In a recent speech at the Fourth Session of the 26th Legislature – which you can view here on Facebook – Atkinson declared her support for the Saskatoon rockers in our Choose the Cover of Rolling Stone contest and urged every member of the Legislature to vote for the band.

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
