The LP&#8217;s second single, &#8220;Little Miss Lovely&#8221;, can be heard below.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent interview with Dawn Osborne of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@TotalRockOnline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">TotalRock<\/a>, Quatro stated about how she chose &#8220;Freedom&#8221; to be the first single and title of the upcoming album: &#8220;I was going through the master mixes, and the album was gonna be called &#8216;Choose Yourself&#8217;, which was the top song for a long time. So I&#8217;m going through the mixes to approve, and this &#8216;Freedom&#8217;, it just kept coming out and smacking me in the face. And I went, &#8216;Okay, this is the first single, this is the title of the album.&#8217; And have you ever seen and heard a picture and a song, and a title that all says exactly the same thing? Doesn&#8217;t it scream it to you freedom?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suzi also talked about the &#8220;Freedom&#8221; album cover, saying: &#8220;Once I decided on that track for the single, I actually had a vision \u2014 [it was] so strange \u2014 a vision of this album cover and the single cover. And I couldn&#8217;t get it out of my mind. So I put out little notes to all my people who photographed me for years. I said, &#8216;Here&#8217;s what I&#8217;m looking for.&#8217; And so I have a girl in Australia who&#8217;s done me for \u2014 I don&#8217;t know \u2014 since the &#8217;80s. And she had a photograph of me from the back with my bass on, on stage. And the art team then got together and created the image around it. And it&#8217;s exactly the way I saw it in my mind&#8217;s eye. And it&#8217;s important.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Elaborating on the lyrical inspiration for &#8220;Freedom&#8221;, Suzi said: &#8220;I&#8217;m 75. I have achieved freedom in myself, in my attitude. I&#8217;ve dropped my excess baggage. I don&#8217;t have that anymore. I don&#8217;t have anything to prove. I&#8217;m comfortable in my skin. So it&#8217;s a very important personal thing. Also, in this world we live in, I say freedom \u2014 what is more precious than freedom? Nothing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After Osborne noted that Quatro still looks &#8220;about 35, 40&#8221;, Suzi concurred. &#8220;I&#8217;m 75. And you know what? I&#8217;ve always been lucky, to be honest, that I&#8217;ve always looked 10 years, at least, younger than what I am, always my whole life,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So when I was first having hits in 1973, I was 23, but I looked like I was 13. That&#8217;s just the way it&#8217;s always been. They always told me, &#8216;Your kind of face&#8217; \u2014 I&#8217;ve got a fleshy face and I&#8217;ve got a childish face, and I always wanted cheekbones, and I was always told, &#8216;When you get older, you&#8217;re gonna appreciate that so much because you&#8217;re gonna age really, really well.&#8217; [Laughs] Okay, I appreciate it now. But I never lie about my age. I say it on stage. I&#8217;m not chasing 25. And I don&#8217;t care. My secret is, I honestly don&#8217;t care. I&#8217;m 75 and I don&#8217;t care.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suzi was also asked about her retirement quote, which was included in the press materials for &#8220;Freedom&#8221;: &#8220;I will retire when I go on stage, shake my ass, and there is silence.&#8221; She said: &#8220;Well, I gotta tell you, though. That&#8217;s funny. I gave that quote when I was 35. And it was a journalist that said to me, &#8216;Oh, when are you gonna retire?&#8217; And I went, &#8216;What?&#8217; So I gave him that glib answer: &#8216;When I turn my back on the audience and shake my ass, and there&#8217;s silence.&#8217; That followed me my whole career. Everybody picks up on that quote. It&#8217;s a good quote, but then at 65, I gave a nod to 65 and I slightly altered it: &#8216;When I turn my back on the audience and my ass shakes by itself, then I&#8217;ll stop.&#8217; And now, at 75, here&#8217;s my serious quote, and I stand by this one. I won&#8217;t change it. Now when I go on stage and I don&#8217;t deliver to my standard\u2026 I will know it, even if the audience isn&#8217;t aware, &#8217;cause I&#8217;m a pro, so they probably wouldn&#8217;t know, but I would know. And then I say, &#8216;Okay.&#8217; But I&#8217;m nowhere near that yet. You can&#8217;t get rid of me yet. [Laughs]&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Since first bursting on to the scene with her classic No. 1 hit singles &#8220;Can The Can&#8221; and &#8220;Devil Gate Drive&#8221;, Quatro has sold over 55 million records worldwide and is recognised as a true rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll legend and pioneering icon who never did &#8220;gender&#8221;.She is also renowned for her acclaimed acting career, including theatre and TV series, most notably her three-season iconic role as Leather Tuscadero in &#8220;Happy Days&#8221; (for which she received second most fan mail after The Fonz).<\/p>\n<p>Her extraordinary catalog of hits includes &#8220;48 Crash&#8221;, &#8220;Can The Can&#8221;, &#8220;Devil Gate Drive&#8221;, &#8220;Daytona Demon&#8221;, &#8220;The Wild One&#8221;, &#8220;If You Can&#8217;t Give Me Love&#8221;, &#8220;She&#8217;s In Love With You&#8221;, &#8220;Rock Hard&#8221;, and the U.S. million-seller &#8220;Stumblin&#8217; In&#8221;, her duet with Chris Norman, which became a worldwide million seller again in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, she began collaborating with her son, L.R. Tuckey (producer, co-writer, guitarist),and their creative partnership now reaches its third chapter with the release of &#8220;Freedom&#8221;, their third album together.<\/p>\n<p>Suzi said in a statement: &#8220;It&#8217;s all about getting back to who you are, and it applies universally. We all wear masks to get by in this world. For me it&#8217;s all about being comfortable in your own skin, having nothing to prove to anyone, and not accepting any B.S.! This is the journey this album takes you on. Here I am, warts and all. Take it or leave it. Choose yourself\u2026and finally FREEDOM. Which also applies to the world we live in today.
