Sondheim in 90 seconds
“When I first started to write lyrics, it was Oscar himself who said, ‘You’re writing like me. You’re imitating me. You’re talking about nature and things like that. You don’t believe in those things.’
He said, ‘Write what you believe…write what you believe and you’ll be 99% ahead of the game. You’ll be 99% ahead of everybody else.’”
OH STEVE.
