The Story After choosing the relationship, this song moves into something that had always been there between us — how naturally we moved together. He used to comment on it all the time. How in sync we were. Walking somewhere, moving through a crowd, doing anything physical or mental. Our energy was aligned. We could be across a room from each other and know what the other was thinking, what was happening without a word being said.

Time of Our Life — The Story and Sound Behind the Song

Just Me and You Havin’ the Time of Our Life

The Story

“Time of Our Life” comes from a time in life when my daughter and I spent our days and nights together wandering Boulder, Colorado.

During the day, we walked everywhere. Boulder Creek, the foothills, trails, side streets and odd places that were known by very few. We never had much of a plan. We would take a turn, find something new and disappear into our own world for hours.

Then the sun went down and everything shifted to Pearl Street. Shops, concerts, late-night walks around Boulder and whatever happened next.

We were havin' the time of our life.

The Sound

“Time of Our Life” moves on a quick, loose groove with a West Coast alternative reggae edge. The verses push forward with an easy rhythmic flow, while the chorus opens into a bigger hook. Reggae and ska sit underneath the track, keeping the whole thing loose and moving.
