Undoing the Laces

[UndoingTheLaces]

Okay, I feel like the world's biggest schmuck. Sara is one of my all time favorite Fleetwood Mac/Stevie songs. I even took my nick here from it. And after years and years of listening to it did I finally understand what she is saying when she says "undoing the laces". I always pictured a man undoing the delicate laces of a ballet slipper, which I always found totally romantic. Of course it is also a metaphor of someone undoing the laces of your life, shaking things up, changing things. But it didn't hit me until the other day that it could also mean undoing the laces of a corset, or a blouse.

And I'm so loving that in the Soundstage performance she brought back "And the wind became crazy". That just thrilled me to no end.
