It's old. Stevie recorded it -- probably with Fleetwood -- in the mid-1970s, maybe as early as 1976. She & FM recorded it again around 1981, perhaps for the Mirage album.

Default Say

As with most of Stevie's songs, its impossible to know the true inspiration, but IMO the cheating man in this song is Henley. BARF. (just my own speculation)
I don't remember her ever discussing this song before.
Lots of people prefer the old angry version, myself included. Actually its almost like they are two different songs to me, angry SAY and SYW SAY.

I've always imagined the song to be about Lindsey for some reason ...

I took down the passowrd protect anyway but Im so unhappy that people can not RESPECT my wishes and reasons to why my site was password protected,if I want everyone to have the password I would have posted it on my site,HELL i would not password protected it at all! This is just RUDE!

Dreams, im sorry that i have upset you, but i did give this password out as to my foolish mind it made sense to. You had said on your website that someone had come in and stolen you webspace, therefore anyone who from then on wanted to download the music had to go the extra effort to fill in there email address and you would send them a password. I understood this was to steer the thieves away. Now to me only the true fans are on this ledge and therefore are the very people you want to share your music with so the password protection didn't apply and i would believe that those thieves wouldn't also be on this page.

Im wrong...
