Go Insane is the second solo studio album by American rock musician Lindsey Buckingham, then the lead guitarist and male lead vocalist of Fleetwood Mac. The album was released on July 30, 1984, by Elektra Records and Warner Music Group, while Fleetwood Mac was on a hiatus between albums. It peaked at No. 45 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart. Two promotional music videos were shot for the album. These include "Go Insane" and "Slow Dancing". Buckingham played all of the instruments on the album except for on "I Want You" and "Go Insane."
The album was dedicated to Buckingham's former girlfriend, Carol Ann Harris, with whom he had just ended a relationship.[2] Harris commented that "Some of it makes me angry...sad. A lot of it is upsetting. But I think there’s a lot of love there. It’s hard for me to listen to it."[3]
