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.

I agree with glu. This track is downright special and strange, and the samples are OUT there. Reminds me a lot of the books. As soon as I get the favorites feature going, this is on my list!
These three tracks are great, man.
Got any more goodies? I'm sure alonetone would eat them up, you tunes are catchy, well produced, and each one is a fun lyrical journey.
Together, this album is an amazing piece of work, and especially so for a 30 day adventure. Congrats again, and looking forward to listen to your new stuff.

Hey there! Best way to respond to a comment is to simply comment on the same track. It's on my todo list to make it a bit more friendly! Thanks!

a barrel of fun, this has an awesome loose feel to it. was it recorded live, or did you piece it together? It really sounds like a good ole time.
Dizzam. This was the first thing I listened to upon return from the countryside. Killer organ and groove.
Damn, this track is insane to listen to. It sounds like I'm going to the dentist on speed. The fraggy distorted beats are awesome.
This tune is great fun to listen to.
Aww, I didn't want this playlist to end! These tracks are great, brando. I could listen all day. You have any more?
Wow, how did i miss this one, it's fucking great guys.
Nodding my head like a mofo to this one.
...just breathe, it's alright...

The synth sound at 1:30 is great!
More please! :)

GREAT intro track to the album, guys.
Woah, the kick in this one sounds like my upstairs neighbors banging on the floor.
So, I'm on skype video chatting with my father, when he gets on alonetone, puts on this song, and starts dancing.
ha! you are right davey, especially for in progress stuff. I just had the itch to share it.
Be patient, the choruses is missing, as is the nice soft bass, a sprinkle of piano and a bit more of that electric guitar.
Hilarious in a VERY good way, mind you. Like in a "ahhhhh, why is it so funny and so goooooodness?'
