Keeping Secrets

[Ulpian]

All of this stuff Stevie is now saying about "keeping secrets" from her and the rest of the band have confirmed to me, 100%, that 'Fall from Grace' is about Christine. I know we once dissected the lyrics of that song over on the old official website, but it seems to fit now.

All of the stuff fits, for example: "I didn't ask when you shook your head / I always accepted what you said as the truth" ,combined with the 'Say You Love Me' reference, and the "You said you wouldn't do this for very long" / "I came all the way here just to watch you walk out that door".

So, I suppose, having seen Stevie's recent soundstage where she performs that song, and says it's one of the meanest she's ever written, I am betting she was not feeling a whole lot of love for Chris round about late 97... Not in the sense that she hated her, but that she was disappointed, betrayed perhaps, because her 'best girlfriend' had been keeping such important things from her, and then - rather suddenly - upped and left her life in the band forever.
