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

Lately people tell me they cry when I sing THE COUCH and YOUR VOICE. Last night, at dinner with True, he said GRAMMA'S SHAMPOO is like a stab in his heart. Maybe my grave stone will say:HIS SONGS MADE PEOPLE CRY.

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.

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!

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.
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
I'll give it a good yee-haw.
Heck, so I just went to iTunes and bought the album.
Thanks for pointing me to this link! This song grabbed me the first time I heard it and hasn't let go.
Thought provoking!
What a beautiful song. Your vocal harmonies are stunning!
Great tune....a nice unpredictable quality too it
Thanks for the kind words about my drum sounds... yeah, I guessed that the vocals on this one were all you - even more impressive :-)
Stunning vocals. Your choral arrangement is masterful. I'm envious of anyone who can sing this beautifully!
Beautiful. Just beautiful!
That was beautiful! Your brother, John Wayne forwarded this to me. I really appreciate your talent!
LOVE IT I get the feeling this isn't the first version of this that I've heard? Have you posted a different version before?
Rain must fall in everyone.
This is multilayered and feels like all across the universe movie if that makes sense. I feel the way I feel watching that movie. Nice
A song for a revolution
Cute and chirpy!
I wasn't expecting the change towards the end. Works very well.
A marvellous opening line. Grabs the attention. Lovely song.
Wonderful lyric!
Love the unfolding dimensions with the ageing of Layla. What a great track James.
I like it also. The lyrics are great. I am sort of a ballad girl. Sweet rain is nice.
