Does no one else find it interesting, that there has been, with every woman Lindsey Buckingham has ever been with, a very striking resemblance to Stevie Nicks?? Especially his wife??
Check out the photo of them shopping in Belgium during the Unleashed tour, if you doubt me...
And so I ask, just who is it then, that has never gotten over whom?

i have seen the similarities, the women that lindsay was first with after breaking up with stevie, caroline, she was blonde and pretty, his wife blonde and attractive, yes i do see the resemblence, i always thought that, it was just a younger version of the women he loved once - stevie nicks... unfortunately the best one got away!!!

my thoughts exactly,before I even read any comments. don't forget I think there was also Ann Heche. Remember the sound of her voice will haunt him.(silver springs)

Ugh, Anne Heche can't be compared to Stevie. Yeah but at least he went after attractive looking women. Stevie went downhill after LB. Sorry.

True. WHat photo of them in Belgium??!!

Hardly did Stevie go downhill after LB ... Especially these days - She has held up WAY BETTER than he has by far. I'd much rather look like her than him at this age!

Stevie went downhill in the boyfriend department after Lindsey, not in her looks

Doesn't surprise me that she'd resemble Stevie. What I can bet is that Stevie resembled a prior girlfriend (in highschool etc) too. We all tend to be attracted to the same types, over and over again and we set that attraction up very early in life.

No doubt he goes for Stevie clones! But I just think the drugs sex and Rock really took a toll on him. He looks terrible !! I can't see even a glimpse of that fantastic sexy man he was. Stevie looks great! I adore her! I love Lindsay too but what happened? He was so dam beautiful!

Ok peeps. Stop it with the Stevie and the other women in his life comparison. Lindsey is very married and with 3 kids. Kirsten is the woman he chose. Respect that ok.

Yes and I suspect he has mellowed. If you believe half of carol Ann Harris book he was not very nice to his women. Put her in the hospital in fact. I think Stevie knew it was unhealthy broke it off but still loved him. Now I am happy for him. Glad he has a beautiful wife and family. I am sure Stevie feels the same. She is one class act!

You can't really compare the way a man and woman in their 60's look. Lindsey doesn't have his hair dyed and tons of make-up on. When you see pictures of Stevie, you don't see her in her natural state as you're seeing Lindsey here. I'm not saying Stevie isn't still beautiful. I'm just saying it's apples and oranges. You just can't compare. Having said that tho, I do wish Lindsey would trim his hair or something. He's looking a bit like Art Garfunkel in these pictures.

Anonymous said...

I agree with small bits of what each of you said here. But what I will say, is that it's clea--WHEN LINDSEY SPEAKS ABOUT STEVIE--that he stills loves her. Clear as DAY.

Anonymous said...

Maybe that's just the kind of women he's attracted to... Stevie was his 'type' and all the others are his type too... Carol Ann Harris was blonde and attractive, but didn't look like Stevie

Anonymous said...

I think there is definitely a bond there between the both of them; how could there not be, they have known each other for forty years. I agree about Lindsey with the Art Garfunkel look but I still love him when he plays that guitar and sings.

The only thing I can say is..when you see them on THE DANCE video singing "Silver Springs"...you can sure see their LOVE FOR EACH OTHER IS STILL THERE. "you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you"...

i love stevie and they should be togeather, he never should have married somebody else, because i think he regrets it now,he still loves stevie you can see it in his eyes.

His son looks JUST like him! Lucky kid!

I think Stevie loves Lindsey more than the reverse.But it got to be a horribly volatile relationship - she has said he was scary when he got mad. He has mellowed since his marriage & kids due to Kristen, no doubt. I only hope that she can handle the past & current relationship between he and Stevie (especially since the Mac still tours). Personally - fanTAStic guitarist that he is - I don't care for him much, and really don't want to see Stevie & Linsey together again as a "couple". (I love Stevie, and still love the Mac, but she is MUCH better as a solo artist.)

I think that the entire "soul mate" theme for Stevie and Lindsey is overblown. The reality is that Lindsey loved Stevie Nicks, and she loved fame and famous people. She had trysts during fleetwood mac 1st album with Don Henley while stringing Lindsey along, then jumped into an affair with still married Mick Fleetwood while still stringing Lindsey along.

