(Continued from Land of Light and Cheer)

RJ!: This is a very dramatic song.
Nick: Very dramatic. I think this one's the most out of place for this album.
Hanna: Yeah.
RJ!: God Rest You Merry Gentlemen, given that...
Hanna: It's just a big spectacle and the other ones are just an epic joke.
RJ!: Yeah, pretty much.
RJ!: I mean, dear God, we have this and then comparatively I wrote a song called Shit, Let's Be Santa for this album.
Nick: So that's awesome.
RJ!: This song reminds me a lot of...
RJ!: Thomas Frick? Is his last name Frickle? Whatever.
RJ!: Orpheus' songs on The Felt. It reminds me of those that he did.
Nick: Yeah, The Felt.
Nick: It has some heavy felt influence.
RJ!: Yeah. Very felty.
Nick: I felt you would say that.
RJ!: I felt you would say that, yeah-- I was going to make that, but then I didn't.
Hanna: Hurr... durr...
RJ!: You've got some hardcore piano playing there.
