Can't believe it 4 – A song about an old friend. Demo date: April 2005 Let it roll demo – The original let it roll demo. Different words, different arrangements….but the same spirit as the album track. West Virginia freeway ride – Justin’s parents live in West Virginia. This song is about the drive down south and the things you think about when you drive for a long time and the scenery is beautiful.     I will love you somehow always 2 – A song about love and breakups. Demo date: May 2005 If I could climb – reminiscent of Steve Martin walking on a beach with a ukulele. It’s meant to be a very light hearted and optimistic song but I think it ends off sounding a little sad too. Jody – a loosely based adaptation of the book ‘the yearling’ set in Williamsburg.

Of stars and other somebodies stripped – Originally intended as a segue moment for “The Orchestra,Sadly, has Refused”, this track evolved, through several   demo states, from loud and bombastic to its current “stripped” down feel. Oh holy night – Shannon likes this. I think it appeals to his hatred of small towns. Oh will I be saved – Another break up song. I can dream Final demo – written eons ago in response to mercury rev’s deserters songs. It’s about getting older and finding ways to     continue to make music while all these ‘other things’ that you want star tshowing up in your life. Demo date: Feb 2004 Pretty things 2005 – a song about the first few days of love and the summertime. Synergy – This song is about walking through prospect park and how being in different states of mind can paint experiences like that in any number of ways.     Sumday – Written alongside Let it Roll in 2004, this demo is a slightly darker attempt at creating a layered, multi-sectioned orchestra pop song that swoops about in dynamic and mood. This has nothing to do with your little heart – It clearly did. When stars attack – sitting on line at the grocery store, I (Justin) saw the phrase “when stars attack” blazoned across the cover of some tabloid. I think it had a picture of Charlie sheen leaping at a photographer or something. It’s an open ended concept and I was very liberal with it…
