Straight from Mark's four-track to your CD player. Nine stripped-down acoustic numbers about driving and loneliness. And people driving away from you, thereby leaving you...alone. And also about doing some driving yourself, because the only way to get away from the loneliness is by leaving it behind and the fastest way to leave something behind is by driving and maybe when you get where you're driving to there's something there that will make you feel not so lonely. Or maybe it's just the drive itself that's what you're looking for. And then there's also a little bit of Britney Spears thrown in for good measure, because everyone knows that sex sells. Mark later went on to form The Accident That Led Me To The World, but Leaf Tornado is an important stepping stone on the path towards what was to be.
