Of course, I've already noted that most people here do like it. That's what made is so surprising to me when I finally heard it, because the descriptions of it and it's transformation from the demo set me up to expect something completely different.

You wouldn't say that to Bob Dylan Sorry, I know it's corny but I had to. Yes, this is not a song in the sense that there's no chorus, or even coherent versus. But it is a song. Just not the norm of what most people classify as a song. It has music, and Stevie is singing. It's called free verse. And her urgent vocal delivery keeps the song moving. I guess it's just a hit or miss for people.
