Say Goodbye - tears

[Tusky]

Hiya - lyrical content aside, do we know why Stevie cried at that specific gig during Say Goodbye? Did anything happen before the show to prompt her reaction?

[UnwindedDreams]

Either it was Lindsey's dedication of the song to her or she was sad knowing that the 11 year Lindsey and Stevie show was ending that night (actually it did January 8, 2014)

They are great actors that know how to get caught up in the facade. :)

Was Stevie hoping to ditch Lindsey after this gig, before Christine announced she was coming back? Would that timeline work? I wonder if that's why she was so emotional

I figured it had something to do with something Lindsey said. It’s as if she was blindsided by something sweet he said. It’s one of those ineffable Fleetwood Mac moments, I guess.

I saw Stevie with Fleetwood Mac once and she was intermittently quite visibly crying. It was quite odd because nobody could really figure it out. I think it was on the Santa Barbara campus — the makeup show they did on the Rumours tour. She’s an emotional lady and sometimes tightly strung. It’s what makes her the romantic songwriter she is. Thoughts?

Agreed, she was crying during the Mirage show. I've always (especially then) connected to the lyrics and the reasons she wrote them.

watch the intro Lindsey speaks before the song. All about them and all that's gone between them. He says something about how he just wanted to do this for her.

She gets emotional during that, but it's harder to see.... but he makes a comment about it saying something along the lines of "She's mad now because I'm making it harder for her to sing this song" then he doesn't know when to stop and says, "It's ok just do the best you can" to her.

If you watch the footage of right after the song you can see them embrace and have some short conversation. Then she goes to the mic and talks about how sometimes as performers 'we get emotional, as you just saw'. Then talks about how much they appreciate fans and see you on the next tour etc etc.

That's always a part of everything they do it seems.