I have no doubt that the two of them have a very complex relationship, but it's not a mutual "if only..." situation. Working 24 by 7 with a woman that broke your heart on many occasions is NOT the easiest thing to do.

Lindsey was and is the genius behind the modern Fleetwood Mac, and Stevie was the face of the modern Fleetwood Mac.

Having lived through the early years of fleetwood mac and the music industry that once was, for all intents and purposes, a "boy's club", the person who had the greatest single vision of the future of rock and roll was clearly Lindsey Buckingham.

Not only is his guitar playing historically epic, but his album productions were groundbreaking and timeless. And it was he, and he alone, who insisted that he and Stevie were a package deal at a time when any other male artist of his time would have sent Stevie Nicks packing.

Nobody denies that when it came to the music, Lindsey was the visionary. That was why Stevie never let go of the man.

Stevie Nicks is certainly the most "popular" member of the Fleetwood Mac group. But the member with the most impact on the music is Lindsey.

Anonymous said...

I don't follow the previous posts about "Lindsey should be with Stevie" at all. This is not about entertaining us, it is about the happiness of one of the great rock musicians to ever pick a guitar, to produce an album, to colaborate.

The strength to do these things, to pour so much of himself into his works and the works of his fellow artists, has to come from somewhere.

Kristen is the source of that love, that strength. She has stood by Lindsey when no other woman would.

That's the romantic tale here.

I am sure that Lindsay still loves Stevie.His wife did know what she was doing.Don't underatand that after being with him for seven years she just got pregnant during 1997 tour when Lindsay and Stevie became very close again.Then she got another two children.VERY CLEVER.

No one knows for sure what's really gone on between these 2 in the past or even the present. However, from all the interviews these 2 have given over the years (and they have both been surprisingly candid) it was Lindsey that could NEVER let Stevie go. They have both said so.

Stevie is the other side of the musical coin for Lindsey. They both create music from different spectrum's (her from writing, him from music) and together they make a whole unit.

To me it's obvious that Lindsey waited 20 years for Stevie to come around and realize he was the man for her(It could have happened during THE DANCE TOUR), but then Kristen got pregnant and he lost his faith that they would one day be together, so he chose to stay with Kristen and his kids (read the lyrics to Stevie's song THROWN DOWN.)

I am sure he must love Kristen or he would never have married her, but I also think Lindsey never thought he would have another shot with Stevie in in this lifetime and that's what ultimately made him decide to marry Kristen (well that and she was going to have his 2nd child).

Watch this video of a 2011 interview with Extra - http://www.extratv.com/2011/09/06/lindsey-buckingham-on-stevie-nicks-and-seeds-we-sow/... Lindsey is so happy about re-connecting with Stevie he can't stop smiling. However, once the interviewer says that Stevie is happy and happy for him that he has a family he get's ticked..(he still wants Stevie to want him back..he wants her to pine for him like he's has in the past and is still pining for (I believe) even now) and the ending of the video where he says he's happy the way his life has turned out would be funny, if it were not so sad to see him so unhappy)

I mean have you watched the latest Fleetwood Mac's 2013 tour videos? (I really feel sorry for Lindsey, I know he can be an ass, but he's so sad right now it hurts) Now that he and Stevie have reconnected Lindsey is a mess (and by the way, I want to thank everyone who has been putting up the new concert videos on you tube, but could you please focus more on Lindsey than on Stevie, right now he's the fascinating one) The first 2 Fleetwood Mac shows he was crying through most of the songs in the show( I know he's an intense and emotional guy, but this time he's not just sad, he's really hurting). Stevie could not even look at him most of the time, because he was so upset and her singing has not been as passionate as it usually is because even she feels bad for him. Check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfvGdagNGXM at 4.58 (I could also direct you to several more videos to make my point, but this is too long already.

It appears he now realizes that Stevie really did love him all those years ago and his anger and jealous obsession with her,is what drove her away. He kept trying to act like a stud and make her realize she'd messed up when she dumped him and he tried to make her to want him again(read Lindsey last Men Health article, where he admits his accomplishments in the past were because of Stevie)so that(I believe) she would beg him to take her back, but sadly it was that same attitude that drove her away and made her not love him for awhile.

