I love the backing vocals too!

Great song for walking down the isle.

Damn she burned the biscuits again. and now i'm getting the sniffles.

Lovely song James. Your guitar sounds so plaintive.

Great track mate very well done.

Powerful.

Aw. Lovely piano, and lyrics.

Simple and beautiful. Simply beautiful. :) Regards, Steffen

Wonderful and melancholic - and I think everybody can relate to this superb lyric. Regards, Steffen

I like the way you all "mess" around..

I don't remember ever hearing a song of yours so upbeat. I mean it seems like your totally revitalized, i like it good job on content and music. such fresh inspiration makes me think your in love again.

Here is Kavin's post in the alonetone forum: http://alonetone.com/forums/togethertone/topics/vote-for-jmt That's great news about getting a song in the movie! Sounds like we have a celebrity in our midst.

How are you doing with the Texas Songwriter contest. I found Kavin's comment on the forum. I think that is pretty neat James! I hope you win!

Great performance JM. There must be some wealthy people who died for their country, surely!

Not quite what I had expected from the title. This song sounds like a Native American hymn. Great vocal arrangement!

And again you sound like Harry Chapin. And your songs are no less versatile. You are very prolific. Regards, Steffen

I can say with a clean consience that I don't watch any soaps - because I never watch tv. :) I don't know "House", but I'm sure my mother would love it. :) Nice song, James! About time to listen to some of your recently posted songs. If only there were more hours in a day ... Regards, Steffen

Thought provoking. It gives me a sick feeling when I think about how we are all being manipulated.

I just listened again...It is a very good song, done just right.

SHARED this one on my facebook page.

"Fireflies." has a stellar intro, and then you woot he listener in with your crooning and compelling vocals. I have always loved the topic of fireflies and your hook about chsing fireflies in the htickets of two hearts is Phenomenal. Lots of nostalgia in this one, especiually for the girl next door who played a game with me, a kiss for every firefly i caught for her. But man those bugs were elusive as hell. But when I got a few, I was enthralled by her gentle thank you on my lips. Matthew Blowers III

Now "Skinny Girls.' is a riotus collection of just plain fun and some great humor, I was so dissappointed when the track just cut out. But then I unbderstood you were giving folks just a taste. I was actually starting to visualize all the descriptive bean pole girls you were listing. A great bar song for sure, and I can see all the slightly inebriated guys rethinking and checking out all the skinny girls nursing their beers. LOL Matthew Blowers III

Matthew F. Blowers III I am really liking your song on California, I have a special love for that state. You captured all the reaons I miss it, with your superb storytelling in lyrics and with the smooth harmonies and extremely well played music. It has a catchy beat, and I listened to the very last note.

Very catchy! Too short, maybe. Gotta listen twice.

So today, for some reason I decided to read the words first.. Just the words. And found it an absolutely beautiful experience. The metaphors you use to describe great and cosmic plans and intentions of great societal achievement, contrasted with the lines that begin with, "BUT I dreamed we met for breakfast".... (the switch and the contrast is very powerful) what a tiny, common human thing: meeting over the sharing of food,. Then followed by, "I dreamed I held your hand"... human touch/connection, as though those two simple things are worth more than all the highest achievements of worldly fame, and material ladders climbed! Which they are. They so are. The rest of the lyrics continue to develop & express that idea beautifully. Then I listened to the sing, and although it is good as a song, For me, the words in themselves stand strong and impactful w/o anything else. Not to contrast them and say one is "better" than the other. Just that sometimes I see lyrics that stand alone, And just saying, these words do that very well. Gwyn Henry

This is cool. It gives me ideas.

WoW! Knocks me out. Really sizzles.

Makes me want to find a partner and do a little dance...very nice.

You had me at, "If I back off and shut my mouth..." Know exactly where you are. So afraid the answer is, "No."

Sounds like a 50s Buddy Holly era song. Very sweet sentiment. And, yes, I can dance to it.

Great characterization. Great kick drum sound.

WoW! Rock me, dude! Love the imagery.

Kim Triolo Feil James Michael Taylor that's a fantastic story and a very lovely song

Yes! A MONKEES song, for sure.

Interesting sounds. Cool chord shifts.

Aaah, if Love could only be forgotten... Nice.

Like it.

Very nice...

California has a chorus that camouflages the dramatic irony of the verse narrative. If it weren’t for the unusual intro, it’d seem zirconium. Christopher Youngblood

Circle of No Regrets sounds quaint. That’s what makes it hit. Unless you turn your ears on, it’s a boring song, but once you do, it’s hard to take. It’s almost like you’re giving the audience an option. Christopher Youngblood
