Dreams -- Fleetwood Mac

英籍乐队Fleetwood Mac在1967年成立之初是一个以吉他手Peter Green为主导的蓝调摇滚团体。经过多次的换将与音乐风格的尝试，团中鼓手Mick Fleetwood、贝斯手John McVie、键盘手兼主唱Christine McVie渐成重心。1974年美国籍主唱Bob Welch离团后，原活跃于加州的男女二重唱Lindsey Buckingham和Stevie Nicks加入，于是开创了Fleetwood Mac最璀璨辉煌的年代。凭藉Lindsey、Stevie、Christine铁三角的作曲主力与三位轮流担任主唱的特色加上明亮、轻快的摇滚风使该团不仅在1975-87年间发表的五张录音室专辑和一张现场演唱实况专辑张张精彩、销售奇佳，他们与老鹰合唱团同为加州摇滚最具代表性的乐团。可惜的是Lindsey Buckingham和Stevie Nicks相继在1987、1993年宣布离团发展个人演唱事业。

　　乐队于1993年入主摇滚名人堂，成为名垂乐史的摇滚乐队，Fleetwood　Mac对80年代之后的流行乐坛具有十分广泛的影响。他们的经典歌曲被无数大牌艺人无数次的翻唱。很多国际当红歌手成名后，都在不同的场合承认Fleetwood　Mac的音乐对他们的影响是具有启迪性和意义深远。如Eve Cassidy翻唱过“Song bird”，The Cranberries翻唱过“Go Your Own Way”、“Dreams”，The Corrs亦曾翻唱过“Dreams”......

Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
Its only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat.. drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost...
And what you had...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when its raining
Players only love you when theyre playing
Say... women... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean... youll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
Its only me
Who wants to wrap around your dreams and...
Have you any dreams youd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness...
Like a heartbeat... drives you mad...
In the stillness of remembering what you had...
And what you lost...
And what you had...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when its raining
Players only love you when theyre playing
Say... women... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean... youll know
