Songs From The Last Century,

But when Brian committed them to the picture and he said that they would provide new songs, they said, "Well, we're not going to write any decent songs, we'll give them all the rejects we didn't really want."

Music. I do songs that have appeared on the pop charts, but they're music for grownups.

Everything sounds dated right now to me, like the songs you hear on the radio and the type of pop punk bands that's going on right now. I feel like five years from now, that's going to seem like, 'Oh I remember exactly when that took place.' I wanted to create something that would seem a little more timeless.

Whether they're jukebox musicals – I hate the term – or new and hip, you gotta pick songs that support the story. If you don't feel for the characters, if you're not worrying about what is going to happen, you're going to fail.

Back at that time, we played the songs pretty much the way we heard them on the records. We streamlined them somewhat. We even had band uniforms that we wore and that was one of the first things I had to do. I went out to the department store and purchased black slacks and a black vest and a green corduroy blazer. That was sort of our official uniform at the time and we used that for a while.
