Next time you listen to WISYA, hear the "Fleetwood Mac" in it.
Listen to the guitar and keyboards, then combine the backing vocals by Buckingham/McVie. Notice how much contrast they have with this scorned and wounded woman. The sound off angels, as Stevie tries to figure out why she can't make it with the one who owns her heart. andddd (Who just happens to be singing 'beautifully' with a tall blonde british woman.)
Try to listen to it in this manner. Why? because Stevie Nicks nails what this song is about. You may not like her tone or timbre, but it accurately depicts the setting.
When you understand it that way, you can then appreciate the delicate voices, keyboards, and guitar that give way to a chamber of living angst.
............. well at least there is a dream left....

There really there is some redeeming value to this song. First and foremost, it's the voice and emotion of the
scorned woman. Next, it's the magic of FM that makes it work. But really, the band had to see something in this recording?!!! I kinda get it....I've had a few beers, so maybe it's me?!!!
