I wanted people to stand back and really watch and understand what was.” In an interview with the Miami Herald that same year, she also explained that performing the song live offered a form of closure for her and Buckingham: “Well, since that performance I have to sing ‘Silver Springs’ to him almost every day, so Lindsey and I get to do and say things that we wouldn’t get to say to each other in real life. “That concept of a woman’s right to be angry is absolutely based on Stevie Nicks singing ‘Silver Springs’ at Lindsey Buckingham during their reunion show, The Dance,” she said. “I have always been very moved by Stevie Nicks singing that song the way she did then.” Claflin, who plays band frontman Billy Dunne in the series, told Elle magazine that a friend also sent him the performance ahead of his audition for the role: “He was like, ‘Just channel this mate.’” After being successfully cast, Claflin then sent the clip to his co-star, Keough, who plays Daisy Jones.
