.:. The Buckingham Nicks Basement .:.
�Lindsey and I were really poor when we took that picture [Buckingham Nicks album cover], and I went out and spent my last $111 on a really beautiful, very sexy blouse. And they agreed to do half the session in the blouse, and I thought 'Oh, I'll win. They'll love this blouse, and they're gonna love the way I look.' Well halfway through the session, one of the photographers came over and said, 'Okay, it's time to take off the blouse,' and I died. It was awful, you know.... � - Stevie Nicks, Us Magazine, July 23 1990
This started out as a picture page - but then I realized I had a lot of quotes, and song lyrics, and things that can only apply to Stevie and Lindsey and their wonderful relationship, so I decided to make this into a little page of its own. Enjoy!

Quotes
"It was so personal we were scared. There's a part, for instance, where Lindsey and I are sitting at a piano, singing 'Angel' and looking at each other. There's a certain thing that goes on between us--it always has and probably always will. But it's there, on the tape! It's incredible--and kind of frightening. You can see all of what's gone on between us for the last ten years." � Stevie, US Magazine, 1980
"I write my songs, but Lindsey puts the magic in, and there's no way...well, I could pay him ten percent. I could walk up to him and thank him. If I were to play you a song the way I wrote it and gave it to them, and then play you the way it is on the album, you would see what Lindsey did." � Stevie, Rolling Stone 1980
��Because Lindsey and I just couldn't understand how we could sit down and sing a beautiful song to you and nobody liked it--and it was so pretty it made me cry. It was like, we don't belong here, nobody understands us." � Stevie Nicks, Creem, 1982
"There's something emotional that gets through, though," he says, "and her voice is so recognizable. I've been listening to Stevie sing for years and years, and when you're that close to it, it's easy to overlook certain aspects of anything." � Lindsey Buckingham, The Record, 1982
"When he and I split up in the very beginning, Lindsey was never quite able to understand what had happened to us, and that in itself had to make day-to-day living very difficult for him, and it did for me." � Stevie, The Music Paper, 1990
"I met Lindsey at the end of my senior year. We were at a party and Lindsey and I sang 'California Dreamin' together that night." � Stevie, Music Connection, 1994
"It was the guilt that drove us together," Nicks says with a laugh. "That's why Lindsey and I started going out. We just felt so bad because everyone in Los Angeles was trying to kill our band.� � Stevie, Music Connection, 1994
"He and I are almost best friends and we have been for a long time. We had very sweet conversations and some sweet moments that were very cute.� � Stevie, El Mercurio, 1999
"I couldn't continue to be in a Fleetwood Mac that didn't have Lindsey in it." �Stevie, Philadelphia Inquirer, 1997
"We tangle a lot, but we love each other - we'll always love each other. He and I will never get away from the fact that we were as one for so many years." - Stevie, Mademoiselle, 1982
"Maybe when Lindsey and I are 60 years old, we'll look around and say, 'You know what, there just isn't anybody better around. Maybe we'll just get married or something.' But, Lindsey and I are becoming really good friends again. �It's really nice. I don't think we were all that good of friends before." - Stevie, New York Post, 1997
"You know, when Lindsey and I go back and forth on the songs that were written between the two of us, for that moment, we are back in love again." � Stevie, BAM Magazine, 1997
"We got a call maybe two weeks before the event," says Lindsey Buckingham. "I said to Stevie, 'Do you think we can pull this off? We need to rehearse, right?'� � Lindsey, rollingstone.com article (about President Clinton�s farewell party at the White House on January 6, 2001) now you�re probably wondering why I put this in here � well it shows that they�re still talking to each other! *lol* it wasn�t a stretch�
"When I went to Australia with Bob Dylan and Tom Petty, I asked Bob Dylan if he'd written 'Blue Eyes.' He said 'no, I didn't write it, but I know who wrote it: Ian and Sylvia.' So I of course believed Bob and Bob of course believed in what he was saying and now I've been told in the last two weeks that in fact Johnny Cash and somebody wrote it. So I don't know, I can't actually sit here and tell you who wrote this song but the reason that I did it was because I've been singing it since I was about 16 or 17 years old and I'm not sure if the words are exactly right, there are maybe more verses, there may have been a different kind of bridge, I don't know because this is just what has lived on in my heart since I was really a girl. So all I know was that I loved it and I never forgot those words because of Lindsey and his beautiful, beautiful blue eyes." � Stevie, 1989
"It's about Lindsey wanting more from me in our relationship." � Stevie (about the song �Gold and Braid�), 1981
Lyrics
these are some song lyrics (I know, I know - its not like you all haven't heard the songs before *g*) of Stevie and Lindsey's that I think kind of well, go together, its kind of like they're talking back and forth - maybe I'm imagining things...*lol*
Just how deep -- do you hold that dream
In your hands each night...
This time
(SN-Sable on Blond)
I keep the dream in my pocket...
Never let it fade away
(LB-Tango in the Night)
I'll be there when I'm not there
And I'll be gone when you think I'm with you
(SN-Love and War)
And once again she calls to me
Then she vanishes in thin air
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she's not there.
(LB-Bleed to Love Her)
Because I never did not love you
I never did run from you
In a dream I said to you
That I'd always love you...
(SN-Gold and Braid)
No loneliness in this dream...
(LB-Tango in the Night)
