So I wanted music that felt like it underscored that.

It felt too melodramatic.

I didnt want the song to mention death or dying anywhere, which actually is surprisingly hard to find.

Everybodys really having a great time here except her.

He responds by getting out of the pool and blasting this song.

Originally, Erwin was supposed to turn on these fountains in his pool that splashed her as payback.

It was just the smallest little shower-spray of water.

So it was like, Ah, s, all right, let me think what to do.

My thought was, he turns on a song.

I dont know what it is yet.

I just knew he turns on some piece of music that is somehow payback.

Thats what is terrifying: If that song didnt exist, I dont know what I would use.

I literally was Googling stuff like, ahole song, youre an ahole song.

Lyrics like go f yourself or whatever.

I was so thankful that they had written it.

That song has always given me this incredible ache when I listen to it.

I feel this incredible longing, which I associate with the teenage years.
