voice comes in on the left channel, it's on the left, it's mixed, it's mixed on left channel, and you come in, you come in kind of late. 00:46:18.400 --> 00:46:27.280 It's like it's so loose and and and uh you know, it's so like not perfect. 00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:29.679 And that was what it was about. 00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:31.519 It's charming because of that. 00:46:31.599 --> 00:46:38.000 It has this raw, just kind of it's almost like you just all sat down and did a demo. 00:46:38.639 --> 00:46:43.039 But it it's a track and it sounds it sounds perfect, you know? 00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:50.000 It's so simple, and uh, you know, they do so much remixing and remastering now of the of some of this older stuff. 00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:56.480 And and I I sometimes I I listen to the older version, the newer version, I go, okay, yeah, that's an improvement, you know. 00:46:56.639 --> 00:46:57.599 Okay, I get it. 00:46:57.679 --> 00:47:00.159 You know, there were things, things that you missed then. 00:47:00.320 --> 00:47:11.280 But so many of those records were mixed when the recording and and uh uh the uh uh the the way we were listening to music was very different. 00:47:11.440 --> 00:47:25.119 Yeah, you know, everything was mixed with FM radio and AM radio in mind, you know, which which gave you uh not much of a sonic uh palette to work with, which is now completely different, you know. 00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:28.639 There's so much more we can do, which is great, which is a wonderful thing. 00:47:28.719 --> 00:47:31.760 But then it wasn't, it wasn't that wasn't the case, you know. 00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:43.119 So the r and I I still think that the reason these records hold up so well even now is because they were mixed without frills and with something very just simple. 00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:46.239 It was about mainly about the performance. 00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:48.000 Don't you think? 00:47:48.320 --> 00:47:49.920 Oh, absolutely, yeah. 00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:54.559 It was it was about capturing the artist, capturing the performance. 00:47:54.800 --> 00:47:55.199 Yeah. 00:47:55.440 --> 00:48:05.519 It was not about I mean, not all bands were like that, but in Eric's case, it was, you know, just about the the the song writing, about the song, about the performance, really. 00:48:05.599 --> 00:48:06.719 That's what it was about. 00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:09.840 Capturing the essence of it, the true essence of it. 00:48:10.079 --> 00:48:13.519 So the did you uh what was your friendship like with Eric Clapton? 00:48:13.599 --> 00:48:23.119 Was it uh um did did you did you ask to to co-write or did he approach you about it or or was it just kind of something that developed naturally? 00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:26.079 Well, you know, I was I was part of his band. 00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:32.960 We weren't really friends, like initially, um, but you know, we became more friends. 00:48:33.199 --> 00:48:43.920 Um but he we just, you know, like I said a little bit earlier, as far as when we were in the studio, he didn't always have ideas. 00:48:44.159 --> 00:48:47.679 That I, you know, we just kind of started things in the studio. 00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:48.880 He would start playing. 00:48:49.039 --> 00:48:55.840 Sometimes he'd come to the studio with an idea, um, like, oh, you know, he'd just start playing something, and the band would join in. 00:48:56.000 --> 00:49:00.320 And because they were all such great musicians, they knew exactly what to play. 00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:02.880 He was never telling him, oh, play this, play that. 00:49:03.039 --> 00:49:07.599 He just trusted everybody to do what they did, which was incredible. 00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:18.079 Um, and so, you know, sometimes he would come in with an idea like he did for for Lay Down Sally and when he when we started the Slow Hand album. 00:49:18.320 --> 00:49:22.159 And um he said to me, this is literally how the song started. 00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:30.400 We were all in the the live room of the studio at Olympic, and he said to me, Hey Marcy, I want to write a song called Lay Down Sally. 00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:33.440 And I was like, Oh, okay. 00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:44.320 So I just kind of picked up a guitar, and I'm sure you had this experience, and it and it's not very technical, but what it is is you just kind of pull a melody out of the air. 00:49:44.480 --> 00:49:44.960 I don't know. 00:49:45.119 --> 00:49:58.880 It's in this artistic ether, and as a creative person, you just kind of let yourself be completely free and open to it, and it just comes to you. 00:49:59.039 --> 00:50:03.360 And that melody just came to me uh for that title. 