And - like in TD and SYW - there shoulf have been a last verse instead of the repeating of the chorus. And - that gimmicky voice thing - ugh!

Yeah the helium voice...was that really necessary? John shines on this song though. It's amazing how he makes the song so many times. He does it on a lot of Stevie's songs.

I think that is because he is way talented and she tend to write in such a stark manner that he has more freedom to create his part - but in songs like Dreams (WHERE HE RULES THE SONG IMO) he essentially follows her chords in the stark demo.
