As Long As You Follow

As Long As You Follow” is a song written by Christine McVie and Eddy Quintela and recorded by McVie with Fleetwood Mac as one of two original tracks on their 1988 Greatest Hits compilation released in November, 1988. The other new track on the album was a Stevie Nicks track,, “No Questions Asked”. These two new recordings marked the first studio recordings to feature new guitarists Billy Burnette and Rick Vito.

As Long As You Follow was released as a single and although not a major success in worldwide terms it did reach number 19 in both Canada and Ireland. In the UK, the single reached number 66 on the UK Singles Chart and missed the top 40 in the United States, peaking at number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart; however, the song did spend one week at number one on the Billboard adult contemporary chart in January 1989.

The song reappeared on the double CD edition of The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac released in 2002, and the triple CD anthology 50 Years - Don't Stop released in 2018.

The single's b-side was a live recording of the Peter Green classic Oh Well with Billy Burnette on lead vocals. This had been previously featured on the Tango in the Night concert video. The CD single also included the track Gold Dust Woman from the Rumours album.

As Long As You Follow was Fleetwood Mac’s 12th Hot 100 hit during the eighties.
