• 'pretty ears' - i wrote this with the talented London singer/songwriter Joe Cang . that's him singing and Thad DeBrock playing electric guitars. i played acoustic and made other noises
• 'i'll wait for you' - lots of programming on this one, co-written with Nancy Magarill (vocals), Dave Eggar (cello), and Lucia Micarelli (violin). it's on Nancy's new album entitled "Down Below The Rodeo"
