Production & Legacy

  • The album was recorded between 1984 and 1985, with multiple producers due to creative tensions.

  • "Talk to Me" became the biggest hit, reaching #4 on the Billboard Hot 100.

  • The album was ranked #41 among the best-selling albums of 1986 in the United States.

  • "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You" was inspired by Nicks' relationship with Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh.

  • The album’s recording costs reportedly exceeded $1 million, according to Mick Fleetwood’s autobiography.

  • Rejected Songs: These Dreams (later recorded by Heart) and Don't Come Around Here No More (later recorded by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers) were originally written for this album but were turned down by Nicks.

This album marked a shift in Nicks' sound, blending synth-driven production with her signature poetic lyrics
