From the Rosebud doc.
Some Happy Southern Californian rock&roll!
You Make Loving Fun, the fourth single from Rumours, is definitely one of the songs that made Fleetwood Mac who they are today. When performed live, You Make Loving Fun always gets the crowd going and usually gets a "Christine McVie" shout from Lindsey Buckingham for the recognition she deserves. Its funky keyboards and outstanding harmonies make the song unique and a favorite of many Fleetwood mac fans. In one of the few optimistic songs on Rumours, Christine tells us of her love affair of Fleetwood Mac's then lighting director, Curry Grant. While going through a rough break-up at the time with John McVie, Curry gave her something special; he made her feel valued and, of course, loved. Curry seemed to have been just what Christine needed at the time, somebody to love, and somebody to love her. "Sweet, wonderful you, you make me happy with the things you do", shows how much she adores Curry and how well he treats her.
When she sings, "I never did believe in miracles, but I have a feeling its time to try. I never did believe in the ways of magic, but I'm beginning to wonder why", it shows Christine is experiencing emotions she has never felt before. Curry is so important to her that in him she finds miracles and magic. She continues with, "Don't, don't break the spell", letting us know she doesn't want this "magic" to ever end, that she's happy and content with Curry. Curry made loving fun for Christine, something John may or may not have done for her. Either way, she had found the kind of love she was looking for with him and it was fun.
Sweet wonderful you,
You make me happy with the things you do,
Oh, can it be so,
This feeling follows me wherever I go.
I never did believe in miracles,
But I've a feeling it's time to try,
I never did believe in the ways of magic,
But I'm beginning to wonder why.
Don't, don't break the spell,
It would be different and you know it will,
You, you make loving fun,
And I don't have to tell you but you're the only one.
You make loving fun.
You make loving fun.

Apr 28, 2012 - That guiro that Stevie is playing is reminiscent of Will Ferrel's cowbell! Ill-placed.

Apr 26, 2012 - Great track. Always preferred Christine's voice to Stevie's. No annoying scarf-wafting, either.

stratoreverb Says:
Apr 5, 2012 - Christine Perfect Mcvie is one of the very top legendary female singer/songwriters. And to Think that she is in the same group that Peter Green, Danny Irwan, Jeremy Spencer, and the rest is a mind boggling thought.

Jan 8, 2012 - Nearly forgot to mention their Mirage tour DVD. I'd say all of their live stuff is recommendable. FM one of the best live performing bands I know.
mier0601 Says:
Jan 8, 2012 - @mrfrosty3 The live album I absolutely love best is the one that was simply titled "Live". The DVD of the Tango In The Night tour is great as well, even though Lindsay wasn't part of the band at the time. More recent there is the compilation of their 2003 concert at the Boston Fleet Hall, great to see how each of the members still shows so much energy when playing. Also worth watching (!) is the classic album series doc. about "Rumours", doesn't include full live performances though.

Dec 31, 2011 - I've been fond of Fleetwood Mac since the 1980's when my folks were into them. I've just started watching their live performances and I'm astounded at the musicality, energy and charisma of the band. Can anyone strongly recommend some live albums to me?
