 As the studio footage shows after we take a break after lunch I start working on the top line melody. I start busking some lyrics and I'm planning ahead here so I start working out some love lyrics for the 'Little Britain' album (who the fuck would use Tom Baker for a voice over, it's got to be a joke, right?) I start throwing some lyrics into the mix about "understanding a woman" and stuff and "not wanting to hurt a woman" pretty much the lyrical direction I went in for 'Little Britain'. Chad, playing himself during this writing session footage starts to knock a few ideas around the studio, bouncing them off the producer, you can see this creative process unfolding around 2.25 into the song, where he's bouncing some ideas off me, he did this quite regularly. I try my spring delay on the track at about 2.28 as were bouncing ideas of each other here as you can see, Steve Austin's a bit perplexed as he thinks this is a mutual process, but he goes along with the sasquatch's ideas anyway.
 Now the footage suddenly cuts back to EMI world headquarters where the board are watching this writing session from the boardroom where they aren't happy with the lyrics so they intervene as they've been monitoring the album unfold. Everyone was always fucking siding with the sasquatch, the bastards. They never saw Steve Austin's point of view as the sasquatch totally had Steve Austin fooled, so Steve Austin goes along with it and ditches his creative principles, just for the one album and as you can see, I totally crash and burn, and from about 3.10 it all goes downhill and I'm pretty much spent as a creative force, don't bother listening to the rest of this song, it's just fucking repetitive, although Andie's hi hat work gets really good, Chad's on the orchestra and I'm on the spring delay. Chads guitar work suffers at about 4.35 into this song as he picks a much too heavy plectrum. I try to reason with him but I can't concentrate coz Andie just keeps going and fucking going on the hi hats then at about 5.50 he starts a drum solo, so in retaliation I think: "Right if you're doing your solo I'm gonna play the guitar solo from 'Kiss' by Steve Austin's hero and mentor, The Artist Formally Known as Prince." You can hear me retaliate to Andie's drum solo at 6.02 into the song with the solo from 'Kiss' and Chad samples the strings for the intro for 'Attack of the Grey Album' LP coz he's looking for his flute which he finds by 6.15 into the song.
-That's how we did 'Soundtrack 4 2 Lovers' and that's pretty much how we did most of our tracks really, no really, that's exactly how we worked together, ask anyone who knows the band, but there were some tracks that were hard to work on too. I think Stove was operating the video camera.

 I can't remember who Marlene was, I think she might have been shagging Robert Plant on the stairwell.
 Oh shit!! I'm really sorry about this. That was the wrong Youtube link. Here's the correct one. I remember now, I didn't have anything to do with that track, I forgot. Just re-read it watching the new footage.
