Like we were just you know, 369 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 3: in Bucharest and it was COVID. It was just it 370 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 3: was just such a it was so far away from 371 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 3: everything we and we couldn't see the other scenes. So 372 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: because of COVID, the protocols, you know, we'd travel in 373 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 3: our own little car to the set and it was 374 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 3: like an hour away and you're in you're you're just 375 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 3: so quarantined, and then you're back to your hotel that 376 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 3: I could I never saw the big picture.

I don't know 493 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: how to do it. 494 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 3: Really, You've never you've never done that, it's so. 495 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: Fun've never done a co writing session. I think I 496 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,239 Speaker 1: did one once and I just didn't know what to 497 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: do right, because for me, it's just sort of getting 498 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: an idea and hearing something in my head and then 499 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: getting it down and then lyrics come. 500 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 3: And oh, so your melody first, lyrics not vocal. I 501 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 3: think it's I think it's easier when your lyrics first, 502 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 3: because then people can sort of picture the melody together. 503 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: Now the words come from the sounds. The words come 504 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: from that's the last thing that comes. 505 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 3: I think most people are like you. Our stuff is 506 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 3: all like punchlines, and so the words have to come first. 507 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they gotta comfort but no, no, But sometimes it's 508 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 1: it's an idea, it's a couple of words put together. 509 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: It's like, what makes that melody sound right?
