To begin, here are some of Stevie's thoughts about this song, found in her notes in Timespace--her greatest hits album from 1991:
"I got married on the day I wrote this song. We were driving to Santa Barbara and a new song by Prince came on, so we pulled over somewhere and got the tape. It just gave me an incredible idea, so I spent many hours that night writing a song about some kind of crazy argument, and it has become one of the most important of my songs. I've been doing this song for years, Fleetwood Mac does it also, and I never get tired of it. "Stand Back" has always been my favorite song onstage, because ...when it starts, it has an energy that comes from somewhere unknown... and it seems to have no timespace. I've never quite understood this sound...but I have NEVER questioned it.
I become a different person, and like that, because usually I make up my OWN characters..but that lady in "Stand Back" was not my idea. By the way, Prince did come into the studio the night I called him and told him about the song, and he played incredible synthesizer on it...and then he just walked out of my life, and I didn't see him for a long time. It was extraordinary..."
"No one looked as I walked by"
This could be about the wedding--as she walks down the aisle, no one would help her see or recognize what she was doing. Perhaps it means she felt very alone.
"Just an invitation would have been just fine
Said no to him again and again
First he took my heart...then he ran"
Again, it is said this could be as she was walking down the aisle--people didn't help her out. This might also possibly be a line about Fleetwood Mac, and how she felt excluded from them. She said no to him--his proposals---Fleetwood Mac ?? He took my heart and then he ran.--KIM ?? Lindsey ??
"No one knows how I feel
What I say unless you read between my lines
One man walked away from me
First he took my hand...take me home"
This is obviously about how no one can know her unless they dig deeper to find out what she is truly about. Her words are so obscure,like her songs; you can't know her unless you read the journals--or unless you get to know her. Men come and go--she just needs to find someone to love her. Again--is it Kim?? Lindsey?? No one knows for sure.
"Stand back...stand back
In the middle of my room
I didn't not hear from you
Is alright...Its alright
To be standing in a line
(Standing in a line)
I would cry..."
This may be about the wedding, or about regretting the wedding. Stand back and think about it--what did she do??? No one was there to help her see more clearly.
"Do not turn away my friend
Like a willow I can bend"
This may be a plea to either Kim of her friends to help her--don't desert her.
"No man calls my name
No man came
So I walk on down the line away from you
Maybe your attention was more
Than you could do
One man did not call
He asked me for my love
That was all"
It could be about Kim again. She regrets marrying him--she really does. These words are so obscure--it could be about any experience. This is supposed to be a conclusion after all the ideas are posted--but all the ideas were different from each other. According to Stevie--the writer--this song is about a 'fictional character who gets in this huge fight' and she says, "Get away--but not too far--I may need you soon". I think the wedding does play a huge part in her feelings though. She gets married to her best friend's widower on a whim to help raise their son--was it a promise she made to Robin?? Was it just a purely good deed?? It was not love. The marriage probably took place before she had a chance to really think about her reasons for doing it. Mick said in his book he saw her face and she was not happy--plus this was a religious man, and she wasn't religious--not as much as Kim's family would have liked. Lindsey didn't show up, although Mick and Chris did. (However, Chris has said she didn't buy her a wedding present, since "it didn't seem like crazy love to me.") But to write a song like this on the wedding day--obviously there was a little love. She needed to stand back and think--what in the hell did she do?? Why did Robin die?? Where are my friends--why didn't they stop me from doing this??? It is a great song--there is an energy, it perks you up--but it IS dark--one of her darkest. She says she sees the silver lining, but that silver lining must have been too hard to see then. The divorce was finalized in April 1984-- they had been married in January 1983....

I'm Here, and this was a fabulous experience!!! I was 5 and my father at the time worked crowd control at the capitol center. We are also family friends of Stevie Nicks. Hope this helps all of your curiosity...She is the BEST, and has never harmed me or any child. For those who feel the need to always be negative, take it somewhere else. Thanks, E
Thank you Elaine...no room for negative!
I always though you were the luckiest girl to get to do this with Stevie! Such a fun memory for you to have and so great that someone put it in here for you to see! :)
Awesome
Elaine Sachette This is wonderful!! How did you feel up there?! Were you thrilled, or nervous. You are one lucky person!
SO JEALOUS :) .. be well, nice experience
She can hold a child on her arms while singing to an audience and not losing pitch at all.
Hell of an artist
If anything she became more lively when the child was in her arms
Ummmmm, she alternated between being flat AND sharp continuously…and her vibrato keeps getting slower and slower.
