I NEVER DREAM
I never dream of building bridges. I never dream I’ll build a dam
I never dreamed of a cathedral for the mighty God, I Am
I never dreamed of founding clinics or make donations to the cause
I don’t see my name on statues and…

SNOW MAN
I'll tell you right now
I don't cry
You might mistake some sweat
for a teardrop in my eye
But, I don't cry
In spite of what you might be thinking
I don't get tired of humble pie
(That's not a tear drop in my eye)
And don…
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…
Refuge into the imagination:
Is it crazy?
Is it survival?
Is desire to survive crazy?

This audio is missing. I will have to find it in the archives or re-record it some day…

Why are they burning down my house? My neighbor house..."

I had forgotten how painful I find…
I had forgotten how painful I find this recording... I had forgotten how painful I found that time of our country's history... that time of my life... (and I was not one of those who "Had To Go"... or should I say, I was not one of those men... one of those boys... who had to make that "choice." I was one of the... "fortunate ones.")
This song is just what it is and says what it says.
It's where I am and where my hopes lie. It all just happens to fit into a song...

IF IT MAKES YOU HAPPY

Get outta my way, I'm headin' on down this road
I'm on my way but I got no place to go
I've paid my dues. I just want my share
I've got the sun in my eyes
and the wind in my hair
But I got nobody
I've got no one to run to
No one to see…

I believe Lula must be the lady on the cover of PAPER BOATS! Lula is why many older single men fear all those dating sites! Nightmares are born when they imagine what else Lula might wiggle... besides her ears!
My motto is INWARD THRU THE FOG. One day about a month ago, Laura 'Taylor' Whitfield told me I should, "write that song." Thinking back on a fog-bound night in California, I wrote it. Norman Pilcher, a friend from Texas, and I were headed north…
THE WALK
I drove 400 miles that night
East of Dallas to Abilene
And the hopes that I held in my headlights
Were hopes like I'd never seen
She called me from work that afternoon
She said she'd be off about 2 AM
Said it would be nice…
They discovered a planet that has no star
Maybe they'll let me name it whoever they are
I know all about a planet without a star
Oh, please let me name it.
I know all about it.
A planet. No orbit. Just lost out in space
No hope or habit…
I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
Geas poured some magic sauce on this one and opened up the song to a new level .....Thanks Geas
WHY
the innocence of a lie
the reason behind the why
the sigh of regret
at that moment of death
why
why
oh why
while were swimming in…
I really like this. I just wish you would mix your voice out a bit or include your lyrics. I want to know every word you are saying. It sounds so interesting.
This is an original piece of music I created using Band in a Box. Created chord progressions, recorded all wav files into Audacity and here it is. Hope you like it. Russell T.

There was a report recently from Credit Suisse that nearly half the world's wealth is in the hands of 1% of the population, and the wealth shared by the poorest 3.5bn is about the same as that shared by the richest 85 people. And it also said…

This ne has been floating around the files for a while, now. Still not sure if this is a re-upload or if its elements have been so sampled into other projects that familiarity has bred disconnect. In either case, Enjoy!!!

I wonder how this very good song would sound now, if recorded with the more "mature" voice that 10 years has given JMT? Good song, VERY good album! I always thought this album was underappreciated... but... that is true for the whole discography of JMT!
I love this one!
Well done!
Nice song with a well told story.
This is a good song!
This is a beautiful, sad song. Was it from a personal experience you had>
this is so touching...
I had forgotten how painful I find this recording... I had forgotten how painful I found that time of our country's history... that time of my life... (and I was not one of those who "Had To Go"... or should I say, I was not one of those men... one of those boys... who had to make that "choice." I was one of the... "fortunate ones.")

Thank you! ❤️

I like the potential for this song, JMT! Especially how you start it off! You seemed relaxed and comfortable with it.
I believe Lula must be the lady on the cover of PAPER BOATS! Lula is why many older single men fear all those dating sites! Nightmares are born when they imagine what else Lula might wiggle... besides her ears!
Ouch ....I liked the story song appeal
I love this song.
I can dig it. Cool song.
i miss u
Cool little song. You have a nice voice.
Nice James! Sweet vocals, very short. Will you expand this into a longer song?
Comments made by James Michael Taylor
I will miss his very specific and kind comments.
Wish you would tell more about who you are and about this song. So beautiful.
Sooooo pretty.
ATTITUDE! Yes!
Soooo gritty. Like listening thru the wall to the club next door. Just before the whole place explodes!
Love all the weird sounds you are using...
I really like this. I just wish you would mix your voice out a bit or include your lyrics. I want to know every word you are saying. It sounds so interesting.
great melody
Happy jazz
I can see a couple dancing in the smoky little room...
Interesting bass track.
Smooth and cozy. All it needs is the tinkle of wine glasses and quiet conversation...
This really catches the smokey little jazz club sandwich shop atmosphere.
Very cool too...
Good point
Spacy and hypnotic.
Such sad realization...well said/sung.
This ought to get everyone out on the dance floor. Can't sit still...
The keys really swing.
Zappa meets James Brown.
