“Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers. You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely. All you really have that really matters are feelings. That’s what music is to me.” -Janis Joplin
“Stevie Nicks tiene algo que el resto no puede jactarse de poseer: misticismo y una fuerza sobrenatural que se siente en cada espectáculo que da.”
La vida personal y artística de la cantante siempre ha estado ligada al mundo de las artes oscuras.
El Mito
“Se dice que en uno de los aquelarres más importantes de los años sesenta, hubo una bruja que cautivó con singular alegría al demonio.
La mujer, una delgada y rubia jovencita le pidió al rey de las tinieblas ser la bruja más famosa, sexy y polémica de la historia… él se lo concedió y así dio inicio la vida artística de Stevie Nicks.”
Nicks contribuía con sus looks negros y misteriosos a dicho mito.
Hubo una época en la que a la gente le asustaba su atuendo oscuro y es por eso que Stevie dejó de utilizarlo, pese a que pronto volvió a lucirlo.
En una entrevista comentó: "Gasté miles de dólares en hermosa ropa negra y tuve que dejar de usarla durante tiempo porque mucha gente se asustó. Eso es realmente injusto para mí. Yo pienso en la gente, pero la gente saca sus propias conclusiones acerca de lo que soy o en lo que creo".
A mí me apasionan los relatos de brujas y creo que una figura como Nicks es lo que más se asemeja a los cuentos o las películas que me gustaban de pequeño.
