Default SN/LB co-writes we don't know about?

wow - thanks so much Nicole! so much easier to discuss using this than that pdf (that so many stated they couldn't even read for some reason?)!

Lindsey was always her interpreter in terms of the fact that he has obviously, you know, a very deep understanding of what her thoughts are in the songwriting department. I can't interpret her as well as he does. The truth of the matter is that we won't stop trying. I'm going to give it another go because she is such a great talent."
this statement is interesting and somewhat puzzling, at least to me. Christine says she is having trouble co-writing with Stevie and goes on to describe how Lindsey never had trouble with that. what does this mean? as far as we know there are no Stevie/Lindsey co-written songs other than Frozen Love. he has only been mentioned as a producer and arranger, for both Stevie's and Christine's songs.

also, it sounds like SN and CM tried (recently?) to co-write a song, in one of the several ways: Stevie started a song, Christine tried to add on to it to make it a complete song, and either didn't see where to go with it, or if she did, Stevie didn't like the result.
