Maybe Kid Rock might could record it.

I like the bass playing with the picking.

This one got my attention. I especially like the line about the yellow M&Ms. I'm not sure if an award or therapy is the appropriate response. Maybe that 's why it got my attention. Now I'm pressing play again, so, here we go . . . . even better the second time. *You have originality in spades here my friend !!!*

I,v been across that bridge at sun set ,spectacular .

You got me laughing out loud this morning James! Nothing like a good bus trip song to bring out the gritty side of life.

This reminds me just a tiny bit of Neil Young, at least some of it. Regardless, It's awesome

Bus is still the best way to get the full American tour. This has a nice Strawbs flavor.

:-) Great harmonies, nice one

Got me off my horse for a bit of a jig....

Goodun. Kinda like the Byrds in their country phase.

Love it. Great sounding guitars... and those vocals... classy

Yee Ha! x

Great song...love those guitars..

A fun one James,

Ah, you made it then! Sounding really fab! Bethan

I stopped by for another listen this morning. Good song!

Great tune!

Like it James. Like the chordage, and background harmonies.

"This old house is a raincoat I put on" LOVE IT LeAnne M Christian

That was beautifully written and played. I mustn't forget to say that it's beautifully narrated in your song. I was there! Bravo! P.S. I know where your namesake got his style. - George Garner

Absolutly love the wind whistling the cows mooing & the Dixie Chicks back up singers. Never heard this one, a real fun song. Robert Hayden

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.

Roland Brown 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”.

Lazarus Knight A powerful line - "It’s the distance from the bulb. It’s not the fading of the light."

David Young 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!

I like it. It's a bit genius but it does prove that you write songs that don't always make you cry. Tony Desmuke

you are a great Songwriter my friend, lost my wife of 10 years little over a year ago So it touches home, done its job... Mr Jones

Bill Jones Hey James' Little long but guess you had nothing but Time...lol' Not bad~Not bad at all. Songwriter, myself I really Listen for the stories that make up an Artist, and his music...

Good work and good works to you! - Norm Ballinger

Love it - Elizabeth Smith

Roberta Hargrove This is beautiful!!! I

Lazarus Knight 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.
