The Inappropriate Question
G C/Gbass
She said, “I can see that you’re hurting.
And I can see that you are wearing a ring.
Perhaps an inappropriate question,
but I’d like to ask you something.
Soon I will be a grand mother
I have a husband…

During the Iraq war there was a traveling exhibit: On a mall they would line up pairs of boots. One pair for each American soldier killed in Iraq.

I like this track, with all the ideas flowing through it... Background vox are beautiful and spooky, simultaneously! My one suggestion would be to take the lead vocals down some, as they stand out too far in fron t of the mix, in my opinion... :)
The banjo, bass and guitar on this song
was played by Michael Jeffrey. This is one song off the record we did together back in 1975/6 on his 4 track machine. Michael and Barbara Anne Taylor sing harmony.

"Love is just a pretty face" a line full of meaning, speaks volumes.
I like the more tender vocal. Ha, now you'll say you didn't change that!
Such a great song!

Yep, I could hear Neil Young and Queen, but also early David Bowie and Mott the Hoople - all of which (with the exception of Neil Young) form the very foundations of my record collection.
I'm a complete sucker for this song.
It's not just gorgeous. It's utterly, utterly, wonderful.
It says everything about "love" that folks like me (all my life I've been one of those dangerous "in love with being in love" people) need and want to hear.
It makes grown men cry (quite literally here at the moment).
I can't think what else to say - I SO wish I'd written this.
Thankyou.
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.

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

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.

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

Lovely swaying rhythm...very cool track, JMT.
There's something about this that really grabs me... truly inventive idea for a song. Yep, it really is all the same, isn't it?
Oh, yeah this wonderful. Really well pitched, could've been so over-sentimental but it's not. Love it.
Outstanding...
Grabs the attention from the off. Wonderful vocal harmonies. I like the alternating narrating and singing and the music is very pretty.
Begs to be incorporated in a rock opera.
Brilliant. "How do we know that a promise is anything more than a wish..." Woo This lonely little song needs a lot more attention.

Beautiful.....
Ooo, I found this cos someone favourited it (thanks B!) It's gorgeous :)

good thoughts and nifty tune
Fabulous vox James. Love your style man.
Cool tune JMT - Love that lead guitar. Has an Ozark Mountain Daredevils quality to it.
Excellent track mate.
Yep, I could hear Neil Young and Queen, but also early David Bowie and Mott the Hoople - all of which (with the exception of Neil Young) form the very foundations of my record collection. I'm a complete sucker for this song.
This is like Neil Young getting together with Queen and doing a ballad. Very cool arrangement!

Ooooooo! Gorgeous.
Wonderful song!

Welcome to Alonetone. jmt
This one too. I thot it was the continuation of SEE MOLLY PLAY.'
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.
