Two Twenty-Nine (Valentine Remix)

beatnikturtle

Original song: from the album, TheSongOfTheDay.com - February. This song refers to February 29th, or Leap Day. It also refers to heartbreak and loss, but that’s not nearly as important as Leap Day. The observant listener will notice that back in 2007 when we were doing TheSongOfTheDay.com project, it wasn’t a leap year, and while we considered delaying entire project one entire year just so this song could fall on 2-29, we just decided to release it on February 28 instead.

By the way, we’re aware that the existence of an intercalary day in a leap year originated under the Egyptian pharaoh Ptolemy III in 239 B.C. and it was Aloysius Lilius who proposed the Gregorian calendar in the 1500s - not Gregory. We just found “Gregory” much more singable.
