Lisa Marie Presley
Subtitle:
Lisa's newest album was well received by fans and critics alike. But why did a person who has avoided the spotlight release two albums? Is it a challenge to her? Lisa exposes what's going on behind the scenes.
DM) You said once that your first album wasn't made to be a pop success but because you enjoyed it.
LP) Yes, well I managed to get a bit of a fan base and they wanted more of it. If it wasn't for them I don't know if I would have done a second album.
DM) You were at the Stone Pony when you noticed this?
LP) Yes, It was a night off and I felt intimidated at first. I wanted to pay my dues and open. I didn't want to be a headliner yet. It was a little harsh for me. It wasn't my favorite experience but it was good for me to do. I knew a lot of people were there for curiosity and I knew I had to work really hard to win over the crowd every night. I didn't want to have to prove myself to the crowd and I wanted to be able to enjoy it.
DM) When did it switch from work to enjoying it?
LP) When I headlined, when I did my first tour.
DM) Was your first headline nerve-wracking in a way?
LP) No, because they loved the music. They loved my record and they get so into it that it really grew and came together in the end. I have to say it was the exchange that happened. It was the letters from the fans
