I aboriginal met Stevie Nicks in 2013, aback I was about to about-face seventeen. At the time, I was alteration Rookie, an online annual for boyhood girls, and I had afresh accustomed a TEDxTeen allocution critiquing a trend of apparently “strong” changeable characters in pop culture. I am abiding the video would abash me now, but I angle by its absolute line: “Just be Stevie Nicks.” A few months later, I heard from Nicks’s administration team. Her accessory had beatific her the video of my talk, and she capital to allure me to a Fleetwood Mac show. At the concert, in Chicago, I bawled alert to Nicks sing her adorable songs, and was abashed aback I heard the aforementioned articulation dedicating her achievement of “Landslide” to me. Backstage, Nicks gave me a gold moon-shaped necklace—a badge she grants to those she’s taken beneath her wing. We kept up a friendship, and, in 2017, I interviewed her for Rookie’s podcast. Afresh the show’s assembly aggregation shut bottomward midseason, and the chat never aired.
In the years since, Nicks’s address amid adolescent ancestors has alone grown. On TikTok, her songs accommodate a soundtrack to viral videos and admirers pay accolade to her witchy aesthetic. Artists such as Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus, and Lana Del Rey accept asked her to accommodate her articulation to their songs, and she’s become “fairy godmother” to a advanced amphitheater of adolescent artists. For listeners, too, she has consistently acted as a affectionate of airy guide. In her music, accident is accompanying all-important and ordinary. Affliction is survivable, and possibly a key to self-knowledge. Abounding of her songs booty abode at night, in dreams or visions, “somewhere out in the aback of your mind.” Her narrator frequently asks questions of herself and of some college power, as if in affiliated chat with her own intuition. Aback I said “Just be Stevie Nicks,” I was cerebration of how her assignment had accomplished me to see such acuteness as a antecedent of strength. Nicks’s music is what you accept to aback you charge advice alert to yourself.
Over two evenings aftermost month, Nicks and I bent up over the phone. She was at her home in Santa Monica, area she has spent the communicable befitting nocturnal hours and alive on a TV alternation based on the Welsh allegory of Rhiannon. Aback she apologized for allurement to allege at 10:30 P.M. E.T., I assured her that I was on a agnate schedule. “Good,” she said. “Then we are absolutely accompany of the night.” This account has been acclimatized from our abstruse aboriginal chat and our contempo ones.
I apprehend that you’ve kept a account every day aback the alpha of Fleetwood Mac. Do you anytime go aback and re-read old entries?
When I accumulate my journal, it’s big, like a blast book, because I consistently feel that that will never get lost. So what I do is I address on the appropriate ancillary of the page, and afresh on the left-hand ancillary I address poetry, which I usually booty appropriate out of my prose. So lots of times, aback I go aback to them, it’s to attending at the balladry for songs. I would rather absorb the time autograph a new account access than activity aback and account old account entries, because if you go aback you’re not activity to go forward. I aloof try to accumulate activity forward.
It sounds like the account entries and your songwriting are affectionate of accident alongside anniversary other.
They are. Abnormally if what I’m autograph about has a—when I say the chat “romantic,” I don’t necessarily beggarly adventurous as far as accepting a guy or somebody in your life. I beggarly aloof the advantageous canicule or, just, bethink the way that the air acquainted on your skin, or the way your beard acquainted aback the wind blew through it, or the way that the copse sounded, or that affectionate of thing. So, if my account access has a adventurous cast to it, I ability deride through it and go, “This access would accomplish a absolutely acceptable poem,” which could afresh be fabricated into a acceptable song.
I saw your appearance “24 Karat Gold,” and you told a lot of agent belief of area your songs came from.
Almost all of those were what I alarm “songs that went in the gothic block of absent songs.” For whatever reason, they didn’t go on records. It wasn’t because they weren’t acceptable enough. It was because I didn’t like the way they were recorded, or there were too abounding songs, and aback you’re putting twelve songs together, sometimes you accept to lose a song that you absolutely adulation aloof because you accept too abounding apathetic songs and you charge added fast songs. Aback you’re sequencing your record, it’s a allotment of work, it’s not about anniversary abstracted song.
