Fleetwood Mac's 'Everywhere' Tops Global Charts After 40 Years

Fleetwood Mac's enduring hit, "Everywhere," released in 1987, has achieved an unexpected resurgence, securing a spot on the Billboard Global 200 chart. As of the April 18th ranking, the song sits at No. 188, driven by 9.6 million streams worldwide between April 3rd and 9th. This remarkable return nearly four decades after its initial release is amplified by its recent use in advertising campaigns, including spots for Chevrolet and a memorable one for PayPal featuring Will Ferrell.

Originally featured on the 1987 album "Tango in the Night," "Everywhere" was the fourth single released from the record. It previously peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1988, becoming the band's most recent top 20 hit. The song was penned by Christine McVie, who also provided lead vocals, and co-produced by Lindsey Buckingham. The "Tango in the Night" album featured the band's classic lineup. "Everywhere" also topped the Adult Contemporary chart, following the success of "Little Lies."

Fleetwood Mac now has four songs on the Global 200 survey since its September 2020 launch. Their earlier hit, "Dreams," reached No. 10 in October 2020 and previously hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 1977. It currently ranks at No. 40 on the Global 200 with 19.2 million streams. Other '70s tracks, "Landslide" and "The Chain," have also hit new highs on the Global 200 this year, reaching No. 123 and No. 102, respectively. Numerous artists have covered "Everywhere," with Lissie praising its composition as "pop music at its best."
