Apparently Stevie ballooned up into a massive woman
with gigantic hips and buttocks.
I can't find a picture right now.
Also
the edge of 17?
That was due to an error in an accent -
she meant to say -
the age of 17. Stevie Nicks was stuck with the wrong words - LOL
https://genius.com/Stevie-nicks-edge-of-seventeen-lyricsThe song’s title came from a conversation Nicks had with Tom Petty’s wife, Jane Benyo.
She was telling me about Tom, about when she met him, and she has an incredible Southern accent … and she said that she met him at the age of seventeen, but I thought she said ‘edge,’ and she said ‘no … age’ and I said, ‘Jane, forget it, it’s got to be “edge.” The “Edge of Seventeen” is perfect. I’m gonna write a song, OK? And I’m gonna give you credit.’ She didn’t believe me, you know? She couldn’t believe it when it came out on the album.