@@rockit3422 you'd do It better?
@@errincon Of course not, but I’m not charging $500 for a concert ticket. 🤔🙄
@@ThatRocknRollFan04 Imagine if she hadn't murdered her own...
I can only imagine the memory Elaine has of this magical moment! Why couldn't that happen to me as a kid?
what a lucky little girl to have been on stage with the great stevie nicks
im a alcoholic with 10 years sober under my belt and i had some great times when i partied back in the day ,, but some music , like stevie nicks and a few others , when i listen to it i feel like im getting high and when the musics over i am still sober , its a strange feeling
I saw her that year ('83) while serving in the USAF. I've loved her since I was a boy... still do.
stevie seriously cried when she gave her back. how sad
I do not see any tears. She is mimicking sadness with her mouth (like a clown), but that is alright.
Little Elaine's head bopping to the song says it all. She is loving that special moment with Stevie!
Every live version no matter crappy is great! Strangely....that's rock n roll
Is it just me or does Stevie seem not-so-into the song until 4:24 when she sees Elaine? And then the entire energy in the room changes. Bless her. She would have been a superb mother.
Such a shame she never had a baby of her own
I Agree with You Completely!
who is elaine to stevie?
@@alexiamadouris8165 Her Goddaughter.
@@anonamos9102 Stevie is the mother of us all.
DAMN a 63 yr old Vet has strange water in his eyes !!! What a tale to tell
Such a travesty that so many people do not see the joy and love in that (at that time) little girl's face. I think it is wonderful memory she will never forget. My girls were probably about 8 and 9 when I took them a Daughtry concert and he came down and hugged both them and sang to them. My girls are in their 20s now but it is a memory that still brings them smiles and this very proud dad a very heartfelt memory. i started to take my girls to concerts when they were 5 and my oldest (25) has now been to over 300 concerts in her life and she probably has the best hearing of anyone. Yes, I used sound reducing ear plugs when they were little because i always wanted them right up front to not only hear but experience the music. Nothing effects the soul like music!
Why do you think that "so many people do not see the joy and love in that little girl's face"?
😂😂😂 Can I be Elaine?! 🙋👧 That was awesome! Luckiest lil girl! I think Stevie enjoyed being a Mommy? "Better to have loved & lost." Priceless.
Angel A. Lol! Elaine didn’t know how lucky she was😂
No she didn't. Her songs are her children stop your endless projections about her and children and being sad that she didn''t have any. She didn't WANT any.
Ella no queria ser madre pero si le gustaban los pequeños
"we"re training her early.." oh, Stevie.
It was so sad to see seeing Stevie giving the child back there was real tears make me cry two 😂🎤
There were no tears at all. She mimicked sadness, like a clown, and that is alright.
Stevie's amazing & gets better & better, all the time. She's completely evolved into someone at peace. After reading that incredible story, i now understand why i love this song so much;never knew why i did, much like Stevie didn't know. Yes, such an amazing energy to this incredible piece of her poetry. In less than 48 hrs, I'll have seen my 1st Stevie concert ever. I'm so excited I can't sleep. She just feeds my soul, gives me energy. She's one of a kind & am so glad she's my number 1.peace :)
My mom was 4 when this happened and loved Stevie when she was a little girl. I’m gonna show her this n hope it sparks some memories
This child centered Stevie at a time when a person needs to be very present, even when your heart might not be...❤️🌸
Love the big synth sound.
the beginning is just like a love bizarre , can hear prince his influence here.
He played synths on the studio recording, she asked him to, after she'd heard Little Red Corvette on the radio
Stand back came out before
@@errincon Not true: Little Red Corvette is from 1982 and Stand Back is from 1983
@@jurjenvanderhoek316 i was talking a LOVE bizarre
“We’ll train her early” STEVIE YESSS

Elaine just thought that's what happens EVERYTIME you go to a concert!
If stevie Nicks ever pitched up at my funeral, I will undead myself
STEVIE IS JUST AWESOME...MY FAVORITE ARTIST EVER...
Your one lucky lady to have that experience with the beautiful iconic Stevie nicks 🙏
so much power and passion in her voice. anyone can sound good while singing but to make you feel it is worth so much more...
Chris newton-john and all the men who have broke my heart ❤️💜
it melts my wild heart.....
"it's better to love and lost than never love at all"
She genuinely looked so sad when she had to give the little girl back and then when she said that and looked back it seemed like a genuine quiver of her lips too. Wonder what the next song was going to be since she said "oh no that song now?!"
