In Their Words: “In one of our last writing sessions before we started the recording process, I had brought a demo of a soulful, guitar groove to Tim. I kept repeating the phrase while Tim worked towards the main melody on guitar. We decided that it was quite effective when he sang along with the guitar line. The lyrics are about the departure from the womb and the desire to return. We really loved how this track came out sonically and in the performance. Song 1, Side B is an important spot on a record so we gave it to ‘Leaving The Valley.'” — Greg Loiacono, The Mother Hips
