But.. but...
Stevie's lyrics were much sparser earlier on, compared to later on.
This track reminds me of Stevie's "Without You."
I also think, as Lindsey has noted, that Stevie has (or had) a canny/intuitive/dymanic sense of rhythm/phrasing, whereas I feel the rhythm/phrasing of Lindsey's lyrics can hang a bit awkwardly/stiltedly/prosaically over the music by comparison. And in this demo the vocals seem to have a funky dynamism that falls more under the former type.
Or could it be a rare co-write--Lindsey's music and verse with Stevie contributing a chorus lyric?
