Quotes
Aww thank you so much! It was actually the President of the labels idea to do it. We knew we wanted to do a cover of something. Then he came in and was like do “I Can’t Tell You Why” by the Eagles. So we tested it out and decided that we wanted to go with it for the album.
That it was interesting. I was a bit shy, so it was odd having all those people around us just there watching. I was like UGH! I wasn’t really comfortable with all of that at that time. But it really was fine after awhile and the director and the actor in the video were really cool. It turned out to be really fun!
Lack of promotion! We didn’t get as nearly as much promotion as we got for our first album, for the second album. Promotion is VERY important!
It was really great. Just the chance to meet some of those artists that we had never met was really good. It was a wonderful opportunity for us.
I did not want to do an R&B record! It’s like coming from where I do, I’m more into Pop music. Like The Eagles, to Bob Marley type reggae influenced music, but not just R&B. I also love the Carpenters, I love the tone of her voice.
