Rehash of Stevie on Lindsey

[jbrownsjr]

I just find it funny that she thinks she writes songs. She writes lyrics with a melody and gives them to someone else. She co-wrote almost everything with Lindsey.

I even struggle with melody...Does cycling through the same 3 chords of a song at the same pace really count as a melody? She definitely dips her toe into how she wants certain things phrased, but full-on melody I sometimes doubt.

Buddy Holly knew how to take three chords and actually loop them into a hooky song with an actual structure of a verse, chorus, and bridge. She never progressed to that point. I think Lindsey could see it and made it happen on songs like Dreams.

I haven’t read all of this.
Just sort of skimmed.
But it’s not a new interview, is it?
Isn’t it old interviews culled and cobbled together…

So it tells nothing new,
there is nothing new to tell.
I just like her songs….I don’t care if she had help to produce them.
God, the Beatles had George Martin.

I may not like the person she has become, but I sure like her songs.
(And Lindsey’s and Christine’s)

You’re correct: it’s not a new single interview, but a cobbling together of old statements that have been mashed together for a puff piece. I have been reading a number of these lately, all relating to Stevie in Fleetwood Mac. My guess is that they’ve been released by the same person/persons and that the writer/writers are working in tandem with Nick’s publicity machine. She’s hard at work ensuring immediately accessible documents reflect her version of the band history.

Her version. Is her version of ANYTHING accurate? She's a LOON.

I think the coke abuse and klonopin really whacked her memory, short and long term.

Life is about choices. She's made some really bad ones. It's amazing that she went as far as she did, and even more so, survived it all.

How Stevie Nicks says "I don't want to hang up my rock 'n' roll shoes" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGEvFwG8FM8):

"I don’t want to not pull on those boots again."
