Cover art for New Year's Kiss lyrics by Casiotone for the Painfully Alone

I love it when you recognize places in songs. I spent 3 months in San Francisco this year and walked past the Phone Booth and the Beauty Bar on Mission a dozen times and now the song's atmosphere is even stronger. Anyway. I have to second thewahwah's idea about the song's protagonist crossing her fingers, hoping she didn't get pregnant.
