paroles de chanson Intro to The Best (Live at The Red Room, Chicago, 9/7/2023) - Mike Maimone

Alright, so I, I thought about ending the record there
That felt like a good fun outro
But then I realize there's one more song and it's
The most important song and it's
The one that Howard made me record for my mixtape

I have this record called "Mookie's Gay Mixtape"
Um, thank you
And as I was putting it together he said
What about your version of "The Best"?
And I was like, eh it's kind of like a Schitt's Creek rip off
Like, I don't really feel like I brought anything to that song
And he's like no, it's a great cover
You need to record that and put it on there and, um

I'm glad that I did I got to play it for him, ah
Before he went to the hospital and
Then he was playing it for his nurses and
It was very embarrassing but he was but, yeah
So I'm glad I got to play it for him and
I realize I need to do that for his tribute, um
But it didn't feel right to do it in the same key

I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
It just felt too, too up so I thought
Maybe to make it more intimate I'd drop it
I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire

I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
And that was the one I felt like
That's the very bottom of my range and
All I can do there is whisper and it felt like

This song is just a whisper from me directly to Howard
So this is, this is for you Howard, it's "The Best"
