 | Fleetwood Mac - Christine McVie - Songbird Live in studio From the Classic Albums Rumours doc. It's AWESOME, buy it here: http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Albums-Fleetwood-Mac-Rumours/dp/B0007GADZE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1218232199&sr=8-1Seldom can any song invoke the pure emotion that Songbird can. The call for lyric interpretations also invoked quite a varied response as to Songbird's origins and meaning. Songbird is most often believed to be about the members of the band, and how the turmoil they were going through was affecting her life. There were hard times between all of them, and the "songbirds" she sings about are all the members of the band. The song shows how much these people meant to her and how big a role they played in her life, and the need for the members of the band to get along with each other and keep on singing. Others believe Songbird to be about lovers and friends in general. She could have been listening to the birds chirping in the morning and she looked down at the man she was with and thought how wonderful it was and wonderful it was going to be -- and as she hears the birds singing they sing the feelings and confirm them--its about love and how great it is. It could also be a song made up of the kind of promises you pledge when lying in the arms of a lover, late in the night. But these promises seem sad, as though coming after a disagreement, with the songbirds as the only witnesses. They are the kind of promises that come thoughtlessly easy in love that is still new and shiny, but take a much deeper and more sacred meaning after the love has been tested in the fire. It's tarnished but in some way, stronger...like never before. It also openly affirms one lover's sense of responsibility for the power they now feel they have over the other's life. When you truly love someone you don't want them to ever feel a moment of pain...especially pain that you have caused, "but most of all I wish it from myself". This song gets it's tinge of sadness from the fact that, despite your best intentions, you never really have that much control over love at all. Also, there is a bittersweet tone in the line "and the songbirds keep singing, like they know the score." It just makes you realize that even though there is happiness in a relationship, there will be sadness too. And the lovers or friends don't know the "score", such as when the sadness or tough times will come, what the trying and unhappy situations will be, and what toll they will take on the relationship really are.. Maybe she was also remembering some tough times that they have already been through. "For you there'll be no more crying, for you the sun will be shining" could be her remembering comforting her lover during those times. The song may not relate to one specific relationship, but to ALL relationships. Most agree it is song of wishes, much like a lullaby that a mother would sing to her young child. She wants the child to have all kinds of opportunities that she never had, or didn't take advantage of. The mother knows the child will grow up someday, but with this lullaby the child will always know how much their mother loves them. Here, the songbirds are like the watchers and the prophets. It's also felt that Songbird acts as a counterpoint to the anger of some of the other Rumours songs such as 'Go Your Own Way'. It's nice and soothing to hear "It's alright, you know it's right," and " I love you like never before". She may have meant it to have that soothing effect, and maybe she knew that there would be tension on the record and that it needed a song like Songbird to be a relief from that tension. In Christine McVie's own words, Songbird is "about nobody and everybody...in retrospect, it's like an anthem...a little prayer of sorts." What words could more aptly describe this incredible song. http://www.fleetwoodmac.net/penguin/interpretations/s/songbird.htm |

 | Never Forget - Christine McVie - Tribute This is a song from the album Tusk (1979), however this one is slightly different.Enjoy!!!"Never Forget" is a song that fits right into Christine McVie's theme. She feels a love for a person, but feels pain in the love. She just needs the person to love her and "Never Forget" is another song where she is almost begging for it. Come on baby, could you ever beJust a little close to meOoh, ooh, ooh,Could we ever forget tonightChristine needs this love and is asking, "Why can't you love me like I love you? Why can't you get close to me?" Yet that night was special. Her man showed love for her in such a way that Christine knows they can never forget it. Come on baby, let's take a strollYou're feelin' warm so don't be coldOoh, ooh, oohWe'll never forget tonightChristine is pretty much saying that she KNOWS he loves her, so he should show her. She wants it to be just the two of them for a long time. They were able to have a great night and Christine wants the feeling shared on that night to last forever. What a wonderful night to beThe stars must be my friendsTo shine for meChristine is so happy that she and her man were able to spend this special night together. Everything worked out perfect that night, even the stars were shining, and Christine was so happy, it felt like the stars were shining just for them. She was convinced that the stars shown just to make the evening better. Come on baby, now don't you be coldJust remember that love is goldOoh, ooh, oohWe will never forget tonightAfter a special night, Christine is trying to convince her man to keep loving her the way he did. Love is a special thing and Christine wants him to share it with her. Yet, no matter what, the night is unforgettable. The song end with, "It'll be alright, we'll never forget tonight". This is Christine's way of saying, "Let's use the love we had tonight in the future". They will never forget the way they felt that night. Christine is convinced that the night will be the thing that was needed in their relationship."Never Forget" is a great song, as are all of Christine's songs. "Never Forget" is a song that puts love before feelings of lonliness and confusion. Just like the rest of Christine's songs, it makes the listener ask, "What would Christine have done if she had a perfect love life?"http://www.fleetwoodmac.net/penguin/interpretations/n/neverforget.htm |
