1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Hey, thanks for listening to the podcast. I want to

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: introduce you now to a good friend of mine called

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: Chanelle Davis. And we first met down at Gore. I

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: was the Bricky host there, the capital of country music.

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: It's the home of the Gold Guitar Awards, and Chanelle

6
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: was a performer for many years. She's a country muso

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: turned kids entertainer, and she's gone and released this funky

8
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: new track called Creature Groove, which brings together a whole

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: bunch of other top key we artists, the likes of

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: Tammy Nilson, fiddler Marion Burns, and even our beloved Top Twins.

11
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: So we'll hear about that song a tour that is

12
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: coming mid Canterbury's way in the new year. But first

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: on Chanell herself. She spent many years globe trotting around

14
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 1: the likes of Melbourne and Nashville. And I asked, what

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: was the trigger point for that transition from country music

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: to entertaining for kids.

17
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 2: So I was doing song challenges for myself. So when

18
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: I was over in America, I was just pushing myself

19
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 2: to write a song a day and just you know,

20
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: get better at writing through doing it, Like going to

21
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 2: the gym, I guess. And some days I'll just have

22
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: nothing to write about. And so okay, I'm going to

23
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: write a kid's song. You know that's easy, get the

24
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:12,759
Speaker 2: job done, and yeah, it's us really easy and fun.

25
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 2: I love there's just so many things to write about.

26
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 2: I just love just taking an object and being curious

27
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 2: about it. Yeah. I have a song about a Bilbie

28
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: and it's a bilbie so you don't know what a

29
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: bilby is? And I love it about my music is

30
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: that I can use music to help people learn a

31
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: Bilby is a mass soupiel that lives in Australia. Super cute.

32
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: Oh okay, this is a creature. Yeah, this is a creature.

33
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: Also, you know, I've got a song I think what

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 2: I want to you know, what you want to teach

35
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: your show people or you know, have kids learn about

36
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 2: Sometimes that's my angle. And so you know, I've got

37
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: the song about tad poles and every verse they get

38
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: a new body part, like they get the front legs

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: in the back legs. And I love it. It's like

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: a little project. I have to go and be like

41
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: which leads come first? So I go on research and

42
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: make sure I've got all my facts, right, and then

43
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: I put it together in a song. But that also,

44
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 2: you know, kids can dance and move and sing and

45
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: everyone can just be happy to you know, kids songs

46
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 2: are just so positive. I love it. And so when

47
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 2: people started liking what I was doing, that made me

48
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 2: want to do it more, because that it sucks when

49
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: no one listen. You kind of need like the two things, right,

50
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: you need you're the performer, but you need an audience.

51
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 2: And so I guess it was just really validating. And

52
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 2: then you know, with my new kids album, ins it On,

53
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 2: here has funded this project, and that was validating as

54
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: well to me, Like they were like here's here's thirty

55
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: thousand dollars, like go record your kids songs because we

56
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 2: believe in you. And I was like, oh right, gosh,

57
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: I literally made my life and just got everything. You know,

58
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: after COVID, I wasn't creating a lot having little kids.

59
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 2: That's really hard, and I didn't really have a way

60
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: to make the music. And then entered Onia came to

61
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: the party, and here we are with a new album

62
00:02:59,520 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 2: coming out.

63
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: So that first album kid album that you put out

64
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: suhal all On Friends, the Little Green Turtle and other

65
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: songs and what was that? That was That was almost

66
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: a decade ago, now right, Yeah, I just feel.

67
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: Like you really want to get that and a deckhead

68
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: Ago like, yes, I'm old. I've been making music for

69
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: a long time. That was twenty seventeen, but it's still

70
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: getting a lot to plays on Spotify and recently Run

71
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: Little Mouse went over a million plays. Oh wow, I

72
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: know I started getting checked from Spotify. I'm like, oh,

73
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 2: this is good.

74
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,559
Speaker 1: Oh really, so that's the Threeshold.

75
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so if you go over a million, you're

76
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: getting money in your bed counsel.

77
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: Oh, but we won't break because it's probably like five

78
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: bucks or something right to pay for a coffee.

79
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 2: No, one month, it was like fifteen hundred dollars.

80
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: Oh there's not nothing.

81
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: Well, you know you can do stuff with that. Yeah,

82
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: I'm not complaining.

83
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then the real reward must be, you know,

84
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: feedback from people around the world. Did I see on

85
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: your socials that there was a random school in the

86
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: middle of France that had one of your songs as

87
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: part of a school production.

88
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 2: Yes, and their little French uniforms. Oh my gosh, my

89
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: heart just fell out of my chest.

90
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: How does that even happen?

