The incident described in this song is based on my reaction to a fellow I saw as I was leaving Ulibarri’s Barber Shop in downtown Flagstaff one day in the summer of 2009.

The idea sat in my “Music Sketches” folder until this month, when I filled in the rest of the lyrics as quickly as I’d allow myself.
This song was my contribution to the emuFest on Songcrafters.org: electronic instruments only. No guitars allowed.

Thanks!

Did you double your voice or is that an effect. The line, "our eyes meet" is pretty clever musically.
I'll have to try the same exercise when I get my stuff together.
