Songfacts®:

  • The titular Stevie is Stevie Wonder, who plays harmonica on this track. Pixie told the Mail On Sunday's You Magazine that the Motown legend's contribution was a delightful surprise for her. She recalled: "We were recording in Los Angeles, and one of the guys said he had a friend coming over – he wouldn't say who it was. I was really overwhelmed when Stevie Wonder, my all-time favorite musician, walked through the door."
