Every quote links to the moment in the episode."She's also one of a kind, she's a real balladeer but she uses electronica and she's sort of blurring genres, which I love so much. Check it out, there's a lot of great songs on here."Watch this moment
"I think of it as a kind of like an album about family life and intimacy and the way that we protect and carve out stolen moments with our nearest and dearest in our usual busy lives. Love it, Dave did all the drawings on the outside."Watch this moment
"it's the greatest rock album it's rolling stones exile on main street... I based my first album on this record I learned from the best and this is about as epic a rock opus as it gets."Watch this moment
"She's so much fun, so bright. Her music is so smart, and it's like the perfect album for listening to when you're about to go out and the perfect album to listen to when you come home defeated. Romance at its best."Watch this moment
