Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham Tease After Mick Fleetwood’s Viral “Frozen Love” Video

“Frozen Love” Thaws Old Wounds: Could Lindsey and Stevie Be Ready to Turn the Page?

Or could this be the soft launch of a Buckingham Nicks album re-release?

Mick Fleetwood may have lit the match for the latest round of Fleetwood Mac speculation. On Wednesday the drummer shared a short video of himself listening—wide‑eyed and beaming—to “Frozen Love,” the seven‑minute closing track from Buckingham Nicks (1973). “Unbelievable,” he enthused. “The marriage of those two coming into Fleetwood Mac is right there in that song—magic then, magic now.”

Twenty‑four hours later the “marriage” answered.

Stevie Nicks posted the lyric on her Instagram feed “And if you go forward…,” and Lindsey Buckingham completed the line on his own Instagram feed: “I’ll meet you there.” One half‑sentence apiece was all it took to send fans racing to connect dots. After all, Buckingham Nicks was the record that changed their lives—and Fleetwood Mac’s—forever.

From High‑School Harmony to Soft‑Rock Alchemy

Nicks and Buckingham first harmonized as teenagers in a San Francisco‑area high‑school choir, then cut their teeth on the college‑circuit band Fritz. In 1972 they moved to Los Angeles, living on a friend’s floor while overdubbing vocals at legendary Sound City Studios. The resulting LP, Buckingham Nicks, married Buckingham’s finger‑picked guitar gymnastics to Nicks’ raspy, witch‑in‑waiting poetry. Polydor dropped the album months after release, but it caught one very important ear: Mick Fleetwood’s.

After Mick heard Buckingham blazing through “Frozen Love” at Sound City Studios and after Bob Welch decided to leave Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood needed a new guitarist and offered Lindsey the job; Buckingham famously refused unless Nicks came, too. One dinner date on New Years Eve 1974 between Lindsey, Stevie and the rest of the band, and Fleetwood Mac’s classic lineup was born. The self‑titled 1975 album—and Rumours two years later—turned personal heartbreak into pop gold, cementing the pair as rock’s most combustible ex‑couple.

Why the New Tease Matters

The social‑media call‑and‑response feels like more than nostalgia because it echoes Fleetwood’s public wish for détente. In 2024 the drummer told MOJO he still hopes for “healing” between Nicks and Buckingham after years of estrangement. Yet Nicks has been blunt that the band could never be the same without keyboardist and “songbird” Christine McVie, who died in 2022: “When she died, I figured we really can’t go any further with this,” she told Vulture last year.

So is a reunion imminent? or is this a teaser to a re-release of the Buckingham Nicks album which has never been reissued since the early 1970’s? The posts offer no concrete promises—only the same elliptical poetry that once turned private pain into multiplatinum confession. Still, the choreography is hard to ignore: Mick cues up the song; Stevie and Lindsey finish each other’s lyric.

For a group whose story has always blurred the line between soap opera and songcraft, that’s enough to make believers out of even the most battle‑scarred Fleetwood Mac faithful. We’ve been hurt before, sure—but those harmonies still have a way of making “maybe” feel like destiny.
