about this song
Stevie Nicks co-wrote “The Nightmare” with her brother Christopher. She has never publicly spoken about “The Nightmare,” but the song borrows lyrics from “Sara” and “Storms,” which are both connected to Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood. She and Mick had a brief, but romantic affair in 1978. The “nightmare” may possibly refer to the aftermath of their breakup.