00:50:03.599 --> 00:50:08.320 He wanted to work with that title, so it just came to me, and and I started playing. 00:50:08.480 --> 00:50:13.039 We were all very much into um little feet and Bo Diddley. 00:50:13.440 --> 00:50:24.159 So I just started playing a Bo Diddley groove, and that that is like it, which is like a bump, the bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bum, you know, it's called second line, you know, like Louisiana kind of vibe. 00:50:24.800 --> 00:50:26.559 And um the best. 00:50:26.880 --> 00:50:34.880 So it came to me and I started singing that, and and we wrote wrote the whole we wrote the chorus first, which you and I did the other day. 00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:35.519 Yes. 00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:44.239 Uh we got the chorus down, and it was like, okay, this is really good, but we couldn't figure out where to go with the verse with that with that groove. 00:50:44.320 --> 00:50:45.760 It was nothing was working. 00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:48.960 And we worked on it for like literally five hours. 00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:54.239 It was Eric and George Terry and I were working on it and working on it, working on it. 00:50:54.320 --> 00:51:06.079 And uh, and Dick, the keyboard player, left, went back to the hotel, and um, and then all of a sudden Eric started playing the you know, the kale, kind of the

dink, dink, dunk, yeah, and George joined in. 00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:08.159 Yeah. 00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:16.719 And and he came up with the the verse idea on the spot as they were running down the the song, the chorus, you know, the groove idea. 00:51:16.880 --> 00:51:18.880 He just kind of came up with the verse idea. 00:51:19.039 --> 00:51:25.199 We had the chorus and the melody already written, but there were no verses, it just like the music for the verses. 00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:31.679 And um Eric said to me, All right, go back to the hotel and write write the song, write the verses. 00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:35.679 So I came back the next day with the lyrics, with the lyric and the melody. 00:51:36.000 --> 00:51:37.280 That's what you did with me. 00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:39.760 Yeah, yeah, you said said lyrics. 00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:40.400 People don't like it. 00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:41.119 We're perfect. 00:51:41.280 --> 00:51:41.920 No, I loved it. 00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:42.960 They were perfect. 00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:46.559 You did, you liked it, and you made it your own, which was great. 00:51:46.639 --> 00:51:52.000 You know, you the artist, you were, you know, and I am so good with that. 00:51:52.159 --> 00:52:07.519 I mean, uh some people think that what they do is written in stone, and of course, if it's great, fine, but I think you know, when you're working with other people, there is a give and take, and you want them to embrace it and make it their own, which I think you did beautifully. 00:52:07.599 --> 00:52:08.639 So thank you, thank you. 00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:10.719 Yeah, so I gotta ask you about Sally. 00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:11.440 Who is she? 00:52:11.679 --> 00:52:13.360 What was who is she? 00:52:13.519 --> 00:52:20.480 Everyone so when when I said like I'm gonna have Marcella Detroit on on making sound on the show, and and they were like, Oh, ask her about Lay Down Sally. 00:52:20.639 --> 00:52:21.599 Who would what's the deal? 00:52:21.679 --> 00:52:27.679 What's what what's I was like okay, I gotta, so I gotta ask, what who is Sally? 00:52:28.400 --> 00:52:39.119 Well, Eric never told me, but I and me being like, okay, you know, I'll just write a song called Lay Down Sally, and that, you know, that's good, I can do that. 00:52:39.280 --> 00:52:52.719 Um, but my guess is, and I'm pretty sure this is true, um, Eric had a body car a bodyguard named Alfie, and Alfie's wife was named Sally, and they were all very close. 00:52:52.880 --> 00:53:04.559 So my guess is that he heard Alfie saying to Sally, lay down, Sally, you know, lay down, take, you know, like take a load off, you know, yeah, relax, take it easy. 00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:07.440 And so that's where I assume it came from. 00:53:07.679 --> 00:53:09.039 But I saw Sally. 