Amy Jack, right here on the K-Dict-O-Gordon Show, today's best country mix. We got interviews for the next couple minutes, I guess I would say. We got a whole interviews lined up for you. We have Amy Jack, Brooklyn Blackmore, Jay Hog, Jeffrey Allen-Bott, and Al Cotter joining us right here on the K-Dict-O-Gordon Show, today's best country mix. 16 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:51,000 Hello and welcome to the K-Dict-O-Gordon Show, today's best country mix. And joining us here today is Amy Jack. Amy, how are you today? 17 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,000 I'm great. How are you? 18 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:59,000 I am doing wonderful. Thank you so much for taking the time to come back. We're excited to have you. 19 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:08,000 Well, I'm excited that you're in the music industry, Kaden. You are a dynamo. 20 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:19,000 Thank you so much. So why don't we get started, for those that don't know much about you, to do a quick introduction and how you got started in the music industry. 21 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:43,000 Well, I don't know. I don't really know when I got started, but I moved to Nashville. But really, when I moved back to Dallas, I got busier actually making music. And I've been working nonstop the last several years. 22 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:59,000 And working today and getting ready to release a new song for summer. And then working on a Christmas album. So it's just nonstop. Trying to do all you can, you know? 23 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:08,000 For sure, absolutely. And that's exciting. Now, I know you have one out right now. It's called God Has His Little Ways. Tell us about that. 24 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Well, this one has meaning. A long time ago, my friend's mother told me. She was from Oklahoma. And she told me, she said, you never heard that? It's a universal thing. She said, like, 80,000 people to their feet in a few seconds. That tells you what music can do. That quick. 25 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:42,000 It's definitely amazing for sure. Now, Amy, if you had an opportunity to go anywhere and play, where would you go and why? 26 00:06:42,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Well, let me see. A lot of places here in the U.S. but also abroad in Europe. I've never been to Europe. But I told someone, I just performed, you know, Christmas Day in front of Tom Brady, his last regular season game. 27 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:19,000 I performed the anthem, Arizona Cardinals versus Tampa Bay. And I'd love to perform at the brand new Los Angeles Stadium. It's just beautiful. 28 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,000 It has that lake and those fountains. 29 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:34,000 Absolutely. I know you're really into football. Can I ask what team you are rooting for? 30 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Well, I learned a long time ago to have more than one so I don't get my feelings hurt. 31 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:54,000 Then I have something else, a Plan B. I live here in Dallas and I have Dallas season tickets, the fact I got to pay my bill this month. 32 00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Those are like, you know, they're America's team and those are expensive. And, you know, they put it to you like they're selling real estate, like your tickets are real estate. 33 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:25,000 But anyway, the Dallas Cowboys and, you know, my song Shaken Bake was inspired by Baker Maseville and he's now at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And so anywhere he goes, they're my team. 34 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:40,000 The Bucs and I have, you know, the Chiefs. I love the Chiefs. I lived in Missouri in Branson for music and I started watching them then, the Chiefs, and now they're just on top of the world. 35 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:46,000 And, and I have other teams. 36 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:59,000 There are several that I like. I mean, I love the Rams because Baker was there last winter, last fall. But that's the fun thing about it, you know. 37 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:14,000 Same with basketball. You can like as many as you want to or admire. I mean, I'm a big fan of Steph Curry. He's a believer. Speaking of God has his little ways. He's just incredible. 38 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:32,000 And Trey Young from Oklahoma. I'm a big fan of his. He's an OU alum like me. And he's at the Atlanta Hawks. But Steph Curry, you know, speaks all the time about his, about his believing. 39 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,000 And he just keeps setting records, you know. 40 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:44,000 Absolutely. He's like a wonder boy. 41 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 Amy, if people want to learn more about you, where can they find you? 42 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:59,000 Amyjackmusic.com or my, on Facebook, it's Amyjackmusic page. 43 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:06,000 And in the other Instagram and everything. 44 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:12,000 If you had one message to tell anyone right now, what would you tell them, Amy? 45 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:22,000 Keep your chin up and be good to yourself. 46 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000 I agree, definitely. 47 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:37,000 Be fair, be fair with yourself and be fair with others too. But, you know, look at all the good things about yourself. 48 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:46,000 The good things that you've done to improve the world. 49 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:58,000 It's hard for everyone to balance. It's hard for everyone to balance, you know. That's another song I may write, balance. It's hard to balance. Everyone's juggling so many things. 50 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:16,000 Everyone you meet is juggling things you don't even, they don't even talk about. But they, you know, they keep, they keep putting one foot in front of the other. 51 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:32,000 I definitely agree with that. I think a lot of people are juggling with a lot of different things. And, you know, it takes, it takes a lot of persistence to do that. Especially for people that are in our industry or the acting industry or any really industry. 52 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:47,000 It takes a lot because you're not always going to get there in your first shot. Not everyone that makes it on TikTok or something overnight becomes like these crazy people and famous in a blink of an eye. 53 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000 Most people have to work for it, unfortunately. 54 00:11:51,000 --> 00:12:03,000 Uh huh. But you know, in most people, it's like the NFL, we were talking about the NFL. Only one, I think it's 1%. I know it's less than 3% make it in the NFL. 55 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:16,000 And, and the same thing with music probably. But the thing is, you just do the best you can do and, and your work speaks for itself. And your life speaks for itself. 