Milly Cogen says she “wrote this in about three hours. I had this really sad loop that I sang into my phone while staring out my window at the beginning of quarantine. Last week I realized I didn't have anything to turn in right before a song sketch deadline, so I threw the phone loop into my computer and just sang random things into my microphone until I had enough content to submit. The whole thing was supposed to be kind of a joke since the audio is wack and the song plot is meaningless, but then my classmates really liked it and when I listened to it the next day I really liked it too. The full sketch is due this week.”
