I didn't catch the fine print, but "The Fin" did.

WOW

Thank you, Betsy for the 411!!!! amazing that Kristen has such keen insight into Lindsey's feelings (about stevie)

I wasn't smart enough to catch it. I only posted the photo.
A guy by the name of "The Fin" read the fine print.
And I am soooo glad he reads English better than I do. :laugh:

Thanks Fin,
where ever you are...

(*wink*)

Hmmm, since Kristen is a photographer, could she please also spend time taking professional looking photos of her husband, rather than letting him have free rein with his camera? A nice coffee table LINDSEY book would be appreciated.

Now I wonder if Kristen contributed any vocals to the new tracks.

I am sorry I don't understand this comment. I haven't heard the whole single yet, but does it elude to being about Stevie?

Nope. I don't hear it. But there's a fine line with song "interps" amongst the LB/SN fans. I try not to even go there. ;)

I'm going to reserve comment on K co-writing...:rolleyes:

Betsy 08-04-2008 12:15 PM

The song didn't touch me -- and I couldn't quite put into words what it was that was foriegn...

Then it hit me. It was the "When you were my Baby" line.

Add now the knowledge that Kristen co-wrote it, the "baby" line/lyric makes sense.

The song reads (IMHO) as a "chick-flick" in lyric, and I guess I didn't see Lindsey writing "chick-flick lyrics."

I am not surprised Lindsey and Kristen are writing songs together...love can be a beautiful thing. :p

I can't argue with that...love is wonderful!

Quite true.

Harry Chapin's No. 1 song "Cat's in the Cradle" was a poem written by his wife, to tell him to stay home more. Instead of seeing it as a put-down, he put it to music.

This song could be as big.

When I heard this song I thought it was written about missing his kids while on tour and when he came back they had grown. "When you were my baby" is a nostalgic way of remembering when they were younger and what he missed out on. kids grow so fast! Nice that K wrote with him.

I think the song works as a love song, but I actually think you're probably right -- that this is about his children (like "Not Too Late").

This is exactly what I thought when I heard the song. About the kids with the "baby" line and about the wife with the "Look at us now..." bridge. Totally about his family. Lindsey reuses a lot of metaphors in his songs, but I think they have a common theme in terms of meaning (to him) but are in reference to a variety of different people/things given his inspiration.
