Q: How did you come to write the song "seven wonders"?

A: My friend Sandy wrote it, but when I got to New Orleans to do AHS, and got the script- in the script they talked about "The Witches Test" which was called The Seven Wonders. I called Ryan late at night and said , you know, Fleetwood Mac has a song called 'Seven Wonders,' and he hung up and said- OK! I have to go write it in! So the whole end was written as part of The Seven Wonders Test.

Kimberly McKinley Do you think a belief in the metaphysical has guided and given your blessed gift of music more purpose and meaning?


Stevie Nicks Absolutely!

Melinda Anna Farina Song that is most sentimental to you? Why?


Stevie Nicks Probably 'Landslide' because it was my dads favorite song. Whenever I sing it now, and he died , and I always dedicated it to him and I think of him

Daisy Buchanan Hi, my question for you is: In the song "Seven Wonders", you mention a girl named Emmaline. Does she have any connection to the spirit of your Sara?

PS... Thank you for opening up the world to magic through your stories. And for saving so many people through your songs. Love always


Stevie Nicks This is the ONE line I wrote in that song. My friend Sandy wrote the song and she didn't say Emmaline, but I thought she said that, and she hadn't... and I had become so attached to the name Emmaline, that we kept it in, and she gave me a small percentage

Ralph Storrier No questions. Just wanted to thank you for providing the sound track for my life, through good and bad times. I saw you with FM at MSG last month in New York City. So glad that Christine is back, a terrific show. I'm also thoroughly enjoying 24 Karat Gold, some of your best ever work!


Stevie Nicks That is music to my ears. Thank you for that!

Either she won't shut up, or one of u Ledgies is really faking us out answering on her behalf….but she seems to be still going after the deadline half an hour ago!

ok I gotta go do stuff that pays the bills, so hopefully someone else can keep checking to see if more answers are posted.

maybe they asked her a slew of questions and are typing up the answers after the fact I don't know.

but answers keep popping up with timestamps of "a few seconds ago" or "a minute ago" so who knows when they'll stop.

I have nothing better to do right now, so I can keep posting them in case anyone doesn't want to dig through all the questions for her answers.

Q: Who are the "He, She, and I" in "Starshine"?

A: It was written about somebody else, but it's about an affair

---

Q: Hi Stevie Do you have any regrets as far as not releasing a record you wanted to release but couldn't..

A: No, not a record. But, the removing of Silver Springs off the first record was devastating to me. I wasn't asked, I was told, with another song 'I don't Wanna Know." Silver Springs went onto the B side of Go Your Own Way. They printed it once, and the next time, Silver Springs was gone. I didn't speak to anybody in the band for about the month.

---

2 minutes ago (4:33 pm CST):

Q: Hi Stevie! Do you have one song on your 24 Karat Gold collection of songs that seems to either mean the most to you, or touches the depths of your soul when you perform it? What would that song be and how does that song touch you? PS.. That is a very sweet looking little fur baby you have. What is his/her name? Thanks for answering my questions Stevie.

A: We must remind you we haven't performed any of these songs yet, except for "Lady" on Jimmy Fallon. That was the first time that we performed that song. We only played it twice in the studio. No dubs, no anything. Just me and the piano. That was the first time since it was recorded in Nashville in April since that song had been sung. That pretty amazing for me, because that song really was the first song I ever wrote on piano. To stand up there and sing it, knowing it was going out to millions of people, was pretty heavy. That song was about when Lindsey and I first moved to LA and the premise of "what if this doesn't work out?"

The main post has been edited...

Thank you SO much everybody for joining us in our Q&A! I hope to do it again soon. I have loved listening to all of your comments and point of views, especially about my new record '24 Karat Gold- Songs from The Vault.' I hope that each time you listen to the songs, you hear more of the stories, because there are stories behind the stories, and that you will be able to pick up all the wisdom out of these songs. They really are full of advice if you listen carefully. There were many questions from women about how to live your lives, and the answers are in these songs!! xx

Dammit I was working and thus wasn't able to be on Facebook. I hope someone asks her someday what she sing in Seven Wonders after "The Rainbow Ends". Is it Aaron, ara, etc.?

Also, I want to hear if she would ever consider doing I Don't Want To Know live or if she is opposed to the song because of its role in the Silver Springs dilemma.

Someone asked about Tara/Aaron/Sara, but she didn't answer.
