The music is progressive with a few interesting chords. The lyrics are well worked and head toward poetry.

Elisha Zaporelostzi's first performances were the Open Stages put on by the Bytown Live in Ottawa Ontario, Canada. It is how Neil Young and Joni Mitchell started. Phreap magazine is a one page thing that went around Ottawa in the 1980s. Now it is a web site; http://home.att.ne.jp/blue/patchan With the help of Joe-Charly Smith, Molly Ding, Calhoon-Fred Febealie, and Butter Jones I was able to put out Phreap magazine.

Story behind the song
For about 4 years in a row at the start of my song writing period I would write a song on New Years Day. This is one of those and it can be taken as a New Years song. In 2000 I did 8 Takes of this on tape and I thought it worked best of all the songs I have tried starting out with a midi file. Early this year I did 3 new digital takes of it and I can not decide whether or not Take 2 is better than this Take 3. I will put up Take 2 around New Years.
