What's the strangest thing that has inspired YOU to write music?

[mayaclars]

I know that every musician writes songs in a very different way, some rely more on intuition, while others take a more
"mathematical" approach. It’s truly unique how everyone composes music... if you look at the details, it’s clear that we all have very distinct processes when it comes to songwriting. And as for inspiration, well, people seek that out in different ways, too: some wait for a muse, some just experiment within their DAW, and others might watch a film and suddenly get an idea. I thought, what’s the strangest thing that has ever inspired me to write a song? After giving it some thought, I realized it was the planet Coruscant from Star Wars lolol which inspired me to write the song "the city is under control".

Now, I’m curious,
What's the strangest thing that has inspired YOU to write music?
