<v Speaker 6>write the song? And I can tell how.

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 2>It blew up.

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 5>So it all started off. I was at my grandparents

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:08.920
<v Speaker 5>place called Redmon Island, and I was feeding the bud

0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 5>seat on the verandah and bud just came along. There

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 5>was pigeons, there were lour keets, there was Roselles, but

0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 5>the main bud that stood out to me.

0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 4>Was the East Moroseilla.

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 5>So, as I was feeding the bud seat, I came

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 5>up with the catchy chorus, and when Dad and me

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 5>got back to Sydney, we had songwriting Saturday and we

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 5>finished the song that day.

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:28.680
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're more talented than me. Bro, Like, I couldn't

0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:34.519
<v Speaker 2>write a chorus to save myself.

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.920
<v Speaker 6>You know, we've not that. I've put on Instagram everything

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:40.480
<v Speaker 6>we've ever done, So this was a bit of an

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.560
<v Speaker 6>unusual situation. I just thought it was just such a

0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 6>great song. I thought, yeah, I'll just denied. I wasn't

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:47.359
<v Speaker 6>going to but I was like, I love it so much,

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 6>I'll just pop it up there, sure, and I'll delete

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:49.960
<v Speaker 6>it later, you know.

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 2>When did it go, Like, it was about a week

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.160
