00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,600

64
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,640

00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 6: and it's great to finally be able to share it.

68
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: With everyone on your Buddy?

69
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 5: Can I ask? Because Tommy has just moved house. He

70
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 5: had to move house because the people living upstairs were

71
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 5: mad bonkers and he was just hearing these unbelievable noises

72
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 5: throughout the night. Where you live, what are your neighbors like?

73
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: For you and Tim?

74
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 5: No, but for singing like when you're rehearsing. I mean,

75
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 5: don't get me wrong, They're gonna love the sound of

76
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 5: your voice, but they're going to hear a lot of it.

77
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 6: Ah, we have thick walls, okay, And that's probably not

78
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 6: what I'm worried about them hearing you.

79
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 2: Sing coming from my apartment. I should be worried about

80
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: a lot more. God, the tragic news with Johnny Farnum

81
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: and his throat and stuff like that. You're in and

82
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: you worry so much. I mean, that is your your

83
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: gift that you've been given as you get older. How

84
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 2: do you preserve that?

85
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 6: More Anthony, It's interesting because I shared a story at

86
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 6: the show the other night for the very first time,

87
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 6: and it sort of relates to that. But in twenty seventeen,

88
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 6: I hadn't spoken about this before until Yeah, the other night,

89
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 6: I had to bleed in my throat and it wasn't

90
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 6: on my vocal cords, but I burst a vessel in

91
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 6: my throat. And it was three and a half four

92
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 6: weeks before I went on tour, so I had to

93
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 6: go in for an operation and they told me I

94
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,679
Speaker 6: couldn't speak for like three weeks, four weeks leading.

95
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: Up to it, so really it was really scary.

96
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 6: I remember like they wheeled me to the theater and

97
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 6: you know, I've got the surgeon there, and I looked

98
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 6: at him before they put the anesthetic, you know, to

99
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 6: put to sleep in, and I just said, please, don't

100
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 6: f up my throat, have up my voice, because this

101
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 6: is all I've got, you know, as much as I

102
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 6: wanted to be a landscape gardener or a real estate agent, like.

103
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 2: You know, this is all I've got is that because

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 2: you were pushing it too.

105
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 6: Much, you know, to be honest, at the time, I

106
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 6: was just really stressed, and yeah, I made myself sick

107
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 6: and I burst a vessel in my throat. And the

108
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 6: first time that I opened my mouth after that was

109
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 6: when I walked on stage in Adelaide for the first

110
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 6: show of the tour, and I just literally walked out

111
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 6: on stage and I'm like, oh, please work, please work,

112
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 6: please work.

113
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 2: You don't sound like Whitney in the Hunter Valley.

114
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 4: Please.

115
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: I heard about that.

116
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: Don't sound like meat life at the grand final.

117
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 2: Whitney at the Hunter Valley. I toured with her, you did,

118
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: of course, I was with her for that whole tour.

119
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: How was that?

120
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 2: It was interesting. Did you interact with her at all? Yeah, No,

121
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 2: she was. She was lovely to me. But the thing

122
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 2: that I, you know, took away from that is that

123
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 2: you really need good people around you.

124
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: You know.

125
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 6: I don't think that she deserved all of the ridicule

126
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 6: that she got, but you know, it was great being

127
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 6: in the presence of it, and it was an absolute privilege.

128
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 6: And I remember when she stopped past my dressing room

129
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 6: and I bought her a gift and she came back

130
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 6: and she thanked me for it, So it was really lovely.

131
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 5: Fitz and I were on a plane to l A

132
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 5: one time and I looked over and realized he was

133
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 5: watching the same thing.

134
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: We were both chunning into the Whitney Whitney in the

135
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: Houston documentary and she died of a broken heart. Yeah.
