 * “I love this song so much. I’ve probably played it on the show before, but I don’t care. That’s how much I love it.” (on Could It Be I’m Falling In Love)

 * “This is why the show’s going so long, guys, is because I’m procrastinating on having to do the taxes. That is a hundred, thousand, billion percent true. I didn’t figure it out ‘till just now, but subconsciously that’s obviously what was going on; now it’s conscious.”
