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.

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... :)

Beautiful.....

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

"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! Cheers Bethan

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!

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.

Ooooooo! Gorgeous.

Wonderful song!

Kat Angel PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the song, love you singing it just to me (in my imagination)

Bruce Balmer Beautiful.

Shirley Crawford Hello…old friend. This one hits me in the heart. When we moved here to NM back in June… we left behind in the house, our old couch that we’d used for 22 years. It had been my parents before that. It was probably close to 40 yrs old. And yes, it made into a bed.

Candy Davis Beautiful, poignant memory song. I could just picture that old couch and what it meant to you.

Perrin Gardner Beautiful song, James Michael Taylor!

Carolyn Wade Sending love ❤️. Love it and remember the memories of us. Button your shirt.(Gladys Burcham).

Becky Byrd Spicer Wiping a tear for all the relics I have kept, and those discarded.

Scarlett Maneikis So beautiful, n heart felt. I love it.

Doreen Peri Wonderful. Thank you for sharing this!

Daniel Payne This one hits. Heavy reflections on all the stuff that served me faithfully, and all the leaving was my doing. To reward all that loyalty, I do to my stuff what I always hate other people to do to me.

...as Buddy holly said, "RAVE ON!"

...really gets the feeling of that path!

I don't understand being criticized for a track being TOO LOUD. Doesn't everybody have a "volume" knob?

That is fun...

How old is that song? Was rhatvwritten from a personal stance if I may? LeAnna LeAnna M Christian Overall good song; performance and production JMT - I wrote/recorded this in 2011. Just looking at the poor man's perspective, (which I have knowledge of) noticing no matter how much he prays he's still poor. "Must be the wrong prayer."

The heart can hold a lot of things: the sunshine and the flowers The chill that springs the falling leaves. Winter's darkest hours The rains that quench the thirsty earth. The buds that sprout and bloom Sometimes it tries to hold too much and there isn't enough room Sometimes it tries to hold too much The heart can hold a multitude. Family and Friends. There are things that life will give and things it only lends A wife becomes a mother, a son becomes a man There are things the heart can't hold And still it thinks it can There are things the heart can't hold The holdings of the bank are cold, but holding hands are warm The holdings of the mind are thoughts that in the moment form The hands that hold the tools that build the brushes for our art None are as enduring as the holdings of the heart The holdings of the heart are self-renewing On holdings of the heart, high interest, paid Holdings sometimes best be liquidated, yet we stay The heart can hold the music. The voices of the Time. The heart collects the little things. The pennies and the dimes The heart can try to measure the stature of a dream Pounding like the waters on the stones that block the streams Pounding like the waters The holdings of the bank are cold, but holding hands are warm The holdings of the mind are thoughts that in the moment form The hands that hold the tools that build the brushes for our art None are as enduring as the holdings of the heart None are self-renewing like the holdings of the heart

Well, Rosie's like a lot of folks She's just trying to stay afloat But she's got a broken boat She's a going down And Rosie's got her problems, friends She just tries to do her best Who's gonna do the rest She's a going down If god had longer arms, you know He'd reach on down to Rosie Reach on down to Rosie Reach on down (2) Etc...

This came out of a story in the Star Telegram about a guy that lived under one of the bridges near Trinity Park. I was angry at a reporter who did a story about him and it got him removed.
