- The drums have these tappinghi-hats that carry on without failthrough the entirety of the song.
- The track is fully polyphonic with always beingslightly full of sound and layers with multipleinstruments and vocals in the key parts of thesong.
Sonic Characteristics
- The hi-hats have a phaser on them to makea more "wooshy" sound
- This gives them a more hypnotic sound.Adding to the dream theme.
- Many of these instruments were pusheddown and made more bass so that the highfrequency hi-hats and vocals stood outamong the low tones.
- The other thing that sticks out is the whiningelectric guitar.
Lyrics
- The lyrics were written by Stevie Nicks
- After her break-up withbandmate Lindsy
- She had to perform this song with him
- Due to its success they had torelive their relationship endingon stage for the next 40 years
- Pre-chorus
- Layered Vocals
- Haunting
- Dream-like
- Stevie tells Lindsey to be free from her andstop blaming her for him being held back
"You say you want your freedom"
- Lindseys guitar weeps in the backgroundand he gets told to listen to the sound ofloneliness and what thats telling him
"Only right you should play the wayyou feel it"
- This line is in reference to the pounding kickdrum that continues through the songacting like a heartbeat carrying on and on.
"Like a heartbeat drives you mad"
- In this case that consistent heartbeat is just aconstant reminder of the love that he lost,driving him mad.
"What you had and what you lost and whatyou had and what you lost"
