"That’s a deep cut. That’s for the fans."

Cris Cohen: “Stay Weird” technically hasn’t been released as a single. What’s fascinating is that, despite not being pushed as a single, it’s been deeply embraced by your fans, the Coffin Crew. People post photos of their “Stay Weird” tattoos. It’s breaking through on its own. Once you release a song, it’s not really yours anymore, is it?

Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait: That’s it. The fans decide the fate. They decide what’s next. “Stay Weird” is the song they really love. And I like that it’s not a single. Not everything has to be a single.

I love that the fans hold that song. They cherish it. It’s theirs.

I don’t want it to be a single. I kind of put my foot down. The label was like, “The fans really connect with that one.” I said, “That’s fine. Let them have it. Let them have their own imagery for it.” I don’t need to sell it. That’s a deep cut. That’s for the fans.

And here’s the thing: if it had been a single and gone super viral, we would have to play it every night. I like teasing it. I like the question of, are we going to play it tonight or not? I think it’s fun.
