This is the original "song".
ANY MORE
It was raining in the parking lot
We ran all the way to the door
That's when you said,
"I love you but I don't need you any more."

Is this a true story? How very sad. I was wondering how I would reply to such a statement, but then I realized you answered that question -- if you're a songwriter, you write a song about it. Even if it's only 35 seconds long. :(

The guest who commented below I must agree with regarding the early to mid '60s feel. and yet again, as the same guest noted, there is that "distinctively Jim Taylor" sound. And finally, again like the guest below, I like it!

"Svetlana" makes me smile. It evokes happy memories of the music of the early to mid-sixties for me. Yet it is quintessentially and distinctively Jim Taylor. Your songs are all so different, yet all bear your distinctive stamp. I like it!

From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes

Again, while not exactly the tone of Neil Young, your execution and delivery is indeed an echo of that very talented Canadian. The sung parts, anyway. Sweet story.

I CAN'T TELL
I can't tell if it's morning or evening
I can't tell night from day

I can't tell if it's…

To turn the soil

At the moment of the rain

Dear Listener, Thank you for your comment. It's a brand new song and still being written. Your comment helps me figure out what needs to be done to make the song understandable.
I read Siddhartha when I was young and tho it promised a beautiful mate it also promised the loss of that beautiful mate and ending life alone. For some reason that frightened me at the time and sure enough, 28 years with my beautiful mate and she walked out...
FEATHERS IN THE WIND is about a high school girlfriend, dead now. But Keren is still alive.
I look forward to hearing your music. j mt
First installment of a record of "experimental" tracks, mostly me doing weird stuff around the house and at some point deciding to record "that". Well, in fact that's how most of my music gets done, but well, you get the point. Don't say I didn…
The first version of this is on Songs of The Heart. This version was written around 9/11 and is a plea for America to hold on to God, not move away from Him.

This is one of the saddest must beautiful songs I have ever heard. Listening to it over and over. A love song to a love that has forsaken you. Yet you cling.Yet you hope. Yet you believe.

This is about Mary, the Mother of God and mother of us all. For those who aren't Catholic, Catholics don't worship Mary, we honor her and pray for her intercession, just as people ask other people to pray for them. Mary brings us to Jesus.
Finally, finished this one. Its been a battle finding time and fending off a few bouts with allergies and colds etc...A very windy winter and early spring season in the desert was one of the worst in many years. Hoping to get to working on some…
Such clean acoustic guitar sound. Like the way it grows/builds...how the sound of the voice fills out. Cool voice and song. Starts to sound like the Beatles at the end.
I wrote this in the early 1990's during Desert Storm and after a conversation with my brother-in-law, Er4ic, t the time who was sent over there to fight.

short and definitely bitter sweet! Good stuff

Sell this to Jimmy Buffett! :)
Great lyrics as usual from you. Great song
Masterful storytelling James. 1st class. Go to the front row.
Very creative James. It usually takes me 2 more songs in March to recuperate from RPM.
Flawless!
Poignant message and lovely harmonies
I think this might just be my favorite JMT song!
well this is a fun upbeat tune, James, I also like tha keys/organ, it werks very well... c):~)

So sad to let it go ....
Mad as a box of frogs....loved it !
Where do you get a drink when your pissing in the sink..... What a great line ....
Again, while not exactly the tone of Neil Young, your execution and delivery is indeed an echo of that very talented Canadian. The sung parts, anyway. Sweet story.
Love the lyrics ....beautifully done ...
You got a hit with this one James my children like it !! And so do I ....
I really dig this.
Congratulations James! I'm way behind this year. You are an inspiration.

Mix this with OSMPTS and I bet it would work.
Reminds me, right ff, of 50's tv music. Those great vocals again.
Love the vocal sound.
very sad...
Paul, PLease tell me the words of this. There are some I can't understand. My email is: jamesmichaeltaylor@jamesmichaeltaylor.com
This is one of the saddest must beautiful songs I have ever heard. Listening to it over and over. A love song to a love that has forsaken you. Yet you cling.Yet you hope. Yet you believe.
...bespeaks such loss of innocence. A real tearjerker because the betrayal seems so unanswerable.
Gorgeous. Lovely.
...another beautiful vocal and melody.
This really rings... Like it.All the energy and brightness and that little dip into darkness. And the cool guitar work at the end. j mt

The link to your web site isn't working for me.
Beautiful. Voice, voices.
This is beautiful.
...really like your story about your childhood at your web page...
Raw and Rockin'...
Beach Boys and Beatles showing thru...always good.
Great groove. Like the voices... .../the little reference to Good Vibrations.
This and djorklandia sound like movie music to me. Grand landscapes and epic travel shots.
