"I Want You Back" & Lindsey
Does anyone know if Lindsey wrote "I Want You Back" along with some guy named Steve Ross?? I just recently discovered this. I've actually always really liked the song. Does anyone know who Steve Ross is? Also who sings the song? And one last question: Does anyone know the exact lyrics? I've tried to listen closely a couple of times and in the middle it's really hard to make them out.

Hi Ali... yeah, Lindsey and Steve Ross co-wrote it.
Ross is a guitarist/vocalist who's been a longtime Fleetwood Mac associate, and toured with Lindsey on the 'Cradle' tour. He also had an instructional "how to play guitar" video out, if I recall correctly (I remember seeing ads for it, which stated that he was a "former Fleetwood Mac guitarist"!). I just gave "I Want You Back" a listen (I'd forgotten how much I love this song), and these are the lyrics to the best of my ability.... Run around in circles Like a dog without a home Since you went and left me I'm lonely to the bone I want you back I want you back again I want you back I want you back again Sittin' right behind me Is a girl I know *She put her eyes upon me *And put me on my toes I want you back I want you back again I want you back I want you back again (* I used to think he sang: "She put her hands upon me, and put me on her tongue"... but... uhm... well, I have a feeling he doesn't say that. )

This is what I got, Johnny, listening to it obsessively to transcribe it for my site:
We run around in circles Like a dog without a home Since you went and left me I'm lonely to the bone I want you back (I want you) I want you back again I want you back (I want you) I want you back again Sitting right behind me Is a girl I know She puttered 'round the palace And kept men on their toes I want you back (I want you) I want you back again (repeat and fade) |

Good detective work Nancy (as usual) - 'puttered' sounds like the song as I recall it. I saw that you're hosting it this week! But I got it yonks ago. It's somehwere amidst all the 1000s of downloads. Honestly sometimes I should just download songs I know I have cause it's easier than finding it.

I suggest over and over that he's in the video but no one will tell me for sure.
There is a scene, at the end, where there are the monks walking down in the castle. The front person , a male, is singing. He is wearing a lot of weird make up but it LOOKS like Lindsey. He is just making very familiar movements. No one will tell me for sure, but I am so sure it is. At the end I think he stands near or next to Stevie...the obvious star with her glowing head.
