(3:57) - Folk - FCC Friendly - Give It To Me Real is the beginning of a deeper connection. No more stonewalling! Give it to me real! Tell me what you feel! We all need to communicate with each other, and believe that our truths can be heard and understood. I am here. I am listening. I can handle your truth!

Recorded live, this was the second take. Nick overdubbed Fender Rhodes.
