      The aim of the present paper is to show that minimal non-uniquely ergodic behaviour can be generated by slowing down a simple harmonic ascillator with diophantine frequency, in contrast with the known examples where the frequency is well approximable by the rationals. The result is effected by a singular time change that brings one phase point to rest. The time-one map of the flow have uncountably many invariant measures yet every orbit is dense, with the minor exception of the rest point.
