Fleetwood Mac - Landslide [Lyrics] 

If you’re reading this, I hope whatever’s hurting you atm heals sooner rather than later

"We didn't even realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun." -Winnie the Pooh

I'm 48 years old was paralyzed 5 years ago and now was diagnosed with cancer. The landslide didn't bring me down yet I'm still going.😂

When this song makes perfect sense to you, you're finally an adult.

"Well, I've been fraid of changin cause I built my life around you." line always makes me cry

Every time I hear this song, I think of my dad. He was my rock, and I never imagined my life without him in it. Now, nearly 20 years after he passed away, I believe he still guides me in my life. ❤

Life won't be as good and that's okay with me. Rest in peace, mom and dad.

this has to be one of the most moving songs ever. in tears

My mother just passed away today, I'm 26 and she was only 57. She loved Fleetwood mac as well as I do.

She wrote this song for her dad. How wonderful would it of been to have a dad you loved so much and that loved you back. I think the heartbreak of loss would be bitter but having nothing to lose is so empty

Fleetwood Mac are Arguably the most important band of the 1970s....

Thank you, Mom, for all the sacrifices you made to make my life better than what you had. All the wonderful Christmases, Thanksgivings, and Halloweens. For buying me a stereo in high school so I could listen to all my records and 8-tracks. And for offering to stay home from work on my first day of high school. You are/were such genuinely good people.

Honestly, I'm afraid of this song, because it is one of the most "honest," songs that describes life in general. It helps me to let go of my youth, and that is hard for me. I'm getting older, I'm not how I once was, that's life, and I have to accept that.😔

This song taught me that nothing is permanent, as much as we want it to be , in the end when we’ve died and passed on , the remenants of us will be washed away . That’s why it’s so important to live in the moment .❤

my grandma passed away on february 8th 2023. this is the last song we listened to together before she left. now i hear it on the radio so often and i know it’s her ❤️

R.I.P Cristine McVie. May God rest your soul.

I’m now realizing that I’m getting older

"I'm glad it was you in the end." - Rosita Espinosa

I dont have a tear in my eye. I have eyes in my tears ....

today the world lost legend Fleetwood Mac's Christiane passed away aged 79, thoughts go out to her family and friends. R.I.P Christiane 💐💐💐💐💐😢😢😢😢😢💖💖💖💖

I'm sorry, Mom, for anything I did that caused you pain or suffering or worry. I'm sorry that you were my punching bag for all my emotions and insecurities.

This song got me thinking. I am going through some changes right now. My wife had a stroke. And she is in a nursing home for rehab. I have never been alone in my life. I visit her almost every day. But I have to come home to an empty bed every day. I miss her at home. The lyrics got me thanking.

This song has always reduced me to a crying, blubbering mess.... But since my son passed away, it breaks me.

This will always be a reminder that life is fragile and short. When it comes to children, they are a reminder you are getting older and life will move on without you. When the part that says "children getting older" it makes an impact, makes you think about life more which is why so many people resonate with this song 5 decades later.

POV: You take a last look on your room, your empty room. Your entire room filled with memories was cleaned in one day, all gone. All u can see is an empty room. Your mum calls your name downstairs tells u its time to go, you responded and take a final look at your room and close the door. You go downstairs and get in to your car. When you hear the engine starts you look at your house one last time as your dad back up the car and head to the road. Your mum tells you its a long drive.

My husband who died used to sing and play this on guitar for me... Come here everytime i need a good cry...

“And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.”

I watched my daughter try to stand up yesterday. I’m closer to 30 than 20 now. I’m a young man, but I know what’s coming. This song cuts deep, at any age…

It's been a crazy twelve years, but it's finally the end of Walking Dead. Thank you, AMC for making such an awesome show!

The older you get the more you hate this song but the more you think about it and the more you relate to it. You younger people still in your teens and twenties will understand in a couple of decades. That's going to happen fast. You live a good life. Don't waste it.

When I hear this song I think of my big brother who was my everything, through all of my families loss even my own babies he was always there for me. It's the child within me that won't let me let go. I couldn't even go to his funeral because I knew I wouldn't survive it. I had surgery a week ago and was told I had some heart damage I honestly think it's from missing my brother so much. Some of you will understand and some of you won't 😔

Who is from the walking dead series finale. Man it's was very satisfying and this song made me cry 😢

R.I.P. Rosita Espinosa, 😣.

