Q

Yeah. So you’re going to get her with someone else’s art? Are you kidding me?

A

I mean, I guess. But we’re just starting out. We need to learn how to play.

Read it.

A

Well… “She’s standing on the corner. Like and angel in disguise. And I want to try and warn her, but she’s got dangerous eyes.”

Q

Come on, Conor! What’s this song about?

A

Well, it’s like, when you don’t know someone, they’re more interesting. They can be anything you want them to be. It’s like you know them better, when you don’t know them. You know?

Sure. What are you calling it?

I don’t know. “The Riddle of the Model”.

Is it, I mean, what do you think?

You told her we’d be recording today?

Q

Jesus Christ. What the hell are you all wearing?

A

Yeah, we’re just working that out. Maybe you can help.

19
Q

Who’s the cameraman? Maybe he can make some of this work.

A

Uh… We don’t really have…

20
Q

TRISTAN
There was no way to NOT follow her here!

A

So, what did you think of the song?

21
Q

I liked it. It’s the only reason I’m here. Did you write it?

A

Pretty much. Ailis wrote most of the music. I mean, I had other inspirations too.

22
Q

Who are they about?

A

Just a girl. I see her around sometimes.

23
Q

A girl you like?

A

I think so.

24
Q

You know you’ve got really good cheek bones?

A

What?

25
Q

Can I do your makeup?

A

Really?

26
Q

Why don’t we plan out our shots?

A

Okay, so we’re playing here, Raphina could be standing over there, against the wall. And I can go up to her and start singing. And when I sing “she’s got dangerous eyes”, let’s pan up to her eyes, like the camera’s drawn to them.

27
Q

I think a zoom would be better.

A

Okay. A zoom, whatever. So then, for the chorus, you walk off, and I follow. Circling around, you know? Do you think you can keep the camera steady, Darra?

28
Q

DARRA
What do you think?

A

Okay, so then I follow her as she walks down the alley. Trying to sing to her. But she just passes. And then we’ll go around and get that angle in front of us.

29
Q

Okay, okay, so let’s start over there.

A

Great. How does it look, Darra?

30
Q

TRISTAN
It was windy.

A

And it’s not too shaky when you’re following us?

31
Q

No, looks great.

A

Okay, take five then!

32
Q

So where do you live?

A

Not far from the school. Near the hospital actually.

33
Q

Oh, the Douglas? You grew up around here then?

A

Yeah. Though we might be moving. My parents are broke now. That’s why I had to switch schools.

34
Q

Yeah I wondered about that. You don’t seem like the guys who go to Synge Street.

A

Good new for me then. You always say how you’re better than Synge Street.

35
Q

Just a sec.

A

And my parents are probably breaking up.

36
Q

Oh, that’s tough. You doing okay with it?

A

Oh yeah. It’s just intense being around them. I’m like, “Guys, split up, you’re killing each other.”

37
Q

I’m glad I don’t have parents.

A

Right…

Well, maybe I’m just being dramatic. They probably won’t, right? It’s too much trouble right now. I mean, it’s just because the restaurant isn’t doing well.

38
Q

Oh, it’s my boyfriend.

A

Your boyfriend?

39
Q

Frustrated, you know.

A

Oh.

40
Q

Anyhow, I’ll just go that way.

A

Oh, before you go. Ailis and I recorded a different song last night. It’s mostly vocals, maybe you’d like it?

41
Q

I’ve got the most exciting lesson on Cicero’s letters to Atticus.

A

It’s Spanish, Brother!

42
Q

I like it. What is that?

A

My band.

43
Q

You’re in a band? Cool. What are they called?

A

I don’t know yet. Maybe “Sing Street” with and I. I was thinking “La Vida”. It’s Spanish for “The Life”.
