Buckingham, Lindsey - Go Insane Lyrics






Two kinds of people in this world
Winners, losers
I lost my power in this world
'Cause I did not use it

So I go insane
Like I always do
And I call your name
She's a lot like you

Two kinds of trouble in this world
Living, dying
I lost my power in this world
And the rumors are flying

So I go insane
Like I always do
And I call your name
She's a lot like you

Buckingham, Lindsey Go Insane Comments
  1. G.... B....

    I loved this song and video when it came out. Classic-Great vintage video one that helped make MTV so damn great. A great song and great video-Hey looks like Bill Murray could have made this doesnt it? What legend Buckingham went on to become! Now give me my MTV and Martha Quinn!!!!

  2. B.... ....

    Timeless music. Awesome guitar man and lead vocal. Absolutely.

  3. V.... C....

    I loves me early 80’s new waver Lindsey

  4. F.... V....

    Can someone explain to me why the relationship didn't work out between Lindsey and Stevie I mean did he cheat on her?
    because he brought a lot of music that seem to state that he missed her oral of Dory cared about her but then they just saw they couldn't be happy that kind of like check themselves from being happy seems like.
    I once came to a conclusion that I am very creative when I'm sad but I realized that sadness is a place I'd like to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.
    seems that Lindsey and Stevie knew that they got some kind of crate of energy from being volatile as a couple but at the same time it worked against their happiness.

  5. M.... J....

    How did Lindsay come up with this song? I'm speaking mainly of the music and singing style more so than the lyrics and theme. Was he just strumming the guitar and something clicked? I'm just fascinated with the creative process of it.

  6. G.... B....

    This video is AMAZING!

    Cocaine is a helluva drug...

  9. k.... ....

    Lindsey Buckingham's definitely a little bit crazy. And he's probably also a bit of an abusive asshole. Nevermind he's also determined to ruin his basic good looks with bad hairstyle choices.

    He's also the main reason Fleetwood Mac went from a moderately successful band to one of the biggest bands in history. And the only reason anyone's ever heard of Stevie Nicks.

  10. J.... A....

    I wanna sample this song for my 2nd album Concrete Democracy

  11. E.... ....

    I lost my power in this world... Cause I did not use it!

    I remember thinking this was the most amazing video when it came out!

  22. J.... Z....

    Love me some Lindsay Buckingham!

  23. C.... M....

    Both video and song exceed the hands of time

  24. W.... C....

    When you first learn how to use CGI

  25. G.... M....

    Ed ecco un altro bellissimo uomo

    Peace 🦋

  27. L.... S....

    One of my all time favourites!!. What does he keep repeating at the end of this song?

  28. J.... A....

    I want to sample this song for my artists

  29. A.... ....

    What a great song and what awesome lyrics. Lindsay is so underrated as a solo performer.
    I miss the 80's. I would sacrifice every last rap star on Earth to relive them one more time.

  30. P.... F....

    Trying to decide if this song or "Don't Answer Me" by the Alan Parsons Project is the more awesome 1980s song. Both songs sound great but the video for "Don't Answer Me" is the hands down winner. A pioneer for visual effects.

    Oh well....they both bring a smile to your face. :-)

  31. C.... S....

    I love this song :)

  32. F.... C....

    Great song

  33. H.... ....

    I remember my first breakdown

  34. R.... ....

    1st verse...Two kinds of people in this world winners/losers...I lost my powers in this world cause I did not use it...>>>>2nd verse... Two kinds of trouble in this world, living/dying. I lost my powers in this world and the rumors are flying....People let me ask you a question??? How the fuck do you make a hit with only 2 Yes only 2 small verses, and a repeating chorus throughout the whole song... Funny thing I really love this song, but damn when your young you don't really analize shit until you get much older...Lol!!!

  35. L.... D....

    Lindsey Buckingham is the Albert Einstein of modern music ! Yeah.. Lary

  36. P.... M....

    One of my favorite 80's videeos. I remember seeing it when I was 11 back in 1984, and still love it today. I also loved the record it was on. Great job Lindsey.

  37. C.... K....

    He's so beautiful

  38. h.... s....

    Lindsey Buckingham no more like Lindsey sucking ham

  39. R.... ....

  40. J.... S....

    The only version I knew of this Epic Tune was Fleetwood Mac! Thank you

  41. L.... F....

    erasehead hair style

  42. s.... ....

    The guyliner, the gigantic wedge of hair, the video visuals that make no sense, the electronic drums. So 80s. So delicious.

  43. N.... V....

    A remake of this song has been done by Ki-Theory https://youtu.be/4uzVRCuWSA0 You may like it its darker!!!

  44. R.... S....

    Please come back Lindsey…!

  45. J.... G....

    I remembered ALL of the lyrics, how bout that.

  46. J.... G....

    I'm here because I heard a really sloooow version of this song on "How to get away with murder" a couple days ago. I was hearing the lyrics and was thinking "I KNOW these lyrics, what song IS this ?" It took some time to remember since the version on that show was so slow and you couldn't hear all of the words in between the characters on the show talking. I finally remembered the song. I was anywhere between 12 and 14 years old when this song came out with Lindsey Buckingham singing it.

