You just finished the vow renewal again.

0:15
Every time I'm on this cruise, they let
0:17
me officiate.
0:19
That's so cool. That's so cool.
0:21
It is cool.
0:22
Why do you uh love coming back on this
0:23

0:25
times on here and I love it. because
0:26
it's just fun
0:28
seeing seeing everybody seeing all my uh
0:34
fellow artists I guess comedians
0:38
everybody just hanging out
0:40
a lot of people say that a lot of
0:41
artists have said that that's the best
0:43
part and then meeting all your fans that
0:44
you know you get to hang out with
0:46
that's number one the fans take number
0:51
one no doubt
0:52
yeah and it's non-stop music and you
0:54
love music
0:55
non-stop music just about when you get
0:57
up till till it's past your bedtime.
1:00
Way past your bedtime. Um 40 years, sir,
1:04
since your debut album,
1:06
Kylie, ain't that crazy,
1:08
isn't it? Does it feel like 40 years?
1:10
I don't know. I get asked that a lot. I
1:12
I don't know if it seems like it does
1:14
sometimes and and not sometimes. It's I
1:18
don't mean to waffle on you, but you
1:20
know, somebody asked me this morning
1:24
about how long I've been doing this.
1:27
You know, I've been singing for a living
1:29
since 1973. That's 53 years I've been
1:33
doing this. I started out at the
1:35
University of Georgia.
1:36
Wow. Does it feel like
1:39
it could possibly be that many years?
1:41
I would have never thought it would have
1:42
lasted this long. And you
1:45
I didn't go into it thinking of any
1:47
career or anything.
1:49
You somehow sound better than ever.
1:55
I mean, you were singing so good this
1:57
week.
1:57
Thank you.
2:00
I don't know. God's taking care of me.
2:02
That's the only answer I got for that.
2:04
Just I've been blessed. Well, and we
2:08
need to talk about something else
2:09
because I haven't talked to you since
2:10
this happened.
2:12
Grand up. Remember?
2:14
Wow. Ain't that
2:15
I might have shed a tear. I'm not even
2:16
lying. I might have shed a tear.
2:18
That's the greatest thing that's ever
2:20
happened to Sheila and me. God, what
2:22
fun. You know, I've been going out there
2:24
for 40 years.
2:26
Was it something?
2:27
I never dropped any hints or anything.
2:30
Yeah, of course there was something. I
2:31
hope
2:33
a lot. But, you know, I never bugged
2:37
them about it. I figured if it was going
2:39
to happen, they let me know. And they
2:41
did.
2:41
They did. And I love when you speak
2:43
about it. And when you were inducted,
2:45
you mentioned Sheila. Like, it's a
2:47
collaborative thing.
2:49
Man, I wouldn't even be alive if it
2:51
weren't for her, much less have any kind
2:53
of success. No, she's taking care of me.
2:57
She's been taking care of me for like
2:59
almost 50 years. Wow, that's a long
3:02
time.
3:02
I know it is for her.
3:05
Yeah, she's something else.
3:07
What's happening with you with new
3:08
music?
3:10
I just cut tracks for a new uh Gather uh
3:14
gospel album and Ben Isaac's is
3:18
producing. We cut over his studio and
3:22
it's going to be kind of a
3:24
R&B
3:26
gospel album.
3:28
Okay.
3:28
It's going to be great. Do we know when
3:30
it's coming out?
3:31
I don't know. It'll probably come out
3:33
this year sometime. We're going to do a
3:35
we're going to film a show doing the
3:38
whole album from top to bottom. So,
3:41
um, Gather,
3:44
you know, it's Bill Gaither's company
3:45
and they they're now the world's largest
3:48
gospel label and so they know how to do
3:51
everything. They know how to get the
3:54
video and and music out to the public
3:58
all different way. They're way smarter
3:59
than I am.
4:00
They're great. Okay. Album coming out.
