Re: Benny & Ash
Oh yeah, definitely the dark cloud, post-breakup sort. Ash had seen the whole range come through the bar, naturally, and she did have a rather eclectic knowledge base when it came to music, so she was confident she'd be able to help if he wanted it. "Oh, no, no, definitely not All By Myself, but it gives us a starting point!" she said.
His poor mood wasn't likely to rub any of the shine off her own joy. She was decidedly not in a sad, post-breakup phase, and she found she wanted to help him find some hope. "Well, depending on the circumstances and just what you want to put out there, there's 'How Can You Mend a Broken Heart' by Al Green," she suggested, though that might be too long and mellow and might not hit the right tone, but it was the first song to flash in her mind. "Or, ooh, I don't know if you've heard it yet but Elliott Smith just dropped a new song, 'Somebody That I Used To Know,' and I think we got the track for it last week!" But again, she wasn't sure if it would hit the right tone. No, she rather thought he needed something more hopeful that either of those songs.
