"Alice" for deffo. That song is totally about how Stevie was during those years

"like Alice through the looking glass, she used to know who she was...call out my name, but I get no answer"

How about "Whole Lotta Trouble"?

[nightbird28]

Here is my list off the top of my head.

Desert Angel
Soldiers Angel
New Orleans
Silver Girl
Illume
Jane
You Can't Fix This

To me every other song I can think of has something to do with love or relationships.

Gypsy- "she was just a wish"

Italian Summer- this song could easily be about a fling in Italy or a love are first sight moment.

Bella Donna- "you are in love with.. and I am ready to sail"

Rhiannon- all be it based on "Triad" it is still about love and relationship. "Wouldn't you love to love her"

Garbo- the song is about this guy in the song makes her feel like a moviestar. "I love to waltz with a man in a dark linen suit"

I read it was about her time with Jimmy Iovine, specifically after their "break up."

"That Made Me Stronger" ?

"Gypsy" is about wanting to go back to your innocence, back to sitting on the floor surrounded by your paper flowers, from a time when life was simpler, written in the wake of Fleetwood Mac's rise to fame.

Stevie told the story of the song on the unleashed tour. So it's not really about a relationship with other people.

LDW was about Lindsey ('natch)

She will leave you crying in the night -- about a man/woman relationship.
Whether real or fictional who knows.

Tell me I'm wrong
I can't believe you
We tried a thousand times before
Rained on reasons
Kept us believing
That there might still be more.. --- I vote this one is about a man/woman
relationship too

Whole Lotta Trouble is def about a love/sex relationship

In the morning light... he says, "When will I see you?"
She says, "I don't think tomorrow, baby"
Sometimes I wonder if things would change if we stayed together

Let's face it, man/woman relationships are Stevie's stock-in-trade. At least 95% of her songs are about that.

Many of those songs are about love on that list. "Italian Summer" is a very romantic song. Belladonna and many others are love songs to herself!!!

Italian Summer: Case closed.

You say hello
Put down that guitar and handed me a rose

At the end of the Italian Summer
It rains fast and it rains hard
The wind blows through you
It tears you apart
Ooh it's so romantic
Hey it's so soulful
The rain falls down
And the thunder rolls

I saw Julia, so if we include (currently) unreleased songs:

Christian/Mirrorball
Belle Fleur
The Dealer
One More Big Time Rock n Roll Star
Call On me For Magic
Joan of Arc
Mabel Normand!
Melacine
Night Gallery (love song for Rod Serling, possibly)
Kick It
Cecilia
Amber
Forest of the Black Roses

Fire Burning was about an actual fire. Her house caught on fire and true to form, she didn't know anything about it until the trucks showed up.

FOTBR is totally a love song.

And she asks herself
Just how much must I give away?
Anything… I love him that much

Well, if they're love songs to herself, I think we can say they aren't about a love relationship.
