i don'd begrudge you all looking at the world through a"chiffon filter" - whatever makes a person happy is all good with me . what i dislike to read is limitless lindsey bashing.

so, whose fault is it that there's no new FM music?!?!?! certainly not mick's. there are 2 songwriters currently in FM and one of them has been saying since unleashed that he wants to record new FM album.

and how is stevie creating NEW music? did you all read who wrote (almost exclusively!) new music on IYD? Dave Stewart (most of it), plus Mike Campbell, Neale Haywood... all music stevie wrote on that album is from like 20-30 years ago... other then SA:

No. Title Lyrics Music Length
1. "Secret Love" Stevie Nicks Stevie Nicks 3:15
2. "For What It's Worth" Stevie Nicks Michael Campbell 4:32
3. "In Your Dreams" Stevie Nicks Dave Stewart 3:58
4. "Wide Sargasso Sea" Stevie Nicks Dave Stewart 5:36

she wrote more new music for SYW than for IYD (didn't she work "like a maniac" on her 6 new songs? or 4, i don't remember).

Ummm she wrote EVERY song on the album which is actually the first time in her whole career shes done that. If your going to be critical, choose something real to be critical about. And I dont want to here one word about them being cowrites.

its true but its not something that a lot of weight should be put into. She wrote all the words and was in the same room as Dave was playing the music. She's not a musician. even when she "writes the music" it's gonna get changed eventually by the producers so whether it says S. Nicks or S. Nicks D. Stewart shouldn't really matter. Hell every Beatles song by either Paul Mcartney and John lennon is credited to Lennon/Mcartney despite how obvious the song was written by one or the other.

The point is She was heavily involved in creating ruffly 1w New songs (im including Moonlight for the added parts) with Secret Loveand Anabell Lee being her only fully old songs that were not used on other albums. Thats what elle was saying. That stevie didnt create anything new on IYD other then SA.
