NPR: 48 Hours to Finish a Song
An image by photographer Phil Toledano and the term "1974" provided the inspiration for Stephin Merritt's "The Man of a Million Faces," composed in two days for the first installment of NPR's "Project Song."
Watch a video of the process and listen to the All Things Considered segment hosted by Bob Boilen at NPR Music: Stephin Merritt: Two Days, "A Million Faces."