A lot of these songs were in a attache that was accidentally awash at a flea bazaar afterwards I went on the alley in 1983. So the songs accept been travelling about the Internet now. A lot of bodies out in the admirers knew the songs, but afresh there’s the abutting two ancestors that apparently didn’t apperceive them. So I ample you aloof accept to acquaint them the adventure of anniversary one of those absolutely alien songs: what it was about, who was involved, and aback it was written, and anatomy a adventure about it.
How did the attache of cassettes acquisition its way aback to you?
Well, my best friend, [Robin], aback she died [of leukemia, in 1982], she was pregnant. I decided, in my absolutely batty accompaniment of mind, that I was aloof activity to ally her bedmate so that I could booty affliction of the child. And, well, that didn’t assignment actual well. So, for three months, accepting accessible to go on a big tour, I approved to be a mom, and it was impossible. And afresh out of nowhere, I aloof said, “You apperceive what? We charge to get a divorce.” I left, and he aloof absitively to apple-pie out the accomplished house, and there was a attache of cassettes—I don’t absolutely apperceive that he knew what was on all these cassettes. He had, like, a backyard sale, and I don’t anticipate that the bodies who bought it necessarily alike knew what was absolutely in it either. But somebody [eventually] ample out what it was, and afresh all of a abrupt all these demos were out there in the world. So some admirers who begin out about this bought them and beatific them aback to me. That’s how air-conditioned my admirers are. And afresh I took a lot of the abundant demos to Nashville and said I appetite to almanac these songs, but I appetite it absolutely as they are. And they did it. And that’s why I adulation that almanac so much, because the songs on there are absolutely abutting to how I wrote them.
I’ve admired some of the belief you’ve aggregate on amusing media about your songs. I was so admiring and afraid to apprentice that the “white active dove” you aboriginal apprehend about on a menu . . .
On the airplane.
It’s such an absurd antecedent of inspiration.
I know—coming from Phoenix to here. And who knew that the white-winged affable was this bird in Phoenix, or in Arizona, that fabricated its home in the saguaro cactus, because it was adequate in there? I didn’t absolutely apperceive annihilation about doves or pigeons or whatever you appetite to alarm them. But they absolutely said, “This bird, aback it makes a sound, sounds like it’s adage ‘Ooh, ooh, ooh,’ ” right? And afresh I instantly went into autograph that song, which afresh concluded up actuality about Tom Petty and John Lennon and a agglomeration of people.
But anticipate about this: the white-winged affable absolutely aggressive Prince to address “This is what it sounds like aback doves cry.”
I didn’t apperceive that. I anticipate best bodies would maybe anticipate that afflatus has to appear from about added admirable or something. So I adulation that you’ve got account from airheaded or alley signs. It aloof tells me to be open.
You aloof appetite to say to bodies absolutely that—just accessible up, so that if you do drive beneath that assurance that says Silver Spring . . . I had never apparent that assurance before, nor had I anytime heard of Silver Spring, Maryland, or wherever it is. And as my arch anesthetized beneath that assurance I aloof went, O.K., agenda Silver Spring. And I aloof anon went and wrote that song.
When a song of castigation has become a hit, does that change your accord to it?
Not really. I can sing “Dreams,” which was a huge hit, and I’ve been singing it anytime aback it came out. And I can aloof go appropriate aback to what pushed me adjoin autograph those words. And I consistently beam because Lindsey [Buckingham]’s “Go Your Own Way” and my “Dreams” are, like, adverse songs to anniversary other. I’m, like, “When the rain washes you clean, you’ll know,” and he’s, like, “Packing up, shacking up’s all you appetite to do.” Both songs affectionate of beggarly the aforementioned thing—it’s absolutely about our breakup. He’s attractive at it from a actual unpleasant, affronted way, and I’m saying, in my added airy-fairy way, we’re gonna be all right. We’ll get through this.
What’s it like to be taken aback to that moment aback you’re onstage, and your lives are altered now, and you’re altered people—or maybe it doesn’t feel that way?
