Hmm, this seems like a strange title for chiptune, kinda. Well, there is good reason for that. This wasn't a chiptune originally. It was actually a medium/slow tempo jazz tune I composed as a Christmas gift for my wife. The title of the song refers to something I say to her alot (one of those cheesey things a husband says to a wife, I guess).
I think it translates just fine to the NES though, and I'm actually pleased with how the emulated NES "noise" channel sounds just like snare drum being played with brushes. This works great for jazz tunes.
Instead of the usual "here is an interesting YouTube video that is related to the song on some way," you are actually getting a real, live performance of this song in its original form: with *myself* on guitar, my good friend Jason Gahler on bass (he also plays bass on "What Is Paragon?" and "Zeitgeber") and Al Ashby on tenor sax. The pictures are from my honeymoon in 2006.