Truthfully, I would not be surprised if more tour dates are not added after October 2013 or if the 2 of them don't just go straight into making a new buckingham-nicks or Fleetwood Mac CD, so they can be together longer. Now that the flood gates are open with them, I don't know if these 2 can or will be able to close them.

Also I like his wife, she seems to be very nice and she deserves a metal for putting up with all this(if she stays). However, I know there's no way I would stick around if my husband was crying and writing love songs about his ex check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2Oey6u2oT0 at 4.56.

What a lot of tosh from Anonymous above. Lindsay has found his true love in Kristen. Yes he did indeen love Stevie but far too intensely and darkly for Stevie, hence, the breakup. Stevie would not go back to Lindsay if she was paid, she is very happy that Lindsay is now happy and that lets her lead her own life in her own way.

Hi,Just happened across this while looking at Lindsey/Stevie videos.I read the comments about the resemblence to Stevie and the women Lindsey dated...it's so funny to me that no-one has ever seemed to notice the resemblence between Lindsey and Don Henley @ the time Henley and Stevie dated.I mean really?? The big wild hair, the mustache/beard combo, the piercing eyes,the same strong jawline....talk about not really gettin over someone..just sayin.

What ever way you look at it Stevie and Lindsey's romance is most intriguing, fascinating romance. A s Stevie stated in her latest Australian interview is one of the greatest love stories of this century but they can not be together. They so totally love each other. They should spend the rest of their life time together. Their love is palpable it permeates the arena.

I think Lindsey looks great. As long as he is happy is all that matters.

Unknown said...

I still love Lindsey after all these years. He is still gorgeous and sexy to me as he was 40 years ago...NOTHING today compares to how he looked in his prime.....brad Pitt and johnny dept go home...artistically, still and always a genius...I love his playing....one of the most underrated because he was and is so beautiful to look at; now stevie is first and true love after his music, and vice versa; the wife thing was only to prove that he had chops because you know what they say about men who r beautiful......I like her but she doesn't do it for me.....when miss stevie grows up - she hasn't yet- she is going to realize that her soul mate has moved on albeit unhappily; there is a Destiny between them which I hope can find a way of working itself out without too much toil on Mrs b and the kids; Lindsey grew out of his childish rock star ways into a man...stevie is still living like a rock star alone....I love Lindsey and want to see him truly happy...and for me it's him and stevie

Preach on..

She doesnt look like Stevie at all...

Anonymous said...

Having read a few of Fleetwood Mac books and watched many interviews, I see things differently. I think Stevie genuinely loved Lindsey for who he was and think she still loves him. However, I think Lindsey used Stevie as he did Carol Ann for his own needs. He loved what they could do for him which included controlling them. He was abusive to both of them and I wonder about his present wife.
I wish Stevie and Lindsey made it as a couple...both hot looking and musical geniuses...would be great couple but Stevie could not take his torture. I highly respect Stevie not only for her amazing talent but for what she went through and stood her ground. Also want to add, someone mentioned Stevie with Mic....that was well after Lindsey hooked up with Carol.

Unknown said...

Agree!

Unknown said...

Agree!

Unknown said...

But they had 20 years before Kristen to get back together and it didn't happen.

Unknown said...

He was a gorgeous man when younger. Just some age better than others..Id still take him today!!! Hes still sexy in my eyes! ❤

Unknown said...

He did not "choose" her. He settled for her because she was pregnant! Im sure he loves her but there is only one great love in a persons life no matter what they say..and his was Stevie! If she had wanted to take him back she his wife would not have had a chance!

Unknown said...

Amen!

Unknown said...

Lol very true!

Unknown said...

Absolutely!!! I think he realizes how he treated her...but they still loved each other. Its when you love someone almost too much that you can push the wrong buttons anytime. And that is the person that scares you the most because you know how much they can break your heart!

Unknown said...

Amen

Unknown said...

Absolutely

Unknown said...

Yes..hes so handsome just like his dad!

Unknown said...

I totally agree but remember drugs and alcohol probably played a huge role in their tense relationship. They both made mistakes but i think they both love each other deeply but just cant be together in that way. Perhaps they are too much alike lol
