The music is great and stands on its own. I still appreciate it independently, but it would not have resonated with me so deeply and so long if I did not imagine there was underlying emotion that gave both the words and the chords pathos in my mind.
When the Dance dvd came out I replayed it so often. Lindsey back with the band. At his mic singing looking at Stevie. Away from his mic playing, looking at Chris behind her piano, musicians in synch. On tour, sometimes when Mick introduced Lindsey, Lindsey would glide out of the wings into Mick’s embrace. That sort of thing made The Chain more anthem than song, more creed than anthem. To me, I guess music just means more, muddled with imagined feelings.
