I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

It's our wedding anniversary today. 30 years married (33 years shacked up).

I've loved one, liked one and loathed one.
But they meant I could borrow living costs over summer, so yay!
