wondering how you got here again

A retooling of the song done a year later for The Party 2005. It ended up winning the MP3 competition (because I was too late in entering it in the tracker competition).

Overnight

Gray reflections

This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?

THE BUDS AND BLOSSOMS
I've been meaning to write you a letter
But I did not know what I would say
I've been thinking about you and your new love
And wishing that there was a way...
And the buds and the blossoms remind me of you today…

One publisher told me, after listening to this song, "I don't like songs about Texas." I responded, "This is not about Texas."
