TBS : I ’ m fine . I ’ m in good shape . So it ’ s that , plus when you age , your voice changes a bit . So I ’ m trying to morph with it , and trying not to dwell on anything negative . And whatever works for you , works for you . Right after
But we all go through what we ’ re suppose to go through , and everything is a big lesso And you either heed the lesson , or you sta freaking out . So I went through a lot of the apy – both singing and physical therapy and it used to be that I could sing on the spo But now it ’ s essential that I warm up . So sing at least a little bit , every day , and I ’ m ju trying to keep things level . And it ’ s a muscl it ’ s all muscular – your voice is controlled b I think , 40 to 60 tiny little muscles in you throat .
IE : At album ’ s end , you seem content , grat ful . TBS : Well , just because you ’ re successful , you ’ ve lived a charmed life , doesn ’ t mea that you don ’ t go through the same shit th the Kennedy Center awards ( in 2016 , where The Eagles were honored ), I was in New York and I met Placido Domingo , and he had just spoken at the Kennedy Center , although I didn ’ t meet him . But he was actually in the same building I was in the next day , and I got to meet him , and he was the greatest person to talk to about aging and voices . I mean , he was one of the tenors , but he had morphed into a baritone , and he ’ s doing baritone work now . And we got to talking about our vehicle changing , sort of changing lanes . And it doesn ’ t mean that you have to quit – you roll with it . You roll with it and just keep going .
