- In the best possible way.
- 00:04:50.146 --> 00:04:52.448
- So i have a really important question for you.
- 00:04:52.448 --> 00:04:54.517
- - okay. [laughs]
- 00:04:54.517 --> 00:04:55.818
- - for something like this,
- 00:04:55.818 --> 00:04:57.820
- Is it that you prayed for this project
- 00:04:57.820 --> 00:05:02.225
- Just to come through to you,
- 00:05:02.225 --> 00:05:04.394
- Or was it just laid on your heart that hey,
- 00:05:04.394 --> 00:05:07.663
- Josh turner, this is what god wants you to do?
- 00:05:07.663 --> 00:05:10.400
- - well, i had always wanted to do a christmas album,
- 00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:13.369
- And i had had people every year,
- 00:05:13.369 --> 00:05:15.671
- "what, you're not putting a christmas album out this year?"
- 00:05:15.671 --> 00:05:18.341
- "no, it's on my list of things to do."
- 00:05:18.341 --> 00:05:20.042
- It was like i just got used to saying that over and over.
- 00:05:20.042 --> 00:05:22.678
- And so finally, when i actually got the chance
- 00:05:22.678 --> 00:05:25.181
- To actually do a christmas record,
- 00:05:25.181 --> 00:05:27.383
- I kind of almost psyched myself out
- 00:05:27.383 --> 00:05:29.485
- Because i had always looked at randy travis'
- 00:05:29.485 --> 00:05:33.356
- First christmas album, "an old time christmas,"
- 00:05:33.356 --> 00:05:36.159
- As, like, the template for what i wanted
- 00:05:36.159 --> 00:05:38.961
- My christmas record to be like.
- 00:05:38.961 --> 00:05:41.197
- And so i went into it with that mindset.
- 00:05:41.197 --> 00:05:45.067
- And so my producer, kenny greenberg,
- 00:05:45.067 --> 00:05:47.904
- Kind of finally broke me out of that mentality.
- 00:05:47.904 --> 00:05:50.673
- It's like, "hey, you know, he's already done that record.
- 00:05:50.673 --> 00:05:53.409
- We got to do your record."
- 00:05:53.409 --> 00:05:55.878
- And so that kind of helped me out.
- 00:05:55.878 --> 00:05:59.148
- Another thing that helped was, i sat down with kenny
- 00:05:59.148 --> 00:06:03.753
- Probably for three hours
- 00:06:03.753 --> 00:06:05.154
- And just played him every song under the sun
- 00:06:05.154 --> 00:06:07.657
- That was an idea, was a song i had written,
- 00:06:07.657 --> 00:06:10.560
- Stuff that i liked, stuff that i had heard,
- 00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:12.829
- And i just expected him to come back and say,
- 00:06:12.829 --> 00:06:16.098
- "oh, well, let's do this one, this one, this one, this one."
- 00:06:16.098 --> 00:06:18.000
- - yeah.
- 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:19.135
- - but i think i kind of overwhelmed him,
- 00:06:19.135 --> 00:06:20.503
- And he was like, "can i live with this for a few weeks
- 00:06:20.503 --> 00:06:23.105
- And get back to you?"
- 00:06:23.105 --> 00:06:24.474
- And i said, "sure."
- 00:06:24.474 --> 00:06:26.275
- And so that's what we did,
- 00:06:26.275 --> 00:06:27.910
- And he came back with his list of favorites,
- 00:06:27.910 --> 00:06:30.313
- And it was anything but what i had expected,
- 00:06:30.313 --> 00:06:33.616
- But they were all my ideas, so i couldn't get mad.
- 00:06:33.616 --> 00:06:36.619
- - you're putting a special touch in several ways.
- 00:06:36.619 --> 00:06:38.921
- Your family's involved in this.
- 00:06:38.921 --> 00:06:40.656
- Obviously, they forced you to let them come on and sing.
- 00:06:40.656 --> 00:06:43.926
- - yeah, yeah. - because they really shine.
- 00:06:43.926 --> 00:06:46.195
- But also, you wrote three of the four different songs--
- 00:06:46.195 --> 00:06:50.833
- The four different songs, shall we say...
- 00:06:50.833 --> 00:06:52.468
- - the originals, yeah. - on the project.
- 00:06:52.468 --> 00:06:54.871
- And i'm curious about the inspiration
- 00:06:54.871 --> 00:06:56.539
