Same here... I think it's beautiful musically, and I love the whole message of the song too. Closest Stevie's ever gotten to being political musically... and she did it in a very classy, very
Stevie way. It's all fantastic imagery in my opinion... probably the last song she wrote using that kind of imagery and allusion until
Illume 10 years later. I love how in both songs she's sort of sending her opinion of beauty and reassurance to those who have been victims of hate. I don't see what's to dislike about either of these songs... they make you think, they're beautiful, and have a transportive quality. All of this is why I started listening to Stevie in the first place!
