The nicest thing to come out of this whole thing has been my great friendship with Sheryl. From the second we met I realized that we came from the same musical place. We both love harmony singing, the old folk music and old country music, besides our love for rock 'n' roll. I know that when I'm 90 years old and she's 75, we'll still be dear old friends,
I know I've made a friend for life." |

Sheryl has become a very personal songwriter, and that's what will make her
a big part of rock history in 15 years. |
||
[Sheryl and I had] been circling the idea of working
on this album for quite a while, but we could never quite make it happen because
of scheduling conflicts. So, we just went on with our respective business, but
we stayed in close touch. Suddenly, things cleared up and we wound up in the studio
together. ...Our connection is deep... deeper than I can even put into mere words. |
||
[When Sheryl and I get together] we have a whole
girlfest. That's fun, because we know a lot of famous people. We can talk about
everybody. So we have a great time. |
||
First, Sheryl's brilliant, she's an amazing songwriter, singer and musician.
But she's also someone who gets it. She understands the life of a woman in rock'n'roll.
There's no room for playing games with her or saying, 'You don't understand what
I'm going through.' She understands, and that's brought us closer than I can explain. |
||
Sheryl challenged me to explore different areas of my voice. It was fun to
do, and it wound up working so well within the song's [Sorcerer]
arrangement. |
||
Singing with Sheryl is very much like singing with Lindsey: She's a real great
duet singer and so we had a great jumping-off point from the beginning. |
||
[Sheryl's] very organized,. You have to be. You can't
be la-la-la-la like me and be a really good producer. |
