how does someone get their song on a soundtrack anyway? Are they invited to send one in by the director/producer? I also, find it hard imagining that Lindsey would just toss in any old song without the words relating to the movie which makes me wonder, why on earth would he give a song, that everyone thinks could be about a relationship with Stevie (granted it could be,or not be, but if it's not to do with the movie) it seems like an odd choice of words.Guess we'll have to see where it fits in the film.

I'd be willing to bet that Cameron Crowe and Nancy Wilson solicited Lindsey to contribute and Lindsey wrote something to fit the movie. Cameron Crowe is known to be a big Mac fan, the "Bootleg Cut" DVD of Almost Famous even has the original article he wrote about the band on it as a special feature.

Isn't there a site out there where the songs are registered for copyright or something?? Can't we get a date as to when it was written? Johnny Stew is always looking up songs on the site and posting the date. Sorry, I don't know the site, and I'm too lazy to look.

Nancy, you still haven't changed the lyrics to NQA!!

I freaking LOVE it!!! The first time it was kinda like, "WTF? His voice..." but now I'm sooooo hooked. Man, that Lindsey. I think the music is exceptional, I love his singing on it now, and the whole thing is amazing. I'm so thrilled to have new Liddy music and love it so!

My local radio station is playing this song. Seems every time I turn on the radio I hear the DJ talking about this album and Lindsey Buckingham. The DJ called the song "strange." The station is really artsy fartsy and plays alot of unknown artists.

LOL you are right! It's pathetic how bad I've gotten about my site. Sadly they won't get changed any time soon because I've got a prospectus I need to produce ASAP!

welcome to the club, Nico! I fell in love with it IMMEDIATELY but now it turns into a

-like adoration. I have to be careful with big gestures, but I can say this one is going to rank among my alltime favorites. The impact of his singing and delivery of melody is so enormous and growing- everytime you hear it- it's mindblowing. And the most weird thing is: it doesn't sound commercial at all....but it is creeping in your head. Those vocallines are stunning, almost divine. No. Not almost.

I know! I found myself humming it several times over the past two days, especially the chorus.

Well, I have had time to digest this song. The verdict is that I really love it. I think that I like it, because it is different. I like the "wispy" singing, and the beautiful guitar work that seems to surround it. It is hard to put into words, but to me it is almost like a work of art---a painting to music. It is like the words are the brush, the guitar is the paint, and the melody is the canvas. I think it take more than one listen to really get it. That is why I have waited to throw in my two cents worth.

I cried.
I LOVE it, because it hits me like a truck. Because of the imperfection, the totally unreal but straight recorded vocals that creep under my skin immediately AND heaven sent melodylines, esp. in the vocals.

heroes are hard to find.

This is utterly amazing! god I love every ragged note! I understand that emotional, vulnerable Lindsey is hard for some to take, but I willingly invite him under my skin to feel the depth of the emotion he is conveying. Maybe that doesn't mean much, since I am one of the very few that LOVES what he did with HCTS in the tribute to George Harrison.

And didn't we learn that although the changes he made in Trying for the sun were slight, they were signifigant indeed. I'd be willing to bet the same holds true with the lyrics to this song....though the lyrics are nearly insignifigant to me. I think Lindsey is always working on more than one 'level' he creates a song. We all know he can belt out a tune loud and forcefully if he wants to....depending on the emotion he wants to express. I love that he is brave enough to be vulnerable with his vocals. This song literally pierces me with emotion...almost from the inside out. I.love.it.
