Robert White Beautiful Song James Michael Taylor! Thanks for sharing! 🤗

Kat Angel James Michael Taylor Delightful!

Kat Angel Good wake up song. I can see the teacher playing this song for the kids at the start of their school day and they all sing along.

Cathy Maxwell · 1:51 that's a great HAPPY song!!!

Marcie Brooks Oh, I LOVE this! The fact that your camera placement, while swaying and playing, made me feel like I was actually swinging to the song. GENIUS!

Laurie Callinan James Michael Taylor thats great… we are alone till we share

What a poignant song, Jim! It captures so well the joy many of us had in simple pleasures like swinging--and how our grandchildren are lured at very early ages to the artificial razz-ma-tazz of cell phone games. I remember what joy my youngest son had, swinging on the tire swing we hung up in one of our backyard trees so many years ago. He'd spend hours, climbing onto the nearby picnic table (seated on the tire), jumping off, and letting the tire sway and spin. I feel sad that my grandson didn't get that kind of kinesthetic experience and all the pleasure it could bring.

Brent Woods Oh it brought back memories of a swing when I visited my Grandmother ! Bitter Sweet Memories of times gone by.! Thanks for bringing that back to me !

Allen Hurt I love it my friend, very well thought out and i love the way you pick throught it. Keep up the great buddy

Kat Angel Heartfelt, you told the story so well...I was there

Brent Woods This one got Me ! I'm humming it now ! Man oh Man . . . Greatness !

Brent Woods James Michael Taylor my Friends. One of the Greats and I'm proud to say . . . Friend !

Yes. The listener knows from the beginning that she is gone, but the sadness becomes haunting when the harmony was t his ear. Enter You sent I see. Enter You sent My sadness begins when I sing, "She's been gone for three years..."

When does THERE SHE WAS begin to engage the listener and what about it makes the listener sad? Enter Lazarus Lazarus Knight To me, iy was when he heard her harmony in his ear.

Made me cry. - Laz

"Damn. advise from a murderer." Steve Theskin

Greg West My favorite JMT song.

Please send me a link or the lyrics to the song about "there she was". That is a masterpiece! - Lazarus

Tony Desmuke Thanks for writing such a great song and sharing it.

Tony Desmuke I just listened to it as well. Happy that I did, it's great

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.
