Sheryl Crow was one of the more popular artists when Carly Smithson's album was recorded, so I am interested on how Carly felt working with her. Ryan Seacrest should have this as one of his interview questions for Carly.

Dear Carly:

I can see you becoming the shock elimination this year, so just enjoy the ride, do your best, and get as many new fans as possible with your vocal calisthenics. And please sing "Just Missed the Train"!

Love,
Rickey