Well, that’s area you appetite to be aback you sing that. You appetite to be in the story, because, already you’re not in the adventure anymore, that song goes. I mean, there’s assertive songs that can never go out of the set alike if you’re awfully annoyed of them. But there’s a acumen they fabricated it on those records. There’s a acumen why that one was chosen. I accept a absolutely acceptable anamnesis of all that. I can aloof put myself appropriate aback in our aboriginal apartment.
Do you accept arcane influences that accept aggressive your music?
You know, I go in and out of reading. Aback I accept a little bit of time to myself, my Zen time at night afterwards a show, I allotment a bowl of apples and I sit on my bed with as abounding admired appearance magazines as I can find. I’m aloof a fashion-magazine hag and I acclimated to aloof accept bags of breach sheets, but now that I accept my little iPhone I’m demography pictures. So my camera is abounding with what would’ve been my tear-out sheets. But it can be, like, four in the morning and I’ll be, like, “Let’s see, you accept to deathwatch up at eleven-thirty.” And afresh I affectionate of go, “Why would I appetite to be comatose appropriate now? This is the best time of my absolute day.”
Ugh, that is such a acceptable feeling.
It is. And it’s, like, it’s mine. And about annihilation abroad that I do in my activity is absolutely mine. It’s all shared, and there’s consistently two or three bodies around. And I accept Lily [Nicks’s dog] now. She has absolutely adored my life, because Sulamith [Nicks’s antecedent dog] was ailing for that aftermost year.
Sulamith was alleged for . . .
Sulamith Wülfing.
The illustrator. I anticipate you told me Mick Fleetwood got you a book—
In 1975. And she was an amazing artisan from Germany. And it’s funny because I accept a accouter of Sulamith tarot cards, and I about brought them today for some reason. And I anticipate they’ve been at the basal of my purse consistently and they’re old; I don’t alike apperceive if you can still get them. And I thought, Maybe I should booty these and appearance Tavi, and afresh I thought, Hmm, oh, no, if we get off on the Sulamith tarot cards afresh we won’t alike accomplishment the interview.
I told my acquaintance Ella—Lorde—that I was talking to you, and she had a catechism for you. She said, “Can you ask her how she backward in draft with her dreams? She seemed to never lose that absolute bandage to her dreams, if that makes sense. And, by dreams, I mean, that absolutely bouncing apple you go to at night and sometimes aback you’re awake. Not, like, ambitions.”
You know, the aftermost appearance that Fleetwood Mac did in New Zealand, I begin out that she had appear with her parents, and she didn’t acquaint me she was alike coming, so I didn’t get to accommodated her. I accept a moon for her, and it’s in a box with a little note, and I’ve never been able to get it to her.
I don’t anticipate Lorde is activity to accept any botheration at all befitting in draft with what she does. I anticipate she’s aloof as odd as you or me. She’s a aberrant girl, and so are we. And she’s a absolutely abundant biographer and she’s absolutely acceptable at accomplishing her own recorded stuff. I don’t anticipate that any absolute austere songwriter is anytime activity to accept a botheration blockage affiliated to the dream apple that allows us to address songs.
We appetite to accept our austere ancillary and all that, but you can’t booty yourself too seriously. Aback you accumulate music in your life, I anticipate it aloof changes you and pulls you out of a abysmal hole. Whenever I’m depressed, I aloof put music on. The additional I airing into my bathrobe room, I bung my iPod into my ancient stereo and I aloof crank the music. That’s aloof agriculture my anatomy so that I can get accessible to airing onstage in three hours. Aback I’m affairs up my atramentous tights and putting on my corset, I’m alert to, like, “Starboy.” I accept crazy agreeable taste. I accept my tapes that go aback to the aboriginal two-thousands—Nelly was my favorite. Because I comedy my music so loud, everybody at the shows—you know, all the aegis bodies and the bodies that assignment at the venues—they’re, like, “Who is she?” So, anyway. Aback to Lorde. She aloof has to accumulate accomplishing what she’s doing.
So you never anticipation you had to be, like, a bent artisan or acquaintance affliction to address songs?
No, but I don’t anticipate that you aces your adventures in heartbreak. “Gypsy” was about my acquaintance who died [Robin]. And that was the affliction year of my life, you know? But I wrote “Gypsy” about it, and about her. Little $.25 of her are in a lot of my songs.
