and if i could you know that i would fly away with you

i'm currently about a third of the way through anne murray's biography; highlights of the first 100 pages include:

-how she was a big drunk in high school
-how she went to university to become a gym teacher (favourite sport: ladies golf)
-how, when she was having creative differences with her label, she acquired her first contract until false pretences, set it on fire, and then moved and changed her phone number
-how, when brian mulroney was courting her in university, she would get her roommate to pretend she wasn't home when he called, because she thought he was a total drip
-how she bought a mink fur in vegas, lied about it at customs when coming back into canada, and was the subject of an rcmp investigation
-how she busted her bandmates out of the hospital when they were overdosing on heroin
-how she dropped by sex clubs in sweden
-how, when lenny breau was in her band, she spent most evenings talking him down from assorted acid trips
-how dusty springfield, one of her BFFs, repeatedly tried to get into her pants

and there's so much left!
