It’s a stretch to call prince a “collaborator” there So she “stole” a bit from little red corvette Stand back would be a great song without the synths ― rogermexico (rogermexico), Tuesday, July 5, 2005Īnd the one already in italics, apparently from somewhere else, re the Frank Kogan of Mac collectors, the beneath-the-hierarchy of fans, young women who wanted to talk about young woman things, and what in Stevie songs of and to such want, despite any degree in songs or fans of accepted sexism, and "there was a culture beyond that'-who wrote this, Alfred? Along with "Edge Of Seventeen" or "If Anyone Falls." Hell yeah to doing fat rails at some record producer's party up the canyon in Studio City, or maybe it was a real estate guy, and finding yourself alone on a balcony at four in the morning, the has-beens long retired to the bedrooms with the wannabes, and maybe a few stragglers sprawled on living room shag, too wasted or too desperate to know that for them the party ended weeks ago, with the Valley twinkling everywhere below, and knowing that love is only one fine star away. Hell yeah to Alfred Soto correctly observing that when you didn't plan to hear it just then, "Stand Back" is in fact the best song ever written. ![]() Hell yeah to Don Henley knowing that with Stevie to light his nights, somehow he'd get by.

Nicks started humming along to the melody, especially inspired by the lush synthesizers of the song, and "Stand Back" was born. The newlyweds were driving up to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara when Prince's song "Little Red Corvette" came on the radio. She wrote it on the day of her marriage to Kim Anderson on January 29, 1983. I didn't want to drown the post in details, but generally the point is that the track owed a lot to Prince: Depends how you define 'collaboration,' for Prince just played on "Stand Back."
