In Their Words: “As I approached a milestone birthday, it occurred to me that I’ve been living much of my life with the expectation that I’ll eventually ‘get my life together… at some point.’ This song is a somewhat sarcastic celebration of my naïve optimism that happiness is just around the corner, and that I can earn, or work, my way to it. We shot the music video on that milestone birthday, my 40th. My wife put together a surprise concert for me. It was an exciting way for me to see a bunch of musician friends who came into town to perform with me. We had already intended to shoot the video for ‘One Fine Day’ that day, so we just decided to make it the concert/party. You see us soundchecking and performing and hanging out with friends on my last night as a 39-year-old. It really was a special day, and I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to document it in video and share a piece of it with this music.” — Mike Block
