Carly's Billboard Q&A
The full thing is here. Below is a little bit about Ultimate High. I did some of my record with Steve and I did some of my record with Gregg Alexander, who had just come off of MCA as a member of the New Radicals. The label thought he would be good for me. I wanted to do the pop rock kind of thing and he was really into that and his sound was happening at the time. Gregg and Danielle really allowed me to write a lot, so I ended up writing on four songs on the record. When I worked with them, it was this crazy musical environment. I had a different creative vibe in me. I wrote mostly with Danielle and Nick Lashley. He had that real rough guitar sound. They really helped me with songwriting. I'd written before, but I didn't really understand what I was doing. I wrote music from a very early age. I look back on the songs now and obviously they were terrible but I was young. made me understand how to write a song.

I really enjoyed reading that interview, thanks for posting it =)

Thanks for the post. I always like to hear what's up with Carly!

Wow, what a coincidence! Carly's wants to get a back tattoo removed...and I'm in the process. Just seemed funny at the moment, her comment, "The first is always the worst." So true! :lol:
