Best song and album ever made/written IMO. If it's overrated, It isn't overrated enough.

the music is pretty neato but my favourite tool thing is that interview clip where there was a question about the whole mathematics thing that the fans get all hyped up over and the resonse was to insult the fans and I choked on my coffee trying not to spit it at the screen.

The song itself in the lyrics tells us to not overanalyze and overthink and just ride the spiral to the end, it may just go where no one's been. It both is a very complex and mathematically brilliant song when you analyze it closely, but at the same time the lyrics tell you to not try to think that much and just enjoy it. That was basically Maynard's response although he's a troll lmao.