So you can use the tragedy. “Always been a storm” [from the song “Storms”]—that I wrote about my best acquaintance who confused in with my boyfriend, Mick, and her bedmate had to alarm and acquaint me that. “Sarah confused in with Mick, I aloof capital you to apperceive that.” And I jetted out the aback aperture into the mountains and sat out there for three hours advertent my future, ’cause, well, I aloof absent my best acquaintance and I absent Mick, and I’m in a bandage with Mick, which agency I can’t aloof dump Mick.
The song, it says, “Every night that goes amid I feel a little beneath / As you boring go abroad from me / This is alone addition analysis / Every night you do not come, your benevolence fades abroad / Did I anytime absolutely affliction that much? / Is there annihilation larboard to say? / Every hour of abhorrence I spend, my anatomy tries to cry / Living through anniversary abandoned night, a baleful calm inside.” And afresh it says, you know, “Never accept I been a dejected calm sea / I accept consistently been a storm.” So that came from that. And you apperceive what? That’s account it. That’s account activity through. And then, aback you go aback to sing those songs, you reattach yourself to what happened. And it’s O.K. because it’s not forever. It’s aloof for that moment. So, every time I sing that, I’m sitting up there on that abundance attractive bottomward at Doheny Drive in L.A., aggravating to amount out how I was activity to accomplish it through this.
What accept you abstruse from your accord with Christine [McVie]?
First of all, to be in a bandage with addition babe who was this amazing musician—she affectionate of instantly became my best friend, alike admitting I already had Robin. Christine was a accomplished added ballgame. She admired blind out with the guys. She was aloof added adequate with men than I had anytime been. But she’s been arena in bands aback she was, like, thirteen and had, like, acclaimed bodies accustomed her books home for her. Sometimes opposites absolutely attract. She’d go, like, “You’re like such a changeable girl.” And I’d be, like, “Well, I assumption I am, but at the aforementioned time, I anticipate I’m appealing hardcore too, Christine.” We met in the middle, and we were actual accurate of anniversary other. We fabricated a pact, in the actual beginning, that we would never be advised with boldness by all the macho musicians in the community. And we absolutely ashore to it. I anticipate we did the pinky affirm affair that, if we anytime feel like we’re actuality advised like that, we would aloof get up and airing out—and we did. We would aloof say, “Well, this affair is over for us.”
I would say to her, “Together, we are a austere force of nature, and it will accord us the backbone to action the amnion that are advanced of us.” Because we knew anon that Fleetwood Mac was activity to be huge. It was the additional anniversary of our aboriginal little three-month tour. We knew, about like we could aloof attending into the clear ball. Christine’s mom was a medium—like, a analytic medium, right? And her mom had a lot to say about it, like, “It’s gonna be huge.” And, if it had aloof been me and John and Lindsey, it would accept been a lot harder, because the guys could do annihilation they wanted. They could go to the bar after. They could acquisition women. But not us, because we had a aegis bouncer continuing appropriate alfresco our room. So, unless we were activity to allurement them, we could not get out of the hallway. In a way, we were actual cloistered. It was bigger than actuality a allotment of that affair every night. And besides, we had to beddy-bye and we had to sing and we had to attending good. We didn’t absolutely accept time to aloof be affair animals.
How has your accord to acclaim afflicted aback that time?
People ability a point area they’re, like, “I aloof don’t appetite to do this anymore.” And it absolutely never occurred to me, because I absolutely still appetite to—I appetite to sing. But there are so abounding added aesthetic things that accord me a blessed accompaniment of apperception aback I charge it, that are in the approaching for me, that I absolutely am aflame about. So that’s absolutely what acclaim allows you. It allows you to move around, footfall by step—you go up adjoin the stars to wherever it is that you appetite to go. There were the drugs, and those were difficult times. But I survived it. And there were credibility aback I thought, Well, what if you don’t survive it? And afresh I’d go, like, “Oh, no, no, no, you’re activity to survive. Because you still accept lots of air-conditioned actuality larboard to do.”
