[ Cheers and applause ] [ Cheers and applause continue ] I always thought I wanted to be a dad, but I had no idea how much I'd enjoy it.
Having children... it was just -- just the most fun I've ever had and just the biggest blessing I've ever had.
My children were born on the 12th of June, and as their first birthday approached, I just thought about it extra.
The idea of it, the words kept sort of bothering me and wouldn't -- wouldn't let me stop thinking about them.
It turned into that song, "12th of June."
I work with musicians who are some of the best musicians in the world, and I feel so fortunate and inspired, you know, to -- to step on stage with Leland Sklar and Russ Kunkel and Dean Parks and Jim Cox and all the other wonderful musicians I get to -- get to work with.
To have Francine Reed come in and perform with us after retiring means the world to me.
I think life is inspiring.
You know, there -- Gosh, there's something interesting to see and something to learn everywhere you look, you know?
People are fascinating.
People that you meet in your everyday life... can inspire you... can make you want to write a song.
So, you know, really all you have to do is look around.
Look around and pay attention.
And right now, you know, in these last five years in my life, when I look around, you know, I see those little ones, and, yeah, it's really been fun.
And they've -- they've given me... they've given me lots of song so far.