56 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:32,000 You know, your life is a legacy. And you do the best you can. And, you know, the truth is the truth. You know, if your music is, is true and pure and everything, that's the prize right there. 57 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,000 You know, virtue is its own reward. 58 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:47,000 Because not everybody's going to be in that 1% and, you know, be on top of the world and everything. Be a TikTok sensation. 59 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:53,000 And, you know, virtue is its own reward. 60 00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:00,000 You know, quality just stands for itself. 61 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:08,000 I agree with that. Amy, is there anything that I forgot to mention that you would like to mention here on the show today? 62 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:19,000 Just keep doing what you're doing, Kayden. You're a bright star for all of us. And I hope you have a great summer, the best ever. 63 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:27,000 Thank you. Yes, absolutely. In July, I'll be going to Nashville for the first time. So I am super excited. 64 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:34,000 Wow. Well, I hope you, I hope you've booked your hotel. 65 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,000 Unless you could stay with someone. 66 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,000 That's true. I didn't even consider that. 67 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,000 Well, we'll talk about that. We'll talk about that more. 68 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Absolutely. 69 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,000 Let's get that booked. 70 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,000 Well, Amy, if I still have my place, you'd be welcome there. 71 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,000 Oh, well, thank you. Amy Jack, thank you so much for taking the time to come on the Kayden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. 72 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:05,000 We appreciate you. Keep up the good work. You are also such a rising star. Thank you. 73 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,000 Okay. Thanks a lot. 74 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:15,000 Hello and welcome to the Kayden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. Joining me right here today is Brooklyn Blackmore. Brooklyn, how are you? 75 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000 I'm doing great. How are you doing today? 76 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,000 I'm doing wonderful. Thank you so much for taking the time to come on the show. 77 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Thank you for having me. I'm so excited to be chatting with you today. 78 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,000 So let's get started by getting to know you a little bit and how you get started in the music industry. 79 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:42,000 Yeah, so I picked up actually the fiddle at a really young age. When I was three years old, I saw a local talent on fiddle here called Natalie McMaster. I saw her on breakfast television. 80 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:51,000 So I thought that was just the coolest instrument ever and I wanted to learn how to play it myself. So I got one for my fourth birthday and that's what kind of started my love for music. 81 00:14:51,000 --> 00:15:03,000 Over the years I picked up fiddle and piano. Not fiddle. I already said fiddle. I picked up the piano, I picked up guitar and then I started finding my voice as a singer and a songwriter. 82 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:18,000 And then in 2016 I actually competed in the global country Star Search, which is what actually launched my love for country music because I ended up winning that Star Search and that took me on a trip to Nashville and the Canadian Country Cup Music Week. 83 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:26,000 So that really just opened my eyes to a whole new level of the music industry and everything that goes on behind the scenes. 84 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:34,000 What advice would you give somebody that might want to start doing music, whether that be songwriters, singers, what would you tell them Brooklyn? 85 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:48,000 I would tell them to just go for it. Don't hold back. Don't be scared that other people are going to judge what you're doing. I just think if you believe in yourself and you believe in your art then everything will just fall into place. So just take that jump and give it a try. 86 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:55,000 Do you have any upcoming singles or projects you want to tell us about today? I know we were just chatting about it. 87 00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:12,000 Yes. So actually last Friday, May 26, I released my most recent single Been There Too. This is the most vulnerable song I've ever really written. It's very open and honest about a situation that I went through a couple years ago. 88 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:29,000 I'm unfortunately a victim of sexual assault. So a couple years ago, that's a really hard part of my life. And I was finally at a place where I felt like I could take my power back and start speaking my truth. So I wrote this song to kind of inspire other people who might be going through this. 89 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:41,000 Just to feel hopeful in their journey and know that healing is a long process, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. And I've been there too. You're not alone. 90 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:48,000 If someone was to write a song about you, what do you think that they would take the time to write about? 91 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,000 Oh, that's an interesting question. 92 00:16:51,000 --> 00:17:10,000 I don't know. I like to think that I'm a pretty like energetic bubbly person. Like one of the first songs that I actually kind of wrote was called Flower Child and I felt like that's kind of an anthem for who I am. I'm really kind of an old soul so I could see it kind of just being about enjoying your life and being one with nature and stuff. 93 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Where do you see yourself for the next couple years or where do you want to be Brooklyn? 94 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:31,000 I would like to get a little more known around Canada, kind of get a presence at the Canadian Country Music Awards. I'm getting ready to release my next record so I'm hoping that's going to be a next stepping stone in my journey for me and bring me to that next level. 95 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:42,000 I've got a little bit of radio airplay but I would really love that to bump up a little more, maybe see some charting. So that's a really big goal for me in the next few years. 96 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000 Absolutely for sure. 97 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:50,000 What do you like doing outside of music? Do you have any hobbies, interests, anything like that? 98 00:17:50,000 --> 00:18:09,000 Most of it's music I'll be honest to you but I do like spending a lot of time outside and you probably wouldn't guess this but I actually do electrical work with my father so I kind of enjoy doing the handy stuff as well. 99 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:15,000 There you go. That's really really cool. That's probably nothing I would guess but. 100 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,000 Yeah, a lot of people say that she's a jack of all trades. 