These songs are my version of that \u2013 they\u2019re all about my life\u2026well, the parts that happen when the kids are in bed and my husband and I get into the boudoir.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is definitely the heaviest stuff I\u2019ve ever recorded,\u201d Lita says.  I\u2019ve evolved and matured as a person and so has my music.

It\u2019s almost like the stuff they say about twins &#8212; we\u2019re always finishing each others sentences and doing the same things musically.
