“Crystal,” a folk-pop ballad Nicks penned in the early 1970s, has been recorded three different times, two of them with her then-beau/musical partner Lindsey Buckingham.
“John McVie wanted to put that on the Fleetwood Mac album,” Nicks revealed in a 1981 interview with The Source. “And I didn't really because it took the place of a new song. Since I write so much, it's I don't need to keep putting old songs that take places of new songs, which means those new songs are backlogged for the next and for the next and for the next. But he was insistent.”
Rolling Stone once called “Crystal” “the ultimate Stevie-Lindsay song”—and indeed, Nicks has said she wrote it when things were “good” in that relationship.
“Crystal” would reappear a third time, long after Nicks’ personal relationship with Buckingham ended. In 1998, Nicks took the lead on a new recording of “Crystal” for the soundtrack to the movie Practical Magic, marking the first time she was the main vocalist on the song. The song was featured prominently in the film, giving it new exposure, but still, no Billboard love.
“It’s funny, because ‘Crystal’ was recorded three times,” Nicks told Rolling Stonein 2024. “It was recorded for Buckingham Nicks and Fleetwood Mac, and then it was rerecorded for Practical Magic, with me and Sharon [Celani]. Maybe we should record it for a fourth time.”
