Trivia

  • It was named after a quote from the Bible.
  • It reached #3 on both the US and UK Charts.
  • According to Ben Blackwell, no one has yet correctly identified the object Jack is holding on the cover. A more popular guess is that Jack is holding some sort of elongated, possibly ancient lightbulb (after all, in the letter in the GBMS liner notes, Jack says "under my arm is a device with conductivity and I gave it to you."). In addition, visual evidence has shown that the object is most likely a Tesla bulb of some sort -- see this picture of a Tesla coil).
