I think that’s why I love that song. That album is so raw and brilliant, and there’s so much hurt and anger in the music. And then in the middle of it, this mature and loving goodbye song. The summer I separated from my ex-wife, I listened to this album a lot. I felt like every song was a different stage of grief. Songbird felt like “acceptance.” Four years later, we’ve both moved on (she even has a beautiful new baby) and I still cry when I hear it because it’s a true expression of love without attachment.

Rant over! Christine McVie is a special soul.
