Gwen Stefani has been talking about the collaboration with Keane Man Tim Rice-Oxley that appears on the singer's recently released second solo album, 'The Sweet Escape'. Stefani describes the track, 'Early Winter', as "one of the most beautiful songs ever" and says that Rice-Oxley is "Superman-talented".
Explaining how the song came about, she said: "I wanted a ballad. I wanted to write 'Eyes Without A Face' or 'Killing Me Softly' or 'Time After Time', and he was like, 'OK, Cyndi Lauper, got it,' like he was taking my order. It was so beautiful and addictive. I didn't really attack it because it was kind of done, lyrics and everything".
