Wikipedia article
"'Say You Will'" is a song from British-American band Fleetwood Mac's 17th studio album, 'Say You Will' (2003). The song reached number seven on the US 'Billboard' Adult Alternative Songs chart and was performed live on Fleetwood Mac's Say You Will Tour. The song features vocals from American singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow, bass guitarist John McVie's daughter Molly McVie, singer Stevie Nicks' niece Jessica Nicks and Jessica's best friend Maddy Felsch.
Background
Nicks said the following in Performing Songwriter Magazine in 2003:
"...but that song is not just about Lindsey. Its about a movie I saw about Arturo Sandoval, the trumpet player...that was really my inspiration for that song. The chorus was written first, then I went back to write the verses... you have this great chorus that basically says, "If you dance with me, you wont be mad at me anymore. We can be in a huge argument, but if we put on some music and start to dance, everything will be great." Then I had to think about what to make the verses about. So I went back over all my relationships with people and think of different ways that I have felt when I wanted basically to burst into song and sing that chorus (laughs). Give me one more chance. Thats what came out of it. Its funny because, we just did an interview the day before yesterday, and I dont think any of the band knows that that was the reason I wrote the song."
