"Peacekeeper" is a song by Fleetwood Mac, written by guitarist and vocalist Lindsey Buckingham, from the 2003 album ''Say You Will''. It was the first and most successful single released from the album. ==Background== "Peacekeeper" was written in 2000, three years before the release of "Say You Will", in a house Buckingham was renting with his wife. Like many of Buckingham's contributions on "Say You Will", "Peacekeeper" was originally going to appear on Buckingham's solo album, "Gift of Screws". However, Warner Bros told Buckingham to use all of his material for the upcoming Fleetwood Mac album instead. Warner Bros felt the song had the potential to become a hit, describing the song as "walking a line between something quite modern and something quite familiar". Warner Bros ultimately chose the song to become the album's first single. "Peacekeeper" entered the US charts at #93 on March 29. On May 17, seven weeks later, the song peaked at #80. The song spent eleven consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://acharts.us/song/125 )〕 In New Zealand, the single proved to be far more successful, eventually reaching #31 on the New Zealand Singles Chart. On the other hand, it failed to chart in the UK. This was also the band's 25th, as well as their most recent song to reach the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100. This was also Buckingham's first US hit since Family Man, which peaked at #90 in 1988. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peacekeeper (Fleetwood Mac song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