00:53:09.280 --> 00:53:16.400 She had when we we did our Shakespeare Sister reunion tour in 2019, she contacted me and said, Oh, I'd love to come to one of your shows. 00:53:16.559 --> 00:53:20.320 And she did, but I didn't get to see her afterwards to ask about that. 00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:21.199 Yeah. 00:53:21.599 --> 00:53:25.760 Okay, now I gotta, we I can't believe we've been talking for an hour, by the way. 00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:26.559 Almost an hour. 00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:27.119 Can you believe that? 00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:27.840 That's crazy. 00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:29.039 So that's that's great. 00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:29.519 And we're good. 00:53:29.679 --> 00:53:35.679 I'm gonna have to wrap it up soon, but I need to you're gonna, we're gonna obviously see each other and talk to each other. 00:53:35.760 --> 00:53:37.760 We have a writing session planned for Monday and dah dah dah. 00:53:37.840 --> 00:53:38.000 Yeah. 00:53:38.159 --> 00:53:41.440 And uh it would be great if you can come back on and talk a little bit more about some of this stuff. 00:53:41.920 --> 00:53:42.719 It's just fascinating. 00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:50.800 I mean, like you have endless, endless amounts of stories that we did, we barely touched on stuff, but I gotta get to Shakespeare's sister just a little bit and a little bit of abfab. 00:53:51.199 --> 00:53:52.320 We talked about this, you know. 00:53:52.719 --> 00:53:57.119 Um absolutely fabulous, but uh uh Shakespeare's sister first, you know. 00:53:57.199 --> 00:54:02.880 You so you're how did you end up going to England and meeting Siobhan Fehey from Bananorama? 00:54:03.039 --> 00:54:17.840 And you know, some people don't know Bananorama, maybe, maybe they do, maybe they don't, but they were a girl pop group, uh a British girl pop group in the 80s, and you know, it was like pop dance records type of stuff. 00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:22.639 And then when she started Shakespeare's sister, it was like the complete opposite, you know. 00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:23.920 Right, yeah, that was interesting. 00:54:24.239 --> 00:54:33.519 Very stylistically very different, and I think she wanted to get away from that girl group, you know, pop star formulaic formulaic thing. 00:54:33.760 --> 00:54:38.880 Yeah, and so she but she started it on her own, and then you came in later. 00:54:39.039 --> 00:54:39.519 Is that correct? 00:54:40.239 --> 00:54:48.800 Well, how how it happened was you know, I mentioned my friend Richard Feldman who who wrote the the song for Eric and and a few other songs for him as well. 00:54:48.880 --> 00:54:51.760 And he's been a writing partner of mine over the years. 00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:53.360 I met him in Tulsa the first time. 00:54:54.000 --> 00:54:55.280 He's still around in U Gastown. 00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:56.559 He's still around, he's in LA. 00:54:57.920 --> 00:55:08.320 But I uh he had a studio in his place, and one day in it's like a few, I don't know, ten minutes from where I live right now, in an area called Encino. 00:55:09.039 --> 00:55:14.719 And uh he one day noticed that he was getting new neighbors across the street. 00:55:14.960 --> 00:55:30.239 And and as time went on, a few

days later, he noticed that it was he went over to introduce himself and discovered that it was Dave Stewart of the Eurythmix and his new wife, Siobhan Fahi, um, who was pretty pregnant at the time. 00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:42.960 And um, and so excuse me, he started working with her because she said she wanted to leave Bananarama and do her own thing, completely different thing, as you pointed out. 00:55:43.360 --> 00:55:50.159 And um, so he started writing with her, and after writing with her for a few weeks, he said, you know, you should come and join us. 00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:58.239 I think your voice and and all that you could add as a musician would would be great with this. 00:55:58.480 --> 00:55:59.920 And so I was like, okay. 00:56:00.159 --> 00:56:01.679 So I went over, met her. 00:56:01.840 --> 00:56:03.679 She was very, very shy. 00:56:03.920 --> 00:56:26.800 Um, but we kind of helped and encouraged her to come out of herself, and and she was coming up, and Richard was a great producer and really understood what what she wanted, and he was willing to be more experimental, more unusual, not like the use, you know, any kind of formulaic kind of stuff. 00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:29.119 So they were creating these incredible tracks together. 