It's one of my favorites too. It has such a cool vibe to it, and would have been a great Fleetwood Mac track. There were so many recording attempts with this song, both with the band and solo. Obviously she saw its potential, and given all the time and effort to realize it, you think that she would have revisited it somewhere down the road. There are many songs that she was hyped about, yet they never saw the light of day. I remember when Rolling Stone wrote about her impending album 'The Other Side of the Mirror,' they mentioned the tracks 'Don't Treat Me Like a Stranger' and...memory loss...but they didn't even get released as as b-sides. What others do you like? 'Something Exquisite' is another favorite of mine.
