Nicks said of the release: “Most of these songs were written between 1969 and 1987. One was written in 1994 and one in 1995. I included them because they seemed to belong to this special group. Each song is a lifetime. Each song has a soul. Each song has a purpose. Each song is a love story… They represent my life behind the scenes, the secrets, the broken hearts, the broken hearted and the survivors. These songs are the memories - the 24 karat gold rings in the blue box. These songs are for you.”
Nicks recently confirmed that she was once pregnant with Don Henley's child. The Eagles singer has said in interviews that Fleetwood Mac song 'Sara' was dedicated "to the spirit of the aborted baby" they conceived together.
In am interview with Billboard, Nicks confirmed Henley's story. "Had I married Don and had that baby, and had she been a girl," she said, "I would have named her Sara. But there was another woman in my life named Sara, who shortly after that became Mick's wife, Sara Fleetwood."
"It's accurate," she added, referring to Henley's suggestion of the song's meaning, "but not the entirety of it." Nicks wrote the song in 1979, when it appeared on Tusk.
Meanwhile, Nicks recently revealed to Uncut Magazine: "Glastonbury? You never know. You have to weave festivals in. It's being discussed." The band are currently 4/1 favourites to headline the festival next summer.
