    Story Behind the Song
    This song came about from an inside joke myself and a former boss of mine shared. I had gotten this orange watch as a present from a good friend and she liked it as much if not more than myself. Well one day I lost it, she would constantly tease me that I left it at some other womans house and was too afraid to go get it. Jokingly she said I should write a song about the whole thing, a song about a love affair that ended with me losing the watch and she finding it at some other womans house. I kind of laughed and then one day while sitting at the piano out it came. Unfortunately she has not heard it yet because our store we worked out shut down before I had written it. Anyway this is for her. It was recorded by my friend Stephe who was in a group called Sukpatch, he produced the whole thing but we never thought it would turn out. It's full of one takes, mistakes and noise because we were good and drunk while recording it, we actually were amused with how terrible it sounded at first. Well after about 6 months went by he turned over this mix and it was amazing, I edited it down from 6:30 to 4:30, cleaned up some noise and toned down the bass, added some background vocals and voila! Here it is for you to enjoy!

    Lyrics
    And So I lost your love and can't remeber where.
    You've lost my favorite orange watch so don't that make us fair.
    So now we can move on and never have to look back,
    But I'll keep looking down to avoid all of these cracks.

    etc........
