Hey now. Hoe now. Hey now. Hoe now.
Chop that cotton. row now. Oh. Oh.
...two, three, four. Hoe now. Hey now.
What you got to say, now? Tell me what you
said. What’s in your pretty head now.
Swing your partner. Oh. Allemande right…

GROWL
In the middle of the night my stomachs growling’
The windows rattle and the coyotes howling’
Tip toe to the pantry to do a little prowling’
The cupboard’s empty and the well’s run dry
Not enough water to tear my eye

CHRISTMAS IN MY HEART
Dear Mom and Dad,
I know you worry.
I know you're tired.
But I know you are thinking of me.
Your letters keep me inspired.
When the time comes and I can't leave,
Sand in my boots, sours on my feet
I'll stand the heat because…
A CASKET AND A ROSE

There's nothing quite as slow to grow
Than a cherry laurel tree
A fingerling that grows beneath
That old oak canopy
Presented as a volunteer
On that creek bank south of town
One hundred yards from our…

HAPPY
Happy is the anvil as the hammer strikes the blade
A fleeting spark that fades out as the memory is made
Happy is the spark when the hammer strikes the steel
Before the spit has sizzled into a vapor trail
And happy is the planner…

Sounds like a trip across Arizona to me. On a Harley. Love of your life on the buddy seat. Arms around you. Wind blowing. Hair flying. Center line markers clicking by. Lost in the motion.
For the grandchildren, when I get some!
Moonbee started life as a doodle, then he was turned into a little story, then a song!
This is Part 1 of the series - I have no idea how many there will be in total!
Enjoy! xox

While I was going through my old stuff I found this forgotten tune. I think it was the first or second collab I've ever done with Billy Playle. We met at a long gone collaboration site called OMF (OpenMusicFactory, run by Alessandro da Lisca…
"fALLingG" is oPen cOncePt's newest original track filled with captivating beats & vocal layers that reel you in & keep you groovin'. The entire song was created using ONLY vocals & beatbox.
Enjoy our latest journey - fALLinG!
My recent fascination / obsession with the Devoto-era Buzzcocks is over. Here's an early Magazine song.
Was going to be done unplugged style - the guitar parts were originally guide parts to be replaced with acoustic parts. I got to like them…

These flakes are light and funny, they whirl and sparkle***
~snowflakes~
Ooohh, good one.
Wow, you've been busy. I really like this track, made me smile.
I liked this as much as Suzy Woozy , an excellent idea , and really well done
Nice festive song , great lyric , love the vox
good driving beat, James, powerful lyrics.
Pared down to the bone. Really nice.
Unusual to hear electric guitar from you. Love the vocal and the unaccompanied one at the end.
Very cool!
Nice one mate really enjoyed it.
No, it "IS"!
Hey, this really catchy!
Only if you give it all away first apparently! Great song and wonderful music.

Actually, it's more like Toy Matinee. Kevin Gilbert was one of my favorites.
Sounds like Las Angeles to me. Steely Dan. Clean.
Sounds like a trip across Arizona to me. On a Harley. Love of your life on the buddy seat. Arms around you. Wind blowing. Hair flying. Center line markers clicking by. Lost in the motion.
This really sets the ideas lose in my mind. Love the bass tempo setter...
It's like light reflected in falling water...very nice and soothing.
Love the voices. Is that Lady Jane singing ythe lead?
Nice.
Very nice. Like the story and the harmonies. This is something that could get you invited to schools to share with the kids.
Beautiful...
Will be fine for your children too. Very sweet. Also, nice to hear your talking voice.
Cool song. Really like the bass groove.
Very nice. Fine vocal.
Cool.
Really dig this.
Like this very much. Can hear many voices added to it. Build with choir and drums and strings.
Nice song. Very lonely sound. What's that that sounds like an auto harp? Very clean guitar sound. Crystal clear production.
Andrew, are you on facebook? My email address is Jamesmichaeltaylor@jamesmichaeltaylor.com I have posted your Can't Imagine song on my Facebook page.
Like this. Sounds like a storm brewing in wind chimes.
Very pensive. Peaceful. Soothing with a touch of sadness. Like it a lot.
Like the subtle voices...
