Fleetwood Mac’s 50-Year-Old Album Charts Higher Than Ever
Share this @internewscast.com

“Dreams” has remained one of Fleetwood Mac’s biggest hits ever since it was first released in the spring of 1977. The tune arrived just before the group’s iconic album Rumours, which followed about a month later.

Both “Dreams” and Rumours hit No. 1 on their respective charts, and in the decades since, they’ve remained hugely successful commercially. This week is especially notable for “Dreams,” as the nearly half-century-old cut rises across every major ranking.

Fleetwood Mac Returns to No. 1

Fleetwood Mac is once again in control of the Rock Streaming Songs chart, Billboard’s ranking of the most successful individual rock tracks on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and iHeartRadio in the U.S. “Dreams” steps up from No. 2 to No. 1, replacing “Back to Friends” by newcomer Sombr.

A Resurgence That Started in 2020

“Dreams” first conquered the Rock Streaming Songs chart almost half a decade ago. The track debuted on the list in February 2020 and climbed to the summit in October of that year. Including that period, “Dreams” has now led the tally for nine nonconsecutive stretches.

Over the past five-plus years, “Dreams” has spent 287 weeks somewhere on the Rock Streaming Songs ranking. That easily makes it the band’s longest-running win. In fact, its tenure outpaces both “The Chain” and “Landslide,” which have collectively managed just 91 frames on the same list.

A Strong Performance Across Multiple Rankings

Fleetwood Mac sees “Dreams” climb on all four Billboard tallies where it currently appears in the U.S. It’s even performing well enough to rise on the all-genre Streaming Songs chart, where it jumps from No. 38 to No. 29. The smash becomes a top 40 hit again on the Billboard Global 200 again, narrowly jumping into that region as it lands at No. 40. At the same time, it pushes to No. 106 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S.

Fleetwood Mac is lucky to have one track that’s still popular enough after decades to appear on the Rock Streaming Songs ranking, which is a relatively uncommon feat for any legacy act – but that’s not the end of the story. The group also claims a second spot on the same list, as “The Chain” dips from No. 16 to No. 23.
