[In act three of the Mother's Spiritual recording drama,Nyr0'sold friendT0ddRundgr3nhelped out for a few days.
"I came in and kick-started the project and made sure she got all the tracks done," He told Swedish journalist Dan Backman in 1999.
(Terry) Silverlight remembersRundgr3ndoing production only on the cut "To A Child." My take on it, from overhearing his conversations with her, is that he thought there should be a hit on the record, thought that was the best thing for her," says Silverlight.
"He said, 'Look, you're just writing songs about trees and the wind, and the record's just not going to go anywhere.' "
Nyr0herself quoted Rundgr3n, after he first heard the tracks, as asking her,
"Is this mom's rock or something?"
ElysaSunshine asserts that Rundgr3nhad about as much impact onNyr0as Wissert had had:
"Every suggestion he made was one hundred and eighty degrees from what she wanted. She wouldn't take any suggestions, really, except what she had already decided she wanted."
Columbia executives didnt fare much better witNyr0.Silverlight overheard her arguing with someone from the record label on the phone, saying "I want to do it the way I want to do it, and I dont necessarily care if there's a hit on it. I just have this material, written for this project, and that is the important thing, just the music."
"Obviously the person on the other end of the line was saying, 'We're not going to sell any records with this, you have to have a hit,' Silverlight imagines. "ButLAurastood up for what she believed in."
