Sometimes, you pick up the phone and call your daughter. Sometimes, you need to hire one of the former members of All 4 One to pen a song for her.
Michael Lohan has commissioned Delious Kennedy, one of the members of the R&B ensemble to write and perform a track dedicated to Lindsay Lohan.
The song will be a companion piece of sorts to Lindsay's 2005 track "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)." Remember when she sang?
Michael's looking to start 2011 on a good note.
"It's about a talented, beautiful young lady who grows in our hearts. She is badgered by paparazzi, cut down by the media ... She will wilt, but when she falls, I will always be there to pick her up and put her pedals back on," says MiLo.
Poignant, are we wrong?
Entitled "My Rose," the song is a dance/club track with a vibe like Usher or Lady Gaga. Kennedy recorded the song last week, and MiLo just "loved it."
The chorus goes something like this: "The girl is like a rose garden. She falls back, springs forth and grows stronger with thorns." Deep, moving stuff.
Just for fun, here's Lindsay on "Confessions of a Broken Heart" ...
