Marbles Considered Lost (song) – Oddly enough, this song was born out of a desire to have a title track, which was one of a short list of goals I had set for this album. None of the prior six albums had a title track. The album name, Marbles Considered Lost, had been chosen to poke fun at myself. Highlighting how crazy it is that I’ve been writing and recording these songs for almost thirty years now; in my spare time and on my own dime, and for no particular purpose. This song plays out as a stream-of-consciousness lament over the burden of compulsive work. It ends, however, with a powerful declaration of love for the end product of all that work; a justification of the effort expended.
Enjoy. Peace. Jason. Don.
