In late 2004 early 2005, Bill decided to call it quits and for a short time FLO would just be Joe until later that year where he dropped the FLO moniker and now tours and records under his own name.
Joe has gone on to release a new album called "A Day in My Shoes" released in the summer of 2006, and currently has an EP "On the Mend" due out in fall of 2007. In addition Joe is working on a full band side project by the name of Hello Jersey.

Feeling Left Out Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
to forget to say,
"You look nothing short of amazing."
Saturday...Saturday
Guess who adores you?
Seems like we never have enough time.
(seems like we never have enough time.)
But remember we have all the time,
I finally seemed to catch my breath around you
whenever you leave
I can't seem to breathe til i see you again
I finally seemed to catch my breath around you
whenever you leave
I can't seem to breathe til i see you again
(goodnite)
think of nothing to do and we'll do it
take off your shoes and rest your head
take it into my pillow to capture your scent
so i can breathe once you've left
Ain't it just like me
to forget to say,
"You look nothing short of amazing."
Saturday...Saturday
Guess who adores you?
Seems like we never have enough time.
(seems like we never have enough time.)
But remember we have all the time,
we have all the time in the world.
I finally seemed to catch my breath around you
whenever you leave
I can't seem to breathe til i see you again
I finally seemed to catch my breath around you
whenever you leave
I can't seem to breathe til i see you again
(see you again)
see you again, see you again
The lyrics to Feeling Left Out's song "Once Upon a Time" are about being in the moment with someone special and forgetful of all the anxieties of the world. The first stanza talks about how the singer forgets to say how amazing the person looks, indicating that they may be too caught up in their own thoughts or insecurities to express their admiration for the other person. However, they do make up for it by saying that they adore the person on Saturdays, but it seems like they never have enough time together. The singer reminds the person they have all the time in the world, and even though they struggle to breathe and catch their breath when the person is away, they have to remember to live in the moment and cherish the time they have together.
The second stanza talks about sharing space and time with the person. They think of nothing to do and embrace each other's presence. The singer captures the other person's scent in their pillows to remember them once they have left. The stanza repeats the first one almost verbatim, emphasizing the importance of expressing one's feelings toward others and living in the present. The repeated line emphasizes the longing and heartache that comes with separation and wanting to be with the other person again.
Overall, the song emphasizes the importance of living in the moment, cherishing the time spent with loved ones, and not forgetting to express admiration and adoration towards them. It's a reminder to stop getting caught up in our own thoughts and insecurities and to cherish those around us.

Goodnight
think of nothing to do and we'll do it
Being content with each other's company
take off your shoes and rest your head
Encouraging you to relax
take it into my pillow to capture your scent
Holding onto a piece of you
so i can breathe once you've left
Finding comfort in your lingering scent
