A young man and his first car. It's a typical subject to write a song about. As you have seen from the thumbnail you are probably wondering why this particular vehicle would inspire me to write a song. My 1989 Dodge Omni was a unique, small, and fun little car. Though I was very self conscious about many things in highs school I drove this car with pride. My sister and I bought it outright for $500 dollars and I loved taking care of it. I didn't care that it looked like the basketball team could throw it across the parking lot. It was my first little taste of freedom and independence. The last verse mentions a lack of Anti Lock Brakes. That became abundantly clear one winter day when I was running late for a church service that our high school choir was singing at. I slid right through a four way stop after failing to break early enough. Luckily it was early enough that the roads were devoid of traffic.
I had a lot of fun writing and recording this song. The vocals are still the weakest part by far but I think they are better than my previous attempts. Enjoy!
