The lyrics of this song,
as they pertain to plot,
are my exact memory of the event.
I had spoken to the kid maybe a minute before the "action" started about how the pressure of the water was very strong. He was nestled down with his back…
Sadly, Annie and Allan are now divorced...
The games are over...
Annie & Allan
Annie and Allan were having a problem
Made a decision to go their own ways
Annie and Allan made an announcement
Not even knowing how it saddened…

When Layla comes over everything stops
When Layla comes over I put on my socks
I put on my shoes. I put on my shirt.

Something I missed for many years was singing in a choir. Now that I have multitracking I don't miss it any more.

Oh, please, don't let it undo me.
Let it level and true me

This was my dad's favorite song of mine about thirty years ago. Maybe it was because he just liked to hear me sing s positive song for a change.

Gonna cash in on my catfish bet
My bobber's a bouncin' and I'm gonna get wet
She said she'd fix me dinner if I caught a fish

PRETTY GIRL
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I must confess my heart is in a mess
Pretty girl
Some guys can walk up to a girl
Say, "Hey! I love you
They make it look like something
So easy to do
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I…

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.
Snow on the ground. Wind and temperatures below zero. It's time for another coffee table evening.
Recorded live around my coffee table with:
Mark Lofgren - Lead Guitar & Harmony
Colleen Dillon- Ukelele & Harmony
Greg Connor…
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?

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.

There's another plane that I'll ride
and only I know where I'm going
and without reason I can't think
and your lies won't let me sleep.

This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…
I decided to keep working on this one a bit on the "keep messing with it" program.... added some backing vocals and some piano.... kind of like where its heading after the one take wonder before... Any other suggestions are very welcome…
I wrote this song about 2 years ago and shared it here on Alonetone back then. I decided to do a studio recording of it recently. With the help of the team at F5 Soundhouse here in Minneapolis we've created this updated version. I hope you enjoy…
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
Thanks for pointing me to this link! This song grabbed me the first time I heard it and hasn't let go.
Thought provoking!
What a beautiful song. Your vocal harmonies are stunning!
Great tune....a nice unpredictable quality too it
Thanks for the kind words about my drum sounds... yeah, I guessed that the vocals on this one were all you - even more impressive :-)
Stunning vocals. Your choral arrangement is masterful. I'm envious of anyone who can sing this beautifully!
Beautiful. Just beautiful!
That was beautiful! Your brother, John Wayne forwarded this to me. I really appreciate your talent!
LOVE IT I get the feeling this isn't the first version of this that I've heard? Have you posted a different version before?
Rain must fall in everyone.
This is multilayered and feels like all across the universe movie if that makes sense. I feel the way I feel watching that movie. Nice
A song for a revolution
Cute and chirpy!
I wasn't expecting the change towards the end. Works very well.
A marvellous opening line. Grabs the attention. Lovely song.
Wonderful lyric!
Love the unfolding dimensions with the ageing of Layla. What a great track James.
I like it also. The lyrics are great. I am sort of a ballad girl. Sweet rain is nice.
I like it, Jim. :) A nice positive message. I love the tune and your musical setting for it, too.
Wow... Stirring, moving... Just wow.

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.

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.
