I completely disagree with that! If you applied that logic to the other older songs, Stevie would never again sing Rhiannon, Dreams etc... Yes, Stevie's voice has changed (as all singers' voices change as they age). She no longer sings many of her songs in their original key. Dreams is a perfect example of that.
It's unreasonable to expect her at age 54(?) to sound exactly how she did when she was 26. And it's unfair to hold their live performances up against the studio versions....Fleetwood Mac, even in their heyday of the 1970s, never ever replicated their studio sound in live performance. And now, like many older singers, they've had to adjust to compensate. Stevie can sing anything...including I Don't Want To Know!
