[@lydiasilverstein5770]

I think Tyler's subtle approach to religion is a powerful one. He never denies his beleifs, but he presents them in such a mild way that I beleive it draws people in. The people on the fringes. He wont shove religion down your throught like some people are so terrified of that happening to them. But at the same time the underlying tone is there and it gives his songs real substance and deep meaning. Because in the end when you dont write about the superficial and silly surface ideas and topics like women and money, you start asking bigger questions and struggling with the idea of 'real stuff'. And thats where the fear comes in. 'real stuff' scares most people, or at least gives them some mild fear. I think its natural to want to beleive in something bigger than yourself, i personally do. But tyler presents his thoughts and struggles in a way that I think most people, no matter what your involvement in religion is or is not, can relate to. And they to can then begin to ask themselves important questions. Its all about making people think, if they let the lyrics really sink in.

I really like this interviewer! He's so uplifting to them I mean they're making fun of themselves but then he's there like "but you still walked out with all those reviews". And when he talks about their music and their genre, he's so respectful and I feel like he gets them, while still remaining slightly funny. Some interviewers could take an example from him.

[@cicikyuu2429]

This is so accurate I can't even express it. This interviewer's gotta be my favorite. So many interviewers nowadays are so disrespectful.

[@adrianjohnson4474]

i remembered like back around February 2014 i deleted all my Christian/ religious music (tenth avenue North. the band red hillsong) etc. and had enough of them and their "sugar coating" main part was to make more space in my phone to download all of tøp. at the time i just thought it was like fob or p!atd but when i find those lil biblical/story/questioning meaning behind each other song there was no words it was fantastic to know that someone out there was putting/singing into words that like yo i feel the same. i question life too. i fear. i believe. i want to say hello too. like they brought me back to my belief and i love them okay bye lol
