What an angelic voice and great songwriter.

What an angelic voice and great songwriter.

For sure. I want to listen to The Songbird now.

I'm super bummed. If I don't watch out, I'm going to cry, and I can't because I'm at work.

Sis not realize she was that old; and of course there is the mileage as well

RIP one of the truly greats who never got the credit she really deserved

 

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

Oh man, that's a punch to the gut. I had no idea she was ailing. Horrible news and she'll be greatly missed.

 

[Praxit]

...my only regret, was never seeing them live. Now she's gone. So sad.

 

[Runwildboys]

Wow, that's a name I wouldn't have expected to hear. I had no idea she was that old. I definitely prefer her vocals over Nicks's. RIP

 

[John813]

Damn. Huge bummer there. Rip

 

[jnday]

A very talented lady that never got the credit she deserved. RIP

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Like others have posted, wow. Had no clue she was that old, figured her to be about 10 years younger. RIP and prayers.

RIP Christine. Prayers and condolences to her family and beloved ones.

I too had no idea that she was near 80 yrs of age..
I really liked several of the Fleetwood Mac's songs.

So many good songs of hers told the tale of that band's (and the country in general, at times) ups and downs.
"Don't Stop" tried to get us looking forward
"Over My Head" was light and breezy
"Songbird" was a pretty ballad....

Hold Me is one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs it was one Christine McVie's finest.

 

[CouchCoach]

Isn't it ironic that her "Everywhere" is all over the place with Chevrolet in some great commercials showing people having fun and singing along. That is one of the "Hook Queen's" more infectious songs and I defy anyone to be sad when listening to that song.

I usually don't like songs used commercially but the first time I saw that ad, I was OK this time. Really a feel good.

Had no idea she was 79. RIP.

May she RIP. As she was so underrated. Always in the shadow of Stevie Nicks but really a huge star. God bless her loved ones.

I really liked Stevie Nicks; but as happens all too often the Flash gets a lot more ink then substance does

 

[NorthoftheRedRiver]

Her maiden name was Christine Perfect. I imagine that the "miss perfect" jokes got pretty old after a while. She'll be missed.

Truly , RIP.

As others have said, I didn't realize she was that old, but it makes sense as I remember Fleetwood Mac was big in 70's when I was in High School.

I loved her voice and nearly all my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs were sung by her.

I looked up Grace Slick and she is in her 80's.
