A few days ago, Kyle and I were in the garden turning over the ground between the garden beds, in order to aerate the soil and discourage the growth of weeds. We each had a different way of doing this; I was using a rake, whereas Kyle was using two “claw” tools. When we were down to our last two beds, we decided to make things interesting with a little wager. However, we couldn’t agree on the stakes. Finally, after 15 minutes of deliberation, I suggested that the loser should have to compose a “losing song,” perform it in front of a camera with the piano, and post the result online, within two days. The idea was for the loser to be humiliated—which, given our respective piano and songwriting skills, didn’t seem like much of a question.

So, one day late but true to my word, here is my losing song. Enjoy. (The title came from Kyle; if you don’t know what “pwned” means, see Wikipedia.)
