00:05Give it up for Lindsey Buckingham, come on!
00:09Absolute legend.
00:11What an honor it is to be receiving a songwriter award from the one and only Lindsey Buckingham.
00:19If you were telling me from one year ago this, he would just think you're a crazy person.
00:28Wow, okay.
00:30Thank you, Variety, for this honor.
00:33I really appreciate the support.
00:35It's amazing.
00:36I write all my songs alone in my bedroom, and to be recognized in this incredible setting is humbling.
00:44So thank you.
00:47Songwriting is the reason I'm alive.
00:49My mind can go to dark places, and it feels like the only thing I can turn to is writing
00:54songs.
00:55And while songwriting is technically my job, it's really my therapy.
01:01And it's my way of speaking when I don't have the ability to do so any other way.
01:06I'd like to thank my fans because I would not be on this stage without them.
01:11It's all them.
01:12It's all them.
01:13I love my fans.
01:15And thank you again, Lindsey.
01:17Like, seriously, like, I'm over here wanting to cry because I am just forever in awe of you.
01:23I'm a super fan, and you, you know, there wouldn't be me without you.
01:29You're one of my biggest influences, and you're just a complete legend.
01:34So thank you, Lindsey.
01:35Thank you, guys.
01:36Thank you, guys.
