Description
“My music has been a great resource and cathartic tool, but also something I’ve hid behind.”
Revealing, intimate, and exhilaratingly raw, celebrated songwriter and acclaimed singer Sheryl Crow’s Words + Music provides the perfect canvas for the nine-time Grammy Award-winning artist to showcase her potent talent, articulate her complex inner workings, and breathe new life into a sizable stack of her most beloved tracks. Part of Audible’s rapidly expanding Words + Music series, blending storytelling, music, and performance to create exceptional listening experiences, Crow’s session is marked by gorgeously stripped-down versions of the songs that made her a household name (exclusively recorded for these sessions). The tunes punctuate rich storytelling, as she dives deep into the history of her career, reexamining the personal experiences and relationships that impacted her artistic journey.
“My journey is my own”, Crow says. “I mean, it's definitely not without some detours and definitely not without some hard lessons”. True to form, Crow leads us through her winding road to success - maybe more accurately defined as a series of jolting roller-coaster rides, as she recounts all the fits and starts, the feverish highs and lows, that have come to define a career now in its fourth decade. Featuring stunningly crisp, yet lo-fi renditions of eight songs including, “If It Makes You Happy”, “All I Wanna Do”, “Leaving Las Vegas”, “Strong Enough”, “My Favorite Mistake”, and George Harrison’s soulful “Beware of Darkness”, Sheryl Crow lays herself bare. From her early days in small-town Missouri where she sought salvation from her melancholy by turning to mystical rockers (Stevie Nicks and Zeppelin, most notably); to pursuing her dreams, and in quick fashion landing the spectacular gig as one of Michael Jackson’s featured solo vocalists on tour. (A career catapult that quickly became a cautionary tale.)
From the crushing weight of perfectionism and loneliness, to the joys of finally finding kindred musical spirits - only to have it all crumble, just as the music was skyrocketing, the toll of her volatile ascent to stardom comes into focus. In a particularly fascinating section, she revisits the total sense of peer disconnect during the height of her records’ success as her style was painfully incongruent with the greater musical landscape at the time. This, subsequently leading to an “adoption” of sorts by an older, more simpatico class of musicians - luckily for her, they doubled as her heroes: Nicks, Keith Richards, and Dylan among them. In another poignant moment, Sheryl lets listeners in on the dysfunction and emotional reckoning that came after her well-publicized romances with Eric Clapton and a few years later Lance Armstrong.
In just an hour and a half, Sheryl Crow manages to transform before our ears: from a well-known artist to human being we now know pretty damn well. That’s not easy to accomplish. And perhaps most extraordinarily, we are left with a lasting gift: beautiful songs we entered knowing become beautiful songs we now understand.

Informative and Inspiring
Candid, vulnerable, optimistic… Well, worth taking the time to listen. She provides inspiration in addressing emotional issues and our emotional ties, as well as regarding her strength of taking on new journeys without a safety net.

A real treat
It was a real treat to listen to Sheryl tell her story about her journey. She was open and honest about how she got to who she is today and I feel connected to her. Her music is a gift to the world as is this audible book.
Thank you

Well worth the listen
Sheryl Crow seems humble and honest. She does a great job of narrating. I enjoyed getting to know her and how her music came to be.

I love Sheryl Crow's voice and music!!!!
I'm in my sixties which places me right in the middle of such wonderful music genres. I listen to all of Sheryl Crow's music. Still have her CDs too.
To learn of her experiences with the Michael Jackson tour, both the good and the bad, puts me into an emotional state of love and sorrow for her.
But she is a Rock!!!
Thank you so much for sharing!!!

I tried it because it was free. I loved it!
I have always been hit and miss on Sheryl Crow's music - half of her hits, I don't enjoy and the other half are fantastic, so I decided I would give this title a listen and just stop if I didn't like it. I didn't stop. I listened straight through.
Sheryl tells really interesting stories about her start in show business and the challenges involved and is very open and honest about her experiences which makes for a compelling listen.
In these titles, music is mixed in, and I came to realize how talented Sheryl Crow is, and I thoroughly enjoyed the reworkings of the songs I didn't think were my favourites.
I can't say enough positive things about this edition of Words and Music.

Love Cheryl Crow’s Music
I enjoyed Cheryl’s music and her story.
Cheryl was very frank about her journey and the pitfalls. She tells her story about life, love and music. She tells the good, bad and the ugly that was, and still is, the entertainment industry.
Cheryl lays out how her songs came about from her own experiences. She takes the listener/reader along with her on her journey.

Sheryl Crow is brutally honest about her life
As the heading says, she tells it all. How she rose to the top and how she got the recognition she deserved. I guess the life of a celebrity isn't all peaches and cream.
The songs she sings in the book sound incredible.