- With mr. mclaughlin that you worked with.
- 00:06:56.539 --> 00:06:58.741
- - well, and to answer lorianne's question,
- 00:06:58.741 --> 00:07:00.743
- Yes, there was a lot of prayer involved,
- 00:07:00.743 --> 00:07:02.578
- And, you know, i think it was an anointed record
- 00:07:02.578 --> 00:07:05.715
- In a lot of ways,
- 00:07:05.715 --> 00:07:06.849
- Because there were things that happened
- 00:07:06.849 --> 00:07:08.451
- That i didn't really plan for
- 00:07:08.451 --> 00:07:10.520
- And didn't really expect to happen.
- 00:07:10.520 --> 00:07:13.623
- And the song with pat... [laughs]
- 00:07:13.623 --> 00:07:17.593
- That was one of those examples,
- 00:07:17.593 --> 00:07:19.662
- Because i had met with kenny,
- 00:07:19.662 --> 00:07:22.131
- And one of the last songs i had played for kenny
- 00:07:22.131 --> 00:07:24.100
- Was the old bluegrass christmas standard,
- 00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:27.236
- You know, "beautiful star of bethlehem."
- 00:07:27.236 --> 00:07:29.805
- And so i played it for kenny, and he said,
- 00:07:29.805 --> 00:07:35.011
- "yeah, we need to do this song or something like it."
- 00:07:35.011 --> 00:07:38.314
- And he said, "you need to write something like it.
- 00:07:38.314 --> 00:07:40.349
- And i'm like, "you don't just sit down
- 00:07:40.349 --> 00:07:41.751
- And write something like 'beautiful star of bethlehem,'"
- 00:07:41.751 --> 00:07:43.452
- 'cause when you listen to the lyrics,
- 00:07:43.452 --> 00:07:45.555
- It's like, that's some, you know,
- 00:07:45.555 --> 00:07:48.090
- Pretty good lyrics there.
- 00:07:48.090 --> 00:07:49.325
- And so pat mclaughlin came in to write with me
- 00:07:49.325 --> 00:07:53.029
- This one particular day,
- 00:07:53.029 --> 00:07:54.397
- And i'm commiserating to him about what kenny said.
- 00:07:54.397 --> 00:07:57.366
- You know, i'm like, you know, "who's gonna sit around
- 00:07:57.366 --> 00:07:59.635
- "and, you know, write something like
- 00:07:59.635 --> 00:08:01.203
- 'beautiful star of bethlehem'?"
- 00:08:01.203 --> 00:08:02.538
- And as i'm talking, he's kind of half listening,
- 00:08:02.538 --> 00:08:04.874
- Noodling on the guitar,
- 00:08:04.874 --> 00:08:06.108
- And next thing i know, he's playing this thing,
- 00:08:06.108 --> 00:08:07.677
- You know, and he even had the title,
- 00:08:07.677 --> 00:08:09.478
- "what he's given me,"
- 00:08:09.478 --> 00:08:10.913
- And didn't really know what it was about.
- 00:08:10.913 --> 00:08:13.316
- And i said, "keep playing that. i like that."
- 00:08:13.316 --> 00:08:15.885
- And so next thing you know, we were writing
- 00:08:15.885 --> 00:08:17.787
- This, you know, bluegrass...
- 00:08:17.787 --> 00:08:19.555
- - becomes magic. - 3/4 time christmas song,
- 00:08:19.555 --> 00:08:22.091
- And it does have that
- 00:08:22.091 --> 00:08:23.593
- "beautiful star of bethlehem" feel.
- 00:08:23.593 --> 00:08:25.227
- And, you know, i have fond memories
- 00:08:25.227 --> 00:08:27.163
- Of sitting in my grandparents' house
- 00:08:27.163 --> 00:08:29.131
- And my uncle, which, you know,
- 00:08:29.131 --> 00:08:31.000
- I didn't even know he played guitar,
- 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:32.835
- But he asked me to hand him my guitar
- 00:08:32.835 --> 00:08:36.105
- 'cause i was sitting there playing some stuff,
- 00:08:36.105 --> 00:08:37.740
- And he just started playing "beautiful star of bethlehem."
- 00:08:37.740 --> 00:08:40.109
- And that was one of those old songs
- 00:08:40.109 --> 00:08:41.844
- That i remember granny listening to
- 00:08:41.844 --> 00:08:43.713
- On her record player in her house.
- 00:08:43.713 --> 00:08:45.915
- But yeah, this was the first time
- 00:08:45.915 --> 00:08:48.417
- That pat and i have actually performed it live, so...

