'You Make Loving Fun' is a song written and sung by Christine McVie of the British-American band Fleetwood Mac. It was released as the fourth and final 45 rpm single from the band's album Rumours in 1977. It was the record's fourth top-ten hit, as the song peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100.

Background[edit]

Now in 2014, Fleetwood Mac is back and touring and Christine McVie I understand has returned to the band. So, here's one of my favorite songs writ. 2002 – The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac. Go Your Own Way (3:39) 02. Don’t Stop (3:11) 03. Dreams (4:16) 04. Little Lies (3:38) 05. Everywhere (3:42) 06. Albatross (3:08) 07. You Make Loving Fun (3:33) 08. Rhiannon (Single mix, 1976) (3:47) 09. Black Magic Woman (2:51) 10. Say You Love Me (Single mix, 1976) (4:01.

The song was inspired by an affair McVie had with the band's lighting director, Curry Grant.[1] 'To avoid flare-ups', she told her then-husband John McVie that the song was about her dog.[2] On the American Top 40 program of November 26, 1977, Casey Kasem described the song as 'an emotional biography of the love lives of all five members.'[citation needed]

Early tracking of the song was done, according to McVie, in the absence of Lindsey Buckingham, which gave her the freedom to 'build the song on my own'. The recording sessions were saturated with cocaine use. Buckingham played rhythm guitar on a Fender Stratocaster, and tracking was done with a Rhodes Electric Piano, Nicks playing tambourine. John McVie's bass was rerecorded again later, and Christine McVie dubbed Hohner Clavinet parts.[2] In an interview with the New York Post she remarked that she wanted it to be the third US single from the album, but instead 'Don't Stop' was chosen, which boosted the album's commercial success in the US and the UK.[1] The song also utilizes descending seconds in its chord progression.[3]

'You Make Loving Fun' was a concert staple for Fleetwood Mac and was played during every tour involving Christine McVie from 1976 until 1997, a year before McVie's departure from the band and retirement from touring. It was briefly revived for Fleetwood Mac's 2014-2015 tour when McVie rejoined the band.[4]

Lyrics You Make Loving Fun

You make me happy with the things you do
This feeling follows me wherever I go
But I've a feeling it's time to try
But I'm beginning to wonder why
I never did believe in miracles but I've a feeling it's time to try
But I'm beginning to wonder why
It would be different and you know it will
And I don't have to tell you but you're the only one
