I-95 Drive Home Mystery Artist [VIDEO]

Tonight’s mystery artists have a hit that was written while on vacation in a haunted house.  Can you guess the band or the song??

So here we go.  The song is ‘Go Your Own Way’. Nothing too spooky about that, in fact I get the feeling from their accounts that if there were evil spirits in the house the band members may have drawn them there. Wikipedia tells how the band had rented a house in Florida for a little R and R which in their case was Rage and Resentment. You see, by this point, the members of Fleetwood Mac were not getting along very well. Mick Fleetwood, the band's drummer, remembers the tense atmosphere during this time:

It was hardly a vacation. Aside from the obvious unstated tension, I remember the house having a distinctly bad vibe to it, as if it were haunted, which did nothing to help matters…and that's where Lindsey played some of his stuff for the album. It was rough but it was great, though the setting didn't do it justice..."

The description goes on to say how Lindsey used that particular song to torment Stevie. ‘Go Your Own Way’ is just one of the songs written about the complicated and terminal relationship that Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. At the time the song was written, none of the members knew that they were writing songs about each other.

The story Stevie told Rolling Stone Magazine was that she had asked Buckingham to remove the lyrics "Packing up, shacking up is all you wanna do", but Buckingham refused. She went on to say,  "I very much resented him telling the world that 'packing up, shacking up' with different men was all I wanted to do. He knew it wasn't true. It was just an angry thing that he said. Every time those words would come onstage, I wanted to go over and kill him. He knew it, so he really pushed my buttons through that. It was like, 'I'll make you suffer for leaving me.' And I did.

Here is the little ditty as our featured song: It's many year later and they seem over it...let's hope so.
