Two-to-two step, again, another hook that Josh Osborne kind of came to a co-write with.We are always trying to avoid a shuffle when we're writing songs.So I believe that one might have even started as an up-tempo shuffle.We're like, man, we've got to straighten that thing out.And once we did and kind of fall into a groove, that one, that song,when you're writing fun songs like that, most of the time they're a lot easier to come bybecause you're not overthinking much.Clearly, I mean, Two-to-Wango was a lyric that was a placeholder that never left, really,and actually has become one of my favorite lyrics that we've ever writtenbecause it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.But that song ends up, you know, when you record up-tempo tracks, too, in the studio,it has a tendency to bring a lot of life to a session.And we found, I feel like, a few different tones that we hadn't used before or recorded before.And in some synthesizers and stripping out piano,we really invented a new sound for ourselves as far as up-tempo songs go.And it's a lot of fun to play live, too.So it's not easy to sing, consequently, the high harmony on that one.It's really high.It's got a lot of ZZ top in it.A lot of high up there, yeah.So much of the music that we write and we perform, for me, is very nostalgic.And it is a way to revive the past and to bring it into the future.It's one of my favorite places to be, is in a good, smoky honky-tonk.I mean, irreverent and sometimes the most profound conversationsand some of the most mystical, intelligent people you ever meet will be in these places.Unexpected, but it adds to the mysticism of this place.And they need to be protected.And that music that takes you to that place, I think, is always going to be in demand.And serving a very important purpose.
