My problem with the song is it doesn't go anywhere. Yes it's catchy at first. But the chorus sounds the same as the verses. There is no change in instrumentation.

I know Stevie's songs also stay the same but Lindsey would always change the instrumentation throughout the song to shake things up a bit.

Simple pop songs with 10 words and simple chorus are extremely over rated. Songs are about music, rhythm, guitar solo, beat, lyrics and mood. You never hear anyone say...gee that song has a great chorus
Of course you do! Go Your Own Way, Dreams, Don't Stop, The Chain, all songs with really famous choruses that a casual fan can pick out.

The chorus in Landslide is iconic. 'Time makes you bolder, children get older, I'm getting older too' is one of Stevie's most well known phrases. Very different from Sugar Daddy.
