New Mac Song - Get Back On The Plane

Here are the lyrics from the new Stevie Nicks Fleetwood Mac song "Get Back On The Plane":

So with great courage
We
Get back on the plane
We strive to carry on
We break through the pain
The show must go on
We ~
Get back on the plane…

Back to Washington, D.C.
We are smiling
We are dealing with the pain
We’re not crying
The skies are beautiful, starry, and sad~
It seems they understand
They are glad we have come back
We get back –
On the plane…

With full hearts
We ~
Get back on the plane
We are being escorted out of Washington
By an F-16
Nothing is the same
Everything has changed
We~
Get back on the plane

In deep reflection
We~
Get back on the plane
Each night with determination
We consider it again
To NOT go on
Would be a shame…
So we-
Get back on the plane.

Those are from Stevie's 9/11 journal entries that are posted on the nicks fix. I just read an article, I forget where, but someone here posted a link to it where Stevie talks about the song Illume and in it she mentions that "Get back on the plane" was too depressing to put on the record, so we'll have to wait and see if it is or isn't.

When you guys mention that "Get Back On The Plane" is too depressing, are you referring to the lame lyrics or the sentiment behind them?

Where have you lot heard this song? I've never heard it, or heard of it in my life.

Get Back on the Plane is not a song anyone has heard yet, and if they have well...START SHARING!!! But as far as I know, there's no actual that we can get, just the lyrics. I do have to say I am glad it won't be on the album just BECAUSE of the lyrics. This is DEFINITELY not Stevie's best work at all, and Illume is much better.

I don't think this will be on the album. In the article Neil posted the other day, Stevie said something about writing these other 9/11-inspired songs, including We Get Back on the Plane, but she said they were "too depressing"...I assumed she meant "too depressing" to do for the album.

Both...Stevie can write better than this IMO..i think it is a nice reactionary piece to 9/11...but not something i would want to hear as a song...just my two cents...

Yes, these lyrics are from Nicksfix, however I disagree with all who feel these are not good lyrics. These would make for a great song with quite a bit of emotion and I feel it is necessary to have this song released on the new album in some sort of fasion. This would be one of Stevie's most treasured songs and would live on with time (no pun inteaded).

Maybe if they'd released a single of the song a YEAR ago, it might have had more impact. But, to release it a year & half later, the need for another 9/11 song is redundant...we already have McCartney's & Alan Jackson's. It would seem NOW like jumping on the bandwagon.