"But time makes you bolder even children get older" hits hard❤

I hear this an my mom comes to mind with a tear in my eye.

One of the greatest songs ever written.

This song makes me tear up when I think of all the changes I've been ushered through.

For me this song never really hit until this year. I've struggled with depression and suicidal ideation since I was a child and this year I had TMS and an epiphany that rid me of the suicidal ideation, but not the depression. Now I'm struggling to figure out how to live with the knowledge that consequences of what I do or don't do are inevitable and inescapable. I'm struggling to learn how to live the life I now understand I'm 'stuck' with, after decades of sleeping through it with one eye open and on the exit. I'm struggling with the understanding that I am, actually, going to age, deteriorate, suffer countless new sufferings, and eventually die not on my own terms but incidentally. I was never really "afraid of changing" because I didn't feel like I could, but now that I've finally changed I'm terrified. I have "built my life around" this mental illness. And all these awful realizations feel like a "landslide." If you read through all this thank you, it means a lot. I'm feeling very alone and afraid but these feelings are temporary as are they all. I will "sail through the changing ocean tides" and I will find a way to "handle the seasons of my life." We all will with time.

I played this song to the man I loved, adored and who could never love me back in the way i deserved. I played it whilst changing our newborn baby's nappy as I realised this was the end of the dream. And that I had to leave him because he didnt love me.

I make it short and simple how i felt about the season finale of TWD... I cried. A lot. It was beautiful, heartbreaking and the right ending of the series and i like the fact that carls dream about the future comes true.🥲🥺

This is absolutely one of the most beautiful songs ever made it just puts you in a different place

This song makes me reflect on my 31 years of life.

I first heard this song when I was about 9 years old. My daughter is now 11. Definitely getting older too.

Watching here host sending you my love support

RIP CHRISTINE MCVIE WE LOVE YOU 💕

Can you truly listen to this song without crying?

