I was stretched out on the hood of an old car, playing guitar, looking for shooting stars and it just seemed to write itself. The slide guitar part is a Fender Stratoscaster plugged into a Manny's fuzztone box, run through a Hammond organ Leslie speaker set on chorus. Yeahhh!" Enjoy! --Demian McLean
