I've been thinking...

Here are some quotes from 1992 OOTC interview: Spoken and instrumental interludes serve as unexpected doorways to some of the songs, and in one of them, Buckingham hints at the emotional upheavals of the last decade:I`ve got to stop this obsession of revenge and fear -I`ve been running from everything that I once held dear-And it feels so cold; it feels like sin-I`ve got to stop this obsession and start living again.`I certainly don`t feel that way now, but there were times that I questioned my reasons for making the type of music I was,`` he says. ``There were things lingering for years having to do with relationships and the band, hurtful things, that were impossible to deal with until I left. If you were in a relationship and split up, then had to see that person every day for the next 15 years, it might keep you from dealing with some of those things.``While we made `Rumours` (in 1977) there were two couples breaking up in the band (Buckingham and Nicks, and John and Christine McVie), and we had to say, `This is an important thing we`re doing, so we`ve got to put this set of feelings on this side of the room and get on with it. “And when you do that long enough you forget that those feelings are even there.``On this album, I`m putting all these feelings in the healthiest possible perspective and that, looking at it broadly, is a lot of what the album is dealing with. It`s a catharsis, absolutely.”
