This is a song I wrote with Rachel Goldie a few weeks ago. It's pretty much a total collaboration but Rachel wrote the music mainly and I wrote the lyrics mainly and I wrote the bridge. There was a lot of back & forth and it was an extreme pleasure to work with her on it. Check out her music here on SoundCloud and other platforms, she is truly amazing! Rachel also produced a great video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/TB7YRtqbDwo
Rachel also got an extremely good backing vocalist for this song as well. I hope everybody enjoys it.

"AM I A FOOL?"

AM I A FOOL TO LOVE YOU?
I’VE ASKED MYSELF A MILLION TIMES,
IS IT WISE FOR ME TO BE SO BLIND,  
AND PUT MY HEART BACK ON THE LINE?             
    
AM I A FOOL TO WANT YOU?
WANT YOU SO BAD IT BRINGS ME JOY,
TO HAVE YOU NEAR, TO HOLD YOU CLOSE, MY HEART'S DEPLOYED,
AM I YOUR LOVE OR JUST YOUR TOY?

STANDING IN THE RAIN FOR WAY TOO LONG,
BROKEN HEART, THE SAME OLD SONG,
SOMEHOW WITH YOU THIS TIME, I FEEL SO STRONG,
ARE YOU THE ONE OR AM I WRONG? 

AM I A FOOL TO MISS YOU? 
BELIEVE I’LL ALWAYS HAVE YOUR HEART,
WHAT IF I CLOSE MY EYES AND JUMP TOO FAR,
WILL I REGRET IT FROM THE START? 
      
STANDING IN THE RAIN FOR WAY TOO LONG,
BROKEN HEART, THE SAME OLD SONG,
SOMEHOW WITH YOU THIS TIME, I FEEL SO STRONG,
ARE YOU THE ONE OR AM I WRONG? 

I’VE LOVED AND LOST SO MANY TIMES BEFORE,
BY NOW YOU’D THINK I KNOW THE SCORE,
CAN I BELIEVE THAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE?
IS LOVE AT LAST IN STORE FOR ME? 
        
STANDING IN THE RAIN FOR WAY TOO LONG,
BROKEN HEART, THE SAME OLD SONG,
SOMEHOW WITH YOU THIS TIME, I FEEL SO STRONG,
ARE YOU THE ONE OR AM I WRONG? 

AM I A FOOL TO TRUST YOU?
I’LL CLOSE MY EYES AND MAKE BELIEVE,
THAT YOU’RE THE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION,
AM I A FOOL? I JUST MAY BE.

**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!👍😎✌🏼.

MULTI INSTRUMENTAL ONE MAN XIUS, WITH FEMME VOCALS COLLABORATION -!! NEVA!!  THANK YOU FOR FOLLOWING US AND SUPPORTING US!!

I work as a nurse in the state of Florida and I love being there for people in need. My other true passion is making music. I'm kind of an amateur but I look forward to getting better and making the best music I can.

Most the songs I do in about a day and then move on. I don't have the skill to make them radio quality yet, but I hope with collaborating with others and making my own music I will learn some skills along the way. I don't focus on perfection, I focus on emotion and try to put feeling into my music.

Also, I love to get lost in other peoples work, I will often play video games while listening to a bunch of someone else's works and commenting on the ones I like the most, not all though, don't wanna seem like a stalker, unless you like that of course.

Been feeling a little burnt out lately, so if I'm not responsive please don't take it personal. Having to work OT to keep the family afloat, so I haven't had time for music and when I do have any time I'm just too exhausted. I definitely want to make more it brings me a lot of joy to make music. At the same time it is very taxing, reaching into the depths can sometimes cause unwanted feelings to linger longer than they should. Anyway, I love all the support you have all sent my way. See ya around!

Update: Soundcloud has become too expensive and the free version is terrible. They removed a lot of my songs etc... I will be moving on to a different distributer and working on more social media outlets so I won't be on here as much. Many of my songs will be on Spotify, apple etc, I'm in the process of transitioning them. I will leave what I can with the allotted two hours. I appreciate all of you. James Geer, Miami Jeff, Steve V... If you guys are reading this I want you to know how much I appreciate you guys. You are all wonderful musicians and you shared your knowledge and music with me and I'm a better artist because of it, so, thanks!!! See yall around!!!

I'm a singer songwriter of travelling years with a little to say both emotionally and musically. 
I'm inspired by hope and the fight though the struggle in life ....
I found a home in Cornwall UK , where the creation of music is easy going...
May you find peace where you are too.

... Maybe I'm putting too much emotion into it, well... that's how I am...
