In Their Words: “A doo-wop ballad literally based upon our drummer Victoria’s true story about a car crash in the dead of Chicago winter on the banks of Lake Michigan; with narrative and a happy ending. One day in rehearsal, Rob just started playing along and singing her narration as she told the story. Then Paul and Paul chimed in with back up vocals and it felt like we had something unique right there. It’s pretty much just as we created it in that moment in the rehearsal studio.” —Paul Lacques, I See Hawks in L.A.