People get agape bottomward because of their fame, and the Internet, and all the things that I hate. You accumulate yourself aloft that, hopefully. I consistently anticipate of Katy Perry and I accepting this continued allocution at the Corinthia Hotel, in London, once, and she said to me—this is apparently ten years ago—she said, “So, Stevie, who are your rivals?” And I said, “I don’t accept rivals.” And her big dejected eyes got bigger and bluer. And I said, “No, Katy, I don’t, and neither do you. You are Katy Perry, you’re who you are, you do what you do and you’re abundant at it. I’m Stevie Nicks, I do what I do and I’m abundant at it. We don’t accept rivals. That’s aloof ridiculous.” And she said, “Well, there’s, like, the Taylor Swift army and there’s, like, the Katy army and there’s like—” And I was, like, “That’s aloof bullshit. You accept to aloof airing abroad from that. Don’t backpack that about in your apperception because afresh they’re acceptable this game.”
You’ve talked about Prince’s assignment on your song “Stand Back,” and how it was aggressive by “Little Red Corvette.” Can you allocution about that?
I wrote “Stand Back” to “Little Red Corvette,” and I alleged him and I asked him to appear over. He came to the flat and he played on it, overdressed to the nines in amethyst velvet. I saw him abounding times afterwards that. We’d comedy Minneapolis, and he’d appear and aces me up afterwards my show. And we went to his amethyst abode one night and we wrote a song. It’s not a abundant song, but it’s fun because we wrote it.
But, you know, the eighties were appealing bad biologic years for me. And Prince was actual not into drugs. And the actuality that he concluded up actuality on a lot of affliction medication aloof assault my mind, because he was so adjoin it, and he gave me so abounding lectures about it. I’d allocution to him every already in a while on the phone, and we’d allocution for hours, and he’d go, “You gotta be careful, Stevie.” And I’d go, “I know, I know.”
When “Purple Rain” came out, I went to the première, and I watched up until the allotment area he slapped Apollonia [Kotero] beyond the face absolutely hard. That absolutely wasn’t the Prince that I knew, and that aloof air-conditioned me out. I got up and I absolved out and went into the absolutely admirable bath of the Chinese Theatre, and I aloof sat in there for the draft of the movie. Afterwards it was over, there was a big massive “Purple Rain” affair somewhere, and he said, “So what did you anticipate of the movie?” And I said, “Well, aback you slapped Apollonia it air-conditioned me out and I went and sat in the bathroom.” He was not happy. He said, “You left? If you had watched the end, the bang would’ve fabricated faculty to you. I was, like, angry for my activity during that part.” And then, over the abutting two years, I watched it and I accepted what he meant. You know, there was a acumen for it.
And now that he’s gone I’m absolutely aloof so sorry. My one affliction with him is that I did not alarm him up one day and say, “Listen, I’m aloof advancing in, I’m gonna fly in and appear over to Paisley Park and aloof adhere out with you for two days. Because I aloof would adulation to see you.” And that’s what I consistently acquaint people. Remember, every distinct day of your life, the bodies you adulation could be gone tomorrow. If anybody can booty abroad from what we’re talking about appropriate now, it’s the actuality that activity is actual fragile. You can’t calculation on anytime accepting a lot of time left.
Sometimes that acquaintance stifles me, though, because afresh what is the best way to absorb the time you have?
I think, Tavi, aback you are absolutely creative, I anticipate that blockage in a aesthetic abode is the best affair you can do if you accept any abasement activity on. I’m not bipolar, but I’m something. I alarm it the Nicks crazies. My dad and my two uncles and my grandfather, they all had it too. My brother. And aback I accept that the atomic is aback I’m absolutely complex in accomplishing stuff.
It’s, like, aloof remember. Time passes. Aback you’re absolutely in a hole, go allocution to somebody now. Because it’s aloof activity to get worse, you know. And do some fun things. Do commodity that absolutely makes you happy. Or go out and hire some abundant movies that you’ve consistently capital to see, like “Storks.” [Laughs.] It’s my admired movie. I’ve watched it six times and it’s aloof so great. Accept you apparent it?
No. [Laughs.]
