Written for/about Ben Montgomery. Answering machine messages wondering where he might be are from yours truly and Jason Biehler, his two closest friends who were always trying to track him down.
The first version.
This is the first and only song I wrote on [arrsuarez](http://alonetone.com/arrsuarez)'s Christmas gift to me, a mbira that he lovingly crafted by hand.

I love that the title has a period on the end. Almost makes it believable when it's below freezing outside.
Beautiful sound. You've really captured the feeling here.
Poured myself a small cup of acoustic guitar, half finger picking, half ebow. Nothing fancy, nothing magical, nothing fantastical, just something to relax through.
First draft.
Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.

You need locking up for crimes against poor, sentimental, over-sensitive ladies as they sit alone at night, in the dark (because these candles look lovely but are rubbish, to be honest) sipping red wine with only their dreams for company. Vocal rings out like a bell over already heartbreaking notes. I shoot you with my blubbing.
I took you seriously
I took it carefully
I didn't want to breathe too loudly
I walked around silently
I didn't say a word
Fear was there beside me
I know it sounds absurd
But so what?
So what.
I lived without money
I've lived without…
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.

Jason, you are late to the alonetone party, but I forgive you. This was deliciously hiorthoy-esque. I know you have a box of delicious tracks just waiting for us, hook it up!
Ha, yeah...I'm trying to get out of the habit of saying how undone I think something is. I think this song made me bring up [this forum topic](http://alonetone.com/forums/making-music/topics/do-you-ever-finish-your-tracks)
i started writing this song 5 years ago and finally recorded it this year. sad to say, but my $$ situation isn't that much different. this is a whiny song from a liberal-arts grad who is a brat and can't really make ends meet in NYC.
i definitely…
Wow, simply great! Nice hook, I could walk around singing this all day. Your voice spreads like icing on this fast paced but lighthearted musical cake.
SOOOOO glad to hear more music from your talented self!

Are sexually compatible…

I can't stand it when I miss great alonetone tracks like this one that were uploaded months ago. The 'mangoz' shuffle for the win!
I dug this tune out of the 9 month old archive and enjoyed it!
So much fun!
Tight production man, this one Carries.
Love how this crabbles out!
Agreed, I like the way this track moves!

This is the glu I was born to listen to.
Right up my alley. Thanks!
Enjoyed this!
This is my favorite so far of your recent uploads. Wild music, a bunch of fun to listen to.
That was fun!
Sweet, thanks for sharing this Dubble Erik!
This gets me moving, after 4:00 especially!
I listened to your stuff all morning! Great to work to, gets my blood flowing :)
Damn, that's some heavy verb on that "snare"! This is smooooooth, glu, thanks for the pop and crackle.
Your voice comes in like butter. Wonderful work, as always Anthony.
I like your voice a lot! A pretty song.
