Yes I always knew Stevie wrote Stand Back inspired in a Prince song, the wedding day, the royalties story, etc. But now I'm reading it was a friend who wrote the song? Or am I misundestanding the paragraph at this article? She meant Sandy? Or again... does her memories blend and blur together like carrots and tomatoes in the blender?
In December of 1983, Nicks performed two tracks from her sophomore solo album: "Stand Back" and "Night Bird."
"You know, we practiced and practiced, and everything went well. At the time, I had my friend who wrote 'Stand Back,' and she was gonna do the second song, which was called 'Nightbird' — and she freaked out and had terrible stage fright, so she couldn't do it," Nicks says.
