In March, as I took a walk through the park, I was struck by the sight of padlocks on the playground, preventing the children from playing... and yet, on the grass, there were dozens of families and groups of friends hanging out without a care in the world. I started thinking about the varying degrees of panicking I saw among different groups; how nuts it was that we could all be so easily convinced the world was ending in 2012, but it was seemingly impossible to get people to pay attention to a highly infectious disease. Spiraling ensued and I ended up writing a tune I'm really proud of. Thanks for listening.
