IMHO it's a bit of both explanations.
Stevie HAS had a re-invigoration with IYD and her creative collab with Dave. I think her and Lindsey have reached an understanding and reminiscing stage of their relationship..for now..that can only add to that positive energy. She's in a relatively good place. Her music has sounded strong vocally, we all know the changes of her tones and fragility i.e. WH> RAL > OSOTM > etc. And I can see how she (and vivfox!) may relate her described current "sound" on these new songs to younger days.
I think that is further restated by Stevie describing the songs as "sounding 30." I don't think WildHearted meant the songs were written 30 years ago..LB has kind of described their origin and meaning via Rolling Stone. But I do think the melody, harmonies, instrumental/backing track could be reminiscent of post Rumours-esue versus more comparable to SYW. Which I think is good all around!
I'm really excited about them both revisiting this sound from a mature perspective, as well as their "roots" as a couple, band, etc. Can't wait. It better pay off..
