  • - yeah!
  • 00:13:48.918 --> 00:13:50.352
  • - we wrote this song, the two of us,
  • 00:13:54.156 --> 00:13:56.292
  • And we wrote it many years ago.
  • 00:13:56.292 --> 00:13:58.260
  • I went back and looked at the lyrics of when we wrote it,
  • 00:13:58.260 --> 00:14:00.663
  • And it had the date on there.
  • 00:14:00.663 --> 00:14:02.064
  • And we wrote it when we were in north dakota out on tour.
  • 00:14:02.064 --> 00:14:04.733
  • - ok. i was gonna ask you about the tag.
  • 00:14:04.733 --> 00:14:07.102

  • 00:14:07.102 --> 00:14:08.837
  • 'cause i really don't remember.
  • 00:14:08.837 --> 00:14:10.105
  • - no, and the tag is, you know,
  • 00:14:10.105 --> 00:14:11.573
  • "a kiss can make it better,
  • 00:14:11.573 --> 00:14:13.142
  • But it's amazing what a hug can do."
  • 00:14:13.142 --> 00:14:14.743
  • - mm-hmm.
  • 00:14:14.743 --> 00:14:15.811
  • - and it really tells the message--
  • 00:14:15.811 --> 00:14:17.646
  • And it's a story song, kind of a circle-of-life song,
  • 00:14:17.646 --> 00:14:21.083
  • Of course, between a mother and her son.
  • 00:14:21.083 --> 00:14:25.754
  • But it really shows the power of a hug.
  • 00:14:25.754 --> 00:14:28.924
  • - mm-hmm.
  • 00:14:28.924 --> 00:14:30.025
  • - i think if we all just came together
  • 00:14:30.025 --> 00:14:31.527
  • And hugged each other a little more,
  • 00:14:31.527 --> 00:14:33.228

  • 00:19:35.364 --> 00:19:36.531
  • With simon & garfunkel,
  • 00:19:36.531 --> 00:19:37.733
  • Big song "bridge over troubled water."
  • 00:19:37.733 --> 00:19:39.501
  • - big song.
  • 00:19:39.501 --> 00:19:40.736
  • You think we really should have recorded this?
  • 00:19:40.736 --> 00:19:42.137
  • - no, we shouldn't have.
  • 00:19:42.137 --> 00:19:44.306
  • - what are those hillbillies doing
  • 00:19:44.306 --> 00:19:45.774
  • Singing that really nice song?
  • 00:19:45.774 --> 00:19:47.009
  • - that's a pretty song. - right.
  • 00:19:47.009 --> 00:19:48.644
  • - it's got everything that a perfect song can be defined as.
  • 00:19:48.644 --> 00:19:51.747
  • - oh, yeah.
  • 00:19:51.747 --> 00:19:53.348
  • - and i started thinking about the lyrics itself.
  • 00:19:53.348 --> 00:19:55.517
  • Of course, it's a love song...
  • 00:19:55.517 --> 00:19:57.319
  • - mm-hmm.
  • 00:19:57.319 --> 00:19:58.320
  • - about, i'll be there for you.
  • 00:19:58.320 --> 00:19:59.588
  • - mm-hmm.
  • 00:19:59.588 --> 00:20:01.056
  • - but if you pull back and look at the bigger message,
  • 00:20:01.056 --> 00:20:03.292
  • It can be, i think, a message that god
  • 00:20:03.292 --> 00:20:06.695
  • Is talking to his believers and his constituents on,
  • 00:20:06.695 --> 00:20:10.432
  • Of hey, i'll just-- i'll be there for you,
  • 00:20:10.432 --> 00:20:13.802
  • And i'll be the bridge over your troubled waters
  • 00:20:13.802 --> 00:20:16.004
  • Whenever you need it.
  • 00:20:16.004 --> 00:20:17.339
  • - that's exactly right. it's just full of kindness.
  • 00:20:17.339 --> 00:20:19.007
  • But we love the original. we loved elvis doing that song.
  • 00:20:19.007 --> 00:20:21.643
  • - mm-hmm.
  • 00:20:21.643 --> 00:20:22.711
  • - and again, we-- whenever langdon and i
  • 00:20:22.711 --> 00:20:24.313
  • Approach a song and record,
  • 00:20:24.313 --> 00:20:27.316
  • We feel like we try to bring something new to it.
  • 00:20:27.316 --> 00:20:30.485
  • And i'll never forget gordon mote in the studio
  • 00:20:30.485 --> 00:20:33.221
  • Was the one that said-- he was like,
  • 00:20:33.221 --> 00:20:35.123
  • You know, all versions of this start with the piano.
  • 00:20:35.123 --> 00:20:37.292
  • Why don't you start with an acoustic guitar
  • 00:20:37.292 --> 00:20:39.127
  • 'cause that's who you guys are?
  • 00:20:39.127 --> 00:20:40.462
  • Y'all do everything with the guitars.
  • 00:20:40.462 --> 00:20:42.331
  • And he brought this to fruition, absolutely.
  • 00:20:42.331 --> 00:20:46.702
  • - he did, and we kind of sang it
  • 00:20:46.702 --> 00:20:47.803
  • More of a straight-ahead country song.
  • 00:20:47.803 --> 00:20:49.871

