She also included the lyrics to a song “that has been swirling around in my head over and over and over” by Haim, that she said she had hoped to get to sing to her.
Mick Fleetwood also said farewell on Twitter. “This is a day where my dear, sweet friend Christine McVie has taken to flight and left us earthbound folks to listen with bated breath to the sounds of that “song bird”…. Part of my heart has flown away today… I will miss everything about you Christine McVie. Memories abound … they fly to me.”
Neil Finn, who surprised the world by joining Fleetwood Mac in 2018, spoke about McVie on Facebook. “It is a very sad day. Christine McVie was a unique and soulful woman, supremely gifted songwriter and a warm and wonderful friend. I am so grateful to have shared some hours in her beautiful presence.”
