How fabulous is that title, “One Life Stand”. I’ve never been known as the music guru, but I know when I really like a song or when music really hits me…
Picture this moment with me. When I was in the midst of VERY early mornings working on this blog, I had one morning in particular that I just couldn’t sleep. So at 2:30 I left my husband sleeping contently and headed off to my computer. It was the first cool fall morning and I had left the office window open, so the room was particularly cold.
I made a warm cup of coffee (Peet’s Major Dickason’s – is there any other kind???).
Poured it in my favorite Juliska coffee mug, (mug of the CENTURY see more info in the Favorite’s Gallery), wrapped up in a cozy blanket and sat down to work.
About an hour later my east coast emails started arriving and I clicked on a link in a good friends email to see a video that had just been released.
I kid you not, it was one of those moments that grabbed at my heart strings. Although my husband and I did not start out as a one night stand (both of our parents just stopped breathing for a solid 60 seconds reading that line…) listening to Damon Castillo’s, “One Life Stand”, on that cold morning, holding that warm cup of coffee in my hand… with the whole house so peaceful and quiet, it just gave me that sweet, sweet ride down memory lane. The early start of my husband’s and my relationship, how much fun it was getting to know each other, all those moments that bring you so quickly to the present. We have been together 6 1/2 years, and married 3 years this Wednesday. I am married to an amazing person and we have 2 of of the most darling baby girls. I feel so fortunate to be sharing in this One Life Stand.
Take a minute to enjoy, grab a cup of coffee, a glass of wine, or get in your car and open your sun roof ALL THE WAY… listen to “One Life Stand”, download it from 
, share it with your friends, and appreciate your One Life Stand. I promise, the song will become a new favorite!

Enjoyed the song-played to co-workers this AM, LOVING my Peets coffee and thankful for some motivation to help get the day going!
Love it!
Personally, I thought Starbucks Kenya was the only coffee. Dare I try Pete’s. You’re right on everything else…I might have to give it a go.
Awesome song! Never heard of the band…but the whole album is great!
As far as the coffee goes…I’m a total wimp & can’t handle the real stuff…has to be Dunkin Donuts vanilla flavored coffee all the way!
I dig it. I have never heard of Damon Castillo before and I really like his voice so I will have to check more of it out. I liked a lot of the art deco-y decor in the video…especially some of the mirrors. Cute! thanks for sharing and happy early anniversary.
Right on!
Great song and the entire record is awesome as well!
Thanks for posting!!!

After listening to One Life Stand, I’m ready to make a One Band Stand! Thanks for the Damon Castillo Band. I don’t drink coffee but the day (and night) will always be right with Damon’s fine voice and beauteeeful songs. Thanks!
