00:00Now, we were just talking about that song, I Love This Live.
00:02It was originally written and pitched to Garth Brooks,
00:05who said, oh my gosh, no, I'm not going to record it.
00:08Correct.
00:09We get out there, and Garth, his buddy comes over to us
00:12and says, hey, man, Garth wants to talk to you guys.
00:16I'm like, what?
00:18Brooks?
00:19Garth Brooks?
00:20Who's Garth?
00:21Yeah.
00:21So we go over, and he's like, hey, guys, I just want you to know, man,
00:24I'm hearing a lot about you guys,
00:25and I really appreciate everything you're doing out there,
00:28the positivity you sing about, and he's like, I heard that I love this life.
00:34I didn't get past it.
00:36He goes, I want to tell you, I'm sorry for that.
00:38And we're like, no, no, no, man, I mean, it changed our life.
00:40I'm kind of glad you didn't cut it.
00:42He goes, man, that's such a funny story because when I got to town,
00:46I wrote a song for George Strait, and he didn't cut it.
00:50It was called Much Too Young to Feel This Damn Old.
00:52Oh, wow.
00:54And he said that he was my first number one, and that changed my life.
00:59And he goes, and you know, I'll never forget it.
01:01I was sitting there at the Hall of Fame and going in there
01:04and being inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame.
01:06I'm sitting there in the crowd, and George Strait comes out
01:09and sings Much Too Young to Feel This Damn Old.
01:11That's really chilling.
01:13Oh, wow.
01:13Oh, my.
01:14So he said, and literally straight in my eyes and said,
01:17so I promise you, when you get inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame,
01:23I will sing I Love This Life for you.
01:25Hey, let's go.
01:26That's a promise.
01:27That is a promise.
01:28I hugged him so hard.
01:29And he's a hugger.
01:30I love you.
01:31He's a hugger, man.
01:32He's a big bear.
01:33That's for sure.
01:33He's a nice dude.
01:34Really nice dude.
