lifeblood: songs: backgrounds: stand and deliver


2008-06-04: amy is a ray of light, the windy city times:

lawrence ferber: which song is the most personal?

amy ray: they really all are, but probably "stand and deliver." "rabbit foot" is really personal but "stand" is in some ways the most confessional about my own feelings of inadequacy. it's always fun to be self-deprecating.

2008-10-03: amy ray finds inspiration in lonely nights, the toledo blade:

ray's secret weapon on "didn't it feel kinder" is singer/songwriter brandi carlile, who handles many of the background vocals. she toured with the indigo girls, often joining them on stage and ray calls her "crazy good."

carlile is most prominent on the anthemic "stand and deliver," on which ray said she gave her carte blanche to do whatever she wanted vocally.
