   So this is the, the power of music. Um, I told my wife that you were coming on, and she s- I don't wanna get emotional. She said if I die, on my funeral, I want her song I'm Coming Home.

   Yeah.

8. SGSkylar Grey0:34

   Oh, my God.

9. JRJoe Rogan0:34

   I was like, "Ooh." I was like, "That's a heavy thought."

10. SGSkylar Grey0:38

    Wow.

11. JRJoe Rogan0:38

    And then I listened to it in the gym, and I was like, "God damn." I listened to the version where you were, um, on the piano. It was like a solo concert. And I was like, "God." That's such a... It's such a great song, but it's such a d- such a crazy thought-

12. SGSkylar Grey0:55

    Yeah

13. JRJoe Rogan0:56

14. SGSkylar Grey0:58

19. JRJoe Rogan1:03

    You know? It's heavy.

20. SGSkylar Grey1:03

    Heavy way to start the podcast. [laughs]

21. JRJoe Rogan1:05

    I know, but, but that's, uh, you know, that's the emotion of real music.

22. SGSkylar Grey1:12

    Yeah.

23. JRJoe Rogan1:12

    You know?

24. SGSkylar Grey1:12

    Mm-hmm.

25. JRJoe Rogan1:13

    It's like you sent me a text message about, uh, AI, you know, because you sent me one of your songs.

26. SGSkylar Grey1:18

    Mm-hmm.

27. JRJoe Rogan1:18

    And you're like, "AI is never gonna recreate this."

28. SGSkylar Grey1:23

    I said something like, "I don't think it's capable of writing stuff with this much emotion yet."

29. JRJoe Rogan1:28

    Yeah. Well, it's not real, you know?

30. SGSkylar Grey1:30

    Yeah.
