Orange Soda

I'm reading the book Trouble Boys which is a fantastic biography of The Replacements, and apart from being fired up about all the punk and rock and roll there was a line that struck me. Paul Westerberg said, "In general, music that's flawless is usually uninspired." So while my girlfriend was at the gym for an hour, I quickly recorded some guitar and vocals and spent another couple of hours putting some more stuff over it. I only have an acoustic guitar and a midi keyboard right now so I did my best. I mixed down a version and then started trying to mix it and clean it up but I was quickly sucking the life out of it -- so this is that first mixdown. It's probably the most energetic thing I've made since my high school days. Enjoy!
