Fleetwood Mac Hit Lands on the Billboard Chart for the First Time Ever 50 Years After Release

Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide” just hit the Billboard Hot 100 for the very first time… fifty years after it came out. Half a century later, and it debuts at #41, all thanks to being featured in the Stranger Things series finale. Guess the Upside Down really does weird things to time.

Back in 1975, “Landslide” wasn’t even a Top 100 hit — wild, considering it’s gone double platinum and sold over two million copies. The only version that ever charted before this was a live one from their 1997 album, The Dance, which made it to #51 in ‘98. Close, but no cigar.

Still, fifty years later, Stevie Nicks’ gentle heartbreak ballad finally gets its chart moment. Thanks to seven million streams, a few radio spins, and a few thousand nostalgic downloads, “Landslide” is finally where it belongs — soaring up the charts.
