DCist: It sounds like the “Christine” you’re referring to in “Christine Perfect” is Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac. Why do you consider yourself more of a Christine than a Stevie?

SO: There’s a couple of reasons but I feel like Christine McVie isn’t as popular to some people. I guess it’s all based on opinion. But for the most part I feel like Christine McVie is kind of like—it says in the song “second best” or whatever—I don’t feel that way about Fleetwood Mac. I feel like Christine McVie is my favorite. I can relate to her on that level where some of her songs aren’t as popular. Some of her songs aren’t as catchy for mainstream music as some of the other songs that either Lindsay or Stevie wrote but I lyrically relate to her and presence relate to her. Not to say that I view myself as second best but I think that I have a relationship with her more than I have a relationship with anyone else in Fleetwood Mac. At the time that I was writing that song it made sense that I could relate to her on that level.

Christine has more catchier songs than Stevie or Lindsey. She is just too perfect and not as interesting.