91
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: I just found. That's the beauty of Spotify ocase, so

92
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: people just find your music and they said, can we

93
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 2: sing it? And I was, of course, don't even have

94
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 2: to ask, please send me a video. And maybe six

95
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 2: months later they practiced it all, you know, all year,

96
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: and then that they send me this cute video, so

97
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 2: that that was really special. And know that, oh my gosh,

98
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: people are actually listening and using my music and that's

99
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 2: the aim of the game.

100
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: That fills the sippy cup.

101
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm so false, just like, okay, cool,

102
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: I can keep going, you know, can you go with this?

103
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: So that first album, am I correctly saying? You put

104
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: it together when you didn't have kidlets of your own?

105
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: Correct? So this is pre kids.

106
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: But I'm always.

107
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: Around kids because I teach music, I was running a

108
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 2: play group. I don't know, I just I am a

109
00:04:58,839 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 2: kid person.

110
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: So so here's your approach to songwriting for kids changed

111
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,679
Speaker 1: in the sense that it used to be, Yeah, let's

112
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: make a messin the lound is going to be fun too.

113
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: For God's sake, get your shoes on. We needed to

114
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: leave ten minutes ago.

115
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 2: Yes, I have a Nephie Change song that needs to

116
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: come out at some point, and it's all about like

117
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: no one wants to get up in the middle of

118
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: the night and do.

119
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 1: Their nephi change.

120
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 2: It's just such a good song. And the chorus is

121
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: like sleep, everybody wants to sleep, but this baby keeps

122
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: waking up. And then there's a slight little chat in

123
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: the middle in the bridge that's like you do it. No,

124
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 2: I did it last time. So I'm nott songs like that.

125
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 2: I just almost I just need to make a lot

126
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: more music quick, so oh my god, it comes out.

127
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 2: Get into the next album.

128
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 1: What about this like a kid's album for the parents

129
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 1: about the journey of parenting, Like I have no idea

130
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: what's for dinner tonight and it's already five thirty pm.

131
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: Or I've got that I'm in the spare room. I

132
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 2: can't remember who was in the spare room. But there's

133
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: that song. And then there's also the Missing Sock song,

134
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 2: but that has swearing in it, So.

135
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: There would be a fair dosa swearing in most of

136
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: mine if I were put it together, especially the one

137
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: about the dad who's pretending to sleep, you know, as

138
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: the baby's up in the middle of the night. That's

139
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: that's a banger.

140
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: Oh Yeah, that's I really feel that. No, I think

141
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 2: I'm going to consult you on that album project Blue

142
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 2: give me all your life experience.

143
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: This is a real opportunity of you. Yeah, the dad

144
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: and the toilet for half an hour, because it's time

145
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: to himself. I can see that one being set to

146
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: like a Metallica riff or something that's so well talking

147
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: collabs back to something that has been created. Now, so

148
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: we've got this this new album out and it's something

149
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: to do about groove, grooving, creatures, creature groove and.

150
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: A cool little country song that just got really big.

151
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: Were actually finished the song with Daniel singing it. Daniel

152
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 2: is in Chanel and Friends. He's longtime collaborator. We actually

153
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: mixed at the Email T Songwriting Awards and I came

154
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: first and he came second, which I never let him forget.

155
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: That's a fun partnership.

156
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you know it got romantic and then anyway,

157
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: that's the whole nother story. But we're still very close

158
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 2: and we write together, and so we're done. We wrote

159
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 2: Creature Groups together. He sang it, and then I could

160
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: just hear Tammy's voice and though, oh my gosh, imagine

161
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: if she was on it, and so I asked her

162
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 2: and she said yes, and so she jumped on and

163
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: my producers going okay, that's enough. I said, oh, I

164
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 2: think I can hear the Top Twins and so I

165
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 2: had also marrieds.

166
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: And they were recording in the room next door.

167
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: Or I could just hear it in my head when

168
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: I was listening in the car and going, this song

169
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 2: is not finished, and I just thought, why not? You know,

170
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: Tammy said yes, And I had another song that Susie

171
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: Cater had jumped on, and I thought, actually, people are

172
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: really willing to do with me, so why not just

173
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 2: go for it and ask And so marrying usked Linda

174
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 2: for me, and then Maryon sent the text message saying yep,

175
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: me and Jewels are and I literally died. I was

176
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: like you would sitting down the kitchen and I was

177
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 2: like I can't believe Linda, and like they just said

178
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 2: yes and they want to sing on my song, and

179
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 2: I just I'll never get over it.

180
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: Actually, Oh my gosh. So they what was that?

181
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: Like?

182
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: What are they like?

