Among the many tracks on the album, Sheryl discusses how "Lullaby for Wyatt," a song about her son, " ... really informed this album. There's an urgent feeling about what's going on in the world. This song is really about, as a parent, you just want to protect your children from the pain that they're going to ultimately experience in their lives."

During the take-over Sheryl also performs songs from Detours and some of her classic hits at SIRIUS' studios. Sheryl Crow's Spectrum will kick-off on February 4th at 7 am ET and run through February 8th on The Spectrum channel 18.

Since then Sheryl Crow has sold over 30 million albums worldwide, received nine Grammy awards and collaborated with renowned artists including Kid Rock, The Rolling Stones and Willie Nelson.
