Helping McVie write songs, Buckingham said to her, "is something you always wanted me to do for you, which was not necessarily the case with Stevie. She's a little more complicated in her needs."


That says a lot.....

I thought his choice of words was interesting… "do for you" rather than "do WITH you". I think it's revealing of his perspective.

Yes, in that sentence, but he says he had a track without singing on it and she wrote a song over it, indicating that he knows he had a track that wasn't really a song yet, until she made it something complete.

The bottom line, is that Stevie & Lindsey have too much baggage to co-write together now. Stevie, pretty much underscored that fact by re-visiting the thorn in her side that was the "Thrown Down" incident in her IYD documentary. Besides, they never attempted to ever co-write, not even when they were a happy go lucky couple in the early 70's

I don't think it Lindsey's statment towards Stevie says anything at all. I wouldn't read too much in to it, other than sour grapes.

Right and when Stevie talked about World Turning it didn't sound like the fact that they never co-wrote anything together was her choice. It didn't seem like something Lindsey even wanted to do with her in those days.

Since SYW, I think he has wanted to try to do that, but as she said, they are not Lennon and McCartney and it wouldn't work.
