The version that's been linked to this blog is the cleanest I've seen. When I had an old copy of a copy of a copy of a bootleg vhs tape back in the day I always thought Stevie was backstage at a Mirage rehearsal and while she's vamping on Love In Store, Lindsey was on stage and decided to upstage her by starting to play his song. She says something like "this kills me" and I always thought that she meant he was always trying to upstage her. But now that I know the real story of this video I know none of that was true. In fact, I had forgotten all about her comments at the beginning. Then today, watching this very clear copy, I noticed that when Can't Go Back starts up she says "This is the one... that he wrote... it kills me... this is what kills me..." I'm wondering if she's talking about the lyrics (his take on how he's moved on with his life and will never go back to her). Which makes the fact that she then takes his piece of music and sings her own response all the more delicious.

except it doesn't appear that he's got any lyrics for it yet… certainly none on the recording, so saying 'this is what kills me' wouldn't make any sense to the person she's talking to coz all they'd hear was the music. I think she's just saying, this is the one with the music that kills me coz it's so good or coz it lends itself to my song or whatever.
