Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Van Fleet!

What a theme song. What a theme song. And me. And me. Thank you. It's been stuck in my head

ever since I heard it. Yeah, it's super catchy. That was what I was going for. That was what

was hoping for. I didn't think I realized how catchy it was going to be and how much it's kind of

clicked on and sat with people. But I'm not complaining. How much input did you have another song? You know, so I ended up having a fair amount of input. I was pushing for new music when I kind of found out what the situation was going to be and maybe I was going to go solo. I started messaging a lot saying I would love new music, can I get new music? Then eventually I got into contact with Neil, I believe. And then he called me. We had a little discussion on the phone. He said, what kind of thing are you looking for? So I said, can I send you an email? Got off the phone and I started writing this email just with all my references, with all the songs I like, with all the ideas I had, lyrics, kind of the theme of it, the vibe of it. So I had so much I had. There's a Charlie X-EX and Billy Elish song called Guess, and that opens with a phone call. Actually, there's no phone call, but it opens and it goes, hey, Billy, are you there? That I loved. I really wanted

that. So that was my first thing. I wanted a phone call. I wanted to ring. I wanted to pick up. I wanted a hey kit, are you there? I originally wanted an English voice, and I still would like to have it with an English voice. We're American for now, but, you know, I think we'll, we'll be okay with that. So that was a big one. We got that. And then there was just so many other

influences. There's another Charlie X, X, X, X, now, but, you know, I think we'll be okay with that. So that was a big one. We got that. And then there was just so many other influences. There's another Charlie XX song called Speed Drive, which I really liked. Jenny from Black Pink has a song called Like Jenny. That is very poppy, very, there's a lot of like girly pop music at the moment that's come out. It's just very catchy, it's very iconic.

It's very chorus, chorus, chorus, chorus.

Chapel Roan, feminine arm anon.

Very good song.

That was a big one I pushed for.

There's also some Harry Stiles influence.

1975 was a big band that I liked and pretty deadly actually used their song on the Indies for a theme. Which one? I love that band. Love me. Yeah. And there's kind of a guitar riff in that we used to really like. And I feel like I can kind of hear that in this song. And then what else do we have? What else do we have? Oh, Jade, who's a UK artist. I don't know if you know her.

She's part out a fantastic album this year.

She used to be in the band Little Mix. So there's just so many references there. I sent them more. I timestamps the bits that I like, the choruses, the hear, the hair. Oh, you were right into this. Yeah, yeah. I'm always trying to give as much as I can. So as much of me is there.

And then they came back, gave me the first draft.

It sounded great.

A few tweaks, few tweaks, few tweaks.

And we kind of, I gave me the first draft.

It sounded great. A few tweaks, few tweaks, a few tweaks. And we kind of, uh, I felt like we hit it, you know? This is different from the story you hear from a lot of people where it's like, here's your song. They hit play and it's like, okay. Yeah. Like, this was really collaborative for you. Yeah, and again, I just wanted to put my best foot forward.

I knew I wanted a female singer.

I've always been big on that.
