The Chain: Stevie “Takes One for the Team”
So, Stevie Nicks is now saying that her contribution to “The Chain” was an example of her “taking one for the team.” She claims she gave up her beloved song so that Lindsey could feature his brilliant solo. Of course she says she’s “glad she did it”—so maybe that’s something.
https://ultimateclassicrock.com/stev...mac-the-chain/ Once again she is highlighting all she sacrificed for “her band.” We never hear Christine complain that her song “Keep Me There” was sacrificed for the sake of Lindsey’s vision. Instrumentally, the final version of “The Chain” is heavily dependent on the McVie’s original backing track, but whenever she speaks of the song she highlights the collaborative way in which the song came into being. I’m not minimizing Stevie’s contribution to the song, which is enormous, but I am tired of her doing these little PR-driven interviews where she positions herself as a martyr for the FM cause. It’s exhausting. Last edited by aleuzzi; 11-19-2020 at 12:08 AM.. |

What a big surprise. I thought for sure she was give up her amazing compositional skills without letting anyone know. I can't believe this!!

the description there matches Stevie's original description of her contribution from the late 70s/very early 80s (Tusk era) interviews. And is certainly consistent with the working versions of Butter Cookie/Keep Me There we've since seen released.

Stevie literally could have re written new lyrics to her beloved song. Which did become that song form pratical magic. Think of her originial melody and the pacing. Even I could write lyyrics to that and I'm no lyric writer. SHE.IS.THE.WORST....and continues to get worser as the days go by. UGH

Exactly. And while LB clearly reworked the music for the verses, he kept all of the original chord structure.

You mean Stevie didn't re-work her parts that she contributed to make this all work?

No, she just sacrificed and sacrificed and dragged her hair shirt along the Persian carpet.

It's a wonder Lindsey and Christine were able to get by without her.

My opinion of Stevie keeps going lower and lower whilst her ego gets bigger and bigger.

David,
I don't think your original post was deleted. I don't recall deleting a post regarding buttermilk and Stevie's bottom. But please don't fill up a thread with queries about why your post was deleted. That's not going to serve any purpose. |
