‘As an artist, part of you doesn’t want to be joyful,’ Crow says. ‘Because you think you’ll never write a good song again’
which she says is her final full-length album . “This album, for me, was about as emotional of a project as I’ve ever made,” Crow says. “So emotional, it’s hard to talk about it sometimes.”
She describes trying to record vocals for a posthumous duet with Johnny Cash on her apocalyptic song “Redemption Day,” which was the moment she realized she wantedto be her finale: “One night I was in the studio and it was late,” she says. “My kids were already in bed. I was in there by myself. And I just felt [Johnny’s] presence. I do think there’s a very thin veil between all the spiritual realms. And I just felt the weight and breadth and profundity of him singing those words at this moment.
She also touched on her New Jersey weekends with her friends Patti Scialfa and Bruce Springsteen, her history with pop radio , dealing with depression and harassment in the early days of her career, and much more. “As an artist, part of you doesn’t want to be joyful,” Crow says. “Because you think you’ll never write a great song again. And you want to be tortured. I just finally had to grapple with the fact that wasn’t my story. That was my mythology, but it wasn’t my story.
