In My Dreams pt. 2
| Me: | Hi Brian Wilson. |
| Brian Wilson: | Hi Barton. I really enjoy your melodies. You've got a good ear for this kind of stuff - it comes from an appreciation of jazz and showtunes which I know we share. |
| Me: | Yeah, I love Gershwin in particular. Rhapsody in Blue is my favorite piece of all time and it's the reason I play the piano. |
| Brian Wilson: | Mine too, mine too. Just keep at it. You've got your whole life ahead of you. Don't sweat the small stuff. And don't worry about taking time off and going to the beach when you need to. Don't let anyone tell you you're nuts or overly ambitious or bipolar or crazy or anything like that - you only are if you believe it! So just take it easy, and don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy. |
| Me: | Wasn't that an Eagles song? |
| Brian Wilson: | Yeah, I know a lot of people think they're not so hot but I don't mind them. |
| Me: | Haha. Thanks Brian Wilson. |

In My Dreams pt. 3
| Me: | Hi Kevin Barnes. |
| Kevin Barnes: | Hi Barton. |
| Me: | I really like David Bowie. |
| Kevin Barnes: | I really like David Bowie too. |
| Me: | His chameleonic style and prescient appreciation for previous pop progenitors really shows in his work, as it does in yours. |
| Kevin Barnes: | Thanks Barton. Nice alliteration. We should collaborate on an album of David Bowie covers. |
| Me: | Okay Kevin Barnes. Sounds good, Kevin Barnes. |
