Love songs about John

Didn't she say this right before her album release with LB? It could have been a ploy to create a tension or narrative that sparked interest. Either way, I ain't buying it. The song is wonderful as a plainspoken love song. The subtext she tried to create for it decades later is lame. But not in the league of saying Landslide was written for Katrina. Or Hillary's election.

That was my first reaction but apparently it was quoted from an interview in 2014 so that's a bit before Buckingham McVie.

It was BBC in 2013/2014 aired before it was public she was joining the band. It was a great interview with everyone but John.

She does talk about how enamored she was w/ Lindsey when she met him.

I believe her premise that it was loosely based around him. She's always been one to change words to make a song flow better rather than have lyrics to match the exact premise she started writing about. Her songs morph.

Thank you!

I’m still not buying the song is really inspred by Lindsey.
