(Radio.com) Robin Williams has had an impact on many lives, Brad Paisley being no exception. Yesterday morning (Aug. 14), Paisley called into Chicago's US 99.5 (a CBS Radio station) to discuss his memories of the comedian.

"It was really a weird 24 hours for me," he told the station. "Ironically, right before we found out that Robin died I had tweeted Josh Groban. He and I are on Rising Star and we're good buddies. We worked together with Robin the first time we worked together."

Paisley had previously worked with Williams on his television show The Crazy Ones and had only fond memories of the actor. "It's surreal. I don't understand. He couldn't have been a nicer guy. There's footage somewhere of me playing guitar and him making up a song in between takes," he said.

"He was so brilliant. I was playing a Johnny Cash groove and he was making up a dirty song that was really funny. I'll miss him. Everybody liked him but obviously he didn't think as much of himself. That's really sad that he couldn't see himself the way we saw him. It's tragic." more on this story
