david knows round tests
I did my first round of chemotherapy on Monday. David knows about all of the tests going on.
answering call david hit labor people phone remember sounds yes
It was me, David and one phone line. David was up here on Labor Day answering phones. People would call up and say, 'This sounds like David' and he'd say, 'Uh, yes sir.' Then they'd say, 'I remember that 5-wood you hit in Atlanta.
david guy year
David has always been kind of a back-page guy and this year he's been front-page stuff.
coming high low peaks seem systems
We seem to have high peaks and low points, but more systems always seem to be coming in.
Wow, he made another one. He made another birdie.
color different canvas
There is no old Adam Young, there is no new Adam Young, merely different colors and different brushstrokes over the same canvas.
long people guy
I'm a very introverted guy, so I don't need to be around people for as long as someone who's very extroverted to get that sort of social fix per se.
weed memories eye
It's funny how insomnia has a way of hauling faded memories up from the cellar of the mind, unearthing buried bits of nostalgia from deep within and spreading the broken, jagged pieces out in front of you like a display of junk at a garage sale. It makes you feel cheap and guilty when you didn't do a thing in the world to kindle the dull burn in your veins or the sting in your eyes. Some nights the painful past unexpectedly pushes up through the floorboards like an ugly nightmarish weed, and by doing so, cultivates and nurtures an entirely new species of headache.
mistake voice track
When you listen to someone sing from inside their head, their same mix, and you listen to their voice as loud as they like it, or the track of the band as low as they like it, you can really hear all of the nuances and the mistakes if there are any.
sight firsts married
I've definitely had a few moments in my life where I've seen somebody and it's blown me away at first sight, but I guess of those few scenarios, none of them have been like... I'm not married.
faithful-servants done lines
As I’m so often reminded what a priceless gift my life is, I ache with everything in me to make it count, so that when I finally cross the finish line, I’ll hear the words, 'Well done, good and faithful servant.
moving order next
Usually, whatever's in front of me is what I'm focused on and it's 100% on that and then I kind of move from one thing to the next. Like, if I go to a restaurant and I order food, I always just eat one thing at a time.
nice home doors
I tend to have to just get away from it all, so it is nice when touring to be able to come home for a week or two and close the door and not really see anybody.
hands trying saturn
I'd probably go to see Saturn first-thing and see as close to those rings as I can get and see if I can fly by one of them and try and put one of my hands through them.
