Back in 2001 or so, I was in shitty club in Charlotte, NC to see a little band that was about to break huge called Train. Their opening act that night was a brand new act called Five For Fighting. I had never heard one chord from them but after their powerful 45 minute set, I had the shirt, the CD, and a new band that I loved. Like many fans of music, sometime after their 2006 release Two Lights I lost touch with them.

After hearing Ondrasik's 2022 song for the Ukrainian people, "Can One Man Save the World," my interest and love for his songwriting was rekindled. Getting the chance to talk to John Ondrasik was a real treat and he couldn't have been a sweeter, kinder person. We bonded over our love of good ol' classic rock, the art of songwriting, and our mutual admiration of the Laurel Canyon folk scene of the '60s and '70s.

Enjoy, y'all!
