Yes. IDWTK is definitely a Stevie song and neither one of them would not mention that it wasn’t after all these lo 100 years. Stevie probably just doesn’t like it because Lindsey made her sick of it even before they joined FM. She wanted to move on to her new material and have a song on Rumours that didn’t include so much of his vocals.

Lindsey recently said that in the past he often gave Stevie tracks to write to which he said "she used to like". IDWK feels like it could definitely be such a song. He didn't name any songs where that might be the case and it would appear he never took any credit for doing so, and that would make one more piece of the puzzle that explains why he has been so angry and took any number of digs at her over the years... I've always felt the extent of his grudge had to go further than just a spurned lover and had just as much if not more to do with his belief that without his playing, arranging and producing her songs she would never have had the level of success she had. If you add to that that he provided music for her to write to and didn't take credit, that would explain a LOT. (For those who think he wouldn't do that, recall she totally wrote at least part of Wild Heart to his track for Can't Go Back and I've never seen him credited as a cowriter).

I think many of the words, too, are Lindseyish, but that’s harder to pin down. Now you tell me that I’m crazy/It’s nothin’ that I didn’t know — Lindsey has written a million other songs with that sort of humor and sarcastic self criticism (I didn’t wanna be this late/So don’t make me wait). Stevie doesn’t write stuff like that. She doesn’t admit to her character flaws with quite so much tongue in cheek. But maybe she wrote this lyric to mimic her man’s hippie/mountain man voice. Maybe that’s part of what the song means: Our relationship is hot and cold so often that we can’t even keep up with it, and I’m starting to sound like you.

Back to Paper Doll, I just looked up the Wikipedia entry for the song, and apparently it made #9 in Canada??? Like #9 on the pop chart, not even adult contemporary. That kinda blows my mind if it’s true.
It got to #8 on Bubbling Under Hot 100 in the US. I like the song, except for the lead vocal. Her voice sounds really blown out to me on this one.

David, are you trying to tell me that you can't see Stevie composing a song in the key of B on the piano? You wouldn't say that to Dvořák!

I also think it might sound a bit better with Christine singing the verses, Stevie singing the bridge, and everyone singing the chorus.

Y'all spend way too much time thinking about the dynamic between them, when their relationship ended a half century ago.

It’s interesting to me that people have mentioned Stevie’s vocals, but no one seems to mind the bizarre… I’m not sure what the word is… cartoon-like sound effects prevalent throughout the song that makes me think the video for Paper Doll could feature the Road Runner being chased by Wile E. Coyote.
Beep beep indeed! |

Roadrunner and Sugar Daddy are way better songs.
