The 33-year-old recently shared the motivation behind his decision to record a studio version of Chapman’s hit, unveiling that the song carries a deep personal meaning for him. “[It’s] my first favorite song probably ever. I remember listening to that song with my dad in his truck when I was probably four years old,” Combs said via a press release. “He had a cassette, a tape of it, and we had this old brown camper top F-150.
“We rode around that thing, and he had a tape cassette player in there, and I have the original cassette — my dad brought it to me a couple of years ago… I have the one, and I have it in my shop. The only music I have in my shop is a cassette player. I love to go to antique stores, and just you can get a bunch of cassette tapes for 50 cents, and some of the best records of all time are on cassette.”
