It's a little bit of both, isn't it? :D

Really? I did not know that. I really enjoy his Bombs Away Dream Babies album from time to time.

[Raeven Skye]

I always thought "Witchy Woman" was about Stevie

[Richard B]

I always thought "Witchy Woman" was about Stevie
Raven hair?? Not Stevie at all.

[maygirl]

Read somewhere that Don said " Witchy Woman "wasn't written about Stevie...it sure fits her though.;)

[BombaySapphire3]

"Stevie' by Brian Wilson

[maygirl]

Does anybody have mp3 of Brian Wilson's " Stevie"?????? Would greatly appreciate it THANKS!!!!!!!!!:blob2: :xoxo: :]

[Karlie]

Can someone please post an mp3 of Sit On My Face Stevie Nicks? I don't think I've heard it before. I'd really appreciate it. :laugh: :wavey: :xoxo:

[vermicious knid]

In one of the interviews on The Penguin, one musician said that The Eagles' "Life in the Fast Lane" was about Lindsey and Stevie.

[Ghost_Tracker]

I always thought "Witchy Woman" was about Stevie

I don't think it can be because it's from 1973 or so, and Stevie didn't
join FM until late '74, or early '75. Unless maybe Don was "aware of"
Stevie based on her work with Fritz and B/N - except that I don't think
Stevie had really developed the whole Mystical Stage Persona Thingy yet.
WEIRD, though, i KNOW! :shrug:

[Ghost_Tracker]

Raven hair?? Not Stevie at all.

pssssst - it's called hair dye. Look in to it. :rolleyes: :lol:

[Ghost_Tracker]

Other than written by LB what artists wrote songs about Stevie??????:xoxo:

Just speculating of course but -

Don Henley:

All She Wants to Do is Dance.

Boys of Summer

Miss Ghost (she shoulda slapped 'im ... :shocked: )

Life in the Fast Lane (about L.B. too, of course).

I've always felt pretty sure that Hotel California is about Stevie's house,
too (and the rest...) It was uhmmm - a social gathering place for a
little while there! . . . . . :)

Nobody Else in the World But You

Desperado (!!!)

Tom Petty:

Insider

Runnin' Down a Dream (watch the video REAL carefully, and pretend that the king is a queen instead.)

Probably a BUNCH of other stuff too but no time right now.

[tommer]

All About Eve- Wild Hearted Woman. :cool:

I'm pretty sure that this song is about drugs... and the metaphorical "hotel" is the trap of drugs. Correct me if I'm wrong, please. :nod:

[Kelly]

Tom Petty ....Insider about SnL.



Witchy Woman is about Linda Rondstadt..
I honestly do not think Don wrote about Stevie much.

Wasted Time is defiantly about Stevie. Remember, the songs written for Hotel California were written in/around 1976.


Wasted Time


Well baby, there you stand
With your little head, down in your hand
Oh, my god, you can’t believe it’s happening
Again
Your baby’s gone, and you’re all alone
And it looks like the end.

And you’re back out on the street.
And you’re tryin’ to remember.
How will you start it over?
You don’t know what became.
You don’t care much for a stranger’s touch,
But you can’t hold your man.

You never thought you’d be alone this far
Down the line
And I know what’s been on your mind
You’re afraid it’s all been wasted time

The autumn leaves have got you thinking
About the first time that you fell
You didn’t love the boy too much, no, no
You just loved the boy to well, farewell
So you live from day to day, and you dream
About tomorrow, oh.
And the hours go by like minutes
And the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something to
Make them go away
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind from wondrin’ what
I left behind and from worrying ’bout this wasted time

Ooh, another love has come and gone
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on
I remember what you told me before you went out on your own:
’sometimes to keep it together, we got to leave it alone.’
So you can get on with your search, baby, and I can
Get on with mine
And maybe someday we will find , that it wasn’t really
Wasted time
Mm,hm
Oh hoo, ooh, ohh,
Ooh,ooh, mm

[Rhiannon2121]

Victim of Love - The Eagles



What kind of love have you got?
You should be home, but you’re not
A room full of noise and dangerous boys
Still makes you thirsty and hot
I heard about you and that man
There’s just one thing I don’t understand
You say he’s a liar and he put out
Your fire
How come you still got his gun in your hand?
Victim of love , I see a broken heart
You got your stories to tell
Victim of love, it’s such an easy part
And you know how to play it so well

Some people never come clean
I think you know what I mean
You’re walkin’ the wire, pain and desire
Looking for love in between

Tell me your secrets, I’ll tell you mine
This ain’t no time to be cool
And tell all your girlfriends,
You ’been around the world’ friends
That talk is for losers and fools

Victim of love, I see a broken heart
I could be wrong, but I’m no
Victim of love, we’re not so far apart
Show me, what kind of love have you got?

