"Say You Love Me" is a song written by singer Christine McVie, for the group Fleetwood Mac's 1975 album, ''Fleetwood Mac''. The song peaked at #11 on the ''Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks, and remains one of their best known songs. Its success helped the group's eponymous 1975 album to sell over 8 million copies worldwide. In the UK, "Say You Love Me" was the fourth single from the ''Fleetwood Mac'' album, but the first to chart, where it peaked at #40 on the UK Singles chart in September 1976. In Canada, Shirley Eikhard covered "Say You Love Me" and released it as a single several weeks in advance of Fleetwood Mac in early June 1976. Eikhard took the song into the Canadian top 40, peaking at #34; Fleetwood Mac's version, released only a few weeks later, peaked at #29 in September. ==Background== Christine wrote this song after her fifth year in the band. During the writing of "Say You Love Me", Christine McVie was married to John McVie, bassist of Fleetwood Mac. The version used on the single release differs from the album version in that Lindsay Buckingham remixed the LP version and overdubbed additional guitar work. The single mix is the one used on the compilation 25 Years - The Chain. "Say You Love Me" has been performed on seven of Fleetwood Mac's tours since its release. In a rare occurrence, John McVie sang background vocals for the song during ''The Dance'' tour. In a Q&A Session, John McVie said that his ex-wife, Christine McVie, convinced him to do it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fleetwoodmac.net/penguin/qa/johnmcvie_qa1.htm )〕 In addition to its appearance on Fleetwood Mac's self-titled 1975 album, "Say You Love Me" appears on two other compilation albums by Fleetwood Mac: Greatest Hits (1988 Fleetwood Mac album) and 25 Years - The Chain. During McVie's departure, the song was performed on Fleetwood Mac's ''Unleashed Tour'' with Nicks and Buckingham sharing lead vocals. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Say You Love Me (Fleetwood Mac song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
