Nobody's Perfect - Commentary

Lucius and Sheryl Crow don't on Big Machine Radio

That is off of Sheryl Crow's new album Threads

And you've gotta get a physical copy

So you can see some of the incredible pictures in this album

That tell the stories of the people that she's singing with

And I once heard Sheryl describe this next woman

As like being wrapped up in a warm comforter with a warm cup of cocoa

Just so soothing and so pure

And I'm not gonna argue with her because Emmylou Harris is amazing

And I, I would love to hear about you getting to work with Emmylou on Nobody's Perfect

Nobody's Perfect is actually an old song

And I wanted to have a song on here

That I could ask Emmylou Harris to sing on

I go all the way back with Emmylou Harris to..., gosh, in my first record

And well before that because I had all of her records

And then I actually had her and Graham Parsons

And I've followed her through the years and

When Red Dirt came out, Red Dirt Girl, I felt like this woman is showing me the way

Of how to continue to be on fire in your writing

And how to continue to be authentic

I mean she's continued to tour, she has reinvented herself throughout her long lengthy career

Her songs, I mean Red Dirt Girl and the album that came out after that

Have some of her greatest songs on them and

It just shows me you can continue even in your way up in your career

To continue to write great songs

I wanted to ask her, she also happens to be one of my favorite people to sing with

Because of the blend, I feel that we have and

Just the history that we have, so

I had this song that I wrote with Jeff Trott from years ago

And I sent it to..., is very much like a

It's kind of actually like a Burrito Brothers

Flying Burrito Brothers song, and I could hear her on it

And so she came into the studio, and we did it together

And it was just a great experience

I love her so much
