. Lindsay when Stevie was just out of High School, Mick when Stevie and Lindsay had split, and Christine when Stevie and Mick were getting 'close'. What isn't in this is what John thought.

[@cluster_f1575]

Another great one to check out from Fleetwood Mac is Silver Springs (official live video)

[@JP47471]

Stevie is a great songwriter

[@rbl4641]

It's an extraordinary song...just so good

[@Retroearthling]

"this is FleetwoodS mac" LMFAO

[@samuellord8576]

Rachael, as you listened your eyes and shoulders moved as if you were dancing with her. Quite a beautiful image!

[@peterwalsh2470]

if you want the ultimate dreamy Fleetwood Mac song, you should check out "Sara".

[@pjscafe]

Wow, i never connected Stevie to Carrie Fisher. Now i can see why, especially their beautiful brown eyes. ❤️❤️

[@dillonsronce2583]

I can't wait to go and see stevie nicks live in March

[@mariaaguilera3364]

I love Stevie nick’s so much ❤❤❤

[@patricksutton3992]

She wrote this song about lindsey and her in their little apartment and her friend robin who at the time was pregnant with boy but she didn't take any medication she wanted him suv.she passed away later then the song came out Iam surprise it did not become number 1.

[@patricksutton3992]

It came out 1982 mirage album.

[@michaelbradley6488]

That guitar sound is all Lindsey Buckingham, one of the greatest guitarists ever, one of the greatest bands ever.

[@AhronLong]

Lindsay Buckingham is an extremely underrated guitarist.

[@scottrackley4457]

She's a contralto with extremely good control if her little vibrato.

[@thomasreid4063]

See your gypsy or in my case a cajun Stevie, who danced like a breeze in her beret around our flat...and when her lil Stevie`s came of age to enjoy it ,they would skip off to school like a couple of gypsys...Now they have their own lil Stevie`s..."tell me lil lies" is even better do try & give it a listen

[@70centurian]

Perfection...........

[@rickypilcher3618]

At the time, Gypsy was the most expensive video ever made.

[@willfromyadkinville]

my MTV childhood! thank you! and yes i think you are very pretty!

[@Uatu-the-Watcher]

Nice pick up on the banjo comment. Guitarists Lindsey Buckingham plays guitar primarily through Travis picking, and finger picking style most commonly applied to banjo playing. :-)

[@damianolsen6763]

A song that would be nice would be falling away from me

[@vilijusvasiliauskas454]

Bad Omens - Artificial Suicide live Concrete Forever Las Vegas

[@ChadAdkins-hx5zz]

Awesome reaction.....you need to react to DISTURBED and ANN WILSON OF HEART Don't Tell Me....what an awesome song by 2 awesome vocalist!!! You need to check this one out!!!

[@bwhotwing411]

Very intuitive of you to mention the banjo style playing because the guitar players style is finger plucking the strings on the electric guitar like a banjo. Lyndsey Buckingham is one of the greatest guitar players ever

[@nononobutyeah]

Fleetwood is singular.

[@kennethmitchell298]

I, too, see princess Leia when I see Stevie.

[@Vanedis]

I think you're thinking of Carrie Fisher, I see it too now

[@jp1170]

Lindsay Buckingham at his finest

[@omen7427]

I'm here after watching your vermillion reaction... it went by fast because it's really cut down for the video. The full song flows much better and has some really powerful parts that are missing in the one you saw

[@mikedineen7857]

I love Stevie’s wonderful vocals. But Linda is the queen.

[@RacerKenny]

Check out A7X the stage or Volbeat - Die to Live or Forever Evigt

[@Allen-zj3mp]

ADD Fleetwood Mac - Dreams

[@uzi978]

It was the 80s... the videos were new, experimental, and didn't really make much sense. Stevie is the GOAT though.. that voice... that twirl... unf.

[@donstand2195]

Lindsey finger picking is amazing

[@ragde2163]

❤❤❤

[@DavidDuque-fp6vu]

More reactions to ice nine kills please 🥺

[@erinraecowin]

This is way outside your wheelhouse, but I'd love you to check out IU's new MV "Love Wins All". Her voice is breathtaking.

[@josephdenney6701]

Lindsey pick the guitar like a banjo

[@dab_family9405]

Do you realize how often you talk about Labyrinth? :)

[@anatolek9322]

Rachael please react to Deftones - Change (In The House Of Flies) [Official Music Video] his voice is so unique.

[@timetosleep-ns6rh]

please react to song Iris - Goo Goo Dolls (Orchestra Cover Version) from Cakra khan

[@parinthianquattropani9071]

Crystal, not glass...

[@TheLifesentence2278]

a good song for female reactors.

[@Bartcmh]

My theory. The women in the video aren’t actual women. They’re spirts. Gypsy spirts. They could have been any woman in any of those times. Just a theory.

[@marlew6629]

it's called vibrato

[@badrusalim5632]

Next reaction please "Catalyst" by Weird Genius ft Pepita

[@patricksutton3992]

Lindsey buckingham like all her songs was produce and arrange by lindsey most all her songs by her ex boyfriend lindsey buckingham he did not use a pick on his guitars that's it sounds like a banjo.

[@Mr.Sidenote]

The video really has nothing to do with the song. There are different types of videos. You already know what lyric videos are and animation is self-explanatory. You have the performance video, which utilizes live footage of the band playing and it's synched to the studio recording, or usually just miming along to the song on a soundstage or some other setting. You have the narrative video, where the action on screen more or less follows the lyrics of the song in a more literal manner. And then there is the concept video, such as this one, where the director will come in with an idea and a big budget from the record label. It doesn't need to be linked to the song at all, although in this case, the director seemed to have taken inspiration from Stevie's lyrical theme of reminiscing and dancing. She's singing about her gypsy days as a hippie in the late 60's/ early 70's, but in the video itself, she's playing the role of a flapper in the 1920's during the black and white scenes. In the colorized, modern scenes, she's ballet dancing in front of a mirror and frolicking with woodland fairies.

[@James_Loveless]

Nice thought But this is the Official Video for Gypsy by and from Fleetwood Mac

[@Tijuanabill]

Beauty is a word missing from modern music. Somewhere along the way, creating beautiful music became uncool, and everything had to orbit around negative emotions instead. I prefer the full spectrum of emotions be used to communicate music to others. Otherwise, it's all just whiny and boring.

[@Retroearthling]

your commentary is dead on. linsdsey is an amazing travis picker. Which is country music.

[@renedavids6154]

Not my most favorite song of her but still okay.
