why anyone necessarily connects to my music.
I don't mean that to sound, I don't know what that sounds like, but I mean that very honestly.
When I write, I have written all these songs, I will record them.
And I actually remember thinking, this isn't even a song.
Songs that have become some of my biggest hits, I remember thinking, we are the dinosaurs.
I was like,
is this a dumb song?
Like, I don't even know what this song is, but I love singing it with the kids.
And then people were like, this is the best song my kids love.
I don't know why they do, but I notice when kids respond to something and I feel like, oh, this is the kind of thing that I feel like maybe I would have liked when I was younger or I see a kid responding to.
And so I just keep going with it.
Like this song, I have Pig on Her Head, which is just, I just wrote it because this kid wouldn't start music class with me
would not take this animal off of his head and I was like I can sit here and fight with him or I can just start singing about this and then we'll have class so I started singing about him having the pig on his head and all the kids ran and got animals and put them on their head and I was like okay we definitely have a song so you know it just kept going with it and I remember trying to record that song and I was like this isn't I don't even know if I should put this on it was on the I can't remember what album it's on my second album
It's like, I don't even know if this is a song, but I'm just going to put it on here.
And it grew.
And when I do it in concert, we like touch our noses and touch our toes to our nose.
I mean, it's like it just became a much bigger thing because of the interaction with kids.
And I feel like there's something that happens when kids...
all differently, all wired kids, like differently wired, wired that we say is not different, whatever, but particularly actually, like you're saying, differently wired kids do, there is this strong connection that doesn't go away.
It's like they, I so wish I understood it.
