Wow...that's an interesting tidbit to know...
Not to toot my own horn but i knew this version was NOT Stevie...I think the vocalist's singing style sounds a tad like Stevie when sped up a bit. I just didn't think it was her when i downloaded it although i kept the file just in case i found out it was in fact Stevie singing. At one point, I thought maybe it was recorded in the late '70's (obviously after 1978 since that's when the original song was written and recorded by Atlanta Rhythm Section) but at the same time wondered who she would have recorded it with being so involved with FM at that time period. It also sounded exactly like the Atlantic Rhythm Section's version.
I recently reorganized my files where i deleted multiple copies etc...I came across this one and listened to it again after not hearing it for a while and i totally didn't think it was Stevie so i deleted it.
It all makes sense now!!!
