Great Quotations: Sheryl Crow

Videos by American Songwriter

“Writing the lyrics, it was like having a term paper hanging over my head. But I saw the documentary of making ‘Exile on Main Street,’ and there’s a scene where Mick has all these tunes that don’t have any lyrics, and it made me feel so much better. That’s one of my favorite records of all time, and I figure, ‘Well, if he had a suitcase full of songs he had to write lyrics for and it turned out that good, there’s some hope here.’”
