Sheryl and the producer did a bang up job on this. Bolstering (at times almost replacing) Stevie's vocals with Sheryl's works very well. Seems Stevie can only write structurally/rhythmically incoherent songs these days, almost like a new genre all of its own. But they do well with what they were given. And the call-back to lyrics from Straight Back gave me a happy tingle (even though I don't like that song much either).
Stevie inserting herself into the song as a beacon of political activism is like a bad joke. No need for a skit on SNL... Just play the video.
Well done Sheryl.
Er, Stevie too.
