I hope it's this (with Amy and Ronson talking). I still can't believe she wrote and composed the melody in a few hours.
Quote:
When I started writing the first song about Blake, the other songs wrote themselves. I was on a roll, cause I had these feelings, and I had these words floating around in me. You write a song, you have to remember how you felt. You have to remember what the weather was like. You have to remember what his neck smelt like. You have to remember ALL of it.

yeah, this is the video I meant. at first I didn't realise what it meant by acapella/album medley but then I realised it meant both versions of the song. so yeah, I guess that's what it will be
Her cover of Moon River was in the film, why is it not on the album?? It sounded amazing
Exciting tho, I'ma snatch this
Mitch didn't like his portrayal in the film so he decided not to give them rights to the unreleased material. I'm upset because I wanted 'Detachment' to be released.
