Dang, well 1st off , I see you've been churnin' out tha Christmas ditties, Good fer You... Likin' this tune, cool twist at tha end. Did'nt see that 1 comin'... c):~)

Beautiful lyric and chord progression - love the female vocal and background harmonies and the overall sentiment of the piece - well done!

A beauty of a track!

Ah another gem from the master story-teller.

always a great story line....happy turkey day

Wow. Thanks. That was an unexpected ending.

Damn, I gotta go trade my coffee in for a beer.

Oh so poignant JM.

Well, I'm not going to slag off Ruth, after all, she came out good in the end!

Oh, I love your backing vocals.

Great,I love song.Keep up good work

Great song and lyrics....sooo soothing to listen to.

Beauitiful... simply beautiful.

Eric Swartz needs a great country song like this in his show. And...it's so true.

I'm amazed again at your dexterity for touching my heart with your songs of loss and unrequited love. After listening to this song I had to take a deep breath to regain my footing. Thanks for sharing once again with us JMT.

I like it. It has JMT written all over it. Wish you could loan me some of that ability that seems to come so easy for your brain but so hard for mine.

Are you from Portland Oregon? Did you have a brother named Joe and a nephew named Joe-Ben?

This is an awful song!

A very lovely and a very gentle song with a message. The words feel right. The music is soothing. Yep. This is a good one. The Woodlake Heron

Lovely lyrics and beautifully done JM.

I find this very soothing. I like the way you build it and then take it back to the theme before taking it on out.

This is really peppy. Like the snappyness of the midi stuff. Maybe I'll try some midi guitar.

I really like this song. Especially the vocal. Sad Rock! But...there are places it's so far back into the mix that I can't tell what she is saying. AND...thanks for listening to my music.

Strange how you have such happy music with such sad story.

Acoustic Tull. Love it.

Very good lyric and delivery. Please put your words up.

No, I never wrote the song, but always thought I would begin the song with the sound of my 12 guage shotgun as I open the action. Gunshots and clapping are very hard to record. But there are plenty of places to go grab a sample.

You commented on my song I KEEP MY RADIO ON. You also added, "I once had someone call me selling a security system. I told them “I don’t need it.” They will only come in here once." Did you write that song?

Morgan Lindley said - That is awesome. Next time you see me I'll be playing that song. I'm stoked you have a tab for it

Jon Hogan said - You are a master of your art. It's the auditory equivalent of a bracing Charley Russel, or a fine Rembrandt, or a poem by Keats or a short story by Hemingway; like these, you have become a master of your art.

Jon Hogan said - We were speachless after it was over, up to about the count of ten. We were staring at each other, such a mix of feelings.... then we both laughed out loud to keep from crying. Mindblowing is all I can really think to say, simply mindblowing.

Maria Moss said - Oh yeah. We stopped typing on our laptops and just listened. And then we both went "oh yeah!"

Sooooo relaxing...

Very soothing.

Boy, this is a wake up. Love the energy.

Immediately captures the harshness. The unpredictability of it.

Been there.

I've got no monopoly on clever... Especially like, "Is there nothing you believe in that could not withstand a scrutinous review?"

Nice wake-up song. Like the harmonies.

Enjoying this again. Such a fine song. So well done.
