Q: In the song "at the airport terminal" you used some of the most insightful imagery and lyrics to make a true work of art. my personal favorite being "bvzvbsvzsbvsvbszvsbvzsbsvbzbszbsb" how do you come up with such beautiful art?
A: basically the thing about that was, i was originally expecting lyrics to fill that melody entirely. i knew the first line (at the airport terminal the planes are landing) and i was expecting more words to go in the second line, and nothing was working. as soon as i had the idea of just doing a plane sound effect there, suddenly the whole verse came together very easily. Sometimes in songwriting it's important to remember to space things out a bit, and it's easy to forget that writing a song is much slower than listening to a song, so sometimes it's good to remind yourself to let an additional moment go by for the previous lyric to be absorbed
