I frankly give bassist/producer Kevin McCormick credit for making her first two albums so spectacular. Here's ME doing Royal Station 4/16 live on an official release, also. Over 11 minutes long!!!

I love Melissa Etheridge. This is ME with Bruce Springsteen with a beautiful rendition of Thunder Road ... they do "you ain't a beauty but hey you're all right" together.

My favorite ME lyric is from "No Souvenirs."

Shame, shame but I love your name
And the way you make the buffalo roam

Sleep While I Drive is a very romantic lullaby for a lover. Recommend singing to them on long road trips.
