"I'm still going": Singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow reflects on her decades-long career
CBSN
After more than two decades in the music industry, singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow, 60, says she's "still going" despite the hardships she's endured. The "All I Wanna Do" and "Soak Up the Sun" singer says it's the times she's felt underestimated that motivate her.
"There have been moments where I've felt like I've really been not taken seriously, that I've been overlooked, that I've been an outsider into the cool club," she told CBS News senior culture and senior national correspondent Anthony Mason from her home in Nashville, Tennessee. "And maybe that's why I'm still going, you know?"
Crow's first break came in the late 1980s when she performed with music icon Michael Jackson on his "Bad" tour. Jackson's late music executive Frank DiLeo offered to make Crow a star, but in a 2021 interview with the Independent, Crow revealed that DiLeo had sexually harassed and threatened her.
