1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Okay. So when I was reading about you, just in 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: preparation for talking to you, the first thing that I 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: thought I was like, oh my god, he has three kids. 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: How are you surviving? Well, Um, we are. I feel 5 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: like we've been really fortunately. I've got a little farm 6 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: that it's about twenty minutes away from the house. Yeah, 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 1: and you know, we had always planned on building there 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: and we just hadn't been able to get to that yet. 9 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: But still it's a place to go. And like even 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: if I just sometimes I'll just give her a break, 11 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: I'll just get the kids to take them for a ride, 12 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: and takes us twenty minutes to get there, go right 13 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: around a little bit, and they come back and I'm 14 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 1: gone for a couple of hours. The house I got 15 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: the house, Sarah hasn't in it. And then she does 16 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: the same thing. But you know, um, you know for 17 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,959 Speaker 1: sure is uh testing, you know, that's a nice way 18 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: to say it. I feel like it's definitely questing. But 19 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: you know, we're you know, we could we could be 20 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: stuck in an apartment like in a big city, be somewhere. 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: And so I'm thankful for them, thankful that, you know, 22 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: I think about those those folks that are going through 23 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: that a lot. I think about them a lot, and 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: so I'm really just thankful, um to be where we are. 25 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: And uh, I mean it's still been a challenge, but 26 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: I thought, you know, we're not complaining, We're we're definitely 27 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: uh definitely been trying to take advantage of the positive 28 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: sides of everything. Yeah, totally. I think the space and 29 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: getting outside is huge, right, Like actually having that farm 30 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: is a huge for you guys. So are you helping 31 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: it all with the homeschooling situation show, Yeah, some of 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: the stuff that you know, um, if it's like kind 33 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: of yeah, okay, busted, there are things that come along 34 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: every now and then that that she's like, I can't 35 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: remember how to do I know. I'm like, I'm like, 36 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: I know, so I have to say, I mean kind 37 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: of give it a second kind of a glance to 38 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: kind of brush back up on it. Yeah, you know, 39 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: but uh, she has really kind of done been a 40 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: little overwhelming for her because uh, she's kind of did 41 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: it on her own. You know. Folks are doing like 42 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: some home learning, like let's do some learn about some 43 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: real stuff, you know, and recently the school's kind of 44 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: sent in like this whole syllabus and all this stuff, 45 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: and like it's pretty in depth, and it's like, you know, 46 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: twenty emails in the road. Get a little overwhelmed with that, 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: just that daunting first thing. But we kind of broke 48 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: it down a little bit yesterday and it's not gonna 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: be quite as bad as I think. I was able 50 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: to calm her down about it a little bit. But 51 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: you know, we've also been learning life, you know, things 52 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: that are it's like I don't have to I haven't 53 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: had the opportunity really to be home enough to go 54 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: do things like get on that form and like teach 55 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: Dakota how to drive a stick shop, how to hook 56 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: up a trailer, how to change the tire, you know, 57 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: and like just some things that that they're out there 58 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: working with me, you know, we're but they also are 59 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: having fun doing it and they're you know, learning to 60 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: just real life kind of that task. Yeah, a lot 61 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: of people probably never do learn and maybe it's not 62 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: like necessity, but like when I was growing up, it 63 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: teaches you common sense things, and that teaches you to 64 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: be able to figure stuff out on your home later 65 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: in life, you know. And and so that's kind of 66 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: how I've been looking at it toe So that's the 67 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: University of Lee. It sounds like that sounds pretty good though. 68 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but my boyfriend and 69 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: I are happy hours keep getting a little bit earlier 70 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: and earlier after homeschool. Is that happening at your house? Yeah, 71 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: it's definitely not a time to uh not been a 72 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: great time to say, Okay, I'm gonna take off the 73 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: drinking right Yeah, nobody's doing that right now. What else 74 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: do you have? You found yourself doing anything just out 75 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: of the ordinary to pass the time. Well, um, you know, 76 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: we always got it in my little my little girl, 77 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: she is like a freak about the hot tub. She's two, 78 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: she's two years old. We got a little hot tob 79 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: of outside the pool and I usually come home on 80 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: the road and we get out there. I was kind 81 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: of the only one sharing on the forum a whole lot. 82 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: She'll get out to the sunshine, but she didn't have 83 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: hot tub. Like now, it's like every single morning the 84 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: first thing she wanted to do that. So we've spent 85 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 1: we've spent a good a bit time. I'm not a 86 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: time in the hot tub recently. Uh and uh, but man, No, 87 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: it's kind of the same stuff that I I did do, 88 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: but I just didn't get a lot of enough time 89 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: to do it. So like grilling and um, you know, 90 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: always had to rush because I was home for one 91 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: day or you know, I'll be home for a day 92 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: and a half. So um, well, yeah, like I said, 93 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: it's just been random things that like like we built 94 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: a raft yesterday out of some old bamboo, and like 95 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: we tied up together with some wax stray and just 96 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: you know, projects, little things like that that are fun 97 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: for them. Some of them are actual work, and I'm 98 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: get done. I'm like, oh, you're accomplishing some things right 99 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: around the farmer to come back with two trash bags 100 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: a little trash find it whoever you mean? So uh, 101 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: I mean, nothing too different, just more of the more 102 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: of the stuff and more in depth stuff. Like it's like, 103 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: you know, to be honest with you, it's like even 104 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: one of the best parts of this is that the 105 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: fact that you know, yes, we are kind of stuck 106 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: and at all times with the kids, but I'm also 107 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: getting to know my kids even better. It's like, you know, 108 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: when you really you start to notice like it you know, 109 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: if you your patients gets gets tested. Then you go, okay, 110 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: now let me teach myself how you know. And and 111 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: so I think that this is all said and done, 112 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: so many people are gonna appreciate so many little things. 113 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: And I mean that list goes on and on and on. 114 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: And one of those things, you know, for me, is 115 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: getting down their level and really really getting to know 116 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: who who they are at heart. You know that they're see, 117 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: my kids are different ages. You know, it's eleven and 118 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: six and two, and so when when a child is 119 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: really so young, you know, you do fun stuff with them, 120 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: and you know you have your little moment with them. 121 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: But like when you're spending all day every day with him, 122 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: you know, you you just and naturally dig deeper. You know, yeah, 123 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: you have to write there's there's They've always obviously had 124 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: different personalities and things, but now now it just feels like, 125 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm kind of getting on a whole 126 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: another level. So I'm thankful for this time with them. 127 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: I love that mentality too, because it really does stretch you. 128 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure as a parent, as a person, you're learning 129 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: a lot about them and also about yourself. Yes, that 130 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: is that is very true and you know, even then 131 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: in the professional side of things, you know, it's like, 132 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: I guess I've been working so hard for so long, 133 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: and then that now granted I've still been doing I've 134 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: having to kind of figure out other things to do, 135 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: which has been kind of uncomfortable, trying to do all 136 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,559 Speaker 1: the stuff online and trying to learn how to play 137 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,559 Speaker 1: music like in this this capacity and and just stay 138 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: really been in some way, shape or form. But but 139 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I've I've learned a lot about 140 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: the fact that I have almost an issue like I 141 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: have to get up and do something or else I'm 142 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: and so I'm learning to be able to just sit still, 143 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: to be still taking a moment and like and uh so, yeah, 144 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: definitely learning stuff about myself positive innation. Yeah for sure. 145 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: Well let's talk a little bit about the work stuff, 146 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: because you know, every artist that I've talked to you, 147 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: it was so bizarre just the way our industry essentially 148 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: disappeared in about a week's time. You know, Um, I know, 149 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: you were nominated for the Single of the Year with 150 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: the A c M S and the A c M 151 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: S kind of went away, which was weird for your 152 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: song rumor. So was that a huge bummer for you 153 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: or were you able to kind of just take it 154 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: in stride. Man, I take that in stride, I mean 155 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: I personally. I mean, there's the awards shows are very cool. Yeah, 156 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: they really have changed some lives, like once you're on 157 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: there and maybe singing or something that really gives you 158 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: a lot of artists have had a career, big boosts 159 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: in their careers because they had a chance to be 160 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: on TV and a lot of things like that. But 161 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: I just kind of take those awards with I mean, 162 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm so I feel like it's a success of what 163 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: I do has just been the fact that I get 164 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: to get paid to be on the road making music 165 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: and producing music and writing songs. That's my that's my gift. 166 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: And so the ward shows are always just kind of 167 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: extra for me, you know. And and um, and so 168 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: I totally take that and straight. That wasn't really a bummer. 169 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: In fact, it was kind of nice to be home 170 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: and not have to go fly out to Vegas and 171 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: old for day, you know what I mean, It's we 172 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: had we just had more time at home. And I 173 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: am that it all boils down to that a lot 174 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: of times with this word, but like I said, I've been. 175 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: You know, I have a record that I'm finishing now, 176 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: so and it's still do if I'm trying to get 177 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: it out this year, it's still doing like four weeks. 178 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Look in my house. I'm having to 179 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: do some old school engineering like I grew up doing, 180 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: and get vocals done and get stuff done in my 181 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: house to send over to get some songs you know, finished. Right, 182 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: So I've been. There's been two sides of this, you know, 183 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: not working. But I think I've been working. I swear 184 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: sometimes I think I'm working twice as hard. Yeah, it's 185 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: just a different it's a different balance, I think for sure. 186 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: So your songwriting is such a big part of your career. 187 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you write all your stuff, but you've also 188 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: written for huge artists like Tim McGraw, Arth Brooks, can 189 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: you Chesney And obviously you have the huge hit crazy 190 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: Girl by that was sung by Eli Young band. So 191 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: are you writing still or how how would that work 192 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: at home? Yeah? You know, I love to write at home. 193 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: I don't I never really got For the last years, 194 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 1: I've been writing more on the road because that's been 195 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: on the road the hole, Right, do you come home 196 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: In fact, I build a studio on my bus so 197 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: that when I'm gone, I'm getting that writing in that 198 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: studio work done, so that when I did get home 199 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: for that day or two that week, I wasn't going 200 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: back to work. And so it's been nice to be 201 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: at home and get to get back with a lot 202 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: of co writers and things I just haven't really been 203 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: able to connect with over the last few years. Um, 204 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: but I kind of halted my songwriting here because of 205 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: this whole trying to get this record done in the 206 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: next month, you know, right the songs I got, play 207 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: songs I need.

