about

A song about dating in the 2022 and all the pitfalls of swiping, fake profiles, fake photos, crazy people, stalkers and the like.

I had written the main chords of this song on my original Wurlitzer 200A many many years ago. Thus the name of the song. I never did anything with the chords until this song.

It was also clear from the beginning that once Sammy added the swing we wanted to channel our inner Terry Cath and Chicago and a tip of the hat to that early Chicago feel. Full Horns and Jimmy flat out just channeling crushing the guitar solo and we were there.

I wrote the middle part exclusively for Milo as I wanted a female singing the male response for even more irony.

lyrics

You said in the light of the night that you wanted to go
Pulling me tight and you said you wanted to know
You tell me more lies tell me tell me one more time
Your pictures don’t lie you cant swipe left to deny
Deny

Time and again I don’t know what’s behind
I see all the colors but now I’m color blind
The bar is low but I can reach so high
I can never stop and cant even wonder why
Wonder why

Thunder, Lightning,
All the worlds collide
Truth is unknown, on/by the bedside
Someone said now it’s time to go
But you stick around stick around now for the show

You wait upstairs, to look me in the eye
But I gotta go and there aint no reason why
Time is stopped and love is left behind
The day is done aint no need to rewind
Rewind