101 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,000 Absolutely. 102 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:36,000 If you had an opportunity to play anywhere in the world Brooklyn, where would you go and why? 103 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:46,000 I would have to say Nashville. Nashville is like a bucket list for me. I was fortunate to take a trip there last year and I got to do a little bit of performing on Broadway. 104 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:57,000 But just I would love to do more of that on a bigger scale. I think that would be fantastic, especially being in the country industry. It's just, that's the hub, that's where everybody's at. 105 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,000 Absolutely, I definitely agree with that. 106 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:08,000 Fantastic talent out that way so it would be nice to be surrounded by that when you're so passionate about music. 107 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:14,000 If you had to choose one singer to do it or collaborate with who would you choose and why? 108 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:37,000 Easy. Miley Cyrus actually. That might come as a surprise as well but she's been a huge influence for me throughout my entire life starting from Hannah Montana when I was a kid and up to her most recent record I've loved everything she's done in the evolution and I feel like we kind of have similar lower register voices, which is not super common in a lot of females. 109 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:43,000 So, I think she's a really good role model for me. I'd love to collaborate with her. 110 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:48,000 If people want to learn more about you Brooklyn, where can they find you? 111 00:19:48,000 --> 00:20:01,000 You can check out my website at brooklynblackmore.ca and I'm also on pretty much all the social medias. You can search Brooklyn Blackmore on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, I'm even on TikTok and YouTube. 112 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:08,000 And of course your favorite streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, everything like that. 113 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:15,000 If you had one message to tell anyone that might be listening right now, what would you tell them Brooklyn? 114 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:23,000 Just to live your life at the fullest, try to find the positivity and everything because that's what I've been trying to do lately. 115 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:29,000 Do you have a hidden talent? If so, tell us a little bit about that. 116 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:46,000 A hidden talent? I don't really know honestly. Nothing comes to mind. I think right now my hidden talent is kind of the fiddle because I haven't been playing it as much over the last few years so I've been kind of popping it back into my shows and people seem to be really enjoying that. 117 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:51,000 So, I'd say maybe that's my hidden talent. 118 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,000 There you go. I mean that works. 119 00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:02,000 There's probably something else but I don't know. I've never got that question before actually. You stumped me. 120 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,000 I mean I'm glad I stumped you there. 121 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:12,000 I do like to garden but I don't know if that's a talent. 122 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,000 I mean a lot of people garden so I guess so. 123 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000 It's on the fence. Yeah, definitely, definitely. 124 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:27,000 Well, what's next for you? Do you have any upcoming projects or anything? 125 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:45,000 Yeah, I'm actually currently working towards my next EP which I actually had the privilege to record down in Nashville. So that's going to be the next big step for me after this single release and everything and I've got some cool summer shows coming up that I'm excited for so I think it's going to be a really good year. 126 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:53,000 Oh, that's wonderful and Brooklyn is there anything that I forgot to mention that you would like to mention here on the show today? 127 00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:04,000 I think we covered most of it. I think I'd really like your listeners to check out my new single in there too and if they like what they hear maybe check out everything else. 128 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:13,000 Brooklyn Blackmore, thank you so much for taking the time to come on the Kate and Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. We definitely appreciate your time and support so thank you. 129 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000 Thank you so much for having me today. 130 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:25,000 Hello, and welcome to the Kate and Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. Joining me right here today is Jay Honk. Jay, how are you? 131 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,000 Yes, I'm really fine these days. 132 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,000 I've been swimming in the sun playing guitar. 133 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:38,000 Yesterday was a bit harder we've been in the studio 12 hours so today was a relaxed day. 134 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:48,000 Well that's wonderful to hear. So why don't we get started by getting to know you a little bit and how you got started in the music industry. 135 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,000 A long time ago. 136 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,000 In the early 80s. 137 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:58,000 I went in Vienna to the clubs with a guitar. 138 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,000 And I was a sort of honker. 139 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:16,000 I asked the guys to put the music down and ask them if I could play a few songs and I was wondering it was really successful and I couldn't stop it anymore. 140 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:28,000 I got an addict really and well I played in the clubs in Vienna in the early 80s as a baska as a honker for no money for a few beers. 141 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:41,000 And in a few years, it grew bigger. I got bands, I got money, record contract, the usual, usual story. 142 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,000 I think. 143 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:50,000 What advice would you give somebody that might want to start doing music. 144 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:56,000 That he finds something, which is really his own thing. 145 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,000 I think everybody needs something. 146 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:06,000 What is really his own personality, which he wants to transport via music. 147 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:14,000 And there are many things I think he needs a lot of strength, physically, physically, emotionally. 