You know, when you 141 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 5: can see it, you can you know what I mean, like, 142 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 5: and other people can't see it. 143 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. 144 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 5: In your mind, everyone is beneath you for for people 145 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 5: that are really talented as musicians, you know. And and 146 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 5: I sit on the other side of that because I 147 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 5: don't play. But I've had so many of those conversations, 148 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 5: and I'm like, you're just never you won't get it. 149 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 5: You're very talented, but you won't get it. You probably 150 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 5: will never have a hit record because your ego is. 151 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 2: In the way of someone telling you you're doing too much. 152 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. 153 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 5: You don't have to do all that because the average 154 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 5: person in the world don't understand. Most of them can't 155 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 5: find it'll see yeah, facts.

You know what taught me that, The NPC 160 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: sixty taught me that because I was trying to stretch 161 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: and and it wouldn't accept it. Yeah, it would cancel 162 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: out notes. Wow, I'll be doing too, I'll be doing 163 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: a lot on this track.
