“Tone is an interesting question because part of the inspiration of looking to song is that Geisel himself - when you think about his animated version of The Grinch - embraced the idea of using songs in unconventional ways, as part of conveying a narrative. The use of music, in this film, is very unconventional, which I love.” ThinkingWayIdeasUseInspirationFilmSongInterestingVersionsNarrativeToneAnimatedUnconventionalConveying Author:Christopher Meledandri

“The interesting thing is that, well, here's what I think about songwriters and songs. Sometimes people sit down and say, "I gotta write a song today, I have a title" and all of that, and sometimes inspiration just happens, almost like "Sugar, Sugar" and a couple of the other songs. But basically, I just started playing the piano, and I'm not a great piano player.” PeopleThinkingWritingWellsSometimesInspirationHappensTodaySongInterestingPlayerCoupleDown AndTitlesPianoSugarSongwritersInteresting Things Author:Andy Kim
“I think what's interesting about Alice Munro, too, is the extreme mundanity of things. And how even a life reduced to complete mundanity, like capitalism taking over rural Ontario or whatever, has complete sway over aspects of life. Nevertheless, people still have these moments of weird desperation, weird longing, weird true love, or weird, powerful lust, and that was a major inspiration for me, too.” PeopleThinkingMomentsInspirationInterestingPowerfulCapitalismLongingLustDesperation Author:How to Dress Well
“We were being put somewhere interesting from being involved with analog, to working with digital. Those two worlds just collided and it felt great! That was probably the key inspiration in terms of me going on to not just making dub plates for my sound, but doing the unobvious and "selling out" to the masses. I subsequently got a record deal because of that.” WorldInspirationTermInterestingSellingSelling Out Author:Jazzie B
