    Neil’s Message

    I was honoured to be asked to write a song – Find Your Way Back Home – to support the fundraising for an amazing new building in New Zealand. It’s called HomeGround and is being developed by the Auckland City Mission to create a path for many of our people to find their way back home.  

    I was so grateful to have the talent and support of my Fleetwood Mac bandmates Stevie, Christine and Mike, along with my son Elroy and fellow Kiwi singer Georgia Nott, to help me make this recording. 

    Stream the song here with all royalties going to the Mission.

    I have always been aware of how important the City Mission is in our community, representing and supporting every day the homeless people of Auckland. Now more than ever, as we shelter in place I am reminded that everyone deserves to have a home where they can feel safe and be well.

    I hope you enjoy this recording of Find Your Way Back Home. To find out more about the incredible building or make a donation, go to Auckland City Mission: Homeground.

    ‘Find Your Way Back Home’ Lyrics

    The memory is easy
    Somehow I never got to say farewell to you
    It’s been a long, lonely path for you
    I was keeping all my thoughts inside
    When I saw you on the street tonight
    (Ooh ooh…)
    Oh my, it’s like staring at an empty page
    When the story’s gonna have to be laid

    Hoping that you find your way
    I’m hoping that you find your way back
    Hoping that you find your way back home in time
    In your own time

    We are related
    I could be the one that could clear a path for you
    (I could clear a path)
    Instead of the one that would look away from you
    Have a mind if you care
    Love will always find you there
    (Ooh ooh…)
    Coming in on a wing and a prayer

    Hoping that you find your way
    I’m hoping that you find your way back
    Hoping that you find your way back home in time
    (In time…)
    I’m helping you to find your way
    Knowing that you’ll get there one day
    Helping you to find your way back home in your own time
    In your own time

    Someone I knew
    I’m sending out a smile to you

    Helping you to find your way
    Helping you to find your way back home
    Helping you to find your way
    You’re gonna find your way back home
    Sooner or later

    (Find your way…)
    You are the one that could clear a path
    Come on home, baby
    (Find your way…)
    One of these days it’ll come to pass
    Sooner or later
    (Find your way…)
    No, you’re gonna find your way back home
    Knowing that you’re gonna way your way
    Sooner or later

  • Fleetwood Mac kicks off ’50 Years’ tour

    Fleetwood Mac kicks off ’50 Years’ tour

    The newly rebooted Fleetwood Mac, with new members Neil Finn and Michael Campbell, kicked off its “50 Years” tour on Wednesday night at the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, performing a diverse set list, which drew from the band’s vast 50-year catalog.

    It was the band’s first show of the tour without guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, who was dismissed from Fleetwood Mac in February. Addressing that elephant in the room, the band steered clear of most of Buckingham’s songs, but honored his indelible contributions to Fleetwood Mac’s enduring history with his first band composition “Monday Morning” from 1975’s self-titled “white album” and his most famous one “Go Your Own Way,” from Grammy’s 1977 Album of the Year, the almighty Rumours.

    The group kept perennial favorites in the set — “Dreams,” “Rhiannon,” Say You Love Me,” among many others. But they occasionally delved deep into their back-catalog, pulling tracks from 1973’s Mystery to Me (Bob Welch’s mysterious “Hypnotized”), 1979’s Tusk (Stevie Nicks’ remorseful “Storms), and 1987’s Tango in the Night (the obscure UK single “Isn’t It Midnight”). The message was clear: Fleetwood Mac was a productive entity with and without Buckingham.

    That work ethic began 50 years ago when Fleetwood Mac released its first recording on the Blue Horizon label, as a British blues act. In Tulsa, they acknowledged these roots by playing two songs from their formative years with Fleetwood Mac co-founder Peter Green: “Oh Well” and the pre-Santana “Black Magic Woman” (on which Stevie Nicks took the lead); and another two songs for the transitive years that followed (1969-1974) before Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined Fleetwood Mac: “Tell Me All the Things You Do” from 1969’s Kiln House and “Hypnotized” from 1973’s Mystery to Me.

    And the tributes continued with the present day, as Stevie Nicks honored the late Tom Petty with a touching rendition of “Free Fallin’,” with former Heartbreakers’ guitarist Michael Campbell strumming right along in memoriam.

    The highly accomplished Neil Finn (of Crowded House fame) and Michael Campbell (of the aforementioned Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers) showcased their talents, as well, with Finn taking the male lead on many songs, notably in “Second Hand News.” Finn also played two of his own tracks, Split Enz’s 1980 hit “I Got You” and Crowded House’s 1986 anthem “Don’t Dream It’s Over.” The low-key Campbell served as a strong guitar lead for the band and sang lead on Peter Green’s blues rocker “Oh Well,” a favorite cover tune of Tom Petty.

    The surprising show closer, “All Over Again,” from 1995’s Time, paid homage to another period in the band’s history without Buckingham. With lyrics like “Well it’s it’s time to move on to the rain / And finally break the chain / In spite of the heartaches / And troubles in love / I’d do it all over (do it all over),” it will was a fitting counterpart to the show’s opener “The Chain” and, more importantly, upholding the creed that has defined the band all these years, simply “Don’t stop,” or ironically as Buckingham might put it, “Let’s get on with the show.”

    ‘New’ Fleetwood Mac performs on Ellen Show

    Fleetwood Mac returned to the limelight this week, performing “The Chain” and “Gypsy” with new members Neil Finn and Michael Campbell on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The performance ramps up promotion for the band’s upcoming world tour, which kicks off in Tulsa, Oklahoma on October 3rd.

    During the performance, there appeared to be some audio-mixing issues, as the sound levels for Stevie and Christine’s microphones were noticeably lower. Despite the technical glitch, the band performed well together, showcasing the musical talents of its newest veteran members. (Finn fronts the accomplished band Crowded House and Campbell comes from the legendary Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.)