I know right and the next song is th-cam.com/video/No0DtgmoJ0A/w-d-xo.html
Amber Ray Yes I saw that genuine quiver of her lips too! Seemed as though she was having a bit of a rough night. I’ve seen her get very emotional at times. Watch her in the White Wing Dove Tour you can look it up by that name. The last night of her first solo tour was a roller coaster. After reading about that night I found her to be so sad her short tour was ending. She kept thinking about how in a few days she had to return to the winter of discontent with Fleetwood Mac going back in studio to cut Mirage Lp. She was so torn up by the end of that concert she could barely finish Rhiannon. After graciously thanking her fans for coming she broke down. And her band mates all converged around her in a group hug. It took many hugs. She’s just so vulnerable sometimes. Of course Lindsey said he hated Belladonna. None of F/M came to see her show! I don’t think Fleetwood ever really knew how fucking lucky they were to have such a talent as their lead! People came for the music yes but came to SEE Stevie! I couldn’t have dealt with shit like that I’d have left their asses flat! She was so under appreciated it’s pathetic!
It’s genuinely heartbreaking to watch.
@@amberray117 Beauty and the beast. Very poignant.
Los más hermoso de los 80s Stevie nicks, hermosura pura
Stevie would have made a great Mother!
Based on how she sings?
She kinda is. I mean she took care of her friend Robin’s child... Of course I think she has great mother instincts or something
She can have me
I like her dance steps... it's unique.
The Crackhead dance?
@@conspiracytheorista8988 Crackheads do not gain a net worth of 120 million dollars or reach the age of 74 ...
Thank you Elaine ❤🎉😊
Yes, you are so right. No One But Stevie puts so much of Herself into Her Music !
She was and is such a natural! She lit right up!
When I was 17, I listened to
Fleetwood Mac Rumors Album, maybe a year younger too, and I would clean my house, their awesome....Thank-You to Great Performers, together and apart.
Stevie , Honey I Love You. And This Song. .... But seeing you so messed up on drugs. So Proud You Are Sober ✌❤👑
They sound great together, great song
They are great together, great song, never, ever tired of it......Stevie is fabulous!!
Wow!!! I remember that night I was at that concert at Capital Centre..thanks for posting! Rock on!
what a real woman, shit i love her ..never seen anybody like her, not even get close..
One of my favourite moments. This one is fun to watch, but Stevie looks so tired. I really feel for her.....And the Woman may be so awestruck, and the woman may truely care, but the woman is so tired.....
Elaine must be the most proud human being on earth now
She's the Queen 👑💕🙏🏾
God is Listening..Watching..still Dancing...thankyou Stevie Nicks .
absolutely touching, music is love..........thats all, i should say GOOD music is love
as always, that familiar haunting voice!!! love stevie nicks!! hailing from the bahamas
I totally agree...she was ontop of her game then...she still rocks out..I love her but she was awesome then.
I would love to twirl onstage with Stevie Nicks!
Aww bless this beautiful lady, I love her so much!
Beautiful!!!!!
Stevie Nicks would never harm any child, I am sure. I think she was showing the crowd how much she really loved children. She is a typical USA citizen-loves her country and family.
Lady Goffin I have loved Stevie Nicks my entire life. She certainly has a good heart. But she did have 3 or 4 abortions including Don Henley's baby, whom she named post mortem Sarah and went on to write a song to her. As much as I love her, she did hurt a few kids.
She could care less about children and all that cap about her looking sad because she had to give her back is crap. There are some of us who really don't care that much about being mothers or kids. I prefer something with four legs and FUR!
@@muffin6369 What a nonsense. What she did with that kid was wonderful and very sweet and loving. When she gave Elaine back, she just mimicked some sadness with her mouth (like a clown). Nothing wrong with that.
This is a great show. You can hear her so well and the guitar is perfect. I hope it’s the same one
I wish I was Elaine, Man, that was awesome..
Why not wish that you were Stevie? I mean, if you had a choice ...
Way to go Elaine and Stevie
You can see when she gives the kiddo back, she cries. And then "Oh no that song now" was because Beauty and the beast would have made her sob.
Shows that even great stars can be sad, and have to make great sacrifices.
I do not see any tears. She is mimicking sadness with her mouth (like a clown), but that is alright.
Stevie it was beautiful how you performed the video with elaineat your standback concert
.
It was very great
Everyone loves Stevie!!!
Wowie,! Loved it
Sweet. And love Elaine's. Story.
I just wish she had never stopped moving around and stopped putting so much emotion in her song.