- 00:22:24.900 --> 00:22:27.669
- "soldier's gift" is a wonderful standout production
- 00:22:27.669 --> 00:22:31.706
- On this project, and it's more--
- 00:22:31.706 --> 00:22:35.110
- The title says one thing, but it goes a lot further.
- 00:22:35.110 --> 00:22:38.447
- It brings in the families of soldiers, josh.
- 00:22:38.447 --> 00:22:41.650
- - yeah, this was the only outside song on the record,
- 00:22:41.650 --> 00:22:45.754
- Outside original song on the record.
- 00:22:45.754 --> 00:22:48.457
- And it was written by tom douglas
- 00:22:48.457 --> 00:22:52.494
- And travis hill-- almost drew a blank.
- 00:22:52.494 --> 00:22:54.463
- But, you know, kenny had reached out
- 00:22:54.463 --> 00:22:57.766
- To tom and said, "hey, do you have any
- 00:22:57.766 --> 00:22:59.668
- Christmas songs that you can send my way?"
- 00:22:59.668 --> 00:23:01.803
- And he said, "yeah, i actually--
- 00:23:01.803 --> 00:23:02.938
- We actually just wrote one."
- 00:23:02.938 --> 00:23:04.539
- And so he sent him "soldier's gift,"
- 00:23:04.539 --> 00:23:06.208
- And kenny sat down in his studio at his house
- 00:23:06.208 --> 00:23:09.578
- And played it for me, and i was like, "wow.
- 00:23:09.578 --> 00:23:11.780
- Like, why hasn't anybody written this yet?"
- 00:23:11.780 --> 00:23:15.083
- That was my first question was, like, "how is this a new idea?
- 00:23:15.083 --> 00:23:18.019
- It told such a great story about how,
- 00:23:18.019 --> 00:23:21.356
- You know, the soldier is off,
- 00:23:21.356 --> 00:23:24.459
- Away from home, and, like--
- 00:23:24.459 --> 00:23:27.395
- We tend to take that holiday for granted a lot of times,
- 00:23:27.395 --> 00:23:30.499
- You know, just the freedom that we get to take off work,
- 00:23:30.499 --> 00:23:33.101
- And we get to spend time with family
- 00:23:33.101 --> 00:23:34.603
- And eat all kinds of food
- 00:23:34.603 --> 00:23:36.004
- And do all these different events
- 00:23:36.004 --> 00:23:38.039
- And just kind of let our hair down for a while,
- 00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:40.542
- But we never think about the fact that there's
- 00:23:40.542 --> 00:23:43.778
- Guys and girls, you know, across the world
- 00:23:43.778 --> 00:23:46.882
- Ensuring that we have that freedom and that liberty
- 00:23:46.882 --> 00:23:49.384
- And that freedom to celebrate with our families
- 00:23:49.384 --> 00:23:52.487
- And to celebrate christmas.
- 00:23:52.487 --> 00:23:53.488
- That's the soldier's gift
- 00:23:53.488 --> 00:23:54.656
- Is that we get to live life
- 00:23:54.656 --> 00:23:57.092
- Here in this country freely.
- 00:23:57.092 --> 00:23:59.127
- And we have them to thank, so...
- 00:23:59.127 --> 00:24:01.563
- - and we also have the families to thank,
- 00:24:01.563 --> 00:24:05.267
- - it was, and i had done a partnership
- 00:24:05.267 --> 00:24:08.036
- With wounded warrior project with the video and--
- 00:24:08.036 --> 00:24:12.040
- - oh, yeah, i noticed the ball cap on one of the soldiers.
- 00:24:12.040 --> 00:24:14.576
- - yeah, so that that was a cool thing to be a part of,
- 00:24:14.576 --> 00:24:16.144
- 'cause i actually got to spend time, you know,
- 00:24:16.144 --> 00:24:18.413
- With some of those wounded warriors
- 00:24:18.413 --> 00:24:20.181
- And to hear their stories, and they were--
- 00:24:20.181 --> 00:24:23.985
- It was ironic, because they were thanking me
- 00:24:23.985 --> 00:24:27.222
- For doing something like that
- 00:24:27.222 --> 00:24:28.857
- To kind of get their story out, you know.
- 00:24:28.857 --> 00:24:31.493
- And i was sitting there thinking,
- 00:24:31.493 --> 00:24:33.695
- Like, you know, "i'm doing this to kind of honor them
- 00:24:33.695 --> 00:24:38.199
- "and do something for them,
- 00:24:38.199 --> 00:24:39.601
- "but they were doing something for me
- 00:24:39.601 --> 00:24:41.136
- By being a part of the video."
- 00:24:41.136 --> 00:24:43.004
- - well, i'm ready to feel the chills.
- 00:24:43.004 --> 00:24:45.807

