00:00:01.160 --> 00:00:01.700 align:middle line:90%
Yeah, yeah.

00:00:01.700 --> 00:00:06.440 align:middle line:84%
I think one of the great
pleasures of any collaboration,

00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.105 align:middle line:84%
any artistic collaboration,
is that your collaborator will

00:00:10.105 --> 00:00:12.230 align:middle line:84%
always be bringing a slightly
different perspective

00:00:12.230 --> 00:00:14.063 align:middle line:84%
from the perspective
that you have, and will

00:00:14.063 --> 00:00:16.580 align:middle line:84%
be drawn to different
questions, and see things

00:00:16.580 --> 00:00:18.000 align:middle line:90%
in different ways.

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:21.830 align:middle line:84%
And I think that is even
more true, often I find,

00:00:21.830 --> 00:00:24.080 align:middle line:84%
when I'm working with these
autistic writers, the ways

00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:25.730 align:middle line:84%
that they see the
world are definitely

00:00:25.730 --> 00:00:28.520 align:middle line:84%
slightly different from the
way that I see the world.

00:00:28.520 --> 00:00:30.740 align:middle line:84%
And there's such
an amazing power

00:00:30.740 --> 00:00:34.220 align:middle line:84%
of noticing that I think comes
up in a lot of these songs,

00:00:34.220 --> 00:00:37.400 align:middle line:84%
just a real fine attunement
to the environment,

00:00:37.400 --> 00:00:40.400 align:middle line:84%
to the energies of all
of the different people,

00:00:40.400 --> 00:00:44.780 align:middle line:84%
and creatures and even
inanimate objects in a space.

00:00:44.780 --> 00:00:47.060 align:middle line:84%
This is a song called
Seven-Leaf Clover

00:00:47.060 --> 00:00:54.296 align:middle line:84%
by a writer named Dustin, that
is about the power of noticing.

[SEVEN-LEAF CLOVER, DUSTIN
 DUBY-KOFFMAN]

00:00:56.270 --> 00:01:03.560 align:middle line:84%
(SINGING) Look under that rock,
I get close to the ground.

00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:11.240 align:middle line:84%
You're in for a shock,
there's life to be found.

00:01:11.240 --> 00:01:18.050 align:middle line:84%
And surprises tend to pop
when we take the time to stop.

00:01:18.050 --> 00:01:21.890 align:middle line:84%
With the passion
for the hunt, we

00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:24.060 align:middle line:90%
can let ourselves be stunned.

00:01:24.060 --> 00:01:29.240 align:middle line:90%


00:01:29.240 --> 00:01:32.750 align:middle line:90%
Peek into that hole.

00:01:32.750 --> 00:01:36.230 align:middle line:90%
Get lost in that field.

00:01:36.230 --> 00:01:43.820 align:middle line:84%
Say hi to the mole,
that's wonder you feel.

00:01:43.820 --> 00:01:50.540 align:middle line:84%
And surprises tend to pop
when we take the time to stop.

00:01:50.540 --> 00:01:57.530 align:middle line:84%
Every path can bring us wows,
if every moment we seize now.

00:01:57.530 --> 00:02:00.950 align:middle line:84%
A seven-leaf clover,
a face in the bark.

00:02:00.950 --> 00:02:04.220 align:middle line:84%
A mushroom umbrella,
a leaf, Noah's Ark.

00:02:04.220 --> 00:02:07.610 align:middle line:84%
A sprout in the
dirt, a smooth acorn.

00:02:07.610 --> 00:02:13.350 align:middle line:84%
A small tuft of fur,
a pollen rainstorm.

00:02:13.350 --> 00:02:19.770 align:middle line:84%
And surprises tend to pop,
when we take the time to stop.

00:02:19.770 --> 00:02:26.280 align:middle line:84%
All the heroes of the woods
live in all our neighborhoods.

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:31.290 align:middle line:84%
And every path can bring
us wows, if every moment we

00:02:31.290 --> 00:02:32.790 align:middle line:90%
seize now.

00:02:32.790 --> 00:02:36.450 align:middle line:84%
With the passion
for the hunt, we

00:02:36.450 --> 00:02:38.570 align:middle line:90%
can let ourselves be stunned.

00:02:38.570 --> 00:02:41.220 align:middle line:90%


00:02:41.220 --> 00:02:43.550 align:middle line:90%
Woo hoo.

00:02:43.550 --> 00:02:47.400 align:middle line:90%
Mm, so good.

00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:51.710 align:middle line:84%
Oh, love that list
in that bridge.

00:02:51.710 --> 00:02:54.350 align:middle line:84%
A seven-leaf clover,
a face in the bark,

00:02:54.350 --> 00:02:57.960 align:middle line:84%
a mushroom umbrella,
a leaf, Noah's Ark,

00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:01.470 align:middle line:84%
a sprout in the dirt, a smooth
acorn, a small tuft of fur,

00:03:01.470 --> 00:03:03.380 align:middle line:90%
a pollen rainstorm.

00:03:03.380 --> 00:03:05.520 align:middle line:90%
So good.

00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:07.070 align:middle line:90%
Oh.
