“It has been a beautiful whirlwind and I’m just so grateful that I get to live my dreams every day with the love of my life,” the Australian Firerose said onGMA.
“Diane actually DM’d me and said, ‘Would you like to do a song?’ And I’m like, ‘Ah! Yeah! I would love nothing more,’” she recalled. “I mean, she was a tremendous inspiration to me to follow my songwriting and so it was a dream come true. When she sent ‘Plans’ it was meant to be.”

Again, we’re musicians, first and foremost, both of us. And we found this harmony, and this rhythm, this melody to life.”
