Wikipedia article"'If Anyone Falls'" is a song by American singer and songwriter Stevie Nicks. It was the second single from her second solo studio album 'The Wild Heart' (1983). The song peaked at number 14 on the US 'Billboard' Hot 100 and reached number eight on the 'Billboard' Mainstream Rock chart. BackgroundThe song is based on an instrumental synthesizer track called The Last American, written by singer-songwriter Sandy Stewart. Dallas studio owner and producer Gordon Perry sent the track to Nicks. The next thing I know, Im on the phone and Gordons saying, You cant have it back. They want to use it on Stevies next album, Stewart told Record Magazine in 1984. 'Cash Box' said that it "manages to be familiar and sure-footed without being predictable."
