"My Head"

Here's a song I wrote a long time ago -- back in high school when I was in my first band. We tried a bunch of names: DD-7 is one that I recall. I think we also tried Plaid Sasquatch. There were some others in there, too, until we settled on Circle Sky. Now that I think about it, we probably spent more time thinking of band names than we did working on music. But I did manage to build this song around a nonsensical chorus I'd thought of: "You stepped on my head, she said." I think I was trying to describe the life of an overworked housewife. It's the kind of thing that passes for deep when you're seventeen and it's 1990. In any case, my friend Joe Lavelle recently told me I should record the song -- so here it is, Joe...


PS: It's a free download this week. Just enter zero as the price you want to pay. Next week, I'll probably notch it up to a dollar.

PPS: Check out Joe's CD, More Popular Than Reagan!
