The recording benefits from guitar solos by Hugh Williams from Fernandina Beach, Florida, & other session guitar players. It has a gentle rhythm to keep you awake. The melodies and arrangements are soft and smooth, so you can listen to the song while you work or read. There are plenty of catchy hooks in the song. This recording fits perfectly alongside tunes by Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, Daryl Hall or Christopher Cross. The song is meant to make you feel good no matter your life circumstances. With breezy vocals, the lyrics of the song invite the listener to practice "mindfulness" by focusing on the feelings of sadness or tiredness they are experiencing. As Dr. Janina Fisher observed, people not only remember stories, they also memorize feelings. The song asks you: Does this bad feeling you are experiencing correspond to something that is happening right now, or is it simply something you learned as a child? The final hook of the song says: There is no danger in the now.

In the second half of the decade, Dario became interested in Buddhism and other spiritual teachings and from then on his songs all had positive and encouraging messages.
