Stuck together really yes we have and the thing is I believe -- for me.

Being a singer being musicians a gift from god it really is it's not something I would I worked that's not something I went to school for just came to.

And I believe it's got me through every dark time -- every tragedy in my life you know and because I can just pick up the guitar.

No -- up -- that the young boys and the thing is.

Coming from like the tragedy of my own when I'm singing to them and I see their faces light up.

It's almost that movie and shall -- Sullivan's travels its a great movie where -- but everything he did because he did comedy loosely lightly he wanted to be.

Heavy director and then he realized that comedy enjoy.

Is you know it's it's contagious and you get people love their own thing and then you kind of -- -- of your own thing from an excellent so what you put out kind of comes back to.

I agree that you are the only -- -- your family that has musical talent right your brother slide does not saying.

He is.

Probably the worst singer ever.

But he makes up -- for other things.

But he's also but he'll admit he's not consider but he would have to be great singer said would you rather be a great movie star like your -- are.

-- -- But he knows music in other words he's very clever with music in the -- -- think.

Your song don't want to buy me I would not want to -- with you or your brother.

And -- and inspired by -- brawls you might have gotten into your days in Philly well with him yeah.

Every day -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Is that type of thing but.

Now we're very close and the thing was I I like I told -- wanted to get the song in the movies so.

I was picking his brain those wants ultimately just like this like this I -- so I actually had a month speakerphone.

I said I wanna get the song in -- movie so ahead of -- speakerphone -- -- in the studio and when playing the rhythm wise is this kind of what elect its exact.

I sit I sit or right -- Mary Poppins yet there's been closer none of spoonful sugar no and as so.

That was that so I figured don't want to -- that fight with.
