Meredith Brooks interview

PreppyWannabe · 06-15-2008, 01:00 AM

I discovered this interview totally by accident, trying to log into fanhost.
As a former Pro-Wrestling fan my eye caught Lilian Garcia's site here, where she was to have some article on the WWE's 2008 Hall Of Fame inductees.
Curious, I clicked it. No such article was found BUT, in her archives I noticed an interview with Meredith Brooks, from 2002! That's when Love's "Barenaked" album was released.
YES! Love is mentioned! Just a quick mention, but a mention just the same. Here it is:

WWE.com: What can you tell us about the rest of Lilian's album?

Brooks: The rest of the album is a big secret now. (Laughs) We're going through songs. I have a great lineup of musicians for her. We're just putting everything into motion and nurturing her career through this single, Universal and WWE all together. Hopefully, all of her fans are going to say, "This is so awesome!" and they'll support her. And then it's just a big green light.

WWE.com: So are you in the writing process? Are you in the recording process?
Brooks: We're in the writing process. We're in the song-collecting process. For me, it takes at least 25 songs to decipher what a record's going to be like. Mine was probably 50 or 60 songs. For Jennifer Love Hewitt's, "BareNaked," we definitely recorded at least 25 songs. The process boils down to recording 16 and then we end up with 11 or 12.

Still hoping Melinda might sing in Ghost Whisperer one day....

Yeah, isn't it the only thing she's done where she's not sung? I means she's done it in films and on other shows. But it'd be easy for her to get to sing on the show in someway.
