Cool little song. You have a nice voice.

Nice James! Sweet vocals, very short. Will you expand this into a longer song?

Really inspiring as always. Sweet rain indeed!

Lovely to hear your voice for the first time. Poignant. <3

One of your best, Jim. The melody is beautiful, and the lyrics evoke a melancholy feeling of comfort in me. I'm so glad for you that you got some recognition for it in its use in The Vanishing.

beautiful song james !

Short 'n sweet

Definitely one of my most favorite songs of all time. Guess I identify with it. Yes, I do. From Joseph.

A beautiful love story. This is one of my favorite songs from you. Touches my heart. Thanks ...

Ed

I like the way the tinkly sound creates a sense of lightheartedness to a message that could be gloomy. It seems to convey an attitude of happiness overcoming adversity. Sounds good!

i just love short songs.

Great melody

How do you do that, coming up with one great tune after the other?

Brilliant!

Very Poignant yet hopeful. The essence of poetry. Very nice. Bruce from Wisconsin

High art...magnificent....mellow and to the core of thought and heart...a master working at his best....the efforts it takes to reach this place are extreme ....not for the faint hearted to attempt such a creation....thank you James....Regards from the Irish ....Matt

“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?*” ............ 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.

Wow! That's a powerful song! Good lyrics too.

James, love this! Neil Young sound to it, and great, funny lyrics.

David Young Wow! Beautiful song! One of your best.

Leslie Young Evocative song.

John R. Thielges I think you bring poetry to grief; in an unique way. "Help" and hickory sticks. Thank you.

Raechel Frice James Michael Taylor the story telling aspect of your songs/lyrics remind me of John Denver. This is meant as a compliment.

Paul Smith James Michael Taylor I freaking love your music.

Randy Brown I think everyone was hesitant to encourage the final solution. I love the melody and the sadness of the lyrics.

Dene Colwill You are truly one of the greatest song writers of this decade. Right there with Paul Simon and Gordon Lightfoot in my opinion. All I can say off that sadness and anger is still strong pray to God for peace as only he holds the way to you being able to let b it go. You can't change other people or events that have happened, but you can learn to forgive and change how YOU react to them. If you ever feel nobody cares or will listen, call me. I'll find time and make the time to meet with you or listen over the phone. Don't let depression or anger beat you down for too long old friend. Like Reply2h Active James Michael Taylor I write songs to explain my situation to myself. Considering it all I might just be the happiest person I know.

Lazarus Knight Sometimes you post a song with a link that brings up an album. I don't always listen to the full album because of the rush of life. But I'm trying to remember one of the very recent ones ... I think it (the song)_ was called "Sometime". It is so beautifully poetic and the feeling is passed along so gracefully. It is truly an expression of sweet sorrow, or more accurately, a sweet expression of the numbing pain of loss. It is the thing that my story songs just don't quite do. Lazarus Knight

Brian Gagnon I fought this feeling by staying angry. 30+ years later, I'm still angry.

Tim Tandy The mood of this song reminds me of John Denver's "Perhaps Love." He explained that he wrote it when he was no longer in a relationship but that, while there was sorrow and pain, there was also the beautiful memory of love to see him through. You've captured the bittersweetness -so different from melancholy - of the best haiku poems.

Tim Tandy Whew.............

Haunting. A different take on driving a dark desert highway, cool wind in your hair....Tim Tandy

Jere Reiser Beautiful and Haunting. It is not we, who summon ghosts from the past. Rather it is we who haunt our past. It's like going back to the present. In some instances, I suffer from being the perpetrator and can't avoid picking at the scab. But that's just me.

Ken Gaines Well, my friend, I'm glad you haven't ridden that bullet yet. Meanwhile, I miss swapping songs with you.

I dig it - Raechel Frice

David Young Very sad song but your lyrics are wonderfully written, as always. You are a musical treasure!

Kat Angel Heartfelt and beautiful.

Leslie Young Sad song.

This sounds like more verses to Hey, Regina...

What a sweet song. That guitar figure really catches the time...
