“One of my favorite recordings of all time is I only have eyes for you, which of course everybody knows, but if you listen to it, it just sounds like it was recorded underwater in a methadone clinic. It's so slow and atmospheric and like it's just so narcotic, like it's the most narcotic sounding recording.”Watch this moment
