"Skies the Limit" is a single released in 1990 by British-American band Fleetwood Mac, from their album Behind the Mask. While the single did not chart on the US Billboard Hot 100, it did reach number 10 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart and number 40 on the Mainstream Rock chart. The moderate success of "Skies the Limit" and "Save Me" helped to push their parent album into the US and Canadian top 20, albeit only briefly.[1]
"Skies the Limit" was the only track from Behind the Mask included on The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac 2-CD Set in 2002.[2]
