Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction unplugged because we will always say
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged. Wow.
Wherever we go anymore, it just seems like we're so
addicted to just bad news. I mean, we don't like
receiving bad news, but it just seems like we're always
bumping into more bad news. And the more bad news
that we get ourselves caught up in, we just become
a little bit more numb because here it comes again,
some more bad news. Your shoulders go down, your back
begins to get a bow in it. It's like, oh man,
the weight of the world. Please no bad news today.
And then we get more bad news. It's almost like
we are a magnet. We are going give me some
more because I need some drama, I need some action.
I need something so I can compare it to my
bad news. Talks about that in her book The Artist Way,
that we tend to look at bad news to compare
our lives too, so we can sit there and say,
I guess my life really isn't that bad. I'm okay, Yeah,
keep moving forward. Hey, Sara, this is the choice. This
is what I was writing while the sun was waking
up on a brilliant new day. You know the world
is going to hell when Daryl Hall and John Oates
are battling it out in the headlines. I mean, we're
living a Beatles moment in the way that creative collaborators
have had enough with each other. But is that the
real story? I mean, two weeks ago, when I first
came across this, I thought, uh uh, this is click bait.
I'm not even gonna touch this story. Now, every TV
morning show is trying to be the expert. None of
us know of their agreements. None of us have walked
in their personal experiences. Yet a lot of us we've
got an opinion as to what we think we would
do if it were our decision. I think it's time
that fans need a step free of this scene and
the press, the journalists stop printing headlines and paragraphs. Nobody
likes a breakup, especially this one, because it's going to
change the way that we listen to the music of
Holland Oates. No Beatles tune hits my ears without me
thinking what really went on? Was it really Yoko or
was there something else that kind of broke them up.
I can't listen to a Beatles song because of that.
It's only human, though, to ask yourself this question, what
if they didn't break up? What if they didn't have
this discussion that they can't agree with? What if? But
we can't answer it because we're not walking in their shoes.
We don't know what led up to it. We don't
know how it's going to lead away. All we are
are armchair quarterbacks going ooh, this is better than the
wa wow mma. In the music department, stop stop, you're
not being fair to each in every memory you hold
because of the music that was created by Holland Oates.
Just stop. Let them work it out. I'm arrow, and
that's what I was writing while the sun was waking
up on a brilliant new day.
