Yes, no one knows the song, despite the fact that a mega-million people have bought the record it's featured on. (insert irony here). Just because it's the only Rumours song they inexplicably never performed live, doesn't mean it lingers in obscurity. People know the song.
One of my theories is that because it originates back to their Buckingham Nicks era. To them, it represents the past. It's a rare occasion where Stevie and Lindsey actually sing as a folk duo, much like the Everly Brothers (one of their early influences). This is something that they generally never do together.
I loved the song when I first heard it in 1977. I still love it. And if you tell me that I'm crazy, like that is something that I didn't know.