183
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 2: They are exactly how you would think they are, just

184
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 2: themselves and how you know, my favorite is that camp

185
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: mother can't leader. They're just so funny us falling over

186
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 2: in the studio laughing that they just come out as

187
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: the funniest jokes. And then like Linda kind of bosses

188
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: jewels around a bit, like just like how they you know,

189
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: you'd think, and it's just it was so fun. I

190
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: was holding my breath the first time and I had

191
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: to call Linda and I was like, do I call

192
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 2: her Dane? Yeah, Like I was like, no, don't be,

193
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 2: don't be silly, don't make it weird, don't be Yeah,

194
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 2: I like that looking at her in that name lumber

195
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 2: and I said it like ten minutes just trying to

196
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 2: press the button and I just barely could breathe. And

197
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 2: so anyway, they said, yeah, we want to go to

198
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: Stebbings and I said I'll meet you there. So I

199
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 2: drove up from Papamala and we recorded the song and

200
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 2: now I hear it is just it's such a party.

201
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: It's a it's a country howdown party, and I'm so

202
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 2: proud and yeah, it's like a life highlight that I'll

203
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 2: never ever get over it. Oh, I bet that happened.

204
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: You can hear Tammy Nielsen refer to it as a

205
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: hoe down throw down during the song and whatnot. And

206
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: then every now and then, like while Dan singing away,

207
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: you can just hear a yeahoo and a year, which

208
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: I assume is Linda and Jewels in the background. Was

209
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: any of that scripted or is it just them having

210
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: some fun?

211
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: That is them having a pun? I said, I said,

212
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 2: I just want you to add lib and just be

213
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 2: like this, and they wore kind of looking at me

214
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: like okay, and then they kind of did what I thought,

215
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: and then they added their own things. And then when

216
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 2: Jewels goes tammy you get your clothes back on, I

217
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: so funny, like we were just actually wetting ourselves laughing.

218
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 2: So yeah, they just add laving because they are you know,

219
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 2: they're the top twes that they're just naturally very funny

220
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 2: and it was just easy for them and they were

221
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: laughing like we were editing it together. And then when

222
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 2: Jewels goes up and come ready from out putting right

223
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 2: at the end, it's just so random, but they're humor.

224
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 2: I just love it so much, so.

225
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: Do so yourself. This is part of a wider album.

226
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: Is all of that dropping tomorrow Friday? Or is it

227
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: just the album?

228
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,520

Speaker 2: a glowing bung that has every like word for bum

232
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 2: in it and he is so funny too. Oh my gosh.

233
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 2: We have some such great people in New Zealand. Yeah

Speaker 2: and yeah, so there's some other great collaborations too. So yeah,

00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 2: I guess watch out for the album coming and then

236
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: I'm going to be performing my butt off all over

237
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 2: the country for the entire year.

238
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: I had such a special experience Chanelle Davis. It would

239
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: have been about six months ago that mister Yippitty Dino

240
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: the knee nor fire engine Man came to town. And

241
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: I can't say that we Ellis was, you know, a

242
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: particular fan of his before that. But it didn't matter

243
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: because we went along to the New Life Church here

244
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: in Ashburton and it was all fun and she was

245
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: dancing like I've never seen her dance before. She was

246
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: singing along to lyrics that she had no idea what

247
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: it was. We bought the book afterwards, and you know,

248
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: we get the selfie and whatnot. So I'd love to

249
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: replicate that experience. Are you're going to be coming anywhere

250
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 1: near Ashburton on your travels.

251
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll be going everywhere and definitely coming to see you.

252
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 2: I need that you take dance classes because I think

253
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit wouldn't dancing is not my thaying,

254
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,599
Speaker 2: but oh I need to I need to take She

255
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 2: get better at that. But it is just.

256
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: There's arms and there's waists being twisted in ways. So

257
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: I didn't think it would put me in hospital all anyway, they're.

258
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: So thindy, they's so they're so cool. You just need

259
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 2: to hang out with kids, Moore, I think. And then

260
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 2: life is life is better. That's what it's all about.

261
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you love winding them up in the sense

262
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: you know there might be a pause between songs and oh,

263
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: where's where's this critic gone? He's over there, he's behind you.

264
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: You know what I do is because I've got the

265
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 2: run little mouse song. I hired a piece of cheese

266
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 2: before the show and then I tell everyone to find

267
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 2: it and literally they could plain. And there was one

268
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 2: once a Taradale library and there would have been two

269
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 2: hundred people in there, and I say go find it

270
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 2: and Larry. The library is like shaking with people running

271
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: around and the librarians look like they're gonna die library.

272
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 2: I've also been banned from the Dunedin Library. I just

273
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: remember that.

274
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: Wow, would you do that?

275
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:57,760

00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 1: But what a badge of honor that you've set the bar.

281
