“I want to focus on each scene. I'm a real perfectionist, and I don't want to feel like I didn't consider every possible variation of a scene. I come from a theater background, so I'm used to a lot of repetition, and I'm used to really attacking something over and over and over again.” WantFeelsRealUsedFocusSceneTheaterBackgroundsRepetitionAttackingVariationPerfectionist Author:Michael Shannon
“A song has a life of its own. It's an autonomous thing, separate from your own experience, almost. And the mere repetition of it means it's subject to change; it means approaching it differently, expressing different emotional aspects of it. It doesn't feel like wallowing.” FeelsMeanDifferentSongSubjectsEmotionalAspectMereRepetitionAutonomousWallowing Author:St. Vincent