How 231 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: so tell us more, Well, I mean, you know, so 232 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: the song is just simple. It feels good. You one 233 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: of them girls. It peels off the light label. You know, 234 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: you're it's like this strong, kind of minded, simple, not 235 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: too wild, kind of down to earth girls what the 236 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: song is all about. But it just feels good, right, Yeah, 237 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: But it went to another level with the with the video. 238 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: We took her to where she's really a hero. I 239 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: mean she's she's literally a firefighter. She's a single mom, 240 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: but she's still like fun and like she still gets 241 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: through and she doesn't complain about I mean, she's just 242 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: a kind of like a superwoman in this in this video, 243 00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: and it really just uh, it celebrates first responder, just 244 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: celebrates strong confident women, you know, but but simple, you know, 245 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: and not not trying to trying to trying too hard 246 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: to do anything. You know. She was dressed kind of 247 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: just chill, you know, jeans and a flannel shirt and 248 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: like we didn't really do a bunch of makeup or 249 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: anything like that. We kept it very and so she 250 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: just seems like the coolest ship that you just want 251 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: to go hang out with, you know, you just want 252 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: to go hang with. And like, um, so it took 253 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: it to another level. I mean she helps pull up 254 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: pull up you know, an old man out of a 255 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: burning car, like I mean, it's a whole another and 256 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: then she's back home with her little girl that she's 257 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: a single mother too. And so it's pretty powerful actually 258 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: to be such a kind of just down the middle 259 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: fun song. We we took the video and really gave 260 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: it a story, a true story, and I love doing 261 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: that with videos, making them something completely beyond or different 262 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: than what that song actually says. Sometimes, you know, everybody 263 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: can imagine, you know, a normal video what the song saying, 264 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 1: just do that. But I just wanted to do something 265 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: different with it. And we've gotten a lot of great 266 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: feedback on the video itself too, so that's been that's 267 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: been fun. But yeah, I mean, it was just a 268 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: song that the night before I recorded. I had a 269 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: date set and we were going to and record three songs, 270 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: and we were one of those songs we figured was 271 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: our single, and we went in except the night before 272 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: I got a wild hair at ten o'clock and I said, 273 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: I just feel like I want to write for some reason. 274 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: So I went in, call my buddies up. We at 275 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: four o'clock that morning, finished the song and had a 276 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: work tape one and we were supposed to be in 277 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: the studio at nine for these other songs. I played 278 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: it at five o'clock to Warner for my two co 279 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: co producers and they flipped out and we cut it first. 280 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: We cut the other songs off the list, and that's 281 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 1: what was our first single. Oh oh my god. So 282 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: that didn't happened very much.

