It's a real great way to market the show. This is finally the year a show like this can happen.

So these are very sensitive issues.

There are songs that I've written that I've actually just hummed on - there's a song on one of the albums they have there on the Internet called "My Love Was True" and it's almost operatic. I can't play it. But I can sing it.
