I love this! [image]

I'm trying to think of some, I don't know any word-for-word. I always like the one where they say that Jemaine usually writes the songs about love and Bret normally writes the darker songs. ;<br />D

Not Nik, but I remember where she posted it and I completed with what Jemaine said. Smile

It's from a radio interview:

Mostly if it's dirty, I've probably started it.

If it's more surreal, I probably did it. Or darker. If there's death involved, I probably did it. If there's love involved, Jemaine probably did it.

I really hope I'm not incorrectly attributing that to him.

B: Classic. Timeless.
J:Very handsome man.
B:Very nice beard.

I don't why but it really makes me laugh!

"

was awesome! [image]

Bottle Rocket / Rushmore / Royal Tenenbaums [image]

I wonder which scenes made him think that. Maybe something while they were writing "
Girlfriends"
? [image]
