nice alt version although i still like the original version best

Go get-um Jim.

Bet u had fun doin this james..rockin like fuuuuuck!!!

Love this "Happy" too. Buddy was the greatest!

Pure poetry, sung! And I love the clarinet (?) with the strings. Beautiful sound!

You got me chuckling this morning. 40 seconds of truth.

Great melody, love the story and you perform it so well!

Unforgettable! Will become an earworm for some. Very disturbing, this scenario, but "same as it ever was." This country has been exploiting the land/resources/culture/heritage/peace of mind/environmental balance/spiritual elements of our native peoples since the very beginning. Began on the backs and bones of the indigenous, and developed economically on the backs and bones of the slaves. Yea, us. A city set on a hill!

Love this story! Awesome poetry

Great lyric, performed with emotion. Nice job!

Nice one James ! There's a lot going on, brilliant !

That is a good song that sticks in you mind , you feel it after you hear it

Like this. Lyrics, melody, effects, rhythm. Good job!

beautiful...

this is very nice indeed.....

Love this.

I don't want to repeat myself over and over. Kudos for another great song! :)

good song james..

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.

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.
