The show obviously wasn\u2019t missing classics like <em>Rhiannon<\/em>, <em>Edge of Seventeen,<\/em>\u00a0or <em>Gold Dust Woman<\/em>, but it was the short stories Stevie told about the unheard songs that made the concert so special.<\/p>\n<p>She told about the beginning of her career, her experience as a waitress, a broken Toyota she eventually started missing after driving a limo, and an outfit she bought because she always knew she was someone. Her solo career was very important to her and she mentioned that after <em>Wild at Heart<\/em> became a hit, she could say that \u201c<em>Bella Donna<\/em> was not a fluke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Fleetwood Mac was still a big part of her life and for certain reasons, she didn\u2019t get to publish everything that she has ever written. It seemed like performing the records, that at some point ended up in the &#8221;gothic trunk of lost songs&#8221;, was a unique experience both for her, and the audience. Watch <em>Crying in the Night,<\/em> which the artist released as a preview:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Stevie Nicks - Crying in the Night (Stevie Nicks 24 Karat Gold The Concert) | In Cinemas Oct 21 &amp; 25\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rsQcpkuSR_A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>With her flowy shawl, iconic tambourine, and soothing velvet voice, every song had something magical in it. The lyrics felt personal, especially after hearing what it really was about. Stevie told stories about Lindsey Buckingham, Tom Petty, or the time she met Prince before he was really famous.<\/p>\n<p>It was great to listen to all these anecdotes, even though they happened at least thirty years ago. Stevie Nicks on stage is timeless, just as her songs. So maybe that\u2019s why <em>Dreams<\/em> are back on the charts after nearly half a century.\u00a0Magdalena, 22, said: \u201cI think her music is ageless, and the sound not basic, so it really stays with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>People on social media mention how they started listening to Fleetwood Mac. Their beginnings vary from hearing the band first on the radio, learning about it from their parents, or seeing Stevie Nicks guest-starring in the <em>American Horror Story<\/em> TV series.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"RHIANNON BY STEVIE NICKS AHS COVEN\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SHnG6eajH3Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>She has certainly been an influential figure over the years.
