'I’m the luckiest dude there is,' the singer told MTV News in June of his experience scoring the films, 'They never needed to afford me the opportunity. Not once, but twice.What’s better than that? And you know I just feel like the universe is in a place where our species are just supposed to be happy and smiling again.'
