"Nonononono, I need you to listen closer. I know it sounds like just a song at first, but I swear if you pay attention to the lyrics and the different elements at play in the music- did you catch that? In the bass?- I'm starting the song over."

"I'm gonna try to shut up this time, but- wait. String section. Did you hear that? It's recorded so quietly, and with the brass you barely notice unless it's loud... I'm starting it over again."
