Development
"The film spans many decades, and we had song ideas that we wanted to use for the different periods. When we started breaking it down into time periods, it all grew from there. We also started thinking about what would work as counterpoint, or what would not be the obvious choice. That’s where we started, and when it came time to figure out the score, Marty said, 'Rule number one is that it can’t sound like movie music.' [...] That eliminated a lot of possibilities, so I had to go to a musical headspace that I had never been before. It works beautifully in the movie."
