00:00Chauncey, it's beautiful. It's beautiful. Yeah, Chauncey's a freak. He's crazy.

00:13This, you know, as songwriters, you know, they're always constantly telling you, you know, put a

00:22girl in it or do this and do that. You know, you're also trying to write a bit of what you're living

00:28out there and what's in your heart and what's on your mind. But a buddy of mine walked through the

00:35door of a room that we were writing in that day and walked in with this title as a joke. He goes,

00:41heavens to Betsy, boys. What do you think about that? As a song title, and I didn't really know

00:51what it meant. I was like, what? And my brain just took it literal. So I drew a line from up there

00:58down to here on planet Earth. And I was like, well, that's one hell of a scene. And ain't nobody

01:04going to be scoring that today. So I held that with me while we wrote this thing. And it's,

01:12I don't know, it's wild, folks. It's real wild. But this song just went as of this morning, I guess I

01:22can finally officially say it, that it, it, it went its way all the way up to number one.

01:27You know, it's, I love you. I love you so much.

01:39That was planned. That was planned. Good timing.

01:46But I just, you've ever listened to this song and just thank you to everybody who helped me along

01:52the way. I know many of you are in the room tonight and just, it's wild that a song like this ran up

01:58the charts. It truly is. And I don't know. Anyway, I'll stop talking, but thank you.

02:08I dropped it down for a minute. Let me chill.

02:24Now, heavens to birds, I don't know if you can hear me, but I hear you coming in clear as a bell.

02:47Now, heavens to birds, I finally quit the drinking.

02:54So I hate you that my demons put you through hell.

03:02You ready?
