To be honest, this song is my least favourite off Bella Donna, and I find the story of it being recorded as a necessity to bypass radio politics and actually get solo Stevie some airplay kind of depressing. I have a hard time loving it anyway. I'm sure the Tom Petty solo version would be no better or worse, to my ears.

Gimme Insider any day.

Its my least favourite too. I don't mind his vocal on it, its some of the guitar parts that I really don't like. There are parts of the song I do like, so sometimes I play it, and sometimes I skip it depending on my mood. I didn't know there was a story behind it regarding radio politics.
