Go Beyond Here

Kari connects Franke to his mom as they talk about writing the hit "Hungry Eyes" for "Dirty Dancing," which he also wrote "(I've Had) The Time of My Life," garnering an Academy Award. She also connects Pamela to her mom, as they talk about how one song created a spin-off from "Happy Days," and caused 17-year olds to get married in "Joanie Loves Chachi." They also talk about "One World," the song they wrote for "Earth, Wind and Fire" in 1989, which was recently re-recorded by stars like Patti LaBelle, Christine Ebersole and Tico Torres, as Kari notes hearing it underscored the importance of the environment. They also discuss feeling a soul connection with a person, how adoptive parents are often the true soul connection, while sometimes family members who share the same DNA don't feel that soul connection, past lives and knowing when you're on the life path you're meant to be on, what they do when they feel blue to pick themselves up and whether they hear random original tunes in their heads as songwriters.
