I think if I met Lindsey and told him which of his songs I love, he’d be nice but probably bore me about the technical aspects of the song. If I met Stevie and said the same thing to her, she’d probably repeat the same story about how/why she wrote that song that she’s always shared. But if I met Christine and told her how much I loved certain songs, I envision her just staring at me and saying “so? It’s just a song.” Seriously lol. It’s one thing to be cool and aloof, or a little shy, but with Christine, I suspect she makes herself come across as unapproachable to fans. Maybe not to her friends and family, but certainly to fans.

Again, I’m going by impressions. Obviously I have no idea what any of them are like.
You are so wrong. On her 1984 solo tour, she gave out to radio stations backstage passes to meet her. Here is a photo of a free meet and greet 1984 style. She was under no obligation to meet any fans yet she did. I would also add the 1990 story I read on Ebay when someone was selling a cocktail napkin she signed. Someone noticed her eating at a restaurant and she signed a cocktail napkin for this fan. You also saw Christine signing Mac albums and even Nicks solo albums when it was announced she was coming back to the Mac. As the Brits say........RUBBISH

Here is Christine meeting her young fans on her 1984 solo tour
