Why do you say 1995? I always thought it was recorded during the Mirror era. The way she sings with the girls and theres a demo of Doing the Best I Can that has a very similar piano part.....I could be wrong though

Totally agree 100%.

Totally disagree 100%.

Also agree that this song is beyond amazing. I first got it in the mail on a Friday afternoon back in 2001, and after listening to it once, I put it on "repeat" and let it play non-stop until I went to work the following Monday morning.

(By the way, chriskin, that's a great quote in your signature! ROTFLMAO!)

I hear none of TWH era rasp on this, though you're right, it's also not as flat as much of what's on TISL. I agree with vivfox, sounds mid-'90s to me.

I think this is a great example of a song where the vocal interplay between Stevie & her backup singers helps the track shine.

One of my absolute favorites. I'm working on Great Expectations right now with one of the students I tutor, and we're going to listen to this song when we analyze Estella.
