I agree. Her voice is fine but she's being a big lazy with her orchestrating the verses which is very Stevie. She was not mailing it in like the Wild Heart version the next year though. Having said all that, its still the second best tour of Sara with the Mac. Sadly we would have to wait 33 more years for a live version of Sara with these 5 again. I also noticed the Mirage Sara is edited down from the Tusk version.
