Arg! My speakers are not speaking and I'm not sure why. Unable to listen to the new version of CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT. When it is translated to Hindi I'll make another effort to figure out what is wrong with the speakers. Keren

reminds me of a song being played on a turntable in a old hotel during a horror movie scene, in a good way that is. If you can take that as a compliment :)

At six p'clock the windmill throws it's shadow on the grave
The cattle chew their cud and lowly low above the one we didn't save
The broken body buried there beneath the sod we carried there that day
And tho we hold each…

Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend.

That was beautifully written and played. I mustn't forget to say that it's beautifully narrated in your song. I was there!
Bravo!

Crying is the expression of our deepest emotions, I think. We cry when we are sad, we cry when we are deeply moved, and we cry when we are overcome with happiness. “He Made People Feel”.
Written one morning at OLD Number NINE weekend with Eliza Gilkyson.

The lyrics of this song,
as they pertain to plot,
are my exact memory of the event.

David Young
I have always felt an emotional connection to your songs. “Help” was your song that first caught my attention then “Hickory Stix” and “Lisa Makes Appointments.” You have such a great talent for introducing characters and describing situations. You do it with simple but perfect lyrics and wonderful tunes. I never get tired of crying along with you!
Refuge into the imagination:
Is it crazy?
Is it survival?
Is desire to survive crazy?

That was great, sir. I wasn't aware that you could tickle the keys that well. The piano suggests the melody so strongly that if you told me the instrumental came before the lyrics I could easily believe it.

Nicely done mate sounds like a very cool bar.
First Class James.
Wow - Killer vocal melody and awesome harmonies. I frickin' love it!
Wonderful, honest vocal. I always admire your lyrics anyway, but this is emotionally painful too. So, beautiful!
Masterful writing and playing and I can hear the emotion.
Nice one mate.
Thanks James. What a beautiful song--We're going to learn it if only for our own edification!. Best, Robert and Sarah Aberg
Ha ha, it's like hearing it for the first time each different track, except that now I can sing along. This is a lovely version.
Funny, sounds just like you! Lovely track1
Not creepy crawley at all, but cute!
Ah, a plea from the heart. Very tender JM.
Great tune.
