    "Alu'a" is the Tongan word for goodbye when you are staying and the other person is going. "Rest" is an album dedicated to this sentiment. I wrote the songs over a duration of three years (2005-2008) and recorded it in the last year by myself in my room in San Francisco. Sometimes you can hear someone doing dishes or the beep of a dying smoke-detector. This album is an example of the slow, whispering tempo, slanted harmonies and embellished metaphors that I grew up listening to.

    These recordings would have never been possible be it not for the help and generosity of my friends who lived in that house on Thomas Ave. (Jay, Sandra, Sylvia, Erika, Skip, Mander).

lyrics

It would be so nice
To wake up with your face in mine.
'Cause I want it for a second time,
I want it and I don't know why.

All my hours are spent just thinkin
That all my hours are a waste
It doesn't bother me.
'Cause I know I say a lot of things
And I know you say a lot of things about me.

It has to be quiet now
The neighbors upstairs complained again.
I have another month or so
Before I'm free to leave
Before I can go.

Oh, will I hear from you when I get home?
And will you be there when I get going again?
Because, sometimes,
I find it's so hard
To be just your friend.