It’s the sweetest movie. It’s about the storks activity out of business and they become, like, FedEx, and they alone bear packages. No added babies. And they accidentally advance the amiss button and one babyish comes through—there’s the little ablaze of the accomplished movie. The storks are her alone friends. You aloof accept to buy this cine and accept it on epitomize at all times. It’s a cartoon, but it’s a massive cine of activity and adulation and anguish and tragedy. That’s my acknowledgment to depression: “Storks.”
This goes aback a little bit to aback we were talking about songwriting and heartbreak. What was it like to go into the flat with bodies you were activity through that with, and singing what you had accounting about them?
Well, you aloof accept to get over that. You aloof accept to bandy yourself into your song. I mean, I bankrupt up with Lindsey in 1976. We’d alone been in Fleetwood Mac for a year and a half, and we were breaking up aback we abutting Fleetwood Mac. So we aloof put our accord affectionate of aback together, because I was acute abundant to apperceive that, if we had burst up the additional ages of actuality in Fleetwood Mac, it would accept absolute the accomplished thing. I aloof bided my time, and approved to accomplish aggregate as accessible as possible, approved to be as candied and as nice to Lindsey as I could be. He wasn’t happy, either. Afresh commodity happened that was, you know, “We’re done.” And he knew it. It was time. And the bandage was solid, by that time, so I could airing abroad alive that he was safe. And that the bandage was safe. And that we could assignment it out.
You know, because you’re allurement me about writing, I was cerebration today about Rookie. Because that absolutely is aback I met you.
Yes.
And it lives so able in my mind. I wrote bottomward addendum and I wrote down, “Rookie,” and afresh I wrote down, “resting allegation face.” And then, afterwards that, I wrote down, “I still use it.” But aloof cerebration [of the account from that article], of your allowance and your window, and that’s area you started this accomplished thing—and beneath that, I wrote, like, “Wow, mogul, publisher, authority builder.” So that’s area I anticipation you were activity to go, that you were activity to accept your own publishing aggregation and aloof absolutely draft the socks off, especially, all the men who anticipate they’re so great. I had no abstraction that you were absolutely activity to be such a austere actress.
It’s strange, yes. I’m absolutely blushing.
I anticipate it’s spectacular. How old are you now? [Jokingly] Forty?
Twenty-five.
Twenty-five?! I anticipate you’re a actual old soul. Maybe you’ve done this afore in addition life. Aback you’re my age, I won’t be here, but I’ll be watching, from up there, all the things that you accept done. You’re activity to end up accomplishing actuality that you accept no abstraction you’re activity to do. It’s altered than me. I knew I capital to be a singer.
When did you know?
I capital to alpha singing for absolute aback I was in the fourth grade. I had a grandfathering who was a country singer. And he larboard his wife, my grandmother—she was a allotment of work, I could accept why he larboard her—and went off and played shows all over the country, but accurate himself arena pool. He would appear and appointment us every already in a while, and he brought me bags of records. Bags of 45s. Everly Brothers. Lots of country music.
But then, aback Top Forty radio absolutely started to become R. & B., like the Supremes, and the Shirelles, and “my boyfriend’s back, and you’re gonna be in trouble”—well, I adulation that. So I fabricated a U-turn and absolved abroad from country in the fifth grade. We’d drive about in El Paso, Texas, and I would aloof be singing abroad to this R. & B., babe group, because they wrote all the hit songs. It was Motown, abounding on. And my mom and dad would about-face about and attending at me and go, “Who are you?” And that’s how I abstruse to sing.
I was fifteen and a bisected aback they bought me my guitar, from my guitar teacher. It was a Goya classical guitar, which I still have, and I apparently wrote a song in the aboriginal two canicule I had it. I was arrant through the accomplished thing—my accomplished close was wet, and the top of my guitar.
And afresh aback I confused to San Francisco, abounding years later, that was Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix and Chicago and Boz Scaggs and Buffalo Springfield and [David] Crosby and [Graham] Nash and James Taylor and Carole King—you could not aces a bigger time to accept your ancestors transferred to San Francisco. I accelerating from aerial academy in June, 1966, and that was it. That’s aback it all happened. The Beatles were already big, and I was never a big Beatles fan. Lindsey was a big fan, but I absolutely capital to sing dejection bedrock and roll, like Janis Joplin.
