Written in the summer of 2011 on the island of Giudecca, Venice, our first stop in Italy. We had no idea what we were going to do with this song at that point but recorded a ukulele track in our apartment with the windows open where the sound of a boat passing was picked up along with the water. This simple ukulele track became the basis for the rest of the recording.

This track came together within a few days of arriving in Perugia, Italy in September 2012. Unintentionally, the song was written while it was recorded and so we followed through and this is the end result.

We recorded this off-the-cuff one Sunday afternoon in Perugia, Italy. We hadn't played it for a long time. The song was written in 2006 with a demo recording made in 2007. The demos were intended for a second David William album which never happened. Now this song has found itself into the SoulJahm canon and another we wish to realise its full potential by recording properly sometime.

From the David William album 'One Way Ticket' (2006)
