This story is a poem sent to me by Lesley Sawyer from a blog on her MySpace site and I put it to music and am posting it so she can hear it and maybe see if it's alright. We don't know who wrote the poem. If anybody does please tell me. j mt
THE GIRL HERE IN MY HEART
If anybody sees her will you tell her that I love her
She might not remember. Now she loves another
If you ever see her you will recognize her
The girl here in this picture. She's the girl here in my heart
If…
THE GIRL HERE IN MY HEART
If anybody sees her will you tell her that I love her
She might not remember. Now she loves another
If you ever see her you will recognize her
The girl here in this picture. She's the girl here in my heart
If…
I was told that even tho she left me after 28 years it doesn't negate the idea.
There’s a place in my mind where your face had a home
Long before you came into my life
Before you were a known
There’s a note in my song that I knew fit somewhere…
Tesla...maybe the smartest man that ever lived.
TESLA
Who invented remote control? TESLA
Who invented the fluorescent light? TESLA
Who invented the radio? TESLA
And who died alone and forgotten in 1943? TESLA
So, you say now, “Don’t…
Little did I know...
If you left me I wouldn't wanna talk
I'd put your sandals by the curb and I'd take a little walk
I'd buy a roll of paper towels and I'd soak up every tear
Hang it on the clothes line. Just watch them disappear
If…
I never met Jesse,
but I heard her howl in the night,
but I heard her pups yelping for
whiter they yelp for. She was strong
and she was there. And in the Texas
night out on the prairie between
Lillian and Alvarado I could hear them
singing…
We've all met them! Haha. Got a bit of a rocky head on doing this.
"I ain't gonna love her like I said I would, coz my friends were all quite right - she's no good."
A little ditty about a company wanting to build a waste wood incinerator near me.

In splendid honour of her majesty queen elizabeth 2nd, celebrating 60 years of being the queen of england and the commonwealth nations. God bless ya maam.
According to John this lyric was inspired by the weird visions of a former sports reporter who now thinks the people in high political places are actually lizard men from space. :D

Searching for something
I wonder and roam
Hoping the truth
Soon will be shown…
I have a song in the movie THE VANISHING. That movie starred Jeff Bridges and Keefer Southerland. I did all the music in a movie called RED DESERT PENITENTIARY. A film maker in Austin is finishing a short movie with about nine of my songs in it. Another Dallas film makes used me as an actor in a film recently and used a piece of mine as the theme song for that actor. It all adds up...to....something. Except for the Vanishing and Dark Blood there is no money.

Oh, that! I was nominated for Best Texas Music when my music isn't about Texas at all. It's all silly. It's all about the young musicians in town. They have a big blow out at the awards shin dig and everybody has fun but nobody takes it seriously about who is really the best in town.
That movie is called DARK BLOOD, finally to be finished by the director, George Sluizer. The movie was started in 1993 and production ceased when River Phoenix died of an overdose. Now it is being finished with narration filling in the unshot scenes. I suspect it will get a lot of attention because if it being River's last film and the circumstances.

I don't have too many old songs left to upload, so I'm digging into "B" side territory. This is an old song I wrote while at uni, lyrics are pretty naive, but so was i back then.
IMO John sounds like David Essex. :)

It's fun to buy a new toy once in a while. This is the first attempt at using my new Line 6 POD Guitar Effects.
Lyrics:
Here you come, my sweet baby
Don’t know why you drive me crazy
I’m crazy, in love with you
And it’s been a long long…
About someone (who may or may not be myself) who may have smoked a little too much of a particular herb in the past.
As I sit here alone
With my hand on the bong
And I light another match
And I pull another cone
I don’t know where I will…
About someone (who may or may not be myself) who may have smoked a little too much of a particular herb in the past.
As I sit here alone
With my hand on the bong
And I light another match
And I pull another cone
I don’t know where I will…
I thought so little of this song at first I filed it away in a folder on my hard disk called "nogood". About a year later I listened to it again and changed my mind.
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff

Shades of John Prine.
Sweetly done James,

Grrreat delivery! I love your take on this track. It's excellent!
That's a nice traditional country song, really well sung. I liked the music a lot.

Fantastic!
Most beautifully done.
Look, I am trying to work through the mountain on my desk without laughing, but this is such fun.
What a super track! I want to compliment you on your backing vocals.
great production and concept - I'm with Bethan on this.
Especially enjoyed the music on this one. Niiice!
I like that. Yeah, not funny how things turn out!
Well, I have been trying to make a comment on Shoes but it won't let me. Odd! "Shoes" is certainly thought provoking.
Oh this is lovely.
Love the lyrics. I think they get better and better.

LIKE THIS.
Sounds like your version of Helter Skelter...
Real cause for the blues.
Sounds like someone is having fun. Reminds me of when I was a kid and Mom taught me to put wax paper over a comb.
Cool song...

Greg, I don't know about that contest. I DID get a song in an upcoming movie recently so that is a lot like winning a contest.
You songs are like slide shows... Little movies.
...sometimes the answer is "Yes", and sometimes, "No."
"...tin cup in a water pail..." Been there. Your song is full of very clear pictures. Like it.
Nice. I can hear the Beatles singing this.
Great energy. Great story.
I like it but I want to hear your words...
Very nice..."another place and another time..."
I second what Bethan said, "Sweet."
I understand. I have the same problem with a lot of old material.
Mix your voice so we can hear your lyric or include the lyric in the "about" section. I want to understand what you are saying.
Wish the voice wasn't so buried in the mix... Sounds real good.
Like it...glad you dug it back out. Sometimes we are too close to something when we first do it.