148 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:21,000 I think also it's a sort of destination. I really believe in this. 149 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:27,000 Do you have any upcoming singles or projects you want to tell us about today. 150 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:36,000 Well, the project is a lot of singles, I want to release. 151 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000 I've been. 152 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,000 I have been recording. 153 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:45,000 About 404040 tracks 50 tracks. 154 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Three albums, and now I'm really seeing the most interesting songs. 155 00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:03,000 It's a sort of what I would like to leave for the world after me. 156 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:09,000 What do you like doing outside of music. Do you have any hobbies, interests, anything like that. 157 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:15,000 Yes, I really like nature. Definitely. I'm a lot of time in the countryside with my girlfriend. 158 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:20,000 We walk around, watch the trees, animals. 159 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:27,000 And I really like swimming. Definitely. 160 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,000 Where do you see yourself in the next year or two. 161 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,000 Sorry. 162 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000 Where do you see yourself in the next year or two. 163 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:48,000 In the next year or two, I think I hopefully more radio stations play the songs. 164 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:57,000 At the moment, there is a radio station in California in. 165 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,000 At your place as in Massachusetts. 166 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,000 Also in Montana. 167 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000 In Australia. 168 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,000 Switzerland. 169 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,000 A lot of countries play my old songs now and I'm happy about it. 170 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:20,000 And maybe I'm back live on stage in two years. 171 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:26,000 If people want to learn more about you, where can they find you. 172 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:35,000 I'm on my website. 173 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:44,000 www.jivihonk.com 174 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:57,000 The music is in all web stores, iTunes, Spotify, Amazon. 175 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,000 And there is a Facebook site. 176 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:14,000 You can write to me, post to me, and have contact on the Facebook.com. 177 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:19,000 I hope everybody understood this. 178 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:31,000 If someone was to write a song about you, what do you think that they would take the time to write about? 179 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:49,000 It depends what they think about it and I think they should listen to my songs first. 180 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:56,000 If you had an opportunity to go to any venue in the world, where would you go and why? 181 00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,000 To Massachusetts to meet you. 182 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,000 There has to be a better place than here. 183 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,000 I don't know. 184 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,000 I never been to America, but I really like it. 185 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,000 I'm in Vienna. 186 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,000 It's a classical town. 187 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,000 We have Beethoven, Mozart. 188 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,000 Completely different music. 189 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,000 I really like America. 190 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,000 I have the feeling it fits to me. 191 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,000 Simply. 192 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,000 It fits to me. 193 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,000 That's all. 194 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:42,000 I don't know why, but that's the truth. 195 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000 Sorry. 196 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,000 You have time? 197 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,000 One minute? 198 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,000 How long do we have time? 199 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,000 One minute? 200 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,000 We have a few minutes. 201 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,000 In the early 80s, I met two guys from the USA. 202 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,000 I have been hanging around with them for four or five years. 203 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,000 That's why I speak a little bit American English. 204 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,000 They had a salsa band. 205 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000 I was a roadie. 206 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000 I started as a roadie. 207 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,000 Afterwards I was a special guest. 208 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,000 Afterwards the road manager. 209 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,000 What I really liked is the style. 210 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,000 They transported their music. 211 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,000 They went to clubs. 212 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,000 They said, hey, we have this band. 213 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,000 We would like to play there. 214 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:32,000 Nobody in Austria from my friends did something like this. 215 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:40,000 If you had an opportunity to duet or collaborate with any singer, who would you choose and why? 216 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:48,000 I think it's a girl called Ruthie Foster. 217 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000 Do you know her? 218 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,000 Not to mine, no. 219 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,000 She's a great singer. 220 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,000 I saw her yesterday on YouTube with Yorma Kalkonen. 221 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,000 I think he's a well-known guitar player, as far as I'm concerned. 222 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:16,000 However, she had this real power, soul, groove, and this real fun and luck playing music. 223 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,000 She was really great. 