I wanted to make sure to come on very strong, because if Patti stops singing at that point, if it ain't strong there's no sense doing it. So I always had to try to start it off strong and just go with it from there. Now you can get a 29 cent thing and plug into it. It was really funny. We had to struggle across the studio then, and if it wasn't long enough we'd have to push the little scooter machine farther.
First person is so personal sometimes, especially when it's about something.
I mostly like observation lyrics. I can't stand to sing it in first person. She did a great job on that song. That's really a tremendous job. She writes great melodies.
