1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: Another big interview forty are wety Good morning, Liam? Hello, Hello,

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: how are you men? Fantastic?

3
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:17,479
Speaker 2: Sure.

4
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,240
Speaker 1: The last time you and I spoke, you were telling

5
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: me to kiss scars. Do you remember that you called

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: me and then you were just like being from myself? No? Yes,

7
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: so you told me to kiss scars. What are you

8
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: telling me to do today? That's the thing.

9
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: I'm telling you. Not to worry. That's what I'm telling

10
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 2: you today.

11
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: Okay, not to worry. But then you told me to

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: kiss scars. But that that made me worry first. And

13
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: now I'm not gonna worry anymore because this makes sense though.

14
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: But on a serious note, it's always great to chat

15
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: to you, Liam. I know that we may have seen

16
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: each other at a certain event recently. But you're such

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: a talent, my friend. You can go anywhere you want

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: to with your music. You can do whatever genre you

19
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: want to. There's not even a thing called genre anymore.

20
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: That's what I believe. By the way, So tell me

21
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: about worry. C there's something to the name of the

22
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: song I feel as well.

23
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: Definitely. So. The song was inspired by the way in

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 2: which the ocean or the sea in the Bible is

25
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: referred to as a metaphor for chaos and a metaphor

26
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 2: for doubt, so worry c So in the verse of

27
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: the song there is this atmosphere of being worried and

28
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 2: drowning in your worries, essentially drowning in an ocean of worries.

29
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: And in the chorus there is this huge contrast of

30
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: realizing that God is way above and beyond all your

31
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: problems and that sometimes acknowledging that, well, we'll get you

32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 2: to half way, halfway to overcoming those problems.

33
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: Essentially, Wow, okay leam, ok. But you know what the

34
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: thing is, I've always known that you've been involved with

35
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: the church and your faith has been such a strong

36
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: binder of your music as well, and it's great to

37
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: have a song from you that just says what it is,

38
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, That just is like, this

39
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: is a song about you know, being looked after by

40
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: your higher power. No matter what happens, no matter what

41
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: ebb and flow that the sea may offer, there's always

42
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: that stability. There's always that calm somewhere, and that calm

43
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: comes with prayer, that comes with you know, just looking up.

44
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: And I think that's that's something very very powerful and

45
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: I like to see that in I'm going to call

46
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: it in the pop industry that makes.

47
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 2: Sense, definitely, definitely, and decide that it's just also just

48
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: realizing how at the end of the day, how insignificant

49
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 2: you are. It can sound very countintuitive, yeah, but realizing

50
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: how insignificant you are would sometimes just make you realize

51
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 2: how insignificant and your problems are at the end of

52
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: the day as well.

53
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: I see what you mean there. I know it sounds

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: when you say you're insignificant, it sounds very ominous, but

55
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: I know what you mean. It's basically, you know, we're

56
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: all part of a massive journey that's ahead of us.

57
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: There are many footsteps we need to take. It's an

58
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: ocean of footsteps that we need to go in either direction.

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: And we will think about, ah, the step I took, now,

60
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: oh it's going to go downhill from here. You realize

61
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: there's so many footsteps to take. You focus on that

62
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: one footstep thinking it's the end, and it's not. And

63
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: I like that metaphor as well. This is the depth

64
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: in your music, man, it comes from us somebody like

65
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: you who is you know, just you've been busking, now

66
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: you've been into studio as well creating the music. I'm

67
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: very intrigued about your path and have you ever sat

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: down and thought like, this is what my music is

69
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: going to be about, this is where I want to

70
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: see myself playing. What are those manifestations like for you?

71
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 2: Definitely? I have sat a lot and thought about what

72
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: type of music and what type of message I would

73
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 2: like to put out in the world. And I think,

74
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: especially with my first one, I realized that I would

75
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: like to spread the message of the power of being

76
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: vulnerable and the power of vulnerability. Yes, in that us

77
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 2: as humans often shy away from being vulnerable when it

78
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: can be a great power at the end of the

79
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 2: day and a source of comfort and a source of

80
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: self acceptance through being able to share your experiences with

81
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: others and others being able to relate to you, and

82
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: just realizing that you're not alone in this journey we

83
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: call life.

84
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that because you know, we're all on

85
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: the same sea and sometimes it's filled with worry, but

86
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: you never know. The next tide may take you to prosperity.

87
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: But you've got to keep the faith. We have to man,

88
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,239
Speaker 1: that's the vibe. There you go, Look at that, Liam,

89
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: You see. This is why one day, you know, one

90
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: day we'll do a show together. It'll be like a

91
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: it'd be a nice not just like a show that

92
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: we did recently. I'm talking like, we're gonna do a

93
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: show and we're gonna talk talk people through the music,

94
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: man through the word in your music, and then you perform.

95
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: Then we have another moment where we speak to the

96
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: word of your music, then you perform. How's that that'd

97
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: be such a cool thing.

98
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 2: I like that idea. I think you yourself should get

99
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 2: into song that. I think so because you're very metaphorical

100
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 2: and in the way you speak, I must say.

101
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: You know a form. A former colleague of mine, all right,

102
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: Tarn Lamb, always said that I must be a songwriter,

103
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: And I just think that obviously, working on a radio,

104
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: you have to talk in a way that is vivid

105
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: and it's imaginative so that people don't just have this

106
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: flat this is vamkvi song like you have to you

107
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: have to really speak to color, speak to the big pictures.

108
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: And I think that's the beauty of radio as well,

109
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, and that's the beauty of songwriting because sometimes

110
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: when you listen to a song, you are sat in

111
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: a spot that the artist wants you to sit in,

112
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: and you are there. You were immersed. You smell the grass,

113
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: the flowers, the water, you feel the tears on your

114
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: own cheek like that's the beauty of writing. But yes,

115
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: if you're asking me to write you a song, Liam,

116
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: I know that's a kind of a by the bye way.

117
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: I will write you a song, all right, Okay, we're

118
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: going to do it together. But Liam, thanks a lot

119
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: for your time today, and I re hope you have

120
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 1: a beautiful Saturday. Thank you very much for the authenticity

121
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: in your faith in your music. I know it resonates

122
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: with so many people, and I know that this song

123
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: will resonate so much it could be in the future

124
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: a KFM Top forty charter. But we'll see and keep

125
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: the faith on that too. Enjoy Liam, thanks a lot

126
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: for joining my man.

127
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you for having me. I'll be waiting

128
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:44,559
Speaker 2: for that song.

129
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: I've already written a couple, so I'm going to send

130
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: you one soon. Thank you, Liam. I appreciate you. This

131
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: is worry see, a brand new song from an artist

132
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: I know is on the rise through this man's vulnerability

133
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: and authenticity. I'm loving it to read and stand by

134
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: for a song that is going to be written by

135
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: me from Liam Coves soon
