The Dave Matthews Bands Crash into Me played over the montage, not that the lyrics had anything to do with the images the song was played over but it was haunting, it was moody, it was summing things up, it gave the footage an emotional resonance that I guess we were incapable of capturing ourselves. At first my feelings were basically so what? But then I suggested other music: Hurt by Nine Inch Nails, but I was told that the rights were sky-high and that the song was too ominous for this sequence; Nada Surfs Popular had too many minor chords, it didnt fit the mood of the piece, it was again too ominous. When I told them I seriously did not think things could get any more fucking ominous than they already were, I was told, Things get very much more ominous, Victor, and then I was left alone.
