I have to agree with a couple of the comments already about this being autobiographical. If so, that's pretty gutsy to make it the opening single of their brand new album. But as Hank used to say, there's no apologies for a great song. If you're in the line of fire when the writer is creating, you're fair game.
Their sudden tour cancellation when they were at the very cusp of exploding in popularity was more than strange. The sexual chemistry of their stage act was obvious to anyone watching. SOMETHING had to happen, or almost happen. And I think this song is one artistic perspective on that. One way or the other it's a heck of a song. This has echoes of some of the great incredibly personal material that filled Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors". Not bad company. I'm glad they're still around.