- 00:36:21.335 --> 00:36:22.837
- Because i come from a household of girls.
- 00:36:22.837 --> 00:36:25.406
- So we always did all the, like, overdecorating,
- 00:36:25.406 --> 00:36:28.809
- Ribbons and bows and that sort of thing.

- 00:36:44.659 --> 00:36:46.027
- They'll at least get the boxes down from the attic
- 00:36:46.027 --> 00:36:48.195
- And help me get started, and, you know,
- 00:36:48.195 --> 00:36:50.431
- I mean, they're great, and i don't overdo--
- 00:36:50.431 --> 00:36:52.433
- I feel like i did it more when they were younger,
- 00:36:52.433 --> 00:36:54.368
- And the older they've gotten,
- 00:36:54.368 --> 00:36:55.403

- 00:36:55.403 --> 00:36:57.138

- Now, i got to confess something.
- 00:37:06.681 --> 00:37:08.983
- The last time i saw josh and all the boys
- 00:37:08.983 --> 00:37:11.852
- Was at the mall one time.
- 00:37:11.852 --> 00:37:13.888
- - i think it was the last time i went to the mall.
- 00:37:13.888 --> 00:37:15.556
- - yeah. - three years ago.
- 00:37:15.556 --> 00:37:16.957
- - josh and all the guys were there,
- 00:37:16.957 --> 00:37:19.393
- And i said, "what are you doing?"
- 00:37:19.393 --> 00:37:20.695
- He said, "we're shopping for mother's day."
- 00:37:20.695 --> 00:37:22.830
- - aww. - and they had
- 00:37:22.830 --> 00:37:23.898

- Is she that hard to shop for? seriously.
- 00:37:26.867 --> 00:37:29.570
- - she and i both can be pretty hard to buy for,
- 00:37:29.570 --> 00:37:31.672
- 'cause, like, you know, like we were saying earlier,
- 00:37:31.672 --> 00:37:33.607
- Like, we're just-- we've just been so blessed
- 00:37:33.607 --> 00:37:35.276
- In the last 20 years, you know.
- 00:37:35.276 --> 00:37:37.044
- We try to shoot for something that's meaningful,
- 00:37:37.044 --> 00:37:40.748
- Which in itself can be kind of hard to pull off sometimes.

- - well, and, charlie, let me echo that,
- 00:49:55.649 --> 00:49:57.517
- Because you do bring just the fun and the magic
- 00:49:57.517 --> 00:50:01.254
- Of santa claus and the toys and the feasts
- 00:50:01.254 --> 00:50:04.224
- And the pageantry and all of that,
- 00:50:04.224 --> 00:50:06.193
- But you also combine that with the sacred,
- 00:50:06.193 --> 00:50:08.895
- And you balance it on this album.
- 00:50:08.895 --> 00:50:10.931
- How do you balance that in your own life
- 00:50:10.931 --> 00:50:13.834
- During the holiday season?
- 00:50:13.834 --> 00:50:15.569
- - i'm always thinking about balance,
- 00:50:15.569 --> 00:50:18.338
- Because you kind of have to have that,
- 00:50:18.338 --> 00:50:20.307
- And i preach that to my boys all the time because...
- 00:50:20.307 --> 00:50:24.544
- They want to do one thing all the time, seems like.
- 00:50:24.544 --> 00:50:26.980
- And i have to tell them just, like, "hey,
- 00:50:26.980 --> 00:50:30.016
- "you got to do something else.
- 00:50:30.016 --> 00:50:31.384
- You know, take a break from that; go do this."
- 00:50:31.384 --> 00:50:33.820
- And so i've kind of preached that to them.
- 00:50:33.820 --> 00:50:36.923
- And i try to do that with myself
- 00:50:36.923 --> 00:50:39.860
- And with my schedule.
- 00:50:39.860 --> 00:50:41.128
- And, you know, it's like, if i know i'm gonna have
- 00:50:41.128 --> 00:50:43.096
- A busy, heavy year, i try to block off times
- 00:50:43.096 --> 00:50:45.699
- Where i can go and just not think about the music business
- 00:50:45.699 --> 00:50:48.668
- And not think about, you know,
- 00:50:48.668 --> 00:50:50.237
- Getting dressed up and being in front of a crowd
- 00:50:50.237 --> 00:50:52.572
- And all that kind of stuff.
- 00:50:52.572 --> 00:50:53.740
- So i think it's healthy, you know, and it--
- 00:50:53.740 --> 00:50:57.811
- To have varied interests and just varied ideas
- 00:50:57.811 --> 00:51:02.015
- And an open mind on things in life,
- 00:51:02.015 --> 00:51:05.085
- I think, is the healthiest way to go about it.
- 00:51:05.085 --> 00:51:07.187
- Having a sense of humor, you know, goes a long way.
- 00:51:07.187 --> 00:51:10.223
- I learned that from my daddy's side of the family.
- 00:51:10.223 --> 00:51:12.859
- They were always laughing, you know, cutting up
- 00:51:12.859 --> 00:51:15.328
- And, you know, giving each other a hard time.
- 00:51:15.328 --> 00:51:17.898
- And i've just carried that over into my life,
- 00:51:17.898 --> 00:51:20.901
- Because if you take things too seriously for too long,
- 00:51:20.901 --> 00:51:23.203
- It's gonna eat at you and it's gonna,
- 00:51:23.203 --> 00:51:25.539
