Yes it went right over everyone's head including mine. All these words about Tara and Scarlett. Had no idea what Frontline was back then either. During the Greatest Hits Rockline segment a fan called in and asked Stevie directly what the song was about. The only thing she said was "if you listen really carefully to the song you will figure it out."
I guess no one or few got her subtleness so on TOSOTM she had to be more direct and blunt with Escape from Berlin.
Put me in the camp of not liking any of the Stevie songs on Tango. I suppose Seven Wonders bothers me the least. However to think Stevie sang someone else's song on a Mac album. That never happened before.
