Epic tune. Love the vocal harmony.

Smilin all the way thru.

A beauty!

A good-un James.nicely done

Audience demands a country album.. Great song James/Bill

Wow! She must be special! Lovely tender song. Surprising and effective chord change in the middle. I think you got back a bit early! Lovely melody James! Bethan

Sweet, sweet song, beautiful lyrics.

I feel like I was there with you. I like the modulation when you were in the rut. So . . . . Was it Worth the trip?

Ooo, er! Cool intro, I thought! Instrumental with groovy vocal backing. Different James. Like it a lot! Bethan

awesome

Fun and cool

You cool Dude! Bethan

Love the harmonies and the guitar in the middle. And the use of the word "thot"!

as near perfect as it comes James.add some fiddle and you'll have a hit.

I'm glad you're continuing to rage against these stupid endless wars our government keeps sending our children off to fight.

Jag veld it mucker....

Ah Bill, now you have your own copy and very nice it is too. I hope you have an enjoyable visit. Lovely relaxed playing James. Bethan

nice

Actually the breakdown is a piano, a synth-piano, music box, 2 guits, drums and an organ.

Experimenting's always fun! And a good way to broaden our vision.

I hear ya, Buddy... but that guitar has incredible presence. (pyropool@earthlink.net)

"Plays out like a movie for me. Nice storytelling 👌" Vicki Me...Yes, but does the autism show? Vicki...Not necessarily. But the talent for music and creative expression coupled with the line voice of the narrator yearning to connect with others is pretty tell-tale imho It’s a recurrent theme. Even your social justice stance of anti-war. The outsider. The outlier. High intelligence and love of literature… Enter Vicki-Lee Peaceful nature Enter Vicki-Lee Vicki-Lee Cayrouse Not many other aspies have a handle on this too good. It would come down to sensory issues really. But if it’s not autism (Asperger’s syndrome) it’s probably something neurodivergent. And that could be ADHD (not always hyperactive presentation but more a neurology and the way you think) or bipolar (creatives) or something like sound synesthesia or dyslexia etc

If you don’t have Asperger’s syndrome or what is now known in the US as Autism Level 1 — I’ll eat my hat. It’s not to alarm or upset you, I just think we’re so like minded and you show so many traits. Your musical gift would then make you what’s called ‘twice exceptional.’ Look into it and see if it ‘vibes.’ Melbourne Vicki

Touching song...beautifully done. Thank you for listening to my songs.

Rafi Arkin said, "Great story and song. I didn’t listen to it all as I’m trying to get through more songs on the list, but what I did hear I liked and enjoyed reading the rest of the lyrics too. Thought some of the verse melody notes were a little obvious and I could see them being stretched slightly but that shows I was into it. Wish I could write song stories like that!"

Rosemarie Kempton said, "This is a song I could happily listen to over and over again. Great music and lyrics!"

"Powerful song." Rose Kempton

What an interesting combining of such desperate genres...

Love what happens @ 1:17.

You really capture late 60s here. Especially the keys...

ROCK & ROLL!!! Sooo clean!

Sparce and beautiful.

Some beautiful "awkward tinkering..."

Great track...and, you know it's true.

"This is wonderful. You are a chanteur." Alicia Gradson

Tony Cherry How did you get that voicing on this track? Keyboard?

Susannah Garza "Lovely"

"Beautiful song..." Bruce Balmer

Jeremy Menson - Guitar addicts "...brother I love this!"

Five songs in.... I remember listening to Food In My Belly already. So far I'm loving the harmonies. Fireflies. Cracked up listening to Dishes. Sure can relate. Nuno