224 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:28,000 It was stuff like this. 225 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,000 Well, we're the Chinese. 226 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:38,000 I am your music. 227 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:46,000 Well, only two chords, but they had been grooving, really. 228 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:52,000 If you had one message to tell anyone that might be listening right now, what would that message be? 229 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,000 Be peaceful. 230 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,000 Be healthy. 231 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,000 Be lucky. 232 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:06,000 Lastly, is there anything that I forgot to mention that you would like to mention here on the show today? 233 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:12,000 I have a very nice impression. 234 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:18,000 I think everything is said, and you know, songwriters are special human beings. 235 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:26,000 Most of them do not really talk very much, and I'm one of those, and I'm wondering why I talk so much. 236 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,000 I really don't have no message. 237 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:36,000 What I wish to you listeners, really having a great time listening to radio. 238 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:42,000 Jay Honk, thank you so much for taking the time to come on the Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. 239 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,000 We appreciate your time and support. Thank you. 240 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,000 Have a great time, Kaden. Nice to see you. Bye bye. 241 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,000 Hello and welcome to the Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. 242 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000 Joining me right here today is Jeffrey Allen Vought. 243 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,000 Jeffrey, how are you? 244 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,000 I'm doing great, sir. How are you doing? 245 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:06,000 I am doing quite alright. Thank you so much for taking your time to come on the show today. 246 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000 Yes, sir. 247 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:14,000 So let's get started by getting to know you a little bit and how you got started in the music industry. 248 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:20,000 Alright, well, I started writing songs when I was a child. 249 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:30,000 And my father had an old reel-to-reel tape player from way back years ago, 250 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:36,000 had probably almost right at every song that Hank Williams had ever recorded. 251 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,000 And when I was about six years old, I remember hearing all of that. 252 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:48,000 And to this day, I bet you I know the second, third verses to that every Hank Williams song. 253 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:54,000 He died a long time before I was born, but anyway, he was a hero around our house. 254 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,000 And I started writing songs because Hank Williams wrote songs. 255 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:06,000 And about that time, six, seven years old, I discovered Elvis. 256 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:13,000 And through some old records that my parents had, they bought me an Elvis Christmas album. 257 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:21,000 And I guess they got tired of hearing that. It blew Christmas eight hours a day in June and July and August. 258 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,000 And they finally broke down and bought me some more records. 259 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,000 But I had a bout recently, I had a bout with cancer. 260 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:36,000 And I got to thinking that I'm probably going to die and nobody's ever going to get to hear all these songs that I've written. 261 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:43,000 And so I've begun to put them out and produce them one by one. 262 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:53,000 And they're on all the streaming services, wherever anyone streams their music, Spotify or whatever, iTunes, they can hear these songs. 263 00:33:53,000 --> 00:34:04,000 But I'm cancer free now, thank God. But I'm still going to, you know, I still want people to hear the songs. 264 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:10,000 Anyhow, that is my story. 265 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:17,000 Do you have any upcoming singles or projects you want to tell us about today? 266 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:28,000 Well, sir, I've put out, in the last month, I've put out a gospel song and I've also put out a song called The Southern Most on a catamaran. 267 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:35,000 I've got other songs in the works. Still got to do the mix on some of them. 268 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,000 As I said, I'll be putting these songs out one by one. 269 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,000 The Southern Most, all the radio stations should have it. 270 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,000 And now whether they play it or not, I don't know yet. 271 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:55,000 But every, all the classic radio stations should have it. The Americana stations should have it. 272 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,000 The internet stations should have it. 273 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:05,000 And I'm really putting all my focus on the Southern Most right now. 274 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:18,000 I look on the artist page on Spotify and I see people in Switzerland and Germany and Australia and Belgium all around the world are starting to stream it and listen to it. 275 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000 That's encouraging. 276 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:31,000 If someone was to write a song about you, what do you think that they would take the time to write about? 277 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:53,000 Well, hopefully they would write that I was who I said I was and what I said I was. I'd like for them to write that I was a good husband and father. I'd rather fail at anything than fail as a father. 278 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:59,000 I think those things are important. 279 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:06,000 If you had an opportunity to play anywhere in the world, where would you go and why? 280 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:12,000 Well, I'd like to debut on the Grand Ole Opry. That'd be a thrill of a lifetime. 281 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:22,000 Just something that I'd always wanted to do ever since I was a child and that would be a thrill. 282 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,000 If people want to learn more about you, where can they find you? 283 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:37,000 Well, they can find me on all the streaming platforms. My name is Jeffrey Allen Vaught. 