I don't get a lot of Spotify play. It's not like earning any money. I've had letters from... people who are playing that Well-Loved Ones Die or people who are in hospice work who use that with their clients or therapists who are playing. And it's important to me that those songs are useful tools to people who are going through things I went through.

It's quite a record. But I didn't want to do a record that was... How could you leave me? You're breaking my heart. And even that song, Grief and Praise, was the last song I wrote. I'd finished recording. We were finishing tracking for the record. So we'd done basic tracks on everything. And I'd read that Martin Prechtel book and the concept of grief and praise I had wanted to put in there.

I had this image in my head of the well of sorrow being fed by the spring of hope. I wanted that. And I hadn't spoken directly on the album to my children. And I hadn't spoken directly to my first wife either. And I didn't want a middle finger. I wanted something that was like, this is bigger than us. We're not bad people.

Yeah. And got together young and just a lot of history. And just, I knew there were these like five things that I wanted to put in a song that I had no idea how to tie them together and literally wrote that entire song the night before I recorded it. Wow. We'd done everything, woke up the next morning. I had not played the song all the way through.

We completed the recording and that's for me, the most important song on the record. Sometimes that happens.
