The studio version leaves me cold. It's very boring and drab. I don't really like the instrumentation on it and find it quite annoying how the song starts out. And, don't stone me, but...I absolutely despise the vocal.  It's quite possibly one of her most cloying, whiny vocals she's ever recorded, IMO.

Well...I definately won't stone you. I asked for everyone's opinion, and I definately agree with some of what you said.
I don't like the beginning of the studio version. Thank goodness it gets better though. Once you get to the first 'Don't say that she's pretty...did you say she loved you...' it sounds great. There's a very very simple guitar thing in that part that almost makes up for the not so great guitar solo later. The chorus of course is great. I love the pounding REAL piano in it. The bridge and chorus of the song really have a classic rock sound to them. I love music like that.
Stevie's voice at the beginning is a little whiny. Again...it gets better. Like many of you said...I like how she sounds a little older and wiser and maybe a little angry in the live version.
Thanks for all the replies.
