Buckingham, of course, is the former Fleetwood Mac guitarist, who recently released his new album, Scream, and was in the news as part of a spat with Fleetwood Mac’s frontwoman, Stevie Nicks.

Watch the video for the “Darling” performance below.

For her other performance on the show, the Grammy-nominated Halsey performed her song “I Am Not A Woman, I’m A God.” On hand for the segment was French filmmaker, Michel Gondry, who assisted with the creative direction.

Both songs are from the artist’s most recent LP, If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power.
