Stevie Nicks Planned to Visit Christine McVie Before Her Death
The former Fleetwood Mac member pays tribute to her ex-bandmate while claiming that she didn’t know of her late friend’s declining health until recently.
AceShowbiz –Stevie Nicks remembers Christine McVie in a heartfelt tribute. The Fleetwood Mac star died peacefully in a hospital on Wednesday morning, November 30, aged 79, and Stevie has now said she had no idea about Christine’s poor health until the weekend.
“A few hours ago I was told that my best friend in the whole world since the first day of 1975, had passed away. I didn’t even know she was ill… until late Saturday night. I wanted to be in London; I wanted to get to London – but we were told to wait (sic),” Stevie, 74, said on Twitter.
Stevie explained that she was eager to sing for her bandmate one last time. She shared, “So, since Saturday, one song has been swirling around in my head, over and over and over. I thought I might possibly get to sing it to her, and so, I’m singing to her now. I always knew I would need these words one day.”
The Fleetwood Mac star then wrote the lyrics to “Hallelujah” by Haim, a song that centres on the death of a friend.
