Speaker 9: I'm a simple guy. I'm a regular citizen and I'll have to get I'll have to grow out of it, I guess. But I'll never forget who I am, and I'll always think of the people first.
Speaker 8: Always think of the people first. Remember your roots. You know, you see the same people on your way down that you saw on the way up. Yeah, so that's important.
Speaker 9: Here's a question for the audience. Yes, when I do the dance, the last dance, it's by Daniel BETTEPETI I don't know if I'm noting that right, but and I do it in English, parts of it in French, and then the last paragraph is done in a different language, and no one's figured out which language it is yet. At the end of the show, I will tell.
Speaker 8: You so you but you save that part for the last paragraph of the song?
Speaker 9: Yes, yes, it's specific.
Speaker 8: Yes, I understand okay, so what would you like to perform? First for us, we'll let Glenn come with me from uh from the.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 8: For people watching the video, I should explain because they're about to see something unusual that they don't see typically on the program. I'm going to actually turn this monitor toward you so they I believe it's pronound mulan rouge. Correct.
Speaker 9: Yes, I'm French.
Speaker 8: Yes, because you said it like like some people, you know, lame is that they pronounce it less miserables because they don't know.
Speaker 9: Yes French.
Speaker 8: Yes, you're French, so you know, you know the right way to say.
Speaker 9: And you'll find that I really am French to the point that they say, oh he really rolls his ours.
Speaker 8: Yes, people, I can't roll my rs. Yeah, I don't know any any French really, I know, like I know.
Speaker 9: Like uh we we uh pepe pooh poo, oh my god.
Speaker 8: That's about it. Okay. So so what we're gonna do is, so I'm gonna start the song and then I'm going to as quickly as I can, I'm going to turn the monitor towards you so that you can read the lyrics. Do you are are any of the songs that you do live. Have you memorized the pair of raps as you say?
Speaker 9: Yes, some of them?
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 9: The thing is that right now in my right eyes eight line oh and uh and I uh, and I know about a thousand songs, and at my age, you're not gonna know a thousand songs by heart.
Speaker 8: That's true.
Speaker 9: So that's a handicap for me, and so I'm using it as my benefit for me to perform I need in case I forget the words, they're there.
Speaker 8: I was recently reading a study about neurology and memory and so forth, and apparently the uh, it's estimated the average musician is able to memorize somewhere between nine hundred and fifty and nine hundred and seventy five songs. You're young, so if you're going for a thousand, yeah, you're kind of you're you're over the you're over the cap. I read that online somewhere, so obviously it's true. Okay, let me get the volume up here. So I'm going to start the song, and as quickly as I can, I'm gonna turn.
Speaker 8: I'm gonna turn this monitor, and then we'll be ready to go. If you are just joining us, we have will let Glenn the artist. If I said, is it is it the artist will let Glenn or is it will let Glenn the the artist? Or does it matter?
Speaker 9: Well, like lend the artist is fine?
Speaker 8: And is there a comma involved or a dash?
Speaker 9: How do you?
Speaker 8: Okay? You just will let lend the artists?
Speaker 9: Okay, I will tell you that I do my own special effects.
Speaker 8: You do special effects? Yes, you'll hear it like like like you make noises? Yeah?
Speaker 9: Oh with the I do like some instruments.
Speaker 1: Oh uh I I do.
Speaker 9: I do an opening, a closing.
Speaker 1: What they do? Wow?
Speaker 9: But they do what a normal artist has for the music, for the for the for the openings, in that in the middle when it's just music. Yes, I do something, Oh you do. I'll need to continue singing adding my own words. All my songs at cover songs, okay, which makes them my song?
Speaker 8: Right? How do you what's your logic behind that? How does that make your song?
Speaker 9: If I ever ever chose to do an album, I can't use every word it's in that song that's pleasury.
Speaker 8: Oh so I have to use You don't want to commit pleasuring?
Speaker 9: No, I have to do. I have to do a cover song, yes, Okay, that's reality.
Speaker 8: Right, I understand. Have you ever considered writing your own songs, your own music?
Speaker 9: You're a creative guy, Yes, I have. I now have a software that was installed two weeks ago and I'm learning how to use it and I'll actually be able to do my own album at home. I had my own studio with the house. Oh very good, very good, own nix and everything.
Speaker 8: So yeah, yeah, all right, I was gonna sugget I mean, someone of your caliber you might want to consider, you know, well, but it costs a lot of money.
Speaker 10: To it actually recorded.
Speaker 9: Everything's digital today, yes, so you don't see no more tapes than CDs that much, right, right, my music would become out digital. I'm now talking with Spotify. If I could get on Spotify, that would be great.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, who are you talking with at Spotify? Or you're talking to the head guy there, mister Spotify himself?
Speaker 9: Probably not they they said they they they signed me somewhere.
