probably all very true... if there's anything we can learn from history.

I wish they'd just get on with it. Jeebus.

see i think the same as Nicks has changed - used to write melodies but now seems to either have writer's block or is just not interested for whatever other reason to work on melodies - that you can't say that the way LB used to work in the past is the same as he works now, as a producer, or in releasing new material.

not only has LB been working relatively fast (for him) in the last 5 or so years, but also has let other producers hold the reigns when it comes to his songs. and he and Christine were done with her 7 or so songs in less than 2 months, and he's been adamant they have about 8 songs practically done.

as far as him wanting to change or contribute to Nicks' songs (or "nitpicking" as you termed it), it's just my hunch he may have actually let go of a lot of that on her songs on SYW when compared to their earlier work together, and what ended up happening was that they both compromised for the sake of peace and nobody was really happy with the results.

that said, he might just be happy with anything from her right now, to just wrap that "last act album" and get it out. i mean he barely did anything on Without You, right? they just recorded it and put it out.