This was my mother's song. 25 years of horrendous domestic abuse by my father. "Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides? " "Can I handle the seasons of my life? Mhmm.. I don't know... " "Well I've been afraid of changin' cuz I built my life around you, but time makes you bolder even children get older and I'm getting older too... " She couldn't do it anymore, she had no identity but "John's wife". Even children get older, her hell on earth became worse when her children got older. We grew up, we left the home and he was alone with her, and and she was alone with him. (Oh trust me... I dropped out of college, I was always the adult child, I rescued her or tried to time and time again, but there are just temporary or just Band-Aids. She didn't work, got pregnant in high school, married him, he had all the power and control and was in charge of everything. She didn't think for herself, she didn't cook for herself, she didn't dress for herself, she didn't get to live her own life. A prisoner, beat down). And like the song goes and "I'm getting older too." She filed for divorce. She tried to break free. She lived in a women's shelter. She filed for Social Security disability. Elaine was the first person in the state of Utah to sue the Social Security administration all the way to the Supreme Court. At this time, my mom was homeless and living in her car in a parking lot. Her car didn't run but she didn't have gas or anywhere to go so it didn't matter it was shelter. I broke free too and was living my life, finally in California. She didn't call very much those days, I didn't know she was living in her car. For most people who file for disability, they have a support system they have a spouse and they have a job or financial means our family or friends to lean on or to live with while waiting for a disability, that wasn't the case for my mother. The Social Security administration ask for, yet another continuance. They claimed that her file must have been sent back to Washington and they're having trouble finding it because it's misplaced so they need time to find her file, to find the case. September 13th 1994 My mom age 50. And me, age 24. When the judge granted Social Security administration disability the continuance, my mom could no longer continue living on this Earth. I got the phone call while at work, booked a flight, flew to Utah, rented a car, drove myself to the morgue, identified her body, sign the death certificate, self inflicted wound to the head. I paid $100 in the state of Utah cremated her, have you had me a small white shoe box, ashes still warm. "Oh-oh take my love and take it down." "And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills well the Landslide bring it down." MOM, I LOVE YOU! I drove up Provo Canyon, my mom sitting next to me in the passenger seat buckled in her white little shoe box. And it began to rain. I yelled at the heavens, threw my arms in the air, I looked up to the sky, to God and yelled at him and desperation, "God help me! Show me a sign! I don't know where to stop, God I need you show me a sign now!" And at that very moment I looked straight ahead through the windshield, and braked! What stood before me, in the middle of the highway, was a mommy deer stuck in my headlights, trying to get her little doe safely across the road. I swear I had a connection with that deer, she looked at me and said cried out, "God help me, help me protect this little one." Clearly I had my sign. Her perfect resting place, A mother and her child. What could be more fitting? I pulled to the side of the road, I had stopped at a 7-Eleven before heading up the canyon and purchased my first pack of cigarettes, Marlboro lights for my mom. Of course I didn't think to get a lighter so thank God the car lighter worked and let her have her last drag. With "Mom" in tow, and my boombox with the Fleetwood Mac Landslide cassette tape, I hiked up the Wasatch mountain and came upon a tiny little pine tree. I played her song, Landslide and sprinkled some of her ashes on the baby tree in the sprinkling rain. When the song was over, once again, I looked up to the heavens, but this time it was to thank God. AND what to my wondering eyes should appear? But a double rainbow, of course. I was 24 years old, broke, just getting started in the world. There was no life insurance, retirement, savings. No funeral, flowers, memorial, urn. While at the airport was waiting to board my plane, I found a metal tin that had mints in it, "TESTA - MINTS", Christian mints, cross, dove, scripture on individual wrappers. The metal tin was purple, my favorite color. I used to ask my mom what her favorite color was, her favorite food, she honestly didn't know, she didn't have time to know things like that, but she did recall she loved pansies since she was a little girl because of their smiling faces. The purple, Christian Mint tin had a butterfly 🦋 on it. That last year, I remember my mom saying she loved butterflies. At 50 years old, discovering and seeing the world through a child's eyes, for her it was the first time. "Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal." - John Muir and / or -Thomas Moore. My mom also told me she would have to say her favorite flower was a Pansy, because it had a smiling face. Pansy is derived by the French word pensee, "thought." 15th century regarded as a symbol of remembrance. Rest in peace Elaine 💕 I am her daughter, 50 years old, awaiting social security disability determination on my appeal...

Always loved Fleetwood Mac but the walking dead finale has brought me even closer to them 🥹🥹❤️💔

10 years ago this played in a bar where my mom bought me for my first drink at 21. This year at 31 she passed away and this song played in my head so much. Now I hear it its time to cry. Life is so short and so precious damn

Supergirl season finale brought me here 😭 This song makes me think of my grandma and how much I miss her 💔

This song breaks my heart. It reminds me of a happy part of my life, that has long since passed. It reminds me of the great memories of my childhood

Well I've been afraid of changing... cause I built my life around you.. But time makes you bolder, even children get older.. And I'm getting older too.. 2024❤

Love you Dad. Fly high above the mountains.

The day you understand the lyrics to this song, your childhood has died.

Everyone on this page deserves mercy and love 😌

Rest easy Christine!!!!

Been waiting years to tell my grandfather, that this would be our song to dance to at my wedding. I never had a good relationship with my father, I was into stuff, so was he and he enabled me. Conflicted if I want him there or not.. but I know I want my dance to be with my grandfather.

South Park using this in "you're getting old" is the epitome of bittersweet artistic moments

I miss you so much grandma.....so so so much....happy birthday.....I'll see you again some day

My mom sang this all the time while I was growing up and now I'm crying listening to it

TWD Series Finale ♥️

This song was uploaded on 16th June my birthday how ironic, the song was played at my 26 yr old daughters funeral last April. Every day is so hard dealing with losing my little girl

This song helped me become an adult. I listen to it whenever I have trouble letting go. I love it.

This is the 1st song I remember hearing from them and love it.

this song means throwing away the facade of a human you’ve been because you’ve just been existing without actually living and healing your inner child that has been screaming for help all this time.

I try not to be hurt. Takes too much of me away. Life is a game. Play to win or just hang around. Matters not. Be true to you. Thats the ticket. Lucia the once fair haired child of the ocean. Best time of my life.