Then I got that alarm from the bagman saying, “You met Lindsey two years ago, and he remembers you, and he was apprehensive if you’d like to sing in our band.” And I said, “What affectionate of bandage is it?” cerebration it could be anything, and he said, “It’s a absolute adamantine rock-and-roll bandage and I said, “O.K., I can do that.” And that was it.
Were your parents supportive?
I anticipate they saw in my eyes that they were not activity to avert the singer-songwriting actuality in me. My mom was a banking wizard, but aback she affiliated my dad he aloof squashed her. It was like there was alone allowance for one ablaze in this family. Anyway, she said, “You are activity to be an absolute woman if it kills me. Wherever you go, whatever you do, whether you’re a rock-and-roll star, or whether you’re the admiral of a company, or a lawyer, or whatever it is you adjudge to do, you are activity to angle in the average of a allowance abounding of men and you are activity to be way advanced of them. They are never activity to attending bottomward on you as a woman.” So my mom was a austere feminist. She built-in that in me.
But I anticipate my mom and my dad both knew that we were activity to accomplish it. There are apparently a lot of absolutely ablaze aesthetic bodies out there who did not get that affectionate of abutment from their parents, so accordingly didn’t do it. And I abstruse a lot from my dad. My dad concluded up actuality the C.E.O. of Armour, Greyhound, and Dial. That’s meat, buses, and soap, but so abounding added things. I watched my dad backpack his aggregation all over to area we went—to Texas, to Utah, to Los Angeles, to San Francisco, to Chicago. I watched him be an amazing host, and I watched him apperceive everybody’s name. And I watched him be absolutely admiring to all the bodies that he formed with. And I abstruse that from him. And from my mom I aloof abstruse to never aback down. Or, if you were abetment down, to aback bottomward so cautiously that cipher absolutely accomplished that you were abetment down. She accomplished me how to action through activity afterwards bodies absolutely alive that I was so clever—so that I was aloof affective the chess pieces as I went. And cipher absolutely knew that, but I was.
I capital to ask about your claimed style. Area did your iconic attending appear from?
Well, I accept to accept a uniform, and I’ve consistently been that way. Aback we started, the midi breadth was absolutely in. It was the boots and midiskirts, so you looked absolutely continued and alpine alike if you were short. And so my skirts started out absolutely long, like, about to my ankles. And they went up and bottomward through the years. And I accept them all. So I accept the Stevie brim in any accessible length. I can remember, aback I was twenty-eight, twenty-nine, I had my abstraction of what my clothes were activity to be. I had met Margi Kent [Nicks’s designer], and I would say to her, “This accouterments is activity to . . . what’s the chat for it? It’s activity to angle the commodity of time . . .”
The analysis of time.
Yes, it’s activity to angle the analysis of time, because I’m activity to be able to abrasion this aback I’m sixty. Sometime I’ll plan a day and I’ll let you go through all my clothes, because it’s spectacular. Every apprehensible allotment from aggregate you’ve anytime seen, every photograph, is all in storages that are all temperature-controlled.
Online there is so abundant adulation for you and for your accomplished anatomy of work, and it spans generations.
I know. I don’t necessarily see it, but I apprehend about it. Like aback the TikTok “Dreams”-on-the-skateboard affair came up, that aloof absurd me up so much. I absolutely did anticipate that was amazing. Or the affair about how this one mother and dad, whenever their babyish is screaming, they put on “Dreams” and the babyish aloof stops. Just, like, lies aback and gets adequate and grooves forth to “Dreams,” and afresh aback it’s over babyish starts agreeable again. I adulation that, because that’s, like, O.K., so “Dreams” is two-ply—it’s a abate and it’s a air-conditioned song, right?
You allocution a lot about symbols and signs that accept reappeared throughout your life. They acquisition means into your music, and you’ve talked to me a little bit about signs that you get from bodies you’ve lost. Aback do you anticipate you started acquainted these occurrences and demography them seriously?
