@lynn200 - actually what she said was: "Sure, the song made me money.. But I have to confess it was never a favorite of mine. Never liked it, never liked singing it... I almost never perform it..... It's just that I didn't like being cast in the role of the Great Earth Mother, the gal you come to for comfort and easy sex."
