My walls are flaming
 
So, when you first heard this eccentric "Smile at You" line, did you immediately think it to be sexual?

amber 01-01-2005 10:53 PM
No, I never did and still don't think it is sexual at all. It's emotional.

I just think it means she is f-ing pissed beyond belief. :shocked:

Maybe I am just nuts. My Mom and I have been listening to the angry version of "Smile at You" a lot in the last week, and every time Stevie sings that line, she starts giggling. Today she said, "I'm sorry, but there's no way that isn't about what I think it's about. It reminds me of that song, 'Sugar Walls.'" I forgot who sings that tune. But apparently there isn't any question about that one. Even if Stevie really does mean the "room's all on fire," then didn't it at least occur to her that people would take that line differently? I know I would have thought that if I were recording the song. :o

Well, that's a gimme. :eek: :] :xoxo:


Anywho....some think Sister Honey is in reference to a female body part, so "my walls are flaming" could also be along those lines. As Stevie would you, "whatever you want it to be."


SISTA! SISTA!

I think "Sister Honey" is about a female body part, but I don't buy into that idea that it's a lesbian song, really. As much as I would like for her to, I don't think Stevie would write a romantic or sexual ditty about a woman. Come on now, don't make me make another poll for the "Sister Honey" question! I bet most people would just say, "Who cares? The song is crap!" :laugh:

Nice little sig there, by the way. :D

When I hear the line "my walls are flaming" I can't help but think of a women's menstrual cycle :sorry:

I agree with that.

Even though I believe Stevie to have a total pervy sense of humor depending on who she's around (I truly do), I think she's enraged here and it has nothing to do with--well, you know. Although I will admit, whenever I'm listening to the song, I still have to laugh a bit and how can you not?

She is beyond pissed off with that line. :mad: Yeah, it could make you the think the other way, but the context of the song...nah.

I was waiting for you to say "La Nicks and her chiffon coated sexual references..." :p

I thought it was sexual the first time I heard it. :nod:

Give me a better sexual ref, and I'll judge the chiffon-coated worthiness. :nod:

It certainly makes one read John Stewart's dedication to Stevie on his 1979 album in a slightly different . . . er, light.

Stewart writes: "Special thanks to Stevie Nicks for the magic and the use of her wall."
