Stevie Nicks wrote 'Dreams' in about 10 minutes on a keyboard in a small, black-velvet-lined room at Record Plant Studios. At the time, the members of Fleetwood Mac were all going through breakups, and Nicks wrote the song about her split with guitarist Lindsey Buckingham. It became the band's only number-one hit in the United States. In 2020, over 40 years after its release, the song experienced a massive global resurgence after a TikTok video by Nathan Apodaca (420doggface208) went viral, featuring him skateboarding while drinking cranberry juice and listening to the track. The viral moment introduced the song to a new generation, causing it to re-enter the Billboard charts and triple its streaming numbers. This event is often cited as a prime example of how social media can breathe new life into classic hit songs, bypassing traditional marketing entirely.
