It was me. She finally got me outta her dreams and ran me over with her car. She was my American queen, we shared the same dream, but when the going gets tough, the tough gets going

[@TheDizzleHawke]

Did she leave Suddenly? How long were you her Loverboy?

[@zyguit]

that's tragic I hope you are ok

Me too!

Did you... did she... I'm not very good at this

[@enatp6448]

I don't think her band members signed up for this kind of conversation.

[@paulmcwilliams1709]

My Favorite Mistake is my favorite Sheryl Crow song. I bought her Greatest Hits CD because the song was on it. I LOVE SHERYL CROW! ❤😍😘

[@pingfunk]

In about 3 years we'll find out it was Pete Davidson

[@djratino]

I always thought it was Eric Clapton. I have the DVD of some of her concert footage. They've played it together, so honestly I thought it was him.

[@suz871]

Definitely my favorite Sheryl Crow song. I think just about everyone has a favorite mistake. Sheryl is lucky to have gotten over hers because I still haven’t gotten over mine and it’s been quite some time now. My reason for staying with the guy as long as I did was thinking I could actually change him and eventually trust him one day. That never happened though, unfortunately

[@kevinwalsh4652]

Do some research, two of her ex boyfriends killed themselves, why is that?

She dated clapton from 1998 to 2000 and the song came out in 1998 so it's most likely Clapton

[@michaelorlando4761]

The song came out in 1998, but it was probably written a year or two before then.
