Yep, here it is right from his Q and A on the Penguin:


You may or may not know that for a short time at the end of 1976 Stevie and I were, how you say....together, and the story of "Magnet & Steel" is somewhat contained therein. On the night that Stevie recorded the background vocals, or should I say wailing, for my song, "Tunnel of Love", I was moved. As I drove home in the dawning new day, I noticed a late model Lincoln Continental painted metallic purple with a diamond in the back window...you get the picture...classic pimp mobile. I glanced at the license plate and there were the words "Not Shy". For whatever reason this seemed like a sign, and when I got home I wrote "Magnet & Steel". So it was kinda life imitating art imitating life...writing a song about Stevie and then having her sing on it, and then of course it becoming the major cultural even that it has over the years.

Here is another one:

How did you're relationship begin with Stevie and how did Lindsey feel about that. Is Stevie really as mystical as she seems? What is the fondest memory you have of Stevie? Did Stevie know that "Magnet and Steel" was written about her? And do you think Stevie and Lindsey will ever get back together?


I was attracted to Stevie and I made the move. It went as far as it went, and I don't know how Lindsey feels about that. This was 23 years ago.
I'm not sure if Stevie is as "mystical" as she seems, but she certainly is mystifying. My fondest memory of her? Gosh, there are just so many, really. I guess I'd have to say just being able to hang around with her in the early days playing music and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and...

Yeah, Stevie knew that the song was about her, but she might have forgotten by now.

one more:


I have read many times that Stevie has a really good sense of humor. I was wondering if this was true and what made her so funny. Do you have a favorite Stevie song? How long did you two date? Who broke it off and was Stevie touched by the fact you wrote Magnet and Steel about her and do you remember her reaction when she found out it was about her. And finally what was the funniest or most special moment you had with Stevie? Thanks for putting up with my personal questions.

Dear Melissa,
I guess Stevie did have a good sense of humor in a general way, but in my dealing with her it was her sense of humanity more than humor that struck me. I'm not sure what made her so funny. My favorite song of hers of all time is "Silver Spring", the original version. In fact, when that came out as the flip side of "Go Your Own Way" on the 12" disc I made a tape with nothing but "Silver Spring" on it, so I could just listen to that.

I'm not sure if you could actually say Stevie and I "dated". We were close for about 3 weeks and I always felt like it was of her just allowing me to be with her than a date. I guess you'd have to say Stevie broke it off and she seemed very pleased when I told her that "M&S" was about her.

The most special moment I had with Stevie, I guess was doing the video for "Blonde in the new T-Bird".

I think he is one of her more attractive choices.
She has"dated" lots of men!!
I heard that she also dated John Stewart but I don't remember seeing any article about either one of them admitting it.

Some other info about the song---Tunnel of Love....
I read that Walter was so moved by Stevie's moaning on his song that he drove home and wrote "Magnet and Steel" about him and Stevie that night. They later had a three month affair together. The album, Fundamental Roll is packed with good songs and Stevie can easily be heard on six of them. It is by far in my opinion the best album that she guest appears on. If you can get it, by all means do so. "Tunnel of Love" won't disappoint! Bill

I have always been facinated with Walter Egan and Stevie.

That pic of Lindsey standing to the side ( looking very high) and just Walter and guilty tiny Stevie standing to the other side.

Lindsey had Carol Ann, so Stevie could do whatever she wanted...but I find it amusing that Lindsey was also playing on that album. I would love to know if he KNEW or if they kept it quiet. Stevie said she always kept her affairs away from Lindsey.

Tunnel of Love is awesome...everytime I mention it , no one seems to like it!

How about this one, in Destiny Rules:

Before I'd read the lyrics to That's Enough for Me, when Lindsey sings "Every night that sleep don't come, it's the same old pain it used to be" I thought he was singing "Every night you say 'Don't come', it's the same old way it used to be."
It still sounds like he's singing that when I hear it.

Don't feel bad. When I first heard Come, I thought he was saying "Why am I so horny?" instead of "Where's the harmony?"

Let's not forget "Hey Mr. Rock C*ck" from Wrong. I never thought that's what he was saying.
