Barry BaysGUEST
so many different kinds of songs and classical music and rock and jazz and funk and blues and Bulgarian women's choir and just so many things.
Barry BaysGUEST
And, you know, sometimes like you can be writing a song and you were thinking of something and you tell somebody like they say, how do you write that? Or why did you play that? You go, well, I was thinking about My Sharona.
Barry BaysGUEST
And they go, well, that sounds nothing like My Sharona.
Barry BaysGUEST
Well, that's what I was thinking about.
Barry BaysGUEST
No, but you were thinking about it.

It's got that badass sound to it that really fits with the artwork on the soundtrack cover that we're looking at on YouTube.