I had this concert on a bootleg VHS years ago. It must have been a 4th generation copy as it was grainy, sound was muddled and colors washed out. But I loved it as it is "Wild Heart tour" footage! and played it a hundred times. But this here is a fantastic upload as it sounds fantastic and the video is now first rate. 😎. Merry Christmas 🎄☃️
Awwesomeness!!!!!
the opening is awesome!!!!!!
I see and hear one and half minutes of boring bongos. The real opening is courtesy of Prince!
I attended this concert! Thanks so much for sharing. It brings back some cool memories.
💥💥💥
And this is why I love her even more. 🇨🇦🕊
Excellent
How cool.
So nice to hear from you Elaine if you go see her please take me with you what a lucky lucky little girl you were awesome experience
so, thank u, flamingcrystal for posting. & thank u for that amazing story, of which i knew only a little.had no idea she'd married her best friend Robin's husband, after cancer took her away from Stevie & Robin's family. her poor husband & sweet little Elaine. story made me cry. she married him probably out of the 2 of them being completely grief stricken, and had that bond. just speculating, but i can see why she did it, at that stage in her life. she did it to help her best friend's family.
Are we looking at the Woman and her music or do we just want to talk about her offstage/private life? If you love the song and her so much, let her have her own feelings. Thank You, God Bless You 🐇 Stevie, my Mother would love her version of Silent Night. It was played at the recession of her funeral in early October. Thanks Mom, you too Dad…
AMEN👏👏🙌🙌
Every word each and every note sung is TRUE AND STEVIE NICKS TELLS NO LIE

OMG that is so cool Elaine. I was upset because I just read the bio and it said nothing about who you. Good song she picked to have you up there too. Lucky You
Perfect michael Miller special thanks to you
Stevie Nicks your the best in town
STEVIE NICKS
Fragile, agguerrita,
dolcezza scatenata,
velluto la tua voce,
graffiante, vibrata...
Petali di seta
veston le tue ali
mentre il palco riempi
della tua presenza
magnetica, sfuggente,
irraggiungibile...
Rhiannon, Bella Donna,
malgrado le intemperie,
il tempo non scalfisce,
sfiorando appena appena,
la tua bellezza chiara,
mia Gypsy, Lady, Sara...

Elaine is almost as big as Stevie! lol Stevie is what being Human Means!
U the best Matty
since i was a kid
I think the song talks both about Kim and Lindsay, more about Lindsay. Maybe she was very angry that he didn’t show up at the wedding-probably Lindsey had gotten really angry that after all their time together Stevie was going to marry a man she didn’t love. So in the song maybe she is picturing Lindsay showing up at the wedding, but she is hurt and fearful- that if Lindsay gets closer she will break down and will admit that the whole wedding is just a facade. She asks Lindsay to stay away, because he wasn’t there for her before and now he will only cause more trouble. I always listen to the song with that idea in ny mind. Stand back, I did not hear from you, If you had came, I would’ve cry and ran away
Elaine is now 41!!!
yes the saturday night live performance was the best we gota get that one on here!!!!!!!!! (to missygrl85)
You can't compare her good old let loose style with what she is today....she's controlling it so she has energy to endure a tour. I've toured it's gruling. Not to mention she actually "sings" and not voice overs or analyzers or prerecorded crap.
lucky girl
@MusicIsPower100 u're not the only one!!!!
Agreed!!!
THAT IS AFRICAN TRIBAL DANCE STEVIE NICKS IS DOING AT THE INTRO TO THIS SET 🤔 AND PRETTY DANG AUTHENTICALLY , BOTH RHYTHMICALLY AND MOVEMENT BASED. I DON’T WANT TO SOUND IGNORANT , but....HOW DID SHE NAIL THAT? YOU CAN’T FAKE THAT KIND OF RHYTHMIC INTEGRITY 🥁 €THAT IS ORGANIC OR IT JUST, LIKE “ISN’T” (TO PUT IT SIMPLY. )wow.☝️👩🙃😉
thats my girl....
Sadly Stevie would never get a chance to experience the joys of motherhood.
She probably did in an alternate universe.
Her choice. She did get pregnant multiple times and aborted those “joys of motherhood”.
Ahh..so with age comes wisdom.
and ¢$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Goddess
It was Beauty and the Beast, you can find it on here, and in the beginning she even says " Well as the fairy tale goes on"
Elaine is one of her friends kids... She was FRIENDs with the parent... And why in heaven's name would Stevie hurt a child?!
Nothing like handing your kid to a comedy out Rockstar lol no seriously though what a gem. Lucky girl elaine.
