Horn infused pop number, new twist on Bossa Nova beat, and a nod to Burt Bacharach isnt a bad thing.

Here it is in its final form, with backup vocals by the one and only Ashinique Williams, engineering by Chris Kendrick at Whiskey Bear Studios, Virginia Beach, Virginia.  This started off with a blues riff in open G tuning, and got expanded w keyboards and big vocals during the Chorus. Then the main riff/verse needed to be funked up to keep up with the Chorus - so added some synths - bring in more backup vocals in the traditional soul fashion.  Lyrics are a comment on the times, lawyers, bankers, digital backdoors, and the many characters on both sides - including the  little characters that sit on each of our shoulders from time to time.. Hope you like the groove!
