The "Love Is" demo is fast moving into my Stevie top 10. It has such a 70's feel to it. I love the "whoooo-hooooo" way up high in her falsetto register at the beginning of the song.

"Do not call or come around here-
Do not tell...
You know that I loved you then
Ohhhhhh, well....."

And, yeah- what the hell was that all about cutting the best part of "Planets of the Universe" for the version that made the album??? That was really stupid.

"And dooon't condescend to me!
Take your leave- take your leave- take your leave of me now
Disappear... into the air-
Well, I wish you gone and I don't care!!!"

Yup - having my own forehead-slap moment. Those two are definitely on my list, too, and those parts of the song you quoted are the primary reasons why.
