    This song was inspired after a conversation with some close friends about the need to write a song about something topical.  The idea was to write something that is in the current wave of headlines like" the Japan tsunami" but of course not that specifically.  We didn't have any ideas until I blurted out "Hey, I just bought a new Android today!"  And that led to all of us thinking along the lines of a song about the new smart phone.  I came up with the line "dumb shit with a new smart phone" the day I bought the phone.  Then Nancy Nunziati helped me with some very important lines in the song, like: "how's my battery life?" and "can you hear me now?"  The phrase I Phone Therefore I Am is taken from Rene Descartes famous quote "I think therefore I am" regarding thought as a precursor of being.  The guitar part is a variation on a very famous tune that even the Doors plagiarized called "Asturias".  Asturias (or Leyenda) was written around the turn of the century by Issac Albeniz; you can hear me play the original here.
