“Jesus waited THREE days to come back to life. It was perfect! If he had only waited ONE day, a lot of people wouldn’t have even heard he died. They’d be all, “Hey Jesus, what up?” and Jesus would probably be like, “What up? I DIED yesterday!” and they’d be all, “Uhh, you look pretty alive to me, dude…” and then Jesus would have to explain how he was resurrected, and how it was a miracle, and the dude’d be like “Uhh okay, whatever you say, bro…” And he’s not gonna come back on a SATURDAY. Everybody’s busy, doing chores, workin’ the loom, trimmin’ the beard, NO. He waited the perfect number of days, THREE. Plus it’s SUNDAY, so everyone’s in church already, and they’re all in there like “Oh no, Jesus is DEAD,” and then BAM! He bursts in the back door, runnin’ up the aisle, everyone’s totally psyched, and FYI, that’s when he invented the high five. That’s why we wait three days to call a woman, because that’s how long Jesus wants us to wait….True story”

too many Play Crack the Sky feelings
“I just feel like, for me, it’s the thing that makes me want to get out of bed in the morning. There’s other things that do too, it’s not like art is the only thing in some kind of romantic bullshit [way], but it’s the thing that I get most excited about still. The couplet that resolves the lyric. The chord change that moves the song from A to B. The string of phrases that sound different to me than what somebody else might say writing the same song. That’s the reason you do it.”
