I'm not that disappointed about the inclusion of this song, because I more or less look at this release as I would any other Stevie album, and she's always thrown another songwriter into the mix. But I do think Vanessa's songwriting and Stevie's voice aren't an ideal match. I'm not expecting this to be an album highlight.

Thank you! To asume that Stevie chose this song over another vault song doesn't make sense to me. Likely there was no Sophie's Choice moment, picking one over another. She recorded all the vault songs she wanted to record (or re-record, which was the case for Twisted) and she just decided to add this song to the project. I'm not too crazy about the song's inclusion, as it does break ranks with the much vaunted vault concept. But that's just how Stevie rolls, sometimes throwing curve balls.