Victim of love, you’re just a victim of love
I could be wrong , but I’m not
Victim of love, now you’re a victim of love
What kind of love have you got?
What kind of love have you got?
What kind of love have you got?




I always found it very " telling " that Stevie showed up for Don Henleys " Storytellers"...because she knew she was the inspiration for some early songs.
IMO.

[Kelly]

I kinda thought she showed up for Henley's Storytellers because Stevie's, Sheryl Crows and Dons were filmed all the same week and they all went to each others. Don might have wrote about Stevie but not very often, IMHO. Frankly, I just do not think she was all that important to him..

[The Tower]

No it isn't. "Wasted Time" was written about Don's relationship with ... damn what is her name???

Anyway, Don was in a live-in relationship with a chick that didn't work out and it was a big deal. "Wasted Time" was all about that- from The Eagles biography To the Limit : The Untold Story of the Eagles.

[jkmaletic]

I'm pretty sure that this song is about drugs... and the metaphorical "hotel" is the trap of drugs. Correct me if I'm wrong, please. :nod:

I met Don a few years ago and asked him if Hotel California was written about (or at least the idea of it) a hotel in Needles, Ca. called Hotel California. He told me that Hotel California was a fictional name that the band came up with.

is that definently about her? because i thought he was married then, wasnt he??? im not sure how pleased his wife would be :shocked:

The Hold Steady are a fairly crappy band who wrote a song called "Stevie Nixx."

The lyrics are actually pretty good, but I think the band's sound is just god-awful. Like the Counting Crows trying to be Springsteen. And the Counting Crows themselves are bad enough when they try to be Springsteen.

Do you have the lyrics......Thanks

I can look them up...

"Stevie Nix"
by The Hold Steady

you came into the party with a long black shawl. and the guys from the front lawn were making jokes about the white swan. some nites we just need to get touched and rub right up against something plush. some nites it's just a crush and some nites it's bloodlust. she said we might use you later on. meet me back here right around dawn.

you came into the ER drinking gin from a jam jar. and the nurses making jokes about the ER being like an after bar. you know you're weak and effite and i'm coming up from the streets. you're up in yr loft getting soft and i'm coming up the stairs and i'm coming from the streets. she said i love the guys you cant trust. meet me back here about dusk.

i was half dead. then i got born again. i got lost in all the lights but it was ok in the end. and when we hit the twin cities i didn't know that much about it. i knew mary tyler moore and i knew profane existence. i was keyed up. keys jangled in the stalls. they counted money in the motels. they mostly sold it in the malls. and the carpet at the thunderbird has a burn for every cowboy that got fenced in.

she said you remind me of rod stewart when he was young. you've got passion, you think that you're sexy. and all the punks think that you're dumb. the guys around the lockers got a story about the stomach pump. and the guys behind the theater found a body in the garbage dump.

she got screwed up by religion. she got screwed by soccer players. she got high for the first time in the camps down by the banks of the mississippi river. lord to be seventeen forever. she got confused about the truth. she came to in a confession. she got high for the last time in the camps down by the banks of the river. lord to be 33 forever. she got screwed up by her vision. it was scary when she saw him. she didn't tell a single person about the camps on the banks of the mississippi river. lord to be seventeen forever. she got strung out the scene. she got scared when it got druggy. the way the whispers bit like fangs in the last hour of the parties. lord to be 33 forever.

They're not the best lyrics ever, but I think they're pretty cool. Unfortunately, I think the music blows.

hmm......some of thats a bit scary! & some is a little more information than i needed to know, but i like the dawny dusk bits!

Uhmm, how shall I phrase this? . . . . . :rolleyes:
Yes, it is! . . . .
And, i.m.o., I'm right, also. . . . :nod:

[DeeGeMe]

Sometime during the late 70's, early 80's, Henley was dating Lois Chiles, a Bond girl. I think they had a fairly serious relationship which broke up around the "Long Run" eara. Next up was Maren Jensen, who was with him during the beginning of his solo career--they were engaged at one point, and she was also an actress, Battlestar Gallatica I think. Anyway, she's no longer an actress and I believe she dropped out of the Hollywood scene and off the radar. Those were two important relationships in Henley's life. I honestly think that Don was more important to Stevie than Stevie was to Don. I don't get the idea that she was one of the great loves of his life, just one or the more notable names in his little black book.
