“Season 3 is a fresh start, so we’ll be looking for and looking at a brand new round of songs and covers. I’m always like, ‘We can’t fit everybody in, but I’m always open to anyone who’s interested.’ It could be the most beautiful cover in the world, and I’ll think, ‘I really want to use this,’ but if we just can’t find the right spot, we can’t find the right spot.”