When my mom died, on the twenty-eighth of December, 2011, I started acquainted that I would be attractive for stuff, like a specific allotment of jewelry. I aloof looked and looked and looked and couldn’t acquisition it. And afresh I would say, like, “O.K., Mom, area is it?” And I affirm to god, I would about-face about and put my duke bottomward and there it would be appropriate beneath my fingers. And in my bigger house, area I accept my little recording studio, I accept this chandelier, it’s a clear ship, and afresh I accept this moon-and-stars apparatus that you can buy at any lamp store. And I point it up there and it makes the accomplished address reflect all over the ceiling, and it looks like it’s in a big ocean. And aback my mom aboriginal died, I’d get in bed and I would not be advantageous abundant attention, and afresh I would attending up and see this one little clear amphibian about up there, and at aboriginal I couldn’t absolutely amount out what it was, and afresh I accomplished it was aloof the way that the ablaze was hitting a assertive crystal, but afresh it became her ship, her sailing ship, her ancient array of the Absent Boys’ ship. And, to this day, whenever I go there and I about-face that on, I aloof feel her appear into that crystal, ancient sailing address and aloof let me apperceive that she’s still there.
And so this absolutely gave me a assertive religious affair that I never would accept had before. Sometimes aback I airing on stage, if I’m absolutely nervous, which isn’t often, I will say to Prince, “Prince, airing with me.” And he does. I accept he aloof aback is there with me. And I feel Tom [Petty]. [The night he died] I was up watching TV in my accommodation that has this appearance all the way to the pier, and afresh all the way aback to Point Dume. And, all of a sudden, I aloof looked over to the appropriate and I saw this little red dot way far abroad bottomward adjoin Malibu, and I went over to the window and I aloof stood there and I watched it appear all the way up and affectionate of apathetic down, aback it chock-full at the artery afore me. And I realized, afterwards Tom died, that that was Tom in that ambulance. Because afresh I went to the hospital the abutting morning, and that’s absolutely aback he larboard his abode in Malibu and went to the hospital.
Do you anticipate that afflatus comes from that aforementioned airy realm, aback you like commodity that you feel accountable to address down?
Yes, absolutely, I do. Because, for me, annihilation that gives me an idea, it strikes me in the acceptable allotment of my heart, right? I accept added notebooks that are aloof lying about on my bed, and I’ll aloof aces one of them to absolutely bound address that book down.

So it’s aloof a activity of an acquaintance that you had a long, continued time ago, and you bethink commodity about it that you hadn’t anticipation about in a continued time.
I’ll accord you an example: Somebody that I met appropriate aback the Crosby, Stills & Nash anthology came out [in 1969]. I had gone horseback benumbed in San Francisco, and I met this guy out there. And he was super, cool cute. And he was abrogation the abutting day for Spain. And I was, like, well, that’s absolutely a bummer. And he said, “Well, I’ll be aback in three months.” So it was actual romantic, aloof out benumbed horses, and aback he came aback he brought me a capote from Spain that absolutely was the arrangement for the continued applique ponchos that I abrasion on date today, and at the alpha of Fleetwood Mac.
Wow.
That accord affectionate of went on for a little while aback he got back. But it was a alarming experience, because it did account an effect, you know? That capote became one of the iconic things that I accept beat anytime since.
I was aloof absolutely autograph commodity about that the added day, in a note-keeping little book. I can bethink it that well, and accompany aback that absurd activity I had out there on the horses, benumbed about in San Francisco. So, for me, anything, really, can account that to appear out of nowhere. And sometimes I absolutely feel like that’s the spirit apple aloof borer me on the accept and reminding me of commodity that I hadn’t anticipation about in a absolutely continued time.
Do you anticipate there’s anything, specifically, that you do that makes you added accessible or acceptant to accepting these curtains on the shoulder?
No, I don’t, actually. Because I anticipate they appear out of nowhere, and I don’t anticipate that they’re preceded by much. So I don’t anticipate you’re necessarily anytime closed. Like, we’ve appear out of a two-year pandemic, but I accept written—I would adulation to comedy it for you at some point—what I anticipate is maybe one of the best songs I’ve anytime written. And that fabricated me absolutely feel like there is no age absolute on how acceptable of a biographer you can be. I apprehend all these earlier songwriters go, like, “I can’t address adulation songs anymore.” And I’m, like, “Well, that’s aloof stupid.” Because you accept memories for days. Go accessible your anamnesis library and analysis in there.
