really glad you enjoyed the songs.

I think reggae is a good vibe for ☮ccupy also. I wrote the lyrics to "Girl Next Door" in 20 minutes and the whole song in about an after watching a sweetheart of a 20 yr old girl get totally stoked about the movement. She was walking around in circles talking about how we are going to change the world and she was so unrestrained and excited it inspired me to right the song on the spot.

I bet Bob Marley would have loved ☮ccupy too!
