I wanted the songs to sound like score.

I wanted it to go from score into songs without feeling like there was any difference.

So he and I just started recording.

Again, it's like...

I hear it in my head.

I could try to explain it to somebody else, or we could just do it, you know?

And so that's what we ended up doing.

And now we do that.

Yeah, it's fascinating that this visual medium is still rooted in the oral storytelling tradition, right?

Which is, I walk into a room, I tell you a story, right?

And if I'm charismatic and, you know, I've got good timing, you're going to go, oh my God, that's amazing.

I want to see that.

Right.

I did one pitch where I went in and, you know, I started to talk about the segue, right?

The segue, of course, is the segue from small talk to the pitch, right?

And we did the small talk and I was like, you know, I was thinking on the way over here about the segue.

of how I was gonna get into the pitch.

And I was thinking about how- Like, how are you to like- Yeah, I was thinking about how recently my house got broken into and they stole some guitars.

And then I was thinking, no, maybe I'll talk about how I was watching TV last night and Stripes was on.

And I thought, we don't have that kind of Bill Murray anti-hero anymore.
