It’s interesting she said this around the time of mirage, because “Only Over You” and “Wish You Were Here” are reminiscent of PYL in terms of melody and vocals. It’s like she decided to rewrite PYL instead of actually re-recording it. I think both those songs are inferior to PYL, though.
Totally agree on all points. The vocal for PYL is very strong. I wish it were mixed a little more prominently.

I like OOY and WYWH but they aren’t as harmonically interesting as PYL.
