The melody is too redundant and there are no significant chord progressions like he's known for creating. I dunno, sounds pretty
 to me (and ya'll know how this hurts me to say that  ).
I wanted you of all people to love this song!  | |

Agreed. I'm glad to see Stevie given up for the funk once more.  | |

I wanted you of all people to love this song! Yeah, me, too David...that's why it hurts me to say what I said. I will note, however, that I love his live drum playing. It's so simple, yet distinct. Kinda puts me in the same mindset as "Superstition."  I know the rest of the album will be much better, I'm just hoping this isn't his one "funky" track to jump off the release. | |

But yeah I agree with you...there are stronger songs on the album,I just know it. | |
