‘Daisy Jones And The Six’ Fans Can’t Stop Watching This Stevie Nicks Performance On TikTok
If you’ve been lurking around the dark corners of TikTok lately, you may have noticed a video pop up of Fleetwood Mac performing their song ‘Silver Springs’ and it’s got music fans in a chokehold.
The song is experiencing a resurgence after the series Daisy Jones & The Six was released, a story that’s loosely inspired by Fleetwood Mac. The book by Taylor Jenkins Reid was turned into an eight-part Amazon miniseries starring Sam Clafin, Riley Keough, and Suki Waterhouse.
The series tells the story of the rise of fictional ’70s band The Six, who were joined by Daisy Jones, and the fractured intense relationship between the two main singers Daisy and Billy Dunne.
Author Taylor Jenkins Reid has previously said the book was inspired by her experience growing up and watching Fleetwood Mac performances on TV. In case you’ve been left in the dark, Fleetwood Mac are not only famous for bangers such as ‘Go Your Own Way’ and ‘Dreams’ but also for their in-band romances and constant drama with line-up changes, falling outs, reunions, and more.
The band’s drama could be a whole post of its own, but you can read a breakdown on Wikipedia here.
One of the worst relationship disintegrations was between lead vocalists Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. The pair had a tumultuous love affair throughout the 1970s before splitting in 1976. And now fans have stumbled across an iconic 1997 performance of Fleetwood Mac singing ‘Silver Springs’, a song penned by Nicks about the breakup — and it’ll give you GOOSEBUMPS.