00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:30.880 Then we all started working together. 00:56:31.039 --> 00:56:52.880 I I, you know, helped with she m mostly wrote the lyrics, but sometimes I helped, and I helped with, you know, chords and and music and just whatever I could, and vocals and guitar and harmonica and programming, even, you know, I mean, it was all down to, you know, whatever space there was to fill that you could do, you did. 00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:54.320 And that's how we met. 00:56:54.480 --> 00:56:57.760 And, you know, at first I was like a hired hand. 00:56:57.920 --> 00:57:00.239 I was not a hundred percent member of the band. 00:57:00.400 --> 00:57:10.559 But then after the success of that first album, you know, the the Sacred Heart album, it had uh your history on it, where I was more vocally featured. 00:57:10.800 --> 00:57:17.039 Um I was then asked to be a full member of the band, a hundred, you know, 50-50 member. 00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:25.840 The the label asked, the management asked, um everybody asked because they thought what I contributed was was integral to the sound. 00:57:26.000 --> 00:57:27.840 So I was like, Yeah, sure. 00:57:28.000 --> 00:57:35.920 So the next album, Siobhan and I just started at my little studio in my house, which is literally down the street from where I am now. 00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:37.840 It's like a half a mile down the road. 00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:40.400 So you never lived in in the UK then? 00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:41.440 Yes, I did. 00:57:41.679 --> 00:57:42.719 Okay, that was later. 00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:43.119 Okay. 00:57:43.679 --> 00:57:50.800 Um that was uh during the time of Shakespeare's sister, or right after that, a year after that started. 00:57:51.039 --> 00:57:55.440 Um long story short, I met a man who would become my husband. 00:57:55.599 --> 00:57:56.400 He was British. 00:57:56.559 --> 00:58:00.079 I would go back and forth to the UK to work with Shakespeare's sister. 00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:08.639 And eventually when we did the second album, um we ended up moving over to the UK. 00:58:09.119 --> 00:58:13.519 I I lived over there off and on for like I don't know, six years. 00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:14.960 Yeah, got it. 00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:15.440 Okay. 00:58:15.679 --> 00:58:17.599 So, so wow, that's that's wild. 00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:20.880 So Hormonally Yours, was that this the album that was? 00:58:20.960 --> 00:58:22.000 Yeah, that was the second album. 00:58:22.239 --> 00:58:22.559 Uh-huh. 00:58:22.800 --> 00:58:22.960 Yeah. 00:58:23.039 --> 00:58:23.199 Yeah. 00:58:23.440 --> 00:58:35.440 So I mean, like, yeah, I mean, I I remember this stuff and and going, oh, this is so different, and it's so progressive rock, you know, and before I knew what progressive rock even was. 00:58:35.920 --> 00:59:03.280 Um, and it it it it just had this like theatrical element to it, you know, and the videos, everything was very staged, and the you know, you got into these characters, um, and you know, there's a lot of makeup, and it was just it was it was a a theatrical musical event, you know, the videos like they were they were very um I mean I think those were the days when videos were it was like the only way. 00:59:03.360 --> 00:59:08.800 Yeah, I mean that we're thinking I think we're we've moved back to that in a way with YouTube, you know, and I love making videos, you know. 00:59:08.880 --> 00:59:21.199 It it's but you know, it's it was it's still very inspiring to me because because of the choosing these characters, you know, these the personas, you know, which is something that that a lot of singers like to do. 00:59:21.360 --> 00:59:25.920 A lot of singers don't, you know, they want to say, I don't want to dress up, I don't want to do nothing, I just want to sing the song, you know. 00:59:26.320 --> 00:59:26.880 I want to be me. 00:59:27.360 --> 00:59:28.400 I just want to be me, you know. 00:59:28.480 --> 00:59:36.960 But so the these characters that you like you specifically picked, you know, and the these roles and the video, you know, it's very dark. 00:59:37.119 --> 00:59:45.039 Like it was it was very black, you know, like it was very um uh uh um what's the word I'm looking for? 00:59:45.280 --> 01:00:07.519 Um you know, um uh I'm looking for I'm looking for a word that I can't think of, but it was it just it had this sort of uh you know, almost nightmarish kind of uh dreamy, probably at the time, maybe, but you know, it I the music was so beautiful. 01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:21.280 So it was like this stark contrast of this, like you know, very dark kind of uh horror-ish uh visual to this beautiful, this beautiful melody, beautifully sung and performed. 01:00:21.440 --> 01:00:23.360