I love that too, 285 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: because I think a lot of times, um, once you 286 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: get into you know, the level of success that you've 287 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: gotten into, a lot of this becomes a little more 288 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: you know, business oriented or scheduled, And that just goes 289 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: to show that when creativity comes, you gotta roll with 290 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: it absolutely. I mean, that is the best best times 291 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: to right now? Do I believe in hard work and 292 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: getting up Whether you feel like I do your right appartments, yes, 293 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: of course, and and and you have so many days 294 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: where you got gosh, you're getta feel like right today. 295 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: But I'm sure glad we came in and wrote this 296 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: song special. But when the inspiration hits, like when you 297 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: were a kid and you wanted to go right that 298 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: this didn't happen all the time. So when that is 299 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: I usually trust it. And Sarah is so good about it, 300 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, She's like, it's ten o'clock at night, what 301 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: are you doing over the last time I had this feeling, 302 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: I wouldn't wrote out a dance, right She's like, yeah, well, 303 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: also killing it on the charts right now?

Um. 461 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, you know, leebrace everything.

It's a little bit a 473 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: little bit more scattered than some of the other artists, 474 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: are they you know, some of them have you know, 475 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 1: I don't know a concert series they're doing. I don't know, 476 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: but we're still working on that part. But I've just 477 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: been so bogged with getting this record. Yeah, I think 478 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: it's kind of important for me to absolutely well, I 479 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: know I'm looking forward to and I'm sure everyone else 480 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: out there is too.

And I 485 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: think that, uh, on the other side, like I said, 486 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: this whole world is gonna gonna learn a lot from it. 487 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: I think most people, even even the ones that aren't 488 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: you know, that wouldn't normally take a good lesson, you know, 489 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: to to, I think they're gonna take some good lessons 490 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: away from this. I think that the world might be 491 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: a even better place, you know, at the end of 492 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: the day, because maybe it would be some people with 493 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: some changed hearts and changed attitude.
