Hey everybody this is Isaac. It is Friday, October 22, 1999, and you’ve reached the Hanson Hotline. Well, ah, we’ve had a lot of different things go on in the studio. We had Jonny Lang come in and play some guitar. We had John Popper come in on Wednesday after his House of Blues show and come and play a little bit of harmonica and also we had a choir come in and sing, which was really wonderful to have them come sing on a couple of songs. Actually Rose Stone from Sly & The Family Stone was the, ah, choir conductor which was really cool. And actually they, ah, sang “Happy Birthday” to Zac, which was really fun. Here’s a recording of it here... “... birthday to ya, happy birthday to ya, happy birthday, happy birthday to ya, happy birthday to ya, happy birthday! As you can tell, it was very fun to have them sing and that was a wonderful experience.
