*This was "Watercourse." This last weekend, I recorded all the main vocals, bgvs, the whole bit. I played it for Jennifer, and she knew (rightly) it wasn't ready. And she said that the first 40 seconds of the song worked, but everything beyond that lost its way. She was really right.
So here is a new instrumental. I have new melodies and lyrics already swirling. I will record them when I return home from tour, so yes, this is going to be the last one I end up shipping out for mixing/mastering.
