I know she's not gonna sing it like she did in the 70's anymore, but they could do a similiar arrangement, with the long solo in the middle, and it would at least feel like it's new and different. It's one of Stevie's biggest hits, yet it always feels like it's being rushed. And I'm sick of those sleeves, too!!

The way
GDW had been changed when I first saw Stevie in Vegas, I was surprised that
Rhiannon hadn't been. Although I did like the slow intro and the way the curtains fell in a quick swoop as the music revved up. That added some drama to the intro of the song. But the remainder was the same. If nothing else, change the, "Welllllll, I don't think you do!" line.
