Some of you may have heard a version of this song before. It's been fleshed out a little since then. "Maria" started out life as a Christmas song (hence "God bless Maria"), but it isn't (necessarily) any more. The pronouns are totally arbitrary, except to the extent that it seems like there needs to be a 'she' since the song is ostensibly about someone named Maria, normally a girl's name, and two 'she's would be confusing/borderline nonsensical. I also played around with 'I's and 'you's. But just so everybody knows they're arbitrary, the second verse is exactly the same as the first with only the pronouns changed.

There's some clipping coming in somewhere, but I can't find it. It's not on any track individually or even on any combination of two or more tracks. It's Chaos Theory at work: emergent clipping! I got rid of most of it by haphazardly fiddling with levels, but it's still there in at least one point. Oh well.

I almost apologized for the sloppiness of the playing, but if I start apologizing for being sloppy, I'll be apologizing for every single song, and I don't want to do that.