  47. B.... ....

    So early 80s!!

  48. L.... B....

    LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM. X. SO HOT. XXX GUITARIST X. Ice- Maiden. XXX

  49. G.... D....

    Linsey Buckingham&
    Stevie Nicks Is Fabulous!!!!

    G.... D....

    SparklingGold&BlueGreen,RainbowDiamonds Fuck Stevie. This guy has more talent in his pinky then she has in her whole body...

  50. O.... ....

    What a completely wonderful song, from back when I was probably certifiably insane. Lindsey, you are ferociously talented!

  51. S.... B....

    Cocaine is a hell of a drug...

  52. D.... M....

    Heard this song watching the 1st season of Miami Vice.

  53. S.... B....

    Heard this on 80's on 8 - SiriusXM. Check out the live performance Lindsay did on Fleetwood Mac The Dance tour. Amazing!

  54. c.... v....

    Most of his post fleetwood songs had a Stevie Nicks Innuendo.

  55. S.... S....

    Am I the only person still living in the eighties?

    S.... S....

    Nope - I am too. This whole album was amazing from start to finish.... however I still get kinda freaked out by that dude with the skinny blue head.

    Mango T for someone born in the 90s, how was it?

  60. m.... ....

    Those early days of music videos the directors did lots of drugs, all are so bizarre!

  61. A.... ....

    1984 was one of the single greatest years in music. Such a damn shame MTV got so fucked up.

    Dos tipos de personas en este mundo
    Los ganadores ... perdedores
    He perdido mi poder en este mundo
    Porque yo no lo uso
    Así que me vuelve loco
    Como siempre
    Y llamo su nombre
    Ella se parece mucho a usted

    Dos tipos de problemas en este mundo
    Vivir ... moribundo
    He perdido mi poder en este mundo
    Y los rumores están volando
    Así que me vuelve loco
    Como siempre
    Y llamo su nombre
    Ella se parece mucho a usted

    Así que me vuelve loco
    Como siempre

  65. f.... ....

    I always loved this song! thank you Lindsey for your music magic!

  66. S.... C....

    I discovered him coz uhhh I've been collecting records and I heard 'i want you' playing in a record shop. It was a bop and now I like everything I've heard so far but I was shook when I saw he was in Fleetwood mac. I was like hhvhfhhffg WHAT?? no wonder I like his music???

  67. P.... D....

    Such a gorgeous, talented man. Love this tune all these years later.

  68. C.... G....

    C.... G....

  69. N.... I....

    Season 1 of Miami Vice brought me here.

  70. A.... R....

    Eso Don instante par ti en su recuperacion

  71. M.... B....

    I don't see any comments finding this prophetic. He was given the Brian Jones treatment recently.

  72. M.... N....

    Debbie Gibson ripped off the music from this song on her 1990 song Anything is Possible.

  80. A.... V....

    That hair is insane

  81. a.... P....

    Lindsey is so handsome. He should have been on Peoples 50 beautiful people list. This song is insanely good. Lol.

    a.... P....

    Oohhh but that hair...looked better in his Holiday Road and Trouble videos. This looked like Thomas Dolby.

  82. T.... ....

    This video is the bomb in 1984

  83. M.... M....

    Insanely talented guy.

  84. L.... ....

    I love 80 New Wave

  85. J.... S....

    I know a woman who did this as a ballad and it blows away this version, her name is Janie Durbin I jammed with her and I wish I could find her version on you tube because it really sounds good

  86. M.... M....

    Lindsey Buckingham had a smoking cut here,dug the synth groove

  87. M.... B....

    Wow Lindsey really dug 80s pleated pants didn't he? Lol

  88. L.... C....

    The Mac needs Lindsey so much more than he needs them! I'll always love Lindsey. And Eighties music!

  89. T.... W....

    Tbs night tracks and Friday night videos baby!! For my fellow oldschoolers! Let's fly back to the good ole days!!

    T.... W....

    😊 👍

  90. C.... C....

    never underrated, but perhaps under celebrated singer/song writer and absolute guitar phenom. the influence he is in pop and the sheer courage displayed on his creative path is beyond compare. if you think he'll do the same thing twice then you will be sadly disappointed, but you will never be disappointed by what he brings to the stage or performance. this is what they mean by national treasure.

  91. j.... ....

    Great video great song. Continue Success Mr. Buckingham...

  92. t.... ....

    Whoa never heard this version. It's gayness is making me feel like I should be gay. And I don't want to.

  93. R.... B....

    1984 was a great year because of this album & the 49ers winning the Super Bowl ! !

  94. B.... b....

    Love the song ,and I finally found it 35 years later! Didnt know I was such a Buckingham fan!

  95. j.... ....

    And the 'Rumours' are flying. Nice Fleetwood Mac reference there. They were certainly flying off the shelves, the album sold in it millions and that aint just a Rumour

    j.... ....

    Good call. Never picked up on that.

  96. M.... L....

    Danced in the living room to this album at age 24. Where did all the years go ???

    M.... L....

    Great.
    And probably on a Saturday morning to this on band stand.

  97. d.... d....

    loooooove this man
