The artist

Sheryl Suzanne Crow (1962) is an American musician, singer, songwriter and actress. Her music incorporates elements of pop, rock, country, jazz, and blues. She has released ten studio albums, four compilations, two live albums and has contributed to a number of film soundtracks.

My album

The Globe Sessions (1998). The voice and the guitar are there and the album opens with My favourite mistake, song that it is said to have been composed after Crow's relationship ended with Eric Clapton.

My song

Strong Enough (Tuesday Night Music Club, 1993). Why? Because it is a beautiful, melancholic love song from a woman to a man. You can listen to a live version here.
