Stevie doesn't normally write that literally anyway. She means VERY YOUNG...sorry for the rant. Micks age is such a issue with me and Beautiful Child.
Basically my feeling is that when he filled out that Melody Maker Chart in 1969, he wrote his bday as 6/24/47-- and why would a 21 yr old lie about his age? (well maybe to appear older so he could drink etc but that wasn't an issue anyway!)

The falling in love w/ Stevie when she was 10 bit is beyond my scope of Stevie knowledge LOL. IMO she just chose the age ten because it rhymed w/ 'then'!
