Storms - Notes


Storms - Notes


So we have Wolverine's POV for the dog tags scene from X-Men in Violet and Blue. Now we get inside Rogue’s head and…yes, I am twisted, I know. In this hundred, I see Rogue battling with the "Others" inside her head: David, Erik and, yes, Logan himself. But which line belongs to whom?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Nicks has always benefited from being produced by Buckingham. Magnificent in its simplicity, her haunting vocals surface from beneath the peaceful layers of John McVie’s gentle bass, Lindsey Buckingham’s tender guitar and Christine McVie’s soft keyboards. “Storms” is a masterpiece of raw emotion, filled with pain, passion and sadness.

"I'd keep "Storms" on a one-disk distillation of Tusk" said Mitch Cohen when he reviewed the double album Fleetwood Mac released in 1979 for Creem Magazine. More ambitious and experimental than their previous album, the wildly successful Rumours, Tusk featured five impeccable songs by Nicks: "Angel", "Beautiful Child", "Sara", "Sisters of the Moon" and this, her ode to a love affair that is slowly dying.

The lines in italics can be sung with the song as an alternate verse.
