Was thinking about how odd it would be to run in to my old girlfriend. We dated for almost 5 years and it's been at least 8 since I've seen her. It's odd that you can be that intimate with someone and then when you DO run in to them, it's usually so superficial. "How's the weather..." type stuff.
I dig the background vocals in this, the melody is alright too. I rushed the recording. It may have some legs though. I used my loop pedal to create them. I built the song around the loop.
lil -I played hockey. -Happy new year!
Thank you! Good to know they're being heard and even better to know they're being enjoyed.

I was unable to listen to any of the samples on last.fm, for some reason. But I found your latest album, or much of it, on YouTube (
Love the album, by the way. It's very innovative. Without speaking of the music, I just love the lyrics. And I love that it has a particular, unique sound to it. It's hard to classify it. It's a folksy acoustic sound, although you have the big band sound with the brass... but then you sometimes have an electronica element... like I said, very distinctive. My favorite song is a tie between All in Its Place and Closet Smoker.
I can't wait to see how you progress with your looping experiments, given your past musical output!
