“You know, it was awesome. You know seeing that Tracy had heard my cover and that she liked it. Was so awesome. You know, I think you know when you’re an artist and you cover someone’s song you always want the validation of you know, the songwriter or the original artist, you kind of want that you know approval. And so that was super awesome and I’m very thankful for it.”
