"For What It's Worth" could date back as far as 94/95, "Secret Spell" and "Moonlight" were old songs, "My Heart" was a TISL outtake, "In Your Dreams" was born out of a jam session in the studio.

The only songs that we know were absolutely written by Stevie and Dave co-writing together are "Cheaper Than Free" and "Everybody Loves You". The majority of Dave's work on the album was production and adding melody to already written poems.

There's absolutely no reason why Stevie couldn't have a bunch of new songs up her sleave or why she can't reach into the vaults for some demo's that never made an album. Most likely, the new album will be a combination of new songs with some old demo's thrown in, just like everything she's done since 1994 has been.

I think Stevie wrote FWIW in 2009/2010, while she was in Hawaii with Lori and her niece.
