Say You Will is an album by British/American band Fleetwood Mac, released in 2003. It was the first Fleetwood Mac album in over 30 years not to include tracks written by vocalist/keyboardist Christine McVie, who had left the group in 1998. Christine is featured as a background vocalist on three songs, which had been originally recorded for an unreleased Lindsey Buckingham solo album (tracks 2, 13 & 14).
Say You Will was the first Fleetwood Mac studio album to peak in the top 3 in the US since 1982's Mirage.[1] The album was certified Gold by the RIAA in July 2003 for 500,000 copies sold in the US. As of January 2009, it had sold 858,000 copies according to Nielsen SoundScan. It has also been certified Gold in the UK for 100,000 copies sold.
A limited-edition version of this disc was issued at the same time, featuring two live tracks ("Peacekeeper" and "Say You Will"), two additional studio tracks (Nicks' "Not Make Believe" and Buckingham's cover of Bob Dylan's "Love Minus Zero/No Limit"), an expanded booklet and poster.