People should check this out if they don't know it, you know. 01:00:23.440 --> 01:00:24.639 It's called Stay. 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:28.079 And uh, I mean, I it became a huge hit for you guys. 01:00:28.159 --> 01:00:34.000 Uh I think it was like it's still like one of the longest number one hits for a female group ever, isn't that true? 01:00:34.320 --> 01:00:37.519 Ever in the UK, it was number one for eight consecutive weeks. 01:00:37.679 --> 01:00:45.920 And that as of, well, recently, I heard that it was still holds the longest record for a female band at number one in the UK. 01:00:46.079 --> 01:00:47.679 Yeah, we were all really shocked. 01:00:47.840 --> 01:00:54.559 But well, but when Siobhan and I did the demo at my house, when you know, Dave, I don't know if you want to get into this story because it's kind of long. 01:00:54.880 --> 01:00:55.280 Dave Stewart. 01:00:57.280 --> 01:00:57.920 Yeah, no, go ahead. 01:00:58.000 --> 01:00:58.239 Go ahead. 01:00:58.559 --> 01:01:03.920 All right, so we were working on this album, like you said, Hormonally Yours, and we started doing recording it. 01:01:04.159 --> 01:01:14.960 Siobhan and I would meet and do the demos like um during the week, you know, we'd work from like one o'clock till eight, and then we'd go over to to their house and have dinner afterwards. 01:01:15.199 --> 01:01:36.400 Anyway, um, so one one morning on a Sunday morning, Dave and Siobhan came over, woke me up, excuse me, and um Dave, oh, we used to have these amazing parties and and incredible people would be there, like um George Harrison, um, you know, who's that? 01:01:36.480 --> 01:01:40.960 Yeah, George Harrison, um, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison. 01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:41.760 Oh my god. 01:01:42.000 --> 01:01:44.000 Um, loads of people would be at these parties. 01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:46.960 And hold on, let me just go pick up all these names that you just dropped. 01:01:47.039 --> 01:01:48.400 Hold on, I'll be right back. 01:01:48.719 --> 01:01:49.840 Yeah, right, right. 01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:52.480 Um, and and we'd all end up singing. 01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:56.639 And and I used to sing like some ballads, and Dave came over that morning with Siobhan. 01:01:56.800 --> 01:01:57.760 We were working on the album. 01:01:57.840 --> 01:01:59.519 It was a concept album. 01:01:59.679 --> 01:02:03.840 We watched this movie called Cat Wom Cat Women of the Moon. 01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:08.480 It was a B movie that that was was done in the the 50s. 01:02:08.559 --> 01:02:22.159 It was an American-made, really cheaply done B movie about these cat women that were living on the the moon, and these earthlings came, and one of the cat women, my character, um, fell in love with this earthling. 01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:30.000 And um, so we were we were writing songs about different scenes in the movie, and we wanted to get the rights to the movie, but it proved to be too expensive. 01:02:30.239 --> 01:02:35.519 But we still used that idea to for

the impetus for the album. 01:02:35.840 --> 01:02:48.079 So in this one scene, my character had fallen in love with this earthling, and and she is begging him to stay there on the moon with him. 01:02:48.159 --> 01:02:50.000 So that's how that song came about. 01:02:50.079 --> 01:03:01.760 And everything was most of the songs were visually about, you know, us being cat women, and there were always references to that, um, almost on every song. 01:03:01.840 --> 01:03:04.480 And that's that's kind of what drove us through the whole song. 01:03:04.719 --> 01:03:16.800 And as soon as we finished the song, it went through several rewrites, and I did all the all the recording for the demo at my home studio, and I just used like a Fostex 8 track at the time. 01:03:17.519 --> 01:03:36.320 But all the backing vocals and everything, um, when Chris Thomas, who was producing uh Dave's record with the Spiritual Cowboys, when we brought a little cassette tape of of the song over to the house that night, he stood up, slammed his hand down on the table, and went number one smash. 01:03:36.400 --> 01:03:38.880 And Siobhan and I looked at each other like, what? 01:03:39.519 --> 01:03:51.119 Um and then, long story short, again, when it came to recording a song, we tried doing it different ways, and Siobhan was never happy with the song. 01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:51.920 She didn't like it. 01:03:52.079 --> 01:03:58.079 She thought it was too pretty and it didn't really what Shakespeare's sister was about. 