I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE'S GONE Key - G
She's been gone for three years now
Three years since she walked out
Friends and folks I work with
Ask me what it's all about
Tho I can't find an answer
As the days drag on and on
My heart is damn near…
I heard this one today and I think it's one of your more commercially viable songs, it sounds like a classic country song. This is another one I think you should consider playing more on a regular basis.
Belinda Stephens
I think you wrote and produced it well, James. It’s got a beat for line dancing😊
If I may, I dedicate this song to a Republican Pres. Candidate.

Somewhere between my heart and circled letters

James Michael Taylor played this last night at Hermann Sons to close out the night and left us all stunned. He told me he's never played this one in a jam before I told him...well it wasn't repeatable because we've all been missing a great song experience. Request it next time you see him.

Another marijuana and share a friendly toke

Keep it…
This one didn't really get the arrangement or mix is deserved. One more week to go.
Once in a while, I just like to waste my time
I won’t spend every day towing someone’s line
So if you see me and you want to stop and chat
Don’t be discouraged…
Week 52
This is my last song of the week from 2022! I arranged this one for my brother. He wrote the lyrics and basic melody. It's straight-up rockabilly.

Whether what he said was true or not, it was cruel, insensitive slap and a prime example of "truth" best left unspoken. And then there is the great song that you wish you hadn't had to write.

Good song....ever thought about slowing it down adding some bluesy pian
What a great song. I like how you strung together these everyday phrases. Theo
Love this, James. Gwen Harry said it well.
I'm the songwriting king of the jungle around these parts I know because Jeff Prince said, and he's the king of the arts...
Wanda Slusser-Mullens Love it. The lyrics are wonderful recipe for life.
Leslie Young I like it. But it’s sad.

I like it! It has a catchy tune and a mysterious message. I'm curious as to how this song came to be.
