Whenever I've chosen a song because it's clever, it's always turned out to be a mistake.
Alison Krauss
Growing up I used to love bands like Free and ELO and the Rolling Stones. When Robert Plant got in touch it made perfect sense to me.
Alison Krauss
Some things feel really good to sing: there's a physical aspect, but there's more to it - a deeper place you go to.
