Well, MF was really only in the songs written before Tusk. I do not think she has written one about him after then other than in a general way when writing about her experiences in FM.

Also, she was very, very specific in interviews about BD and LB does have beautiful blue eyes and she knew she would one day work her way back to him, which she did at her own initiation in the Twisted project - she initiated that healing process

I guess I am one that thinks she and LB have had a continued romance, so it is not at all strange to me that his continued presence in her life and vice versa is a source for material. When I say continued romance, I am uncertain on what level it is continued and though the rumors abound, we can be sure by their own admission it is at least on stage and they have a freindship now, when they had neither for years. I mean anyone who saw them sing SG would be hard pressed to deny the palpable emotion to this day no matter its presence at every show and no matter how rote the actual display was Same thing for Silver Springs in 97. It broke my heart everytime I saw both. But, no matter that continued source of inspiration - clearly she has had other loves who are subjects of songs - Henley was in L&L (though it was written for WJ and JFC) and The Highwayman - I think Joe Walsh was for Long Way to Go (which she says he was), Two Kinds of Love, and many others.

Finally, Stevie writes about the tragedy she has experienced in songs like Street Angel.

so, not everything is about LB or MF, though many were. I just do not think it is that big of a deal that she likes to write about LB and he likes to write about her.
