'Today is the birthday of Stevie Nicks...'

Today's HOME-Spun Wisdom

RISMEDIA, May 26 – Today is the birthday of singer Stevie Nicks. Here are some of her notable quotes and facts about her life:

She is a singer/songwriter, whose first recording was released in 1973. She spent the better part of three decades as a member of the band Fleetwood Mac, and began a concurrent solo career in 1981.

"When I joined Fleetwood Mac, I didn't think I was a lead singer. I have a strange voice, a hard voice to get accepted ~ that's why I always considered myself a writer and not a singer. Only in the last couple of years have I begun to think I could sing."

" I'm inspired by life, I'm inspired by people. If I fix up a room with some nice candles and put some beautiful things around, I can usually sit down at the typewriter or with a journal and write. I think it's all about environment. You can change your environment and change your whole mood. If you're not happy, then you just have to pack a bag and go somewhere else. There's nothing like it to bring out the creative side of you. I just throw some stuff in a duffel bag and take off..."

"Sable on Blond is my serious statement on The Wild Heart. It fits into a particular group of my songs; Rhiannon, Beautiful Child and Sara. It reflects the mood I was in when I moved into my new house last year. It was a time when I was learning how to live with myself. Sable on Blond meant to learn how to be a stranger, to learn to be with yourself, to learn to be one color. In the legend of Excalibur, the sword is there for protection, but you don't call upon it unless it's absolutely necessary. During that period in my life, I was learning how not to call on the sword."

Wow. That is one intense statement. It makes me love the song even more.
