The "Truth" Behind the Song

[glamorousnymph]

Beautiful Child I always thought was about Mick. But the line "You fell in love when I was only 10," though, does not make sense; Mick and Stevie are about the same age, and Mick didn't meet Jenny until he was 16. It maybe would make sense if she were sleeping with a married man who was older - and he and his wife fell in love when she was only 10. What is up with this line?

"Angel" I always thought was about Lindsey. There are a lot of instances in which they call each other "angel" in songs and of course she'd try not to "look up" when he walked in the room around the Rumours tour / Tusk recording era, if that's indeed when the song was written. Dreams passed them by... she's got the same wide eyes (that she had when they were young) and now they tell stories. etc. "When you were good, you were very, very good." (Didn't he say once they were great in bed together?) If she'd thrown in "blue eyes," there would be no doubt.

Very interesting about The Nightmare... I never knew Kim was like that.
