There is no middle ground to this song, this is one of those Stevie songs I suspect that fans either love or hate, but I think the majority of fan's really love it. I'm in the love it category, I think it's just so honest and unpretentiously beautiful. And I love both versions, the demo for the tender rawness and the recorded version for the airy ethereal feel Pierre Marchand arranged to it, esp the ending which just builds and builds to pure joy.
