There are a lot of songs titled Try a Little Tenderness and for legal reasons that’s where I got the title. Yeah, that’s where. In reality, it’s a line from a Def Leppard song titled “Breathe A Sigh.” Leave it to me to be a fan of one of the biggest selling bands in history and be devoted to their lowest selling album, Slang. It’s a brilliant album. I credit it for frequently ending writer’s blocks for me. I played it on repeat for most of the writing of Heaven Beside You and ever since it’s worked it’s magic.