I miss you so much dad and grandma. Losing you this last year has been the worst ever !!! :,( !!!!!!!!!!!!

I lost two brothers. I play this song over and over. I miss them.

Completely off topic from the song, the guy who posted this video is STILL commenting under and liking every comment AND reply to comments. Absolute madlad

I lost my dad when I was only a year and a half old. I don't have one memory, but I remember my mom listening to this all the time when I was a kid. " Well Ive been afraid of changing, cuz Ive built my life around you" was what she used to sing the loudest.

My lifes been built Around Him My Lord and God

This song made me cry during fucking SOUTH PARK. That's how good it is.

I'm using my husband's account to write this when I hear this song I think of my mom she passed away 4 years ago from Cancer, I'm 36, she loved Fleetwood Mac sometimes I look at old pictures of me and my siblings growing up and cry were all grown now. RIP mom love and miss you gone but not forgotten 😢

I fell in love with this song 6months before my dad passed away. I could feel that a big wave of sorrow was coming my way & I would cry when I listened to it. But at that time I didn’t know she dedicated this song to her dad & at the time I didn’t know this song was preparing me for losing mine

Time ,.... Brings Clarity! One day.... Reflection becomes ,... Everything

Rest in peace....singing this out for you and everyone else. this ssong changed lives I hope you and everyone else finds peace in this life and the after...thank you for everything

Facebook said this is my “sad” song. I’m not going to lie I’m tearing up…😭

As long as you hold someone in your heart you can never lose them....Ever

getting older is the worst :(

This song hits so different the older I get.. ❤/💔

Many tears. Thinking of all of the loved ones that I’ve lost, whether that may be in passing or just drifting apart. Family and friends...and the feeling of time passing so quickly. I’m nostalgic for the past :(

We've been waiting since Glen died to see them at that dinner table all together! Thank you Walking Dead!

My favorite Fleetwood Mac song.

My dad's Dr finally said the words "dementia" today. After his apt I took a drive to take a minute for myself and when I got home and pulled into the driveway, this song came on... Hit me hard.

hold on stan “South Park”😢

"If you set your goals ridiculously high and it's a failure, you will fail above everyone else's success." -James Cameron

He always gives me the room to grow,,,thought I was stronger than I thought...so don't worry he's helping me you were apart of the repairs needed Thanks

I revolves my entire life around my girlfriend. I thought she was my soulmate, I thought I would marry her one day. Dated for a year and a half (I know that isn’t long but it meant a lot to me, I have abandonment trauma) and after a year and a half she tells me she never loved me. When we broke up I was afraid, I didn’t know how I would move on, I was broken. This song helped. I’ll always mourn the person I was when I was with her. I was happy. I miss that person.

I lost my great grandfather last month, he was my best friend and father figure. This song literally makes me cry realizing now all I have is memories and life is changing way to fast and I don’t know how to deal with everything. I’m only 14, life is hard and people keep saying it gets harder...

I love this song in Jack Frost. It makes me cry everytime.

I had to leave my life behind last year I was afraid of changing but my children have flown long ago and I was lost, I am now trying to find myself again .....

Can I handle the season's of my life. Always hits me. And thinking if I made the right decisions in my life.

I'm singing this in a wedding on Sunday 🥰

I remember 10 years ago when I first moved out at 19 - I kept listening to this song because it was hard for me to grow up and be on my own (it was hard on my parents too because I was their baby). I was growing up and starting my life by moving out and going to college. And now 10 years later this song still relates because I’m a mother to 2 sons and I’ve grown up so much since and I’m going through a new obstacle of watching my kids grow and I’m getting old, plus my parents are getting old. It’s bitter sweet...

I don't know you ! But be strong keep on! life's so precious never forget that ,even on your very down days ! there's alight and new Day .❤🙏

Yes brought me down! I’ll rise again! To my special friend see u again ❤

This song was on the last episode of The Walking Dead.

“sometimes the only way to keep going in life is to make a left turn...”

It's an absolutely timeless song and voice! It's hard to believe this was released 1975, 48 years ago!😢 To all those amazing days we thought would last forever!❤

Cried as a child from the movie Jack frost when the dad died. Now at age 27 I cry because I can't handel the changing seasons of my life.