Speaker 8: Need to go right to the top, Glen. Okay, talk to mister Spotify. I think his first name is Bill. All right, so I'm gonna I'm gonna start this. I'm gonna turn the monitor and uh, come, what may come what may as performed by We'll let Glenn the artist. Okay, here we go. I'm pressing play.

And when he heard that sound all the kids laughing in the background, he had to wipe away a tear from his eyes. A little voice came on that phone said, Daddy, when are you coming home?
Speaker 1: He said, the.
Speaker 9: First thing that came to his mind because I'm all already there. Just take a look, take a look around. On that sunshine in your hair. I'm that shadow on that ground. I'm your whisper in the wind. I'm your imaginary friend, and I know that I'm in your prayer. Oh, I'm all already there. I'm already there. She got back on that telephone, said, I really miss you, my darling. Don't worry about the kids.
Speaker 1: They'll be all right.
Speaker 9: I wish I was in your arms tonight, laying right there beside you, But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 9: And I'll gently kiss your lips, touch you with your fingertips. So turn out the lights and close your eyes, because I'm all already there. Don't you make a sound to night? On the beat in your heart, on that moon light shining down. You're with her in the wind. Come and I'll be there until the end. Can you see that love that we see? But I'm all already there. We may be a thousand a thousand miles of how but I'll be with you wherever you are. I'm all already there. To take a look, Take a look around.
Speaker 9: I'm that shun shine in your hair. I'm the shadow on that ground. I'm your whisper in the wind, and I'll be there until the end. Can you keep the love that we share.
Speaker 9: I'm already there yet, I'm all already because I'm already there. Yes, I'm already there. Thank you.
Speaker 8: Wow. Well, let Glenn the artist. But that song, you know, I never really paid much attention to the lyrics before. I feel like it's about Uh, it's about the supernatural, like he's threatening to be a ghost and haunt this person. You know, I'm the shadow on the ground. I mean that's creepy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 9: What about the part about don't make a sound? Yeah that kind of creeped me out a bit.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that'd be a good Halloween song.
Speaker 9: I added that, Oh you had it. It came right behind the shadow things, so it made sense.
Speaker 8: Oh that, yes, shadow on the ground, don't make a sound.
Speaker 9: Remember I make these songs on my own sooky.
Speaker 8: You made the song spooky. I like that a little, a little Halloween swist.
Speaker 1: Non need that.
Speaker 9: I also need it a little bit spiritual that you've lost someone.
Speaker 8: I may have taken it the wrong way.
Speaker 9: I'm still there.
Speaker 8: Oh okay, I'm sorry. Sometimes I misinterpret things. But that's something about art, right, you know, you can you can interpret it different ways, you know, And I uh choose to interpret that as somebody dies and they come back as a ghost and they're haunting the person doing scary things, and it's like it turns into like an Amityville horror kind of situation than I guess. So oh, by the way, So speaking of creativity, So our friend, you know, Dan Dan Randlett, also known as Dan Randall of Dan Randall and the Randletts.
Speaker 8: He also has a stage name. Yes, he says in the chat room, this is a masterclass of vocal control, reminiscent of later Sinatra or even Tony Bennett, amazingly beautiful in a style we don't necessarily hear in this day and age, all without auto tune and other overprocessing.
Speaker 9: And I do both those artists very well.
Speaker 8: Yes you do, and you're humble about it.
Speaker 9: Now, why shouldn't I be? I was raised with that music. I was born in Pitty two.
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, so all right, well, very good? You want to do another one. I don't know if we're going to get through all of these necessarily, but I know the audience wants to hear more one is.
Speaker 9: Actually it's better Roses. It's ben Jovi.
Speaker 8: Oh, this song makes me blush when I hear it. I wonder if I'll have that reaction when you sing it.
Speaker 9: It's a long song.
Speaker 8: This is a long song, probably bon Jovi's longest song.
Speaker 9: Is that why you chose probably my longest?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 9: I like this song? Yes, Yes, every song I do is a challenge, and I love a challenge.
Speaker 8: Yes. He also uses a stage name. Did you know that?
Speaker 6: What is he?
Speaker 8: John bon Jovi? Is not his real name?
Speaker 1: Probably not.
Speaker 8: I believe it's Bonjee of bon gioviy. I think it's bon Giov but he made it bon Jovi. All right, So so this is beat of Roses? And why this song, Glen, It's very romantic.
Speaker 9: First of all, I am a romantic.
Speaker 8: I've heard that about.
Speaker 9: Yes again, the songs that I sing and what I injected them is my life. Okay, how I've lived my life?
Speaker 8: All right, So you're going to inject some romance with this song? I will all right?
Speaker 9: Very good, very good. This is a first on the radio on this one. I've done it on my TV show last week. Oh and I've been doing it for the last week now in the karaoke so it's I think I'm ready for it.
Speaker 8: Wait, so this is the first time that that live, that that this version of the song, that your rendition of bet of Roses will be played on the radio. Well, in that case, you're listening.
Speaker 2: To Taluminate.
