Track 1 from the 2005 RMR release "Spoke Of Shadows".

I am concerned with the values of my generation.

Original working title was something like, "And after six years I finally understood why they sing in the streets here, and could go home." It's sort of about anonymity in the modern city. If that sounds pretentious, that's because it is.

The title is a reference to the rain in "Pain" and how once the pain is gone you feel like it's a new day. My first foray into multi-tracking vocals, with mixed results. I like the effect, but I just had realized I can sing about half way…

Pain is inspired by my bout with severe nerve damage in my lower back. As anyone who has ever had a good hurt can tell you, it gives you an internal feeling of chaos that often comes and goes in waves and spikes. The music follows this pattern…

Crescent fresh at best.

This was supposed to be a tribute to Daft Punk, the kings of the talking robots, but we ran out of time. Instead it's half a joke.
