    My top 10 Fleetwood Mac songs would be from their earlier days, prior to the enormous commercial success of the band. They did achieve moderate success during the late 60's-early 70's in the UK and Stateside, but nowhere near the scale of Rumours etc, by the mid 70's and onward. I've always preferred the bands earlier material.:

    1) Watch Out
    2) Black Magic Woman
    3)One Sunny Day
    4) The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Prong Crown)
    5) Station Man
    6) Oh Well
    7) Rattlesnake Shake
    Fleetwood Mac
    9) Future Games
    10) Long Grey Mare

    Here's a few videos...

    Rattlesnake Shake:

    Perhaps if this was my top 50 list, then maybe a few Buckingham/Nicks era Fleetwood Mac tunes might sneak in there. I do like some of that stuff, but not on the same level as the Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwin, or even Bob Welch era for that matter. I thought I would limit my list to 10 songs by this excellent group, as you've indicated in your query.
    Fleetwood Mac had released around 14 albums in the 6 years as a band prior to Buckingham/Nicks joining the ranks. That era has a much better variety of music to chose from in my opinion. Despite what Billboard Magazine might tell us.
    Worth looking into, if you haven't already.
