I think it's awkward in some spots, but overall very cool. I love this song- I haven't heard a version that I didn't like.

In my humble opinion this is the best version. I enjoy it much more than the slow, sappy versions... however I have always been a lover of the blues

PS) I LOVE Stevie's kick-ass vocals @ 3:30~ when she sings "IIII'VE CHAAANGED!"

Totally love this version. Wasn't it recorded by FM?

I like this version a lot. I've had it on my ipod for along time, but I don't think it captures the feeling of the BATB that we hear on the album. IMO, I think the BATB on the Soundstage cd is one of the best. I say that because, with the orchestra, it sets a different mood to the song and a different way of thinking about it. This blues outtake is amazing, but it sounds more like something you might hear if you were just walking into a bad somewhere. It's great, just different. I have a couple other demos of this and its amazing. Do you guys all have the one where it's her first time playing it in the studio and she's telling the story about the night she watched "La Belle et La Bette"? I love that one. She's so raw and she messes up and its beautiful.

Loves it.

This is Fleetwood Mac working on the song, in early rehearsals, prepping new material for consideration for an album (Mirage?). Stevie presented this song to the band at some point. Christine's keyboard work and Mick's drumming are unmistakeable.

I really love the "blues" version... I listen to it alot in the car.. when I am just crusin' or whatever... but I do love the one on the album a bit better.. especially the Soundstage BATB like Bryson said.. that is beautiful!
