   The worry was that we would destroy the legacy of the band by making an album that wasn't up to standard, once we had gone through all the demos that Dolores and I had worked on and decided that we had such a strong album we knew it would be the right thing and the best way that we could honor Dolores.

4. Noel Hogan:

   When we realized how strong the songs were, that was the deciding factor really... There was no point... trying to ruin the legacy of the band, it was obvious that Dolores wanted this album done because when you hear the album, you hear the songs and how strong they are, and she was very, very excited to get in and record this.

Her babies, she called them and to have that hopefully long after we're gone... that's all any band can wish for.
