Gypsy

"Gypsy" is a song by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac. The song was written by Stevie Nicks around 1979; the earliest demo recordings were made in early 1980 with Tom Moncrieff for possible inclusion on her debut solo album Bella Donna. When Nicks' close friend Robin Anderson died of leukemia, the song took on a new significance and Nicks dedicated the song to her in future performances. "Gypsy" was released on 18 August 1982 as the second single from the group's thirteenth studio album Mirage (1982), and was the second biggest hit from the album, following "Hold Me", peaking at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, and became a number one hit on contemporary hit radio.