01:03:58.320 --> 01:04:03.760 Um so when it came to mixing it, uh Chris Thomas mixed it. 01:04:04.320 --> 01:04:08.480 And and he loved the backing vocals. 01:04:08.559 --> 01:04:08.960 He didn't know. 01:04:09.199 --> 01:04:13.119 Dave Stewart, Euryth mixed Dave Stewart, did he play on any of the record? 01:04:13.760 --> 01:04:15.039 Did Dave play? 01:04:15.360 --> 01:04:26.079 Um He played on some of the stuff, but he was more there as like an influence, and and he was very nurturing and encouraging. 01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:31.119 But it was, you know, he'd come in in the room and he'd go, Oh yeah, do this here, do that. 01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:33.280 He he had such an amazing ear. 01:04:33.440 --> 01:04:38.960 He he just, you know, was obviously very experienced and knew what he was doing. 01:04:39.679 --> 01:04:48.719 But mostly I was doing most of the guitars, and once in a while we would have other people, you know, play on stuff. 01:04:48.880 --> 01:04:50.079 But uh yeah. 01:04:50.800 --> 01:04:56.559 Anyway, so you know, that Chris produced it and then it was not the first single. 01:04:56.800 --> 01:05:01.360 Goodbye Crew World was the first single, but um Stay was the next single. 01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:09.280 Uh the the record company insisted be the next single, and she wasn't happy about it, but I was like There you go. 01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:10.400 What do you think? 01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:14.159 What do you think it is about that song that's so uh powerful? 01:05:14.880 --> 01:05:18.320 Is it just I mean, sometimes it's just timing with with music, you know? 01:05:18.960 --> 01:05:22.000 Yeah, uh maybe for at the time. 01:05:23.199 --> 01:05:26.639 But it's just it's pretty raw. 01:05:26.719 --> 01:05:34.400 I mean, when you listen to the beginning and and it goes all the way leapt two-thirds of the way, it's just a vocal and some keyboards. 01:05:34.880 --> 01:05:36.000 Yeah, it's super simple. 01:05:36.480 --> 01:05:54.960 And it's but it's got a very plaintiff kind of sound, and and uh and of course, as the artist, you want to capture and connect lyrically to what you're singing, you know, and and deliver that emotion because that's really what it's all about capturing that emotion. 01:05:55.440 --> 01:05:57.440 So I guess we did that. 01:05:58.079 --> 01:05:58.800 You sure did. 01:05:59.360 --> 01:05:59.760 So wow. 01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:00.239 Wow. 01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:03.920 And then uh I want I want to quickly touch on AbFab, absolutely fabulous. 01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:11.760 Jennifer Saunders, um uh uh Dina Monsoon, Patsy Stone, darling, darling, sweetie, sweetie, sweetie. 01:06:12.000 --> 01:06:13.039 I'm a huge fan, you know. 01:06:13.119 --> 01:06:27.440 I know like I know all these like episodes by heart, and and then I I didn't even connect the dots when I first because I got into abfab later, um, like maybe like right before I came to New York, maybe around 2000 or so. 01:06:27.679 --> 01:06:31.199 A friend of mine um turned me onto it and uh and I was like, What's this? 01:06:31.360 --> 01:06:33.360 He was like, Oh, you think it's it's a funny show. 01:06:33.519 --> 01:06:40.960 And because the show came out in the early 90s, and uh, but you know, in Germany, uh, people would didn't pick up on that, you know. 01:06:41.039 --> 01:06:45.360 It uh it's not people wouldn't understand the humor in Germany, you know. 01:06:45.440 --> 01:06:52.320 That you I don't even know if you could translate it in this right, it's a language thing and all the colloquialisms and everything, it wouldn't translate. 01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:54.880 It's very London, it's very English, very British. 01:06:54.960 --> 01:07:09.760 The humor's very British, you know, it deals with uh pub publicity, pop, you know, like pop culture, and so I I but over the years, you know, like she's had so many stars um on on the shows, you know. 01:07:09.840 --> 01:07:24.239 Um and it became so it was, you know, it was a I mean they wanted to quit after three seasons, and then it just started becoming like more and more popular, especially with the gay community, and they kind of like you know, the gays no, the gays not. 01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:27.519 The gays no gays no, the gays don't cool the gays. 01:07:27.760 --> 01:07:28.639 They can't, you can't. 01:07:28.719 --> 01:07:30.000 They they either like you or you don't. 01:07:30.079 --> 01:07:31.519 When if they like you, they love you. 01:07:31.760 --> 01:07:34.079

