What is it like to have happened to me go
number one?

Speaker 2 (01:44):
I mean this one, I mean, this is my fastest
climbing single of my entire career, and so I just like,
I'm kind of shocked. Honestly, I'm in I'm still in
shocked that. Like, I mean, the song came out basically
in March and now here we are early in September
and it's number one, which is this wild because I mean,

(02:05):
by far my biggest song yet, which is crazy.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
What's it like when you're up there on stage and
you start singing the song because I've seen it firsthand,
and people start doing the dance and they get super
super into it, Like the energy is amazing.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah. They literally as soon as the three guitar notes
is all, it takes down, down, down, and they're just
like yeah. And then and to see people like doing
the wave with their hand and everything, it just like
it makes me so happy. Like it feels like we
have this like whole big community family of people that

(02:40):
just like love to have fun, like not don't give
a freak about what anybody thinks. We're just here to
you know, be ourselves and have a freaking blast doing it.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Is this, like do you think this song is your
iconic song, like like Rick Springfield's Got Jesse's Girl, which
has stood the test of time for what fifty years?
I mean, do I kind of get a feeling like
this song may be that kind of thing for you,
except you have a lot more hits than Rick Springfield,
you know, but this is kind of like you're big.
This is the one that everyone's gonna be playing in

(03:11):
the bars forever, the single long.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, I hope, So, I mean, I honestly hope. So
it's just you know, it's cool to see you know,
cover bands already playing it and I've but that's the
whole thing, Like the whole environment is made it is
for this song. And then you know, like the bar
vibe and you know, now she's on the dance floor
singing girls just want to have fun. You know. It's
like I I'm honored, Yeah, I'm honored.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
So how do you top it? Like, what's next? You
know what I mean? Like, do we do a ballad next?
Kind of even things up?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Mellow, We're we're we're pedaled down, dude, We're gonna we're
bringing the heat still good. We're not gonna, We're not
letting off the gas. I've had enough ballads, by the way,
so I'm ready to uh, I'm ready to pick up
the energy, pick up the vibe in the tempo of

album just came out. Album just came out on the
August twenty second, So I mean off of that, I

I Love You. I posted on Instagram and I was like,

(04:27):

next single should be, And I mean the comments were
just popping off, and I really think it's a close
fifty to fifty between what Worth Your Wild and love
That I Love You? So you know, I do have
a lot of love songs, so that's you know, that
makes me lean towards worth your wild But hey, all
you listeners, go go find that, find my post and
