"Totally. Yeah. You have that any time. We had that with 'How You Remind' and then with the single after that, 'Too Bad', and then single after that, 'Never Again'. When everything did what it was sort of projected to do, when it was doing what it was supposed to do it was a huge relief. Like I said, I'll refer back to what I just said, this whole thing is based on what if's and crazy things happening that you don't expect that could be good, bad or otherwise. I've never seen a business with this many variables."

"It's not really anxiety, but a sense of relief that we got it this far. Life's just full of a bunch of what if's and when you do this you realize that one crazy thing can happen and the whole thing can stop. Do you know what I mean?"
