First they demonized cigarettes. Now they are demonizing alcohol. Soon we will be all zombies in front of a screen doing whatever is told  of us. 

Soap In My Glass

       This song I wrote back in 2011 and I wanted a swampy, funky, sexy, soulful, sound to it, just a slow mellow vibe to groove to in a slow dance or something. I was going for that Barry White or Marvin Gaye kind of vibe. I worked hard on the lyrics and tried to capture that first date/first dance kind of chemistry! A little spark in the dark, if you will! Charlie did a great job singing it. I had done a video for it early on but it just wasn't very well done so I remixed the song and produced a new video for it about a weeks ago. I think it sounds and looks way better now. Let me know what you think? Watch the video for a little extra excitation!😂

This song is intended for adults to enjoy, no silly love song here!😂 I was trying to write a "Strangers In The Night" type of song with a funky beat. Nothing personal and no back story for this one, just some Funky Fun for all the Dirty Dancers out there!😂 Remember you can't spell Funky without a little Fun! Charlie also played some very groovy harmonica on it. I hope everybody likes it because sometimes between heartbeats love fades away! 😍 Thanks again and take care!🙏😎✌🏼

“BETWEEN HEARTBEATS”

I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVERSATION,    
SIPPING CHAMPAIGN AND EATING CAVIAR,     
A BIT OF CASUAL FLIRTATION,      
A LITTLE TEA FOR TWO,     
A MIDNIGHT RENDEZVOUS,
              
HER EYES WERE ASKING ME PERSONAL QUESTIONS,    
GRABBING MY ATTENTION LIKE A FIREFLY,    
USING THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF DISCRETION,     
WE DANCED THROUGH THE NIGHT,   
ON A BEAM OF MOONLIGHT,
    
A ONEWAY TICKET STRAIGHT UP TO HEAVEN,         
ON A STREAKING COMET ACROSS THE SKY,  
WITH DAYBREAK CAME A LITTLE ISOLATION,    
AFTER ALL, IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DREAM,     
I KNOW IT’S NOT MUCH OF A CONSOLATION,    
BUT WHEN STRANGERS MEET,     
BETWEEN HEARTBEATS,   
THEY FADE AWAY,     
THEY FADE AWAY,     
THEY FADE AWAY……

I was eating fresh walleye and it had bones in it. So I tripped out and thought there were bones in the potatoes that were served with it.

My tracks are influenced by disco, early 80s funk and early house.  Let me take you on a journey.

**I NEVER USE A.I. IN ANY OF MY SONGS!** Hi everybody, my name is Jim and I’m a songwriter, I've written over 300 songs, I play guitar, bass, piano, and am an okay lyricist.  I play all types of music and have my own recording studio.  I use no A.I. or DAW or any computers to make my songs, all the instruments are played by me live on a multitrack studio recorder and Charlie, my vocalist, sings most of my songs and also plays the Harmonica on several tracks. I'm not a pro or a great musician but I do what I can with the tools that I have! I belong to the "Keep Humans In Music Movement" (KHMM)! We're NOT perfect but we're REAL! Thanks everyone for listening and the world needs more music now, real music made by HUMANS not MACHINES! So let's all sing a song with our own voices, please! I do not consent to any of my songs or videos being used or sampled or lifted in any way or fashion. Take care!👍😎✌🏼.
