Stevie Nicks' Affection for 'Daisy Jones and the Six': A Reflection

Stevie Nicks has praised the Prime Video series "Daisy Jones and the Six," calling it emotional and reminiscent of her own story.

Stevie Nicks, the Queen of Rock and Roll, recently expressed her deep admiration for the Prime Video series "Daisy Jones and the Six." In an emotional Instagram post, Nicks revealed that watching the show brought back memories that made her feel like a ghost observing her own story. The series, based on Taylor Jenkins Reid's bestselling novel, mirrors the rise and fall of the eponymous band, which bears striking similarities to Nicks' own experiences with Fleetwood Mac.

Nicks' connection to the show is evident as she praised the seamless way in which the story became her own. The parallel between the fictional band and Fleetwood Mac is no coincidence, as Reid was inspired to write the book after witnessing Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham's iconic live performance of "Landslide" in 1997. In the series, Riley Keough portrays the frontwoman Daisy, paying homage to Nicks, while Sam Claflin embodies a Buckingham-inspired frontman and guitarist named Billy Dunne.

Keough, upon seeing Nicks' review, responded with a string of emojis that conveyed her understandable excitement and gratitude. Nicks also took a moment to honor her late friend Christine McVie, a keyboardist and singer for Fleetwood Mac who passed away in November of last year. Nicks expressed her regret that McVie couldn't witness the show, as she believed McVie would have loved it.

Nicks' endorsement of "Daisy Jones and the Six" holds significant weight, especially for the show's producers at Hello Sunshine, Reese Witherspoon's production company. Nicks concluded her post by expressing her hope that the show will continue, a sentiment that could potentially influence the decision to renew the series for a second season. However, Amazon has yet to make an official announcement regarding a potential renewal. Despite this, the creators of the show, Scott Neustadter and Lauren Neustadter, remain optimistic and determined, stating that they are not giving up and believe that the show will continue to captivate audiences. The only question that remains is when this will happen.
