Alright, let me, oh, oops.
Hello, hello.
How's it going?
Is it working?
Right now we're gonna, uh,
we're gonna do something dangerous.
We're gonna do a new song.
Now,
I know this is a mistake.
It's always a mistake.
How are you gonna like a new song?
It's a song that you've never heard before.
[A#] It's gonna be hard.
But, here's the thing.
It makes us feel good.
We wanna do it, see?
It's good for us.
So here's, here's the deal.
I'm gonna ask you a favor, okay?
It's not that long.
Only about five minutes.
And here's what I'd like you to do.
When the, when the song is over,
no matter what you think of this song,
pretend like you love it.
Because,
because that'll make us feel great, see?
And then we'll play better,
and you'll put that more fun in.
It's kind of a win-win, you know?
Alright?
And it's got kind of, um,
it's got kind of an ironic title.
It's a little tongue-in-cheek.
Uh, well, you'll hear it.
You'll feel it now.
It's called
While We're Young.
