No, I ran into an awards show a 68 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 3: few years ago, but I didn't really know her. But 69 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 3: this song came about and she was just the first 70 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 3: voice I heard in my head and thought she would 71 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 3: just crush this thing. So I got a hold of 72 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 3: her and sent her the song and she hit me 73 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: back immediately, just loved the song and was up to 74 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 3: doing it. And of course COVID hit and they just 75 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 3: drag everything down for a few months and nothing happened, 76 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 3: and finally she got to sing on it. But she 77 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 3: had to do it out at her place in California, 78 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: least it all together butt it And the first time 79 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 3: I heard her on the song, I just couldn't believe it. 80 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 3: She did things to the song that weren't in there originally. 81 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: It was so good.
