"A reminder to never give up on your dreams because some moron could walk into a hardware store, hear your song, and ask you to come on their show! (That’s me - I’m the moron). See @thadcockrell on @FallonTonight tonight!!"

You’ve probably seen the viral story about Thad Cockrellalready. If not, you haven’t been paying attention the last 3 days. Apparently, Jimmy Fallon heard Cockrell’s “Swingin’” in a hardware store, loved it, Shazammed it, and it became his personal COVID-19 anthem. Meanwhile, Cockrell’salbum had “flatlined” and he was considering a career change. Fast forward to this week, Cockrell was on The Tonight Show and The Today Show, his song is #1 on iTunes ahead of AJR, Morgan Wallen, The Weekend and Olivia Rodrigo, and Cockrell is high on life. All because an influential person loved a song and Shazammed it. That’s a superpower I would like to have. The ability to change the life of a hard-working, deserving artist who everyone calls friend and who has worked his entire life out of his love of his art. That’s the Midas touch I want. Jimmy Fallon, never take for granted what you have, and thanks for helping out my friend Thad. For what it’s worth, Thad played at my wedding with Courtney Jaye, John P Strohm, Maria Taylor and The Hurlers back in 2012. It’s no Tonight Show but hey…Check out videos and the story on Thad and Jimmy’s Twitter.
