Speaking of “Simple Pleasures,” she said, “we were almost done with a session and we were just sitting back. We were just talking. We wrote that song last year and we were just talking about the simple things in life and it went from there. In 20 minutes the song was done, and we didn’t think anything of it until this whole virus and everything happening in our world.”
The sensational singer sensationalizes her listeners as she describes the ease she feels in the presence of her man.
