I love this.

Mindful listening is a lost art in and of itself. Hearing the "ROOM" that these old recordings were made in. It really brings out the human connection aspect of music. It's fun to dance and to have something on in the background to keep your mind occupied, between the hustle and bustle....

But to actually LISTEN and FEEL what went into the craft of transforming a moment in time to something tangible and replayable. Knowing in that instant, as the button on the tape machine clicks and the rest, well the rest is history isn't it?

Thanks Colin! Great track sir!

I think the cowbell comes in as a wake up call. The singer initially sees her across the room and is so taken with her that he can see her breathe. Then I hear the middle, dreamy spacey portion as a fantasy where he imagines going up to her, they leave together, it’s amazing… then the cowbell… no, actually he’s still just at the party, watching her dance. And maybe feels a little foolish, like a kangaroo.
