Did the SNL sample take the edge off of it
I'm glad. Have you seen that skit
No but I knew it was SNL
It's so good. Oh my god, yeah, James Franco

The idea for the song was to capture what you wanted to say
Like no filter, after your third date or something like that
Exactly, the idea is to sort of lead you in, because the rhythm
The chord progression is such that it imitates a pop, like romance song
And then it starts off kind of, yeah, wholesome,
And then guard kind of gets lowered more and more
I think you should release that

Yeah? Very honest? I'm worried people are going to like
No, I think it's very clearly a joke
Sweet, yeah, yeah. The doggy dish line is the only one
That's made me nervous, because it's a little bit out of the blue
Out of left field for me
Mine was the first take. I had never sung a melody for it yet

Yeah
So
Thank you
I'm a big fan of her
She's an awesome comedian

This is all in one take
All of those were in one take, but
I Just Wanna has been iterated on a whole bunch of times
It's almost done

We have to record the harmony
And then change the name
Let me pull up the lyrics. They're nuts

Is this also you
No, this is my friend Holly

That one was hard to record

Is this Elise
Yeah
Oh, you hear that peaking
Yeah, amazing. Production value, 100
Exactly

Oh my god
She doesn't have a terrible voice
She's got a great voice

Oh my god
She sang like in real life
What's that supposed to mean
This was simulated

No, yeah, she's not in choir or anything
She just like taught herself the
Uke and guitar and like singing stuff
She's great though
That's impressive

High key the best song on the album
Very consistently everyone's favorite
I like mine
Her voice is really nice

Yeah, this is my friend Ray
My best friend Ray, who I gave the shaker that he lost

And we were hanging out and I was exhausted or whatever
It was like mid-afternoon, as I am
And I was like, can you put me to sleep
Can you talk about art history

He's a huge art history nerd
This shit's so boring
I mean, it's interesting
Like you can kind of listen to it
It's like kind of soothing

He was just talking about like his thesis project
There's another thing I think you might enjoy
Yeah
It's like a meditation interlude in like a live concert at Madison Square Garden

Okay, interesting
It's crazy
Yeah
Okay, yeah, an interlude, yes

Yeah, and then the music is improvised
So I just started playing it
I was like, Amrut, you've got one shot
And he grabbed his MIDI keyboard, garage band
Pulled up like whatever this is, a xylophone

And then, yeah, hit A G and D and F or whatever for three and a half minutes
Yeah, I could have sworn there was one more instrument
I think I had my little brother play over it too
But I can't hear it

Yeah, I might be confusing it with a different one
He's really passionate about art history
Yeah
That's impressive

Yeah
Pretty into it
This is my favorite track on the album
Really

Yeah
I mean
I might just love Ray's voice
Yeah

I mean, it's nice
Yeah
And then
I have no idea what he's saying

Yeah
I don't understand
Exactly, exactly
You get like words here and there

In the middle, he like mispronounced Oedipal
And I was like, Oedipal
And he was like, Oedipal
Or whatever, right

And that's just like part of the track
Yeah
Yeah

This is also one that was like properly produced
My friend Ian on the guitar

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Perfect

Also improvised guitar
I dig it
He's good
Yeah

Aw, this is painfully real

Yep
That one hits
That one hits
Yeah

Let's go
One for eight
One for six so far
Two for six

Two for six
Which one did you like
Jealousy
Okay, yeah
Elise is great

Yeah, this is pretty much the whole track
I just, AP Lit, they gave us like a huge list
Of like tone words to analyze literature with
And I wanted to just record all of them in
Alphabetical order and then like f*ck around with it
Like, like spoke step it or like try to make like an EDM beat

Yeah
Avicii style
Yeah, like a party song with the hook being
Don't tell me to watch my tone
Watch your tone
Or something like that
Just like throw something in there

Yeah
This is also one take
I just kind of read through the list
I f*ck up the words so many times

Like at points I, whatever, it was like
Sardonic or something like that
And I mispronounced it
I was like sardonic or whatever
Ah, f*ck

I mean sardonic
I just like kept going
All fully still in here
Yeah

One of the initial concepts was to pull as many viral videos
As we could get and then like remix those
Because you know how I'm Ready by AJR uses the Spongebob sample
I'm ready
I'm ready for his first thing

And I was like, why not take advantage of that
And just like unlimited like viral video audio
So that people would, yeah, just like it would be a go-to song
That had all these like fun beats and mixing all these things
Here's that vine on glove compartments
Have you seen this one

I don't know if I know that one
Oh, shit
F*ck
I got to fix the speed

Come on
I've never seen that one
I've seen so many vines
I've never seen that one

It's such a good one
I mean, Bo's brilliant
So yeah
Oh my God, he is

Tried to pull that
And then it turned out that it was too like aggressive
But we tried to make a beat out of it
And it was just like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Completely unusable
Oh my God
Yeah
We spent like 10, 15 minutes on it

Yeah
But this is just
And then he took my track or whatever
We didn't do any editing

And since it was all done in five hours
Initially, I just uploaded it
And it was just me saying all the words
And then he just added this train track

I have no idea where he got the audio
Whatever
He goes to NYU
So he probably hung out on the subway
With a nice mic and recorded it
I don't know what he was going for
But I respect his artistic integrity
Added this odd instrumental

It was wonderful
I guess zealous is the last one
There's not that many Z-Tone words
Zany

Zany
Yeah, I guess zealous and zany are the only ones that come to mind
Yeah
Yeah

I got so many therapy worksheets

Like dozens and dozens and dozens of therapy worksheets
Over the last two years
And I kept them all
Partially because I love notes and whatever
Like knowledge is power

And partially because I was like
This is gonna make great stand up material
At some point

They're kinda silly aren't they
Many of them are very silly
Some of them are useful
They're all nice to have
And different stuff works for different people

So I'm glad my therapist gave them to me
It's also just nice to keep track
This is the progress, this is the work
That you've done

It's like math homework
It's like this stack of 80 sheets of paper
This is my therapy homework

For years, like I've been working on it
Here's the proof

Yeah
Any questions?

Odi et amo means
I hate and I love

It's ancient poetry
JCL
JCL exactly

I had an awesome Latin teacher
One of his biggest lessons was
Odi et amo
It's a poem by Catullus

The way he described it
I hate and I love
Part of human nature
Pain, heartbreak, grief and loss
Are directly proportional to the joy
That someone brought you
That they've brought you

Which is a nice way I think
To look at that

A lot of wisdom passed down 2000 years
A lot of knowledge to communicate
