What is stevie nicks landslide about

I was discussing this song later in with a childhood friend of mine and how it spoke to both us. He was killed instantly 3 weeks later during a mishap while piloting his F A great guy. I played this song 2 days ago while dancing with my daughter at her wedding.

Tears were pouring freely as Landslide played thinking of the new life my daughter is beginning and the painful loss of my buddy long ago. Gone now, but never forgotten.

I just came across this tonight. About 2 weeks before your daughters wedding, was the last time I heard my grandmother sing Happy Birthday to me.

I was very close to her, took the loss hard. Landslide has been a favorite of mine since the first time I heard it in high school. Thank you Stevie for such a beautiful song!!!! Your commit was so sweet. Songs, music in general to me always can take us to what ever part of our lives was during that time, good or bad… But even the bad is always good with music of any kind. And so many, great memories!! Now they do a recording for sure. I just know it. It was on the news today.

I am disappointed as I heard somewhere that Stevie Nicks wrote this song for her dad and I have been loving it ever since. Without a doubt, Fleetwood Mac was one of the most influential groups for me in my music over the years. I never could figure that one out??

No matter, the genius of their music, in both arrangement, singing and playing still holds dear to me to this day. Thanks for all the wonderful sounds and memories Skip………. Heard this song in the movie Jack Frost which was shot in or near Aspen,Co.. Love the song she has a great voice. I thought it was written in California on a beach from an earlier article. Who was the guy who actually wrote the song part of it? She is credited with writing the music too, but Lindsay Buckingham brought it to life with his amazing playing, in my opinion.

I love Stevie Nicks and if you ever need a back up singer that can harmonize to you…call me! I have loved your music since I was in my teens…now much older. I have almost given up on my music more than once play guitar and sing but when I get depressed, I listen to landslide and it brings me back up!

So if you ever, ever, need a good back up singer…call me! I loved them then and still do. Loved the story about Landslide. I love all bands that are versatile.

And Fleetwood Mac is the ultimate! Stevie Nicks is awesome with her Mystical writing. I love listening to Landslide. I also enjoyed reading how the song got written. I similarely have many stories about what how most of my songs were written. Fleetwood Mac Was an important influence in the process of writing my music. It is on my Ipod Nano, which I plug into my Kenwood car stereo. I very rarely listen to the radio. I started writing and composing in Thanks for all the great music.

It was like we were rich overnight. It's about a father-daughter relationship. I realized then that everything could tumble, and when you're in Colorado, and you're surrounded by these incredible mountains, you think avalanche.

It meant the whole world could tumble around us and the landslide would bring you down. And a landslide in the snow is like, deadly. And when you're in that kind of a snow-covered, surrounding place, you don't just go out and yell, because the whole mountain could come down on you.

Landslide I wrote on the guitar, and it's another one that I wrote in about five minutes. Because once I put it down and I can read it back, and I can think about what I'm saying, then it makes sense to me. When I'm just thinking it in my head, it's going around and around, and I feel like a little child unable to make a real, substantial decision.

And we were talking about our lives Three months before I joined Fleetwood Mac, along with Rhiannon. And uh, that;s where the snow-covered hills come from. And I was definitely doing a whole lot of reflecting when I was up there. Lindsey was on the road with the Everly Brothers and I was very unhappy and very lonely. Chat in And a few years later, the Dixie Chicks took the song to the top 10 of the pop and country charts. Despite a couple long breaks, Nicks has been a prolific writer, having written or co-written nearly all of her solo material, and is respected in rock and pop circles for the way she hits it out of the park with her writing from the heart.

Numerous female artists, from Courtney Love to Florence Welch, have cited her as an inspiration and an influence. Are you a songwriter? Enter the American Songwriter Lyric Contest! For the latest songwriting tips, reviews, podcasts, and more.