284 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:43,000 The Southern Most on a Catamaran is the song that I have out now. 285 00:36:43,000 --> 00:37:01,000 They can anywhere they stream and if they want to call any of the classic radio stations or the Americana stations and ask them to play that song, they can hear that song there. Check me out on Spotify. I'm on my Spotify account. 286 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:08,000 If you had one message to those who might be listening right now, what would you tell them? 287 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:18,000 I'd tell them don't wait until you have cancer to do what you feel like you need to do or don't wait too long. 288 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,000 Probably ought to jump in there. 289 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:44,000 One other thing I'd say too is that the music business, don't look at it as, well, don't think that the fulfillment of your musical dreams are going to totally fulfill you because I look at so many people who have made it so big in the music business and they're absolutely miserable. 290 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:56,000 They got there and they found out that it did not satisfy them or completely, it did not fulfill them. 291 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:17,000 Well, Elvis, you know, with the drugs and Michael Jackson, both of them just got weirder as they went and Elvis died miserable. Hank Williams died an alcoholic. Marilyn Monroe, we think, not that she was a singer, but she was an entertainer anyway. 292 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:29,000 We think she killed herself. Robin Williams, to quote a Bible verse, for what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul. 293 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:46,000 And that's what everybody I think needs to keep in mind. God gifted us with gift of music and all the other talents that we have, but we can't forget to put him first. 294 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,000 Absolutely. 295 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:54,000 What do you like doing outside of music? Do you have any hobbies, interests, anything like that? 296 00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:00,000 Well, I do. I've got a nine pound six ounce bass hanging on my wall. 297 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:17,000 And I was in a boat in the river. I live in North Florida. Caught him about a year and a half ago in December. And I was in a John Boat in the river with a friend of mine and when I pulled him up, he says, what are you going to do with this fish? 298 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:30,000 I said, well, I guess I'll have him mounted. And my friend's a taxidermist. And he said, well, I'll do it for you and I'll do it for nothing. I'll just, you know, be glad to do that for you. So I got that bass on the wall. I like to hunt. 299 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:48,000 And around here during the season in the summer, they do, they go what they call scalloping. I guess they call them scallops everywhere else, but you go where the water's not very deep. You got your little snorkel and fins if you want them. 300 00:39:48,000 --> 00:40:01,000 You swim around and you look for the scallops on the bottom there and you dive down and get them and fill your bag up. That's a lot of fun. That's what I like to do. 301 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:09,000 Awesome.

I hope people will tune in to your show and hear the song and hear the southernmost stream at first. I would hope they would. And let the radio stations know they want to hear it. 303 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:39,000 Jeffrey, thank you so much for taking the time to come on the Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. We definitely appreciate your time and support. So thank you so much for your time. We really do appreciate you. 304 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,000 Yes, sir. I appreciate you and all your listeners. 305 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:50,000 Hello and welcome to the Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. Joining me right here today is Art Carter. Art, how are you? 306 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,000 Hey, pretty good, Kaden. Nice to be on the show. 307 00:40:53,000 --> 00:41:00,000 So let's get started by getting to know you a little bit and how you got started in the music industry. 308 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:07,000 Well, I've actually been around music my whole life. I'm from up north originally. 309 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:17,000 And I listen to R&B and rock and roll and funk and all that kind of stuff. And I played in those kind of bands. These are cover bands. 310 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:29,000 Well, what happened was I would always hear music a lot of times like, you know, Ronnie Millsap, Willie Nelson, different country artists that blended different genres and always liked the sound. 311 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:37,000 So I always would, you know, and even a lot of country at that time has also been, was on the pop charts. So I was exposed to country. 312 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:53,000 And then when I moved to Florida, I got more into, you know, country artist Garth Brooks and all that kind of stuff. So country's really become a lot of what we would think mainstream music was when rock was really big. 313 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:58,000 Country sort of filled that niche today. So that's it. 314 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:09,000 So as far as getting in the music business, as far as recording and stuff, I had submitted for a show to go sing up in Nashville. 315 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:14,000 And at the time what happened was I was actually picked, but I couldn't go. So I kind of dropped that off. 316 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:24,000 So maybe five years later, three, four, five years later, I got a call out of the blue from some guys in Nashville asking me how things were going with my music career. 317 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:29,000 And I'm wondering, who is this? And then I say, I wonder if this those people from back then. And I got in touch with them. 318 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,000 And that's really how it happened. I started to go up there and record some original music with other people's music. 319 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:47,000 But I also started writing my own music. And then over time, I record a lot more of my own music. 320 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:55,000 If someone was to write a song about you, what do you think that they would take the time to write about? 321 00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:07,000 My tenacity. In other words, you know, being in the music business, particularly if you're an indie, whatever stuff, number one, you have to have great music. 322 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:14,000 You have to have great lyrics and songs. Otherwise, they're not going to play it at all. 323 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:26,000 And then also you're up against the music machine. I mean, if you're if you're on a label like you're on, you know, Sony Nashville or whatever stuff, just the name Sony Nashville opens doors, whatever and stuff. 