Why Fleetwood Mac's music resonated so deeply in 2020

Salon  

No viral video embodies 2020 more than the TikTok clip of Nathan Apodaca swigging Ocean Spray Cran-Raspberry juice while longboarding as Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" plays in the background. Not only did the clip very much exude tranquility — it also boosted "Dreams," which was already the only Fleetwood Mac song to reach No. Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks even joined TikTok to respond to Apodaca's video, with the former recreating the longboard trip and quipping "Dreams and Cranberry just hits different" in the caption. The London concert, dubbed Mick Fleetwood & Friends Celebrate The Music Of Peter Green And The Early Years Of Fleetwood Mac, featured current member Christine McVie and former Mac member Jeremy Spencer, as well as major guests such as Aerosmith's Steven Tyler, David Gilmour and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons.
