"Think About Me" is a song by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in March 1980. The song was composed by Fleetwood Mac keyboardist Christine McVie. The song peaked at number 20 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 singles chart and number 24 on Canada's ''RPM'' Top 100 Singles chart.〔 〕〔 〕 "Think About Me" was considered a hit but was not included in the 1988 album ''Greatest Hits'' but was included in the 2002 album ''The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac''. Canadian indie rock band The New Pornographers recorded a cover version of the song for the 2012 compilation album ''A Tribute to Fleetwood Mac''. The version features backward-sounding guitars and Carl Newman on lead vocals.〔 〕 == Reception == In 1979, Ed Harrison of ''Billboard'' called the song "a more rocking, guitar punctuated tune backed with superb harmonies" and complimented McVie's songwriting.〔Harrison, Ed. (Closeup ), October 27, 1979, ''Billboard'', p. 90〕 Steve Morse of ''The Boston Globe'' gave the single a positive review, calling "predictably bouncy".〔Morse, Steve. "'Tusk' rates a hat's off", October 15, 1979, p. 27〕 In 2003, Rob Brunner of ''Entertainment Weekly'' gave the album a positive review, noting that it was a "must" and "fascinating mess, full of enough good songs", "Think About Me" included. In 2010, Alfred Soto of PopMatters described the song as "the unlikeliest of things: a McVie rocker." Soto called it "a near-perfect punk number that snuck in below the radar" and that it was "anchored by her electric piano, (Lindsey) Buckingham's fuzzed-up 'Day Tripper'-esque riff," and "the most sarcastic lyrics of McVie's career," referring to the couplet, “I don’t hold you down/Maybe that’s why you’re around.”〔 〕 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「Think About Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
