She tells Sunday Brunch, "I'm old all of a sudden. My label was like, 'We wanna put a greatest hits out', and I'm like, 'Whoa, it's not over!' That's why I called it Chapter One.
"It's amazing to have the songs to do that but at the same time... it seems like something you do when you're done and I'm not at all, but it does kind of wrap up a decade nicely."
