Cover of the Glen Hansard track from the movie "Once".

from Live at KXCI Tucson, AZ studio session: When I was in the 7th grade, I used to skip school on Wednesday mornings so that I could watch the Nat King Cole show on PBS. I was mesmerized by his music. I could feel his vocal influence as I wrote…

The events in this song took place on and around an interstate outside of Detroit, MI named Seven Mile Highway.

I woke up from a vivid dream and wrote about it in "And So It Goes".

I wrote "Pioneer" about an idealist kind of man/relationship.
