    "comment": "\"Yes, it came to me in a dream. I’m not joking when I say that this is actually what happened. Because I kept thinking “they want me to write a song for it,” and I was on holiday, so the last thing I wanted to do is to have to go into a studio and try and write a song. But the images from the film were in my mind when I went to sleep.\" - Nick Cave in an interview with Variety. \n\nRead more about the creation of this theme song here: https://variety.com/2026/music/news/nick-cave-train-dreams-theme-song-interview-1236627648/",
