[BigAl84]

She's written some really great songs, no doubt about that....

But she's really benefited from all of the folks she's worked with to actually take those poems and mold them into a song.

She has this tendency to imply that her songs on the record came out exactly as she wrote them in her journals, which I think is massively misleading and inaccurate. There's a certain amount of process that goes into crafting them into songs (and editing that goes with it) and she consistently likes to gloss over it and tell the world she did it on her own instead (much like she does for almost everything)

The version of Sara on the record, isn't the same one she walked in with on day 1 in the studio. It was trimmed down from 16 minutes etc. She had working sessions with Tom Moncrief in addition to all of the work Lindsey and the band put into the song.
