       █████▌    ███▌ as fast as I could lay it down on my   ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  computer. A friend of mine, a country   ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   artist, was coming over one morning to   ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
     ▄▄▄     ▀▀██▄    try a co-write. I woke up still unsure    ▄██▀▀■   ▀████▄

 ▐████▌      ▄▄▓▓█▓▌  too country myself, so I got out of the ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
  ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀   shower with about a couple hours to      ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
    ▀▀███▀▄█████▀     spare before the session, with a mind to   ▀█████▄
        ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄   throw down a couple of rough beats. I've ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
       ▐█████    ▐█▓  always believed that Al Green and Otis  ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ Redding are pretty much common ground  ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  for all great song writers, so I threw  ▓██▓  ▄█████▀

       ▐███▌▄█████▀   think the message in the song is so      ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
 ▄    ▄███▄█████▀     important. It's a totally up beat break-up ▀█████▄
  ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄   song. This track is going to get a lot   ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄

  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   how the song came together, "One         ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████
 ▐████▌      ▄▄▓▓█▓▌  afternoon when I dropped by his place   ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
  ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀   he said he had a song. He'd only been    ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
    ▀▀███▀▄█████▀     playing guitar for a couple of months, but ▀█████▄
        ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄   he started strumming to give me an idea  ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
       ▐█████    ▐█▓  and I liked it right away. I turned on  ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ his 8 track to record it. I got him to ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  keep playing by telling him I'd get the ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   guitar replayed later. I never did.      ▀█████████
             ▀▀██▄    Something about the way he played made me ▄██▀▀███   ▀ ▄
   ▄▄▄▄▄       ▐██▓   write one of the most beautiful songs on ▓██▌ ████▄   ▄█▌
  ▀  ▀▀███▄   ▄▓▓█▓▌  the record. If anyone else had played   ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀

  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   "I won't say much, so people can attach  ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████

       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  the sweet melodies and heavy grooves,   ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   but because of the issues they deal      ▀█████████

   ▄▄▄▄▄       ▐██▓   spirituality. According to Neale, "I     ▓██▌ ████▄   ▄█▌
  ▀  ▀▀███▄   ▄▓▓█▓▌  want to remind people that we've got a  ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀

 ▄    ▄███▄█████▀     things we don't like in this world. People ▀█████▄

         ▀▀███████▀   voices to help change things beyond      ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄

  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   Temptations, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████

  ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀   people's bodies, their minds and their   ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
    ▀▀███▀▄█████▀     attitudes. I think music needs to start    ▀█████▄
