My feeling about covers is that if you don't have anything to say don't say
anything. In other words, if you don't have anything new to add to a song in
your interpretation don't cover the song. There is no point in covering a
song unless you are able to make it your own. With respect to Stevie, don't
mess with it.

Peace Out,
