“The two that everybody’s kind of like real emotional about,” she said. “I’m like everybody’s all in their feelings, but this whole CD, that’s why it’s called ‘Labor Of Love’ because it’s the most intimate Shelly you will get in all of my career because I’m speaking about different forms of love whether it’s love of the person you’re with, a love that I have for my stepdaughter, a love that I experienced in heartbreak. I mean it’s just all different forms.”
