THeir next recording together was SYW and that was 2002 they were recording…. who the hell knows with them

I don't think she felt independent with those solo albums though. I don't think she felt in charge with her early albums the way she began to with TISL.

You know that October 1997 Spin Magazine interview is the same one in which she says that she came upon Lindsey and Christine:

I also remember getting very upset with Lindsey one night when I realized that he and Christine had written "World Turning." I had been with Lindsey all those years and we had never written a song together. Plus, I walked into the studio and they were singing it together."
