As is often the case, D, I agree with your statement. This is my central argument about why some of Stevie's songs do not appeal to more people. The stuff gets too specific and specific to a life that is radically different from average people. I too think this song came from a genuine and authentic place, but it doesn't really move me. The production, wacky voices notwithstanding, is stellar. However, emotionally, it hits me about the same as 'Desert Angel'. How something can be too specific and too vague at the same time is puzzling, but the song is both to me. Happy to hear it means so much to others, though.

When I first heard it, it reminded of the drivel that is "Ghosts." "She depends on her music like a husband..." Help me, I'm gagging! How would that song relate to anyone?