324 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:34,000 And a lot of money behind them and stuff. So it would really be my tenacity that I don't give up and that I'm like the little engine that could. 325 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,000 I just keep chugging along. 326 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:43,000 Do you have any upcoming singles or projects you want to tell us about today? 327 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:51,000 Well, I mean, obviously I just released that single Through the Waters, which is a country Christian song. 328 00:43:51,000 --> 00:44:04,000 And here's an interesting thing for the people listening is all the songs I've ever written were written either because of some experience that I personally experienced or some idea. 329 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:20,000 Like I wanted to write a song about, you know, America, something like an idea that I wanted to do or an experience. But only in the case of I've written three Christian songs, only in the case of the Christian songs, I actually dreamt. 330 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:33,000 I dreamt the chorus. I heard the chorus in my head, whatever, like it was given to me. So that's that's the uniqueness of the countries of the Christian country songs. 331 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,000 What do you like doing a set of music? Do you have any hobbies, interests, anything like that? 332 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:47,000 Well, I mean, I've always been athletic all my whole life and stuff. So I, you know, work out and run and all that kind of stuff. 333 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:53,000 I mean, obviously I do things in music. I go out and listen to, you know, other bands and I like good food. 334 00:44:53,000 --> 00:45:08,000 I have a good friend of mine down here in Orlando has a restaurant called Fama's. It's an outstanding Italian restaurant. So whenever I want to go out and have something to eat Italian, that's where I go. 335 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:12,000 If people want to learn more about you, where can they find you? 336 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:36,000 Well, I mean, you could search for Art Carter on the Internet, Art Carter Music, all sorts of stuff will come up. My personal website is ArtCarter.com. But if you search for me on the Internet, Art Carter Music, anything like that, you'll find all my different albums and different songs and lots of stuff like that. 337 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:44,000 Do you have any advice to those who might want to start being in music, whether that be songwriter, singers? What would you tell them? 338 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:58,000 Well, I would tell them, number one, to not expect miracles immediately. I mean, you obviously, you know, there's no such thing as a, he was a sudden, you know, overnight success. 339 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:15,000 Nobody's an overnight success. I mean, what happens is a whole lot of hard work and struggle that meets opportunity at the right time. I mean, somebody, he might be an overnight success to the public because they've never heard of this person, but they might have been working at it for 20 years before that ever happened. 340 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:23,000 So that's the first part. Don't expect things to happen. It's a lot of hard work, tenacity. You got to have thick skin, be willing to take criticism. 341 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:43,000 And the other thing is be original. I mean, I had somebody tell me a long time ago, they said, look, you know, when you sing, I mean, so for example, if I sing Willie Nelson, Willie Nelson's song, like On the Road Again, I don't plug my nose and sound nasally when I do it because to sound like Willie Nelson, I'm not a Willie Nelson impersonator, but I will sing in the style of Willie Nelson. 342 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:58,000 So when you sing, you know, you want to be yourself, you want to be original and your music should, you know, if you do an original music, you're writing your own music, you know, that's that a lot of times comes, it fits your personality and stuff. So they met, they mesh well. 343 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:12,000 So don't give up. Persevere. Don't expect being overnight success. Be original in your music and in your sound. 344 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:18,000 Do you have a message to those who might be listening, any of your fans, any of my fans, what would you tell them? 345 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:31,000 So I would tell them that I really appreciate them for listening to my music and being supportive of it, the ones that have and I'm very grateful for that. 346 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:42,000 And and that's what actually makes me continue doing what I'm doing. In other words, is, you know, when you get people that like what you're doing, I mean, you like it because you're doing it, obviously. Right. 347 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:50,000 But if you get, you know, people, other people that are liking it, then you it's encouraging. 348 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:56,000 Absolutely. I definitely agree with that. 349 00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:02,000 Where do you see yourself in the next couple of years or where do you want to be? 350 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:08,000 Well, I mean, I've been really been getting a lot of activity in the last couple of years or whatever with my music. 351 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:18,000 I mean, I've had my last single, Cold Hearted Woman, charted number 26 on Billboard Adult Contemporary. 352 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:27,000 I've had a lot of my songs chart number one on indie networks and stuff like that, the indie network on New Music Weekly and stuff like that. 353 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:38,000 So and then I noticed, you know, because obviously you can tell that there's people that, you know, not only purchasing your songs, whatever, but you can I could see other things like a lot of activity. 354 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,000 Who's been looking at your stuff and stuff like that. 355 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:49,000 So so my name in the music is getting out there and hopefully some big doors will open. 356 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:58,000 I mean, I have a pretty good band and I'm moving them along and I'd like to have some opportunities to play at some great places. 357 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,000 So that's what I'm looking forward to. 358 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:08,000 Awesome. And Art, is there anything that I forgot to mention that you would like to mention here on the show today? 359 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:20,000 I would just say thank you to everybody for listening to my music, for for anybody who happens to be patriotic like myself. 360 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:29,000 God bless America and God bless our troops that are out there looking out for us. 361 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:34,000 Art Carter, thank you so much for taking the time to come on the Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix. 362 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,000 We appreciate you and your time.