01:07:50.559 --> 01:07:59.519 And um, and I think they they were they were gonna just you know stop the the the show altogether, but it went on and still going. 01:07:59.599 --> 01:08:01.360 I think they're doing something new this year. 01:08:01.679 --> 01:08:02.480 I heard about this. 01:08:02.800 --> 01:08:16.079 I heard about that too, and I'm like, I'm thrilled about it, you know, because I mean that the humor, one of the interesting about interesting things about absolutely fabulous is it's so politically incorrect and so offensive, which I love, you know, because it's humor. 01:08:16.319 --> 01:08:29.520 And uh, you know, we've we've been living through this this uh very sad era of you know everyone getting offended at everything, and there's nothing you can do to not offend people, it seems these days. 01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:30.640 But I think it's changing. 01:08:30.800 --> 01:08:36.479 I think we're starting to move back into a more you know into a more nuanced time. 01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:37.119 I'm hoping. 01:08:37.359 --> 01:08:38.239 I'm hoping I don't know. 01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:39.359 I do, I do. 01:08:39.600 --> 01:08:45.039 No, I mean, like of course, you know, politics are politics, and it's always gonna be just, you know, it's it is what it is. 01:08:45.119 --> 01:08:48.640 But I think, yes, I do think that because I think we need that. 01:08:48.800 --> 01:08:50.479 I think we need nuance. 01:08:50.640 --> 01:08:53.359 We need it, can't just all be black and white, like it, you know. 01:08:53.439 --> 01:08:55.600 I don't think we're gonna get anywhere with that. 01:08:55.760 --> 01:09:03.279 I think we need more nuance in in culture, in society, in music, in art, you know, and I think music already has music, always has it. 01:09:03.439 --> 01:09:05.600 Music always brings people together, you know. 01:09:05.680 --> 01:09:11.359 You can have completely different political views and love the same song and go to the same concert, you know. 01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:15.920 And so, so that's to me, that's why that's why that's part of the reason I love music. 01:09:16.159 --> 01:09:16.960 No, I think it's true. 01:09:17.039 --> 01:09:17.439 I think so. 01:09:17.600 --> 01:09:18.399 I think so. 01:09:18.640 --> 01:09:32.960 And um, so uh anyway, I'm I'm getting uh I'm I digress, but but but getting back to to Abfab, so I didn't even put two and two together when I remember seeing that episode and and loving it because it's very funny. 01:09:33.039 --> 01:09:41.760 It's like you know, Saffron, her daughter gets married, and you know it it's a very it's it's very all very weird, and they go they go skiing in in somewhere. 01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.079 That's one of the songs I wrote for that. 01:09:46.239 --> 01:09:46.479 Yeah. 01:09:46.880 --> 01:10:13.520 So so uh so and I I didn't even realize that it's the same person, you know, Marcella Detroit, Shakespeare's sister, so so you're one of those people that have have had their hand, foot, feet, you know, mind in a lot of different things, not just as a singer and guitarist, but also as a writer, also as an actor. 01:10:13.680 --> 01:10:17.119 You act you act in the in the uh show, in that episode. 01:10:17.359 --> 01:10:21.359 You wrote the songs for the uh for for the uh for that episode. 01:10:21.600 --> 01:10:27.039 And and with all these different people from all these different uh places. 01:10:27.199 --> 01:10:33.600 So you it's very it's very universal, like how you're you know, you're you're meshing in there, you know. 01:10:33.680 --> 01:10:35.119 And that's my job. 01:10:35.680 --> 01:10:36.239 It's wonderful. 01:10:36.399 --> 01:10:41.199 It's really wonderful, and I think that's what you know that's what creates success. 01:10:41.359 --> 01:10:49.039 I really think that it's collaboration and also being able to do more than one thing and trying something, taking risks, you know. 01:10:49.279 --> 01:11:11.119 So um you said Jennifer Saunders came to one of your shows and well, yeah, after when I when I did my my solo album after Shakespeare Shakespeare broke up, and I did my jewel album, I was doing the promotion for it, and and Jennifer came to one of my shows, and and the next thing I knew, I met her. 01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:21.520 I remember being out in the audience like beforehand, because sometimes I just get too I go too far up my own ass and I get really like too nervous and start thinking too much. 01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:26.399 So I just needed to be like in touch with people, you know, talk to people before I went on. 01:11:26.560 --> 01:11:31.760 And as I was walking through the crowd, I saw her and she was like, Oh, hello, and gave me a big hug. 01:11:31.840 --> 01:11:34.000 And and I'm like, Oh my god, you're here, that's amazing. 01:11:35.039 --> 01:11:35.760 You knew who she was?
