It’s so calm and smooth, totally digging it. Ana Maria Mejia Morales: Smooth. Yes. Nice bass, nice voice. Reminds me of Usher’s Confessions. Grace Rose: Issa vibe. I dig this. I don’t understand the title, though. How are you lost in your boots? Did you get lost in a shoe store? Maybe I’m just too exhausted to get this metaphor. Neil MacAlister: I'm digging this, too.
