Nice. But (Beatles reference in three.. two..) “the way things are going”, I think the first two words alone would have been even better.

The other day my wife reminded me of days when we spent some time hanging out and performing with one William Rottman, who at the time had just released a wonderful album containing this song called “Happy”.

I decided to queue it up a while ago, and was sadly astounded to see it's gotten only just over 7900 view since 2011.
