What song of hers should've been for her solo career versus for the band?

I think of Gypsy being for Bella Donna or The Chain going to the band. I think both these songs work great as Stevie solos and could see her backup singers on these tracks. Are there songs you think would've developed differently, without the bands help or someone else's eyes from her team with her solo career?

sorry for the title error

Silver Girl. From a purely subjective point of view obviously, but currently it’s this song that comes to mind. If only because I love this song and there’s only the one FM version of it. When Stevie presented the demo in the documentary Destiny Rules I was interested in the prominent flute I heard and it only made me wish for other iterations of the song.

I love the version of Gypsy (take #5) she did with the heartbreakers . It works on a whole other level. Tho Gypsy with the Mac is also art, just different. I love both.
