Cal Vid's video: Sheryl Crow Olivia Rodrigo If It Makes You Happy Rock Hall 2023

At the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony on November 3, 2023, Sheryl Crow and Olivia Rodrigo kicked off the 2023 live performances in New York with a duet of her 1996 hit "If It Makes You Happy." Entertainment Weekly article: All Sheryl Crow wants to do is make music — and she passed down that advice to Olivia Rodrigo. The two singer-songwriters performed together at the ceremony commemorating Crow's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on Friday, and before the event, the "Soak Up the Sun" singer told Entertainment Tonight how she's mentored Rodrigo. "I said, 'If you can, just write down one sentence every day of what happened during that day, because you will someday look back [at] this, and try to remember all the things,'" Crow recalled. Additionally, she also advised the "Vampire" singer to focus on the professional instead of the gossip: "The other thing [I told Rodrigo] is to just stay in the work and stay out of the chatter," she said. "That's a major thing." Crow and Rodrigo kicked off Friday's ceremony with a performance of the former's 1996 hit "If It Makes You Happy," which they had previously performed together at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville in September. The elder singer-songwriter praised her collaborator's new album, Guts. "I got to sort of lift her up a little bit because she's got a new record," Crow said. "I know how hard the second record is, the sophomore. You're competing with the success of your first record, and she nailed it." Later in the ceremony, Crow performed numerous other tunes, playing her song "Everyday Is a Winding Road" alongside Peter Frampton and Stevie Nicks, joining Willie Nelson for his songs "Crazy" and "On the Road Again," and jamming with Elton John, Chris Stapleton, and Brittany Howard in a performance of the Band's "The Weight." Crow's friend Laura Dern inducted her into the Hall of Fame. "There's a reason we feel the connections we do to Sheryl's storytelling: She lets you in with an open vulnerability and a reverence and love that guides you to access yourself in ways you haven't before," Dern said in her induction speech, per Pitchfork. "She guides you home, and she also helps you reflect on those way-stations we call home in our lives. From teacher to backup singer, this hardest-working woman I know evolved into the profound artist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer we love." Missy Elliott, Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, George Michael, Willie Nelson, Rage Against the Machine, and the Spinners were inducted into the 2023 Rock Hall in a celebration at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
