In the 90s MacKenzie wrote an affectionate song, "Steven, You're Still Really Something". It is considered to be his riposte. The lyric included a slightly sinister outing threat in; 'If I'm going down, I'll do you down with me', sweetened only by the coupling; 'And I loved the way you sent your poetry'.
