Find Quote by Sophie Thatcher
“I'm all about melodies, and I find myself improvising most of the time with lyrics. Then I stick to a couple of lyrics and build a story around that. It's a weird way to go about songwriting. I'm not technically trained in any way, so it's very intuition-based, whereas I feel like acting I'm just a lot more trained.”
