Don’t stop thinkin’ about dreams comin’ true for a young pop star.

Ariana Grande is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend, and today we got a mini-preview of her with musical guest Stevie Nicks as the Fleetwood Mac legend joined the young hitmaker and SNL‘s Bowen Yang for a fun promo. Watch it below.

The second of two quick-hit clips sees Yang noting that this will be Grande’s second time hosting the late-night stalwart. Grande replies, “Well, you know what they say: Lightning strikes maybe once, maybe twice.” MacHeads know that lyric from the band’s 1982 hit “Gypsy,” and it didn’t sneak past Nicks. “You can’t trick me into singing,” she admonishes.

Yang tries to change the subject by asking Grande how her weekend was. “It was good,” she replies. “You know, I climbed a mountain and I turned around…” Yang jumped in with, “And I saw my reflection on the snow-covered hills…”

Cue anticipatory pause.

After a beat or three, Nick caves: “And the landslide brought me down,” she sings.

Cue wild celebration from Grande and Yang over “Landslide,” the double-platinum single from Mac’s 7 million-selling eponymous album.

Saturday Night Live airs at 8:30 p.m. PT/11:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. Live, of course.
