Walter Egan is a studio musician during a recording session with Fleetwood Mac met Stevie Nicks and instantly fell head over heels in love the love for her inspired him to write that song a top ten hit that sold over a million copies.

[@SharonSmerek]

He was infatuated with Stevie Nicks. He loved his wife, not her . Any man would get turned on as she is s flirt .

[@dianetorres5439]

I've always loved this song and now even more so knowing it was written about Stevie.

[@ronwink9573]

How can you not fall in love with this beautiful song

[@sl4983]

Or beautiful Stevie as he would have said!

[@michaelhuneke6950]

Nice to see Annie McLooon getting credit for her excelent backing vocals

[@joebuzz2758]

That is so awesome! He not only wrote it about a real person, it was Stevie Nick's! Then he recorded it with her! Awesome!

[@Pimp-Master]

Yeah maybe, but Lindsey was physically there!

[@rakesfunnyfarm]

Stevie & Lindsey was there to help him. She did vocal on another song. Walter fell for her and it came at a time Stevie & Lindsey were falling apart.

[@kureleksrevenge7935]

I could look at pictures of Stevie all day.

[@demonfox0958]

Amazing how some songs just persevere through the years. Until today I never knew the song was about Stevie Nicks and that she sung the backup vocals!

[@jefferyhartt1104]

I'm shocked too this is awesome

[@rockinrowdy13]

I had no idea Ms Nicks did back-up on this song. After watching this clip,it is hard to believe that Little Ms Stevie is 70 years young today! I watch Fleetwood Quack's 1997 "Dance tour" vid and at 50y.o. back then she was smokin' and today she is still one damn good lookin' woman.

[@esthergarcia1373]

Aww, great song by Walter Egan. I remember Stevie Nicks said once in a video that her father told her she would never get married because she loved “doing her music more”. So I guess she really is “a woman lost in her song” as the song Magnet and Steel mentions in that sense as well. I guess we’ve all been through those kind of crushes which inmortalizes this song to this day. ❤🌟🎼🎸

Summer of 78,Laurel md swimming pool, still with my magnet,47 years later,my heart n soul,love you Robin O'Dell

[@SmooveBee1]

Back to Annie McLoone! Stevie was the tease, but Annie was THE answer! Thank you Annie, so wonderful and looking so wonderful in your video footage (elsewhere), you got noticed!

[@keepitforreally4501]

I am 63 years old This song will be forever be linked to my first in everything he would dedicate this song to me before we actually started dating And we ended up getting married And I karaoke this all the time along with Toto hold the line

[@smowkdaddy]

I was 14 couple skated to this song and fell in love when this song came out! Awesome!

[@roseblake5803]

Stevie’s beauty was sure captured in these pictures. Beautiful song as well.

[@elizabetholive589]

Walter Egan and Stevie Nicks were adorable together. Darn, what could have been.

[@derekhaywood1844]

No doubt ; Stevie Nicks is the : ALL TIME BABE !!! She so beautiful and been crushing on her all my life. She’s something else. She today is more beautiful then ever. Let it be known , Dale Bozzio , Taylor Dane , my crushes forever going way back. I’m a old head lol. That’s when we had great music. Today’s is garbage.

[@rickycole6327]

Stevie 2022 just as beautiful as Stevie 1978.

Stevie stoled every young man hearts back then!

bro you are not lying!

[@dougrobinson2024]

Guys, this is a Walter Egan song, not a Stevie Nicks song. She just sang backup vocals. It's not "all about Stevie Nicks"--he was just lucky enough to get her to work on his song, back in the day.

I remember listening to the radio closely as in the mid song, they build up the harmony layers in the background--which by then was the foreground! Neil Diamond did the same in Cherry Cherry.

Think about this; Walter Egan and Stevie Nicks are both like, 71 YO one now.

[@kencummings953]

I think EVERYONE did a duet with Stevie. Don Henley, Tom Petty, Kenny Loggins, John Stewart, Walter Egan. Between that, Fleetwood Mac, and her solo work she was even more ubiquitous on the radio than Pnil Collins. Are we sure Phil and Stevie never had a duet?

[@pkm7518]

I know her and Robin Zander did a song "duet" together. Robin Zander from the band Cheao Trick.

[@teresagullett4441]

I saw a video of this song and Stevie is not a backup singer, but I'm guessing this song is about her...

[@patricksutton3992]

Lindsey buckingham played on this album and produced it back in the day stevie nicks and lindsey were living together for 5ys and they new walter egan and he had big crush on stevie he wrote this song about her but lindsey and stevie did not know until years later weirdest I ever heard.

This is the BEST Stevie fan video I have ever watched. You have so many pics I've never seen--and I've seen hundreds. Love this song! Glad to hear the story that goes with this. (btw the lyrics are "I can't hope to hold you for long," not "can." I figure it's a typo and you may want to change it).
