ROCKS - James Michael Taylor
How many times have you
heard someone say,
"This is gonna last forever"
How many times have you
scratched your head
and said a silent, "Never."
There's a rock in Yosemite
that might just stand the test
Rocks…

400 BULLETS
400 guns. 400 bullets.
400 babies in the grave.
You got your New Pearl Harbor
Now it’s time for a new Passover.

RAGE a song by Jeff Prince
Smoke curls 'round her finger tips and rises toward the light
She crumbles up another pack and curses at the night
And that god-damned clock, Tik tok, tik tok, mocks her mournful face
From kitchen wall to kitchen…

HONEY CHILD
I see your eyes inquiring, without a word
Will I stick around or fly like a bird
Maybe I’ll stay a while
Silhouettes colliding. Luminescent sparks
Crazy hoofbeats pounding. Trailblazing hearts
We’ll ride in style, this winding…
Facebook is a horrible thing. The real world keeps intruding into the perfectly peaceful virtual world.

Real men keep butting' in. They've done it again. Real men
No one seems to…

CEDRICH/DRUNKEN INDIAN

He gave me 2 rings. Silver with turquoise insets. That was 1974. We were moving from Oregon to Texas in an old Dodge school bus. Towing the Chevy Van behind it. Unhitched the van…
A GOOD CRY
A song by Rick Babb
and James Michael Taylor
Why don't you cry?
I know you need to
A tear was meant to ease the pain
A flood could come
and it will wash you
So don't you try to hold it back
A good cry can't be bad…
This is a song about losing a friend. It was written after I attended her funeral. I am the type of artist given to bouts of self-examination, and this song is a result of one of those bouts.
ER
I'm a big big girl
In a big big world
It's not a big big thing if u leave me
But I do do feel
That I do do will
Miss u much
Miss u much
I can see the first leafs falling
It's all yellow and nice
It's so very cold outside
Like the way…
The big game dev company that made final Fantasy also made this beautiful number. THe music composed by Yasunori Mitsuda was at its best. I feel like I couldn't be any closer to the edge of my seat otherwise.
So after a few weaks of working…
Taking a lie as truth, taking useless things as large and grand, I unwittingly contributed to the decrease of the common spirit. How to turn back? It seemed no way ...

People are dying every day in the street
People are dying every day

Just for being people in the street
Peace, when's it coming, coming for the people in the street
Peace, you can sing it

Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…
Wizard...like your description of the song CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT. I wouldn't tell that to the lady that sang it but I find it charming and your comment apt.
This is a Ralph Mctell song , a very underated British singer / songwriter , probably famous for one song , The Streets of London , but in fact wrote many great songs , he wrote this while working on a building site before he was signed by a record…
This was my very first attempt at recording , done on two tracks , me picking and vox , AK rhythm , then me adding a harmony vocal , a bit basic but a Traffic song i've allways loved
Your mics are doing what they need to do: clear vocal and all words understandable. Good clean rendering of your song. I like your voice and your song. Heart science isn't rocket science.
Gotta be some Dylan in your background. Reminds me of some of the songs on his John Wesley Hardin album.
Thanks for your comment on I WONDER. I have redone it since you listened to it. I have to post things and listen to them to find out what I need to do the finish them. j mt
the sheriff's back in town
that o' hired hand of dread
cleanin' up the channels
knockin' down the webs
his lights, they are a flashin'
stopped me in my tracks alone
his hand on rein and bridle says
this freedom's gotta go
he said it…

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.
That previous comment was mine; forgot to log in before posting, sorry for that.
the string seection is made of various single-note wave files and then layered together.
Excellent tune! Fav'd and DL'd And no, unfortunately they're no real violins

Great Poetry James!

Like that agressive acoustic riff.
Sweet ballad.
Comments made by James Michael Taylor
Someone should do an animation to go with this...it is very evocative. So bright and airy.
Well said.
Yeah, it's about staying sane and trying to live forever but I repeat myself.
Touching.
Really a grabber. Like it!
Very pensive. A sad urgency.
I've been listening to your songs for several hours. The way you do them is very restful. Nice voices and very peaceful sounds.
"Looking in her eyes is like looking in a mirror..." cool line.
I like this every time I listen to it and I listen to it about once a week.
I can see myself walking down a dirt road just enjoying the wildflowers and dodging grasshoppers as I hum this one to myself.
I'd like to see the video to this one.
Cool. You got me to singing along.
Really like the bass sound. The phasie feel.
Wizard...like your description of the song CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT. I wouldn't tell that to the lady that sang it but I find it charming and your comment apt.
Immediately drawn by the vocal sound on this. So full and resonant. Still can understand the lyric. Like the first person thing you do.
You've got your machinery working well. Like your version of this old song.
Your mics are doing what they need to do: clear vocal and all words understandable. Good clean rendering of your song. I like your voice and your song. Heart science isn't rocket science.
