- 0:34Speaker 1: are you doing today? I couldn't be better, holl are
- 0:37Speaker 1: you absolutely fantastic? Can we give credit to Damon like
- 0:41Speaker 1: in a really huge way, because, oh my god, every
- 0:43Speaker 1: time I hear new music from you, my heart says,
- 0:46Speaker 1: please give Damon credit, give him some love because Damon
- 0:50Speaker 1: has a vision as well, and it's like, oh my god,
- 0:53Speaker 1: what a collaboration.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Absolutely, I always live on credit, you know. Oh my god,
- 1:02Speaker 2: He's been so wonderful and honing his craft and giving
- 1:08Speaker 2: me some of his facade work. So absolutely we can
- 1:12Speaker 2: talk about him anytime you want to talk about.
- 1:14Speaker 1: It, Oh my god. And to hear both of your
- 1:16Speaker 1: visions with this song Oceans in the Desert, I mean,
- 1:19Speaker 1: you take me to a place where music is supposed
- 1:22Speaker 1: to it's supposed to be an escape or someplace where
- 1:25Speaker 1: you can really kind of just get into your own
- 1:27Speaker 1: personal thoughts of peace.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Absolutely, it's your official Diane Warren wrote some
- 1:34Speaker 2: wonderful songs for us to sing, and that happens to
- 1:38Speaker 2: be one of the Ocean regards. And to have Cynthia
- 1:44Speaker 2: Rivio as my direct partner on that particular song came
- 1:49Speaker 2: actually because of Damon's vision. Then he felt that that
- 1:53Speaker 2: was the song that I needed to be singing with there,
- 1:57Speaker 2: and as it turns out, he was absolutely right.
- 2:00Speaker 1: So that do you ever sit down with him and
- 2:02Speaker 1: ask him where his imagination is, because because I'm sure
- 2:05Speaker 1: that Burt Bacharac did the same thing with you inside
- 2:07Speaker 1: that studio, When you're creating music and you have that vision,
- 2:10Speaker 1: it's it's like there's just something very magical and family there.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Yeah, that is, you know, I don't question where it
- 2:20Speaker 2: comes from. Okay, Yeah, I haven't feeling that when one
- 2:26Speaker 2: is that imagine a kid, that it just transfers itself.
- 2:33Speaker 2: I don't think feel anybody actually plans so this is
- 2:37Speaker 2: how it's going to be done. You know, it just
- 2:40Speaker 2: kind of throws into each other. And I believe that's
- 2:44Speaker 2: how name and does it, and that's how I feel
- 2:46Speaker 2: I do it.
- 2:48Speaker 1: This is all part of a brand new album, and
- 2:49Speaker 1: I want listeners to understand how you spelled duets, because
- 2:53Speaker 1: you know they're going to go onto Amazon, They're going
- 2:55Speaker 1: to go someplace and they're gonna spell it completely wrong.
- 2:57Speaker 1: It's d W. That's very creative.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, d W happens to be the way that
- 3:08Speaker 2: Dim Warren and I address each other. We did on
- 3:13Speaker 2: each other for mahy many years and have become friends
- 3:16Speaker 2: over those years. And every time we sived it because
- 3:19Speaker 2: our initials exactly the same, we would address each other's
- 3:22Speaker 2: d W hey, DW hey DW. And my son Dami says, no,
- 3:28Speaker 2: what do we call it d W whitts? I said,
- 3:31Speaker 2: why not? And that's what we have.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Please do not move. There's more with Dion Warwick right
- 3:37Speaker 1: around the corner. The name of her new song Oceans
- 3:41Speaker 1: in the Desert. It comes from her album Duets. We
- 3:44Speaker 1: are back with singer, songwriter and music legend Dion Warwick.
- 3:48Speaker 1: You live by a mantra or a mantra has come
- 3:51Speaker 1: from this that really I would love to have it
- 3:53Speaker 1: on some sort of poster or maybe if I ever
- 3:55Speaker 1: get the chance to see you live, it can be
- 3:57Speaker 1: part of the merch wisdom preserves the life of its owner.
- 4:01Speaker 1: I love that.
- 4:06Speaker 2: It's true. It is so true.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Is it something that you can grow off from? Because
- 4:12Speaker 1: you know how creativity is, it comes at you when
- 4:15Speaker 1: you least expect it, and you've got to be able
- 4:17Speaker 1: to have enough wisdom inside your creative process to make
- 4:20Speaker 1: sure that that music stays true.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Absolutely, I totally agree with you. You know, when you
- 4:28Speaker 2: know what you're doing, what you're supposed to be doing,
- 4:32Speaker 2: and you're doing it the right way, there's nothing that
- 4:37Speaker 2: can stop it or stuff you. I feel very very
- 4:41Speaker 2: comfortable in the linement. I feel that I've been true
- 4:47Speaker 2: to who I am and to those who have been
- 4:51Speaker 2: a part of my life recording wise, So I have
- 4:56Speaker 2: you know every you're saying, why are they trying to
- 5:02Speaker 2: make you continue to prove yourself. I've already done that.
