老歌亂談(394)Go Your Own Way
這是一首「分手歌」。或許由於歌曲的作者---英美搖滾樂團Fleetwood Mac的吉他手Lindsey Buckingham，當時和交往多年的同團女歌手Stevie Nicks要分開，而格外的引起大家的注意和興趣。此曲於1977推出後，為Fleetwood Mac樂團首度打入美國排行榜前10名的歌曲。在英國的成績雖不理想，只得到第38名，唱片卻大賣了20萬張。
Lindsey Buckingham是直接以手指撥弦的知名吉他手，以往Fleetwood Mac樂團的歌曲並非以吉他主奏為特色，而在此曲中Lindsey Buckingham賣力的彈奏，有人說，聽得出來是因為失戀的緣故。呵呵！歌詞中的一句「Packing up, shacking up is all you want to do.」，曾在練唱時引起了一些爭執，shacking up的意思是同居，要打包要同居都看女方的意思，這句詞對Stevie Nicks來說當然有些不堪，而要求將之拿掉，但Lindsey Buckingham覺得有其強烈性而堅持保留。
雖然是分手歌，但歌曲還是較具正面的意義。本來嘛！好聚好散，當不成情人或許還是可以作朋友。Buckingham和Nicks還可同台演唱此曲，也算是替情人分手作了個最佳的正面示範。
此曲在滾石雜誌歷來500首最佳歌曲中排名第120。

1997現場演唱版，即興solo及鼓都很精彩。
Loving you
Is it the right thing to do?
How can I ever change things
That I feel?
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
go your own way
Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up's all you wanna do
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
Open up
Everything's waiting for you
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way...
Call it another lonely day...
you can go your own way...
