Ever since TikTok user “DoggFace” took over the internet with his cranberry juice-drinking, skateboarding video, Fleetwood Mac’s iconic song “Dreams” has made a huge comeback.
Nashville-based singer Lanie Gardner, an avid fan of the band, shows how she made her musical dreams come true through this song.
In October, Lanie uploaded a video on TikTok and YouTube, covering the band’s famous song, “Dreams.”
She drank cranberry juice to get rid of the nerves.
Following the now-iconic “DoggFace,” she took a gulp of cranberry juice as a starting ritual. She seems to be a natural on camera. No fancy setting or lights, just a girl on her bed ready to sing her favorite song.
She sounds so much like Stevie Nicks herself!
When she started singing, it was hard to believe that it was her actual voice. She sounded so much like Stevie Nicks. People even thought she was lip-syncing. She sang so flawlessly. Sometimes, you can even hear a bit of Miley Cyrus in her voice. Her tone matches the song so perfectly.
Fleetwood Mac is an 80s music icon.
A British-American rock band, Fleetwood Mac, became famous during the late 70’s with their self-titled album, “Rumors” which reached No. 1 in the United States.

Jeff Tee wrote, “The way she looks into the camera at certain moments is just so personal. It’s like she made this video just for me. You can also feel how much she loves the song, especially the lyrics, as she anticipates and feels every word right before she sings it.”
It’s true how closely connected she is to the song. It’s as if she is meant to sing it, and she made it her own.
Another user expressed his admiration for her talent by saying: “No fancy camera shots, no outrageous statement makeup, no million dollar edit. Just pure joy to watch someone sing with their entire being for the love of a song. 1 shot. 1 take. Mega talent. Thanks for giving this to the world. It’s alchemy for ageing.”
