But it's not winning me back,'' she recounted.īut Collins loved 'Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,' and never shied away from her association with it. 'I said: 'Oh, Stephen, it's such a beautiful song. Both of them cried, she told the Guardian. The song touches obliquely on the facts of this breakup - it even references Collins' time in therapy with a controversial therapist, with the line 'Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays?' referring to her standing appointment, per one of Collins' books, 'Singing Lessons.'Īfter he completed the song, Stills played it for Collins. 'My center was in New York and his in LA,' she said. I was left with all these pieces of song and I said, 'Let's sing them together and call it a suite,' because they were all about the same thing and they led up to the same point.'Īccording to an interview with Collins in The Guardian, her relationship with Stills mostly fell apart because of distance. I had a hell of a time getting the music to fit. 'It poured out of me over many months and filled several notebooks. 'It started out as a long narrative poem about my relationship with Judy,' wrote Stills, in the liner notes of a Crosby, Stills, and Nash box set. Both Stills and Collins, who are still friends today, have acknowledged that the 'Both Sides, Now' singer is the inspiration behind the 1969 song (per The Guardian).
