Pope co-wrote the hit song “High School Confidential” for her band Rough Trade in 1980. It was one of the most sexually explicit songs in pop music.

We talk about her songwriting process, her most recent recording "Music for Lesbians" and her book "Anti-Diva" a no-holds-barred look at her adventures in the music scene – on the concert stage, in the recording studio, and in the bedroom.
