One thing she's not happy about is being sidelined from performing due to the coronavirus pandemic.
"Time is being stolen from all of us," Nicks said. "Absolutely. Especially if you're 72 years old."
"Does that weigh on you?" Smith asked.
"Yeah, it does. When you're really working, you really stay young. You stay young because you have to," Nicks replied. "But, when you're just sitting around in your house, I think that Old Man Time starts to get ahold of you."

Smith also asked Nicks if she's had "a great love" in her life.
"Yeah. Three," she admitted. "But it's not easy to be Mr. Stevie Nicks. Even if you happen to be Mr. Really Famous Rock Star Guy."
