Fleetwood Mac: Hold Me (1981 Music Video)
9/10
A desert full of wonders and Fleetwood Mac
15 May 2024
"Hold Me" gives us Fleetwood Mac playing explorers on the Mojave Desert, California, either trying to find treasures or find themselves as they deal with some mirage-like effects told in a very artistic manner through shattered mirrors, guitars on the sand, and a tribute to Rene Magritte's famous man in the bowler hat. And obvious that Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie perform the song in a series of close-up shots.

It's all surreal, mysterious and fun to watch. The idea of the art elements, always seen through the distance, works with the notion of such characters (band members) trying to hold whatever they're seeing but they know they can't as it's all a mirage (though it's not played in the typical Hollywood fashion, it's more like a collage of elements where you can use such idea of a fata morgana). And the song that goes with it it's one of their greatest musical moments, pretty close to their "Rumours" days, great quality and style. 9/10.
