I love them both, but I prever Stevie's version.

"big ol' piece of cake!"

Love Stevie's version, his vocal percussion on this is just unreal..matter of fact, Music Of My Mind is criminally underrated in any discussion of Stevie's classic 70's run. Not a bad track on here as far as I'm concerned and to my ears, "Girl Blue" sounds like music that's still on the horizon..that's how in the zone Stevie was.

they go together

but if I had to pick one
it would be Syreeta's
much more funkier to me

how cool! cool

I get all uber excited
when I hear that sound effect
start up (sound like Atari or something LOL)

same with "I'm Goin Left"
from SWP... Syreeta
that sound effect & her giggle
lets me know musical bliss awaits

The bottom line for me is I much prefer Stevie's take on the chorus. Being used to his version, it took me a long time to adjust to the syncopation of Syreeta's "I love"s... and I still find them a little jarring.