some of their music right now. 366 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,000 So I hope you stay tuned to the Kaden Gordon Show. 367 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,000 Today's Best Country Mix. 368 00:49:51,000 -->

00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:17,000 Was it someone that you loved or someone who barely knew you took your innocence away? 372 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,000 This sad story sounds the same. 373 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,000 Just act like nothing happened. 374 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,000 It's just another day. 375 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,000 Never walk alone in darkness. 376 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,000 Keep your keychain by your side. 377 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:36,000 Watching every single movement of each person passing by. 378 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,000 Maybe one day that will change. 379 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,000 But for now just play it safe. 380 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:49,000 His absence made you question each embrace. 381 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:55,000 If you choose to speak up, just know that I believe you. 382 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,000 Cause I've been there too, been down and bruised. 383 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,000 But I got off the ground. 384 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,000 Waiting for things to change. 385 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,000 Let me show you how. 386 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:10,000 Speak the truth without any shame. 387 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:15,000 I'll choose to scream while my voice shakes. 388 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:20,000 And haunt him while I make my name. 389 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:33,000 Cause I've been there too, but I made it through. 390 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:39,000 Your little red dress doesn't earn you a scarlet letter. 391 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,000 They say you need to cover up. 392 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,000 That you should have known better. 393 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,000 Why won't he blame himself? 394 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,000 I wonder how he felt. 395 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:57,000 Adding a notch in his belt at the expense of someone else. 396 00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:03,000 And if you choose to speak up, just know that I believe you. 397 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,000 Cause I've been there too, been down and bruised. 398 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,000 But I got off the ground. 399 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,000 Waiting for things to change. 400 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,000 Let me show you how. 401 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,000 Speak the truth without any shame. 402 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:23,000 I'll choose to scream while my voice shakes. 403 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:28,000 And haunt him while I make my name. 404 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:42,000 Cause I've been there too, but I made it through. 405 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,000 But I got off the ground. 406 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,000 Waiting for things to change. 407 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,000 Let me show you how. 408 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,000 Speak the truth without any shame. 409 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:58,000 I'll choose to scream while my voice shakes. 410 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:03,000 And haunt him while I make my name. 411 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:10,000 Cause I've been there too, but I made it through. 412 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:37,000 Made it through. 413 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:55,000 Sitting on a rock, watching shiny people. 414 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,000 Diving in the sand in a blue land. 415 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:02,000 Walking through a valley with orange mountains. 416 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,000 Black trees without lichens in a blue land. 417 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:09,000 Standing on a bridge, watching angry river. 418 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,000 Dead fish in its water in a blue land. 419 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,000 Purple ships are sailing through a yellow ocean. 420 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:24,000 Forever lost a chorus in a blue land of dreams. 421 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:34,000 In a blue land of dreams. 422 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,000 Heard I whipped a thousand eyes, six zero smiles. 423 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:41,000 No one that I see in a blue land. 424 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,000 Climbers on a tree of yates shining on you. 425 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:48,000 They'll be gone tomorrow in a blue land. 426 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,000 A space hotel with gold roofs and hexagrams. 427 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:55,000 Waiting for the band in a blue land. 428 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,000 Swam in Makita on the red sky. 429 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:06,000 Everyone can fly in a blue land of dreams. 430 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:10,000 In a blue land of dreams. 431 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:56,000 In a blue land of dreams. 432 00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:10,000 In a blue land of dreams. 433 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:17,000 In a blue land of dreams. 434

southernmost man. 443 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:11,000 With the southernmost woman on a catamaran. 444 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:16,000 Not trying to burn any bridges back home. 445 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:20,000 I'm just trying to be alone. 446 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,000 In the Keys, on the coast. 447 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:28,000 With the one I love at the southernmost. 448 00:57:28,000 -->

cannon, I'm a smoking gun. 454 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:14,000 Two bundles of nerves wound way too tight. 455 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:18,000 But we'll feel better in the morning light. 456 00:58:18,000
