Affairs of the Heart is a song written by Stevie Nicks and recorded by her with Fleetwood Mac on their 1990 album Behind the Mask (album).
The song, like In the Back of My Mind from the same album, features backing vocals that act in dialogue with the lead vocal. When Nicks sings the famous adage that it is better to have loved and lost, Billy Burnette can be heard replying that it is better still not to lose.