- 5:06Speaker 2: That's been done many years ago, and I think that
- 5:11Speaker 2: that everybody now understands that I am who I am
- 5:16Speaker 2: and you've accepted me.
- 5:18Speaker 1: What yeah now is that because of the of this quote,
- 5:22Speaker 1: it says you are not a mirage, that you really are.
- 5:26Speaker 1: You know that what we can see and feel and
- 5:28Speaker 1: that is truth. And and it's like when when I
- 5:31Speaker 1: when I read that, I went, that's exactly who Dion
- 5:33Speaker 1: Wildwick is. Oh my god, she is not a miraage.
- 5:36Speaker 1: She's been authentic in our lives. I don't want to
- 5:39Speaker 1: count the years because you know, no, we're all still
- 5:41Speaker 1: young kids, man, We're we're still creating.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yeah, well yeah, I think I am. You know,
- 5:48Speaker 2: I'm everything that everybody wants me to be, you know,
- 5:52Speaker 2: and I don't know what you might want me to be,
- 5:56Speaker 2: but what my cousin might want me to be, or
- 5:59Speaker 2: what uh the conducts on the railroad might want me
- 6:04Speaker 2: to be. Anybody who listens to Dian well, it has
- 6:07Speaker 2: their own opinion as to who and what she is.
- 6:11Speaker 2: And that's okay because it comes from their imagination, which
- 6:15Speaker 2: is what it's supposed to do.
- 6:18Speaker 1: So then how do you transfer that to the biopic
- 6:21Speaker 1: with with Tiana Taylor? Because I mean, you're right, we
- 6:24Speaker 1: all have our interpretation of who you are. Do you
- 6:27Speaker 1: go to the site, whether where they're doing the filming,
- 6:29Speaker 1: or do you say, ah, you guys, do your thing.
- 6:31Speaker 1: I'll be over here.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think so. I think you can't. You
- 6:35Speaker 2: can't steal anyone's creativity, that's sure. I feel that Tiana
- 6:43Speaker 2: is my alter ego. I she is so much me.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Is frightening, it's scary. You know where people have said
- 6:54Speaker 2: have said to me, I made several occasions. You know
- 6:57Speaker 2: you had enough filters? So what is a filter? Why
- 7:00Speaker 2: would I want to filter? And that is totally Tiana.
- 7:05Speaker 2: She has no filter either. She she says and does
- 7:10Speaker 2: what she feels is true as I do. And I'm
- 7:15Speaker 2: so drilled that she cares enough to do the research
- 7:20Speaker 2: she's done. I mean, I think she knows more about
- 7:22Speaker 2: me than I know about myself, and I really do,
- 7:26Speaker 2: so she takes the time to do that, which is
- 7:30Speaker 2: I'm drilled to have her around me.
- 7:34Speaker 1: The painting that's featured in the video and the album cover,
- 7:37Speaker 1: it looks so Salvador Dolly Marcus Glynn, my god, this
- 7:42Speaker 1: is the first time that I've even even seen anything
- 7:44Speaker 1: from Marcus. I am impressed with your choice.
- 7:48Speaker 2: It is amazing, absolutely amazing. Okay, Well, well, I'm certain
- 7:54Speaker 2: that once we decide, well, we're gonna auction this off
- 7:58Speaker 2: for a Charity's stillna come in with a lot of
- 8:02Speaker 2: money for the charity because he's brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Wow, where can people go to find out more about you?
- 8:11Speaker 1: I I'm sorry, in my heart, I can't say that
- 8:13Speaker 1: this is your final because in my heart I know
- 8:15Speaker 1: that God works through you and somewhere along the way
- 8:18Speaker 1: that music is still going to pop up somewhere you
- 8:23Speaker 1: don't know.
- 8:28Speaker 2: Well, I'll be on social media, you'll be fearing me
- 8:32Speaker 2: every now and then, but basically, I'm just going to
- 8:37Speaker 2: take some time for me. Finally, I think it's time
- 8:41Speaker 2: for me to say, you know, you a person too,
- 8:47Speaker 2: and I think everybody will kind of understand that.
- 8:50Speaker 1: I think, Wow, well, please come back to this show
- 8:54Speaker 1: anytime in the future, even if you're going to be
- 8:56Speaker 1: writing movies or writing books from this day. For creativity
- 8:59Speaker 1: doesn't turn off Deyan, No.
- 9:01Speaker 2: It doesn't. It does not turn off. You're absolutely right.
- 9:05Speaker 1: Will you be brilliant today? Okay?
- 9:08Speaker 2: I'm gonna try and try every day. You do that, Okay,
