HALF AS MUCH AS MY WIFE - by Jeff Prince
I drink Jim Beam and water
I drink much more than I otter
Whiskey flows thru me each day of my life
But I drink half as much as my wife
She drinks more than George Jones

SEASONS

Teenaged lovers under cover.

Train passing by. Wind howlin’ strong.

IN MY DREAM by James Michael Taylor
Last night I held your hand
Reached out and touched your hand
I know it's just a dream
I say, "What does that change?"
Today the sun will shine
Because you made it mine

I held…
THE GIRL HERE IN MY HEART by James Michael Taylor

Funny, running into you this way after all these years
You hardly aged a single day except those lines around your eyes when you smile. She laughs as she recalls the girl that she was and the boy who chased her around…

That was great, sir. I wasn't aware that you could tickle the keys that well. The piano suggests the melody so strongly that if you told me the instrumental came before the lyrics I could easily believe it.
I never sing this song the same two times in a row.
The lyric below is pretty close to how I sing it now.
Listening again, this is an awful version of this song...

Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
Brilliant lyrics! I love this track! Super performance!
Ha, love the lyrics. A nice bit of fun. Cool guitar going on too.
Pretty song. I like the gentle music with the firm percussion, it works really well.
This is a great song. Good strong vocals.
A beautiful love song JM, most tenderly sung. The country music is perfect.
It's really difficult to talk on a track, I have done it once. This is very well done.
Jeff's voice reminds me of Jeff Lynne. (That's good). Nice and perky guitar work.
Sounds like a thumping good jam! Great vocals! It grows on ya!
Pitch this to N.Young and Crazy horse. Perfect fit. Lovely, the freedom here!
Reminds me of one of those sparklers on the 4th of July. Good One James!
Nice! I'm digging the raw edge to this one, especially that guitar stuff at around 3 minutes.
:)
do they still line dance out that way.
Ah good for True! Why Mr Taylor, I am quite stirred. Really digging the atmosphere. Definitely native american influences.
Hey JMT your experimental side is showing! I'm diggin it!
Ah yes now I get it.
Can't hear it, JM.
ooooooooooo*oooo() oooo* &&&&! oo.?
I'll say it again !!! Damn good song.. I'll be back ...
Damn good song .... I'll be back..

Good to hear the gang...after so long.
So, bright and clear...and, here in Cowtown, chilly. Good hearing your voice again.
Cheri Chandler James Michael Taylor that's so very sadly moving. A beautiful heart like yours to have remained locked away for so many years....
