This is the first song on the first CD I ever compiled. You'll notice a piano as the primary instrument, and extensive use of horns. I wrote it years ago, and play it when I need some cheering up. Hope you like it.

Again substituting a guitar for a drum kit but this time an acoustic.
Structurally, a more straight-forward piece, sounding more like a band than some of the other Ca Va? Oui, Ca Va! songs.

This is day 24 of my 24 day project. So that means it's over.
And if you're reading this on alonetone, this is lucky track number 100.

We found a nice bathroom, and, moved by whimsy, decided to write this little shuffle for y'all. Took us about 15 minutes to write and record. It'd lose its spontaneity, otherwise, no?

The original mix (on the RPM '09 album) was drenched in mic hiss. I used noise reduction to remove about 2/3 of it for this version (it didn't seem right to remove it completely). I roll off the noise reduction at the end for the au naturale outro.

Words are from a sestina of the same title by Steve Davenport, who asked us to make music out of it! This was a terribly fun song to record. We did it, of course, while drinking. Thankfully no instruments were harmed.
