This would make a good Budweiser commercial song............

If you are a Stevie fan, no other version can compare.
This is the definitive performance.


Everyone in the dojo loves this song.

Really?  I think if you are going with a cover of this then it should really be Smashing Pumpkins

We're all getting older all the time (even children). In fact, I'm now about 10 seconds older.

I agree wholeheartedly!  And many of their albums, this included, are worth their weight in gold!

I'll second that.  But I can't ignore that the D Chicks' version sounds fresh to me, while this one still has faint echos of its exhaustive airplay decades ago.  If I heard both versions anew at roughly the same time, this softer, subtler version may get the nod.  Without question though, the cover made me listen to the song with new ears and made me realize just how good it was.  Leo Kottke's version of 'World Turning' did the same, though In that case I definitely prefer Leo's version.

I'll see your criticism and up you one, 'cause I started losing interest when Welch came in.  Penguin was forgettable; Mystery to Me was pretty good.  Then it all started going bland and pop-ish, and I just stopped listening, basically.

Go for it.  I think that every iteration of Mac had its merits, but yer entitled to your view.
