      it's wild, on IG/TikTok a lot of the comments are critical of Zane for talking too much, when the entire reason so many artists love talking to him and are willing to be so much more open and vulnerable than usual is because they appreciate the casual, conversational dynamic of his interviews vs the series of dumb questions they get from most other hosts

    I fell in love to those lyrics a decade ago. They told me to put my arm around her waist when they played it live. Then it was 4 and a half years later. The happiness was often, the firsts were many, the ending was sad. I’m still glad it happened.

That said, I like him haha. But I wish this interview was more focused on the songs rather than their relationships or their experience of being boygenius.
