“Well, I guess the first song would be Tell Me a Story by Nedelle. She has a really pretty voice and the songs are very sing-songy to me. But this song stuck out to me because it’s about her dog dying, and I’m not really like an animal person, but the specifics in the song hit my heart just because it made me realize not only in scripts and in music, but the little things are what really hurt and when you have someone close to you die or leave or when you go through a break-up, it’s not, you know, I miss Ali because… It’s always the little things, oh, like her socks aren’t on the ground. She always used to leave her socks here. It made me realize specifics are what make relationships and bonds between people important. And it’s what makes songs good.”
