Cory Monteith helped me to make my album: Lea Michele

'Glee' star Lea Michele said her boyfriend Cory Monteith, who died of heroin and alcohol overdose in July last year, helped make her debut album.
The 27-year-old actor said Monteith guided her decide on a direction for her album and made suggestions as to how it should sound, reported Contactmusic.
"I'd sit with Cory and we'd jot down tons of notes about things we wanted to change. I was lucky to have such amazing love. This album is the story of my past two years," she said.
After Cory's untimely passing, Michele recorded one final song, 'You're Mine', which she dedicated to the actor.

Michele said singing on 'Glee' prepared her for her pop career as they recorded so many versions of other people's songs for the show.
"I've been singing since I was eight, but I really got hooked on the studio from 'Glee'. We've recorded 600 numbers now. I was ready," she said.
