I'm watching, and this Scotty Moore, who I didn't know his name at the time, but he's just playing this otherworldly stuff, and that was, I looked at that, and I mean, literally my head made, I don't know, I said this to myself, I don't know what they're doing.

But that's what I want to do.

Wow.

And I made up my mind right there in that three minutes of that song.
