I sang ' I got bills ' and he just popped up off his chair. It was like a chain reaction. Ricky does n't really get excited about much. I do n't either because we write so much, so it 's hard to gauge but there was a good feeling. We were writing about things people can relate to, which is fun. It 's all truthful.