  • To be able to record it.
  • 00:29:20.448 --> 00:29:21.816
  • And we both questioned.
  • 00:29:21.816 --> 00:29:23.284
  • It's been recorded so many times.
  • 00:29:23.284 --> 00:29:25.520
  • You know, what possibly could we bring to it?
  • 00:29:25.520 --> 00:29:29.324
  • But it's been a favorite family song for years,
  • 00:29:29.324 --> 00:29:31.826
  • From church to occasions.
  • 00:29:31.826 --> 00:29:35.029

  • And so i really feel, like, just honored
  • 00:29:37.098 --> 00:29:39.567
  • That we got to record the song.
  • 00:29:39.567 --> 00:29:41.169
  • - it was one of the first songs that i learned
  • 00:29:41.169 --> 00:29:43.838
  • How to sing harmony on.
  • 00:29:43.838 --> 00:29:45.206
  • - really?
  • 00:29:45.206 --> 00:29:46.274

  • - and we were early in our teens,
  • 00:29:52.413 --> 00:29:54.916
  • And i knew, you know, about melody.
  • 00:29:54.916 --> 00:29:56.918
  • You know, that's the core of the song.
  • 00:29:56.918 --> 00:29:59.821
  • But i didn't know about harmony.
  • 00:29:59.821 --> 00:30:01.723
  • And you were teaching me about harmony.
  • 00:30:01.723 --> 00:30:03.524
  • Basically, he just said, just don't sing when i'm singing,
  • 00:30:03.524 --> 00:30:05.727
  • But make sure you sing something else,
  • 00:30:05.727 --> 00:30:06.995
  • And it's got to sound good.
  • 00:30:06.995 --> 00:30:08.363
  • - make sure it sounds different but it goes together.
  • 00:30:08.363 --> 00:30:10.298
  • Exactly.
  • 00:30:10.298 --> 00:30:11.499
  • - that's the hillbilly definition of harmony.
  • 00:30:11.499 --> 00:30:12.567
  • - exactly.
  • 00:30:12.567 --> 00:30:13.902
  • - but you and kim were helping me
  • 00:30:13.902 --> 00:30:15.770
  • Figure out the harmony, you know.
  • 00:30:15.770 --> 00:30:17.605
  • Not getting into the music theory here,
  • 00:30:17.605 --> 00:30:19.107
  • But just--you were like, stay off my note,
  • 00:30:19.107 --> 00:30:21.042
  • But make sure it sounds good.
  • 00:30:21.042 --> 00:30:22.610
