Mess? I hear no mess here. I hear a good time.

Excellent lyrics, clearly delivered at breakneck speed. Superb! This album is really great, the tracks are well written, performed and it's clear a lot of fun was had putting it together. A jolly good listen.

Now, you are one cool dude! I love everything about this track, it's my favourite on the cd!

Hang on James, I'm on my way! ;)

Oh, I would have liked to be on the backing vocals here. It reminds me of some 50's stuff where the backing was girlies repeating the end of the previous lines. Fun track!

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!

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.
